Dog Walking Emerald Bay

About: I have a reliable track record of watching pets for family and friends, including watching dogs who require daily exercise and attention. I love cats and know how important it is that owners have peace of mind when leaving their animals for a vacation! I am currently working part time and hoping to find some local pet-sitting gigs! I am available for daily and drop in visits and find most people in South Lake Tahoe have at least one pet, including myself, and I am available to help give care as needed. I am currently available for visits to your home for pet watching duties as needed while you are away. I am detail-oriented, very reliable, and care that your animals are given thorough attention :)

About: I have been caring for dogs for over 40 years. I will spend all of my time with your dog, hiking, swimming, playing in the snow and cuddling. I am interested in boarding your dog while you enjoy Lake Tahoe. I live near the lake so there will be a daily visits walking along the shores. I will provide a safe and clean environment for your dog. When we hike, swim, play in the snow, they will be on a leash. I will always be very careful with your dog.

About: I’ve grown up surrounded by dogs my entire life, which means caring for four-legged family members is second nature to me. As my family and friend’s resident dog sitter, I have hands on experience with pups of all shapes, sizes, and personalities from high energy giants to tiny couch potatoes. I am passionate about keeping dogs active and healthy, so you can count on me to provide plenty of outdoor time and engaging walks. I look forward to meeting your furry friend and providing them with a safe, fun, and loving environment while you're away! As a full-time remote worker, my schedule is highly flexible! Pet care fits seamlessly into my day, allowing me to offer reliable windows for walks and drop-ins. My 'portable' office also makes me a great fit for house sitting, as I can work right from your home and keep your pet company. Weekends are equally open and flexible for whatever your pet needs! I believe the best environment for a pet is one that closely mirrors their usual routine. Whether I am house sitting or dropping in, I strictly follow your specific guidelines for feeding and house rules. During house sittings and drop-ins, I respect your home as if it were my own—keeping things clean, secure, and locked up. When we are out on walks, your dog will always be kept on a secure, standard leash, and I maintain a strict 'no greeting' policy with unfamiliar dogs to prevent any unpredictable interactions. I am deeply observant of body language to ensure your pet is happy, comfortable, and never stressed. I also believe that communication builds trust, so you can always expect timely photo updates and detailed Rover cards after every visit!

“Aru looks forward to his walks! Jeff is amazing and I appreciate his willingness to alter his walking schedule as my son is visiting this weekend. I feel safe and confident letting Aru walk with Jeff! I would feel comfortable referring him to all my friends with animals!”

About: What I would say sets me apart from other walkers/sitters, is my care and attention to each dog’s unique needs. I have experience with both puppies and senior dogs, and adjust my care style accordingly. I have always had a passion for animals, and making sure every pet feels safe, happy, and well cared for. I’m currently working part-time, so my schedule is extremely flexible! I am available almost everyday, all day to care for your pups! I just recently moved up to South Lake for college and am living in the dorms, so I’m trying to save up some extra money doing what I love! On walks, I focus on keeping pets safe, comfortable, and happy. I always stay alert to surroundings, and avoid busy or unsafe areas. I always make sure to bring water on longer walks, watch for signs of tiredness or overheating, and give them time to sniff and explore. I also reinforce good leash behavior with gentle guidance and positive encouragement. Each walk is a mix of exercise, care, and fun.

About: Hello! My name is Alora, and I’ve been an animal lover my whole life. I’ve spent the past year working as a vet tech at a local veterinary hospital, so I’m very comfortable around dogs and cats. If your animal is every hurt or sick, I am qualified to take care, and watch over them. I’m used exercising, cleaning up after, and giving medications to animals. I’m also a dog mom to a black and white Mutt named Ray. As far as exercising your pet, it can range from short or long walks, trail walks, runs, or playing with toys, depending on what they need/like. House sitting will consist of me keeping your pet company, feeding, and all the exercise they need. If needed I can spend the night, or if you prefer I can come back in the morning. I am currently a bartender so I can be available to take your animals out during the day while you work! I love to get outside and hike, bike, and go to the beach, so if you have an adventurous dog I can cater to its needs. I have a fenced in back yard that your dog can run and play in, as well as a few Roomate’s who love dogs as well.

About: I have years of hands-on experience caring for dogs and cats of all ages, including puppies, seniors, and pets with special needs. I’m comfortable with feeding routines, medication, crate training, and keeping pets active, happy, and safe. I have a very flexible schedule, which allows me to adjust my day around the needs of the pets I’m caring for. Whether it’s early morning walks, midday drop-ins, or evening visits, I’m able to make pet care a priority throughout the week. When pets stay in my home, I keep their routine as familiar as possible. I follow their feeding schedule, provide plenty of potty breaks, and make time for daily walks and play. I keep a clean, pet-safe space and offer lots of companionship throughout the day. I monitor behavior, offer enrichment activities, and ensure they have a comfortable place to rest. I also send regular photos and updates so owners know their pet is happy and relaxed.

Whether they’re just needing a few pets, feedings, plays, cuddles, beach visits or hikes I’m your guy.

About: As a lover of animals, I find working with dogs to have purpose and meaning. I love witnessing the spirit and personalities of each individual dog and getting to know them and their needs. I have cared for English Springer Spaniels, German Shepherds, Huskies, Vizslas, Basset Hounds, and Mixed Breeds. Presently, I live in a quiet neighborhood adjacent to a variety of trails and a dog park. Typically I like to take dogs for long walks (2-6 miles), however I also take into consideration their personal abilities (age, size, health, energy levels etc). I do have my own border collie mix named Stevie Nicks! She is 7 years old and my running buddy! I do have a full time job but also have flexibility with my schedule. I am very easily able to meet the requests of pet owners. I care for pets in their home as I would in my own home. For house sitting, I do aim to leave your home in better condition than when I arrived. I frequently launder linens, wash dishes, sweep, vacuum and mop before leaving a care site.

About: Hello! My name is Jaclyn. I’m a local animal lover with a passion for caring for pets of all kinds. Whether it's going on long walks with dogs, cuddling up with cats, or making sure smaller animals get the attention they need, I truly enjoy spending time with animals and helping them feel safe and loved. I currently work from home, so your pet will never be left unsupervised. I previously worked as a veterinary assistant at a local clinic, where I gained hands-on experience caring for cats, dogs, birds, rodents, and reptiles. I’m trained in safe handling techniques and experienced in administering medication to animals with a wide range of needs and temperaments. I was also known as the cat whisperer and understand how to respect their space while building trust and comfort. I’ve had animals in my life since childhood and currently share my home with two Australian Shepherd's and two kitties. Thank you for taking the time to learn more about me. I’d love the opportunity to care for your pet, whether furry, feathered, or scaly, as if they were my own! I currently work remotely so it is easy for me to fit walks and potty breaks into my daily routine. There are some days I am out of the house for events but I would make sure you as a pet parent were aware and proper arrangements were made. I have a fenced yard with plenty of space for your dog to roam. My dogs are very active and will provide a full day of play.

I’m very active so I’m able to take your dogs on walks and play , I’m even experienced in walking cats! (As long as they’re leashed)

About: As a mom of a husky malamute, I know how important quality care is for your dog & will treat your dog like my own! :-) I am on summer break so have open availability for dog sitting. I love to run, walk, hike, and am happy to include your dog on those adventures if it fits your dog’s lifestyle. I have a fenced yard with lots of space to roam and plenty of shade. Also happy to crate your dog if that is best.

About: I've been a dog mom for over 15 years. I most recently lost my best friend Izzy, a big Loverador, after 12 years in 2020, and have since missed the joy a dog brings into the home. While I am not quite ready to adopt again, I am excited to take this time to help you in caring for your best friend the same way I would expect for anyone watching my own. I work full time from home and am pretty flexible in my daily routine. Breaks often include walks to either one of the nearby parks or open space USFS land; all within less than a mile of the property. I have a large unfenced yard with a comfortable lead for a bit of off-leash fun. I do have an older cat (15) who was raised by labs and is very comfortable around other dogs - not cats. Please no known aggresive dogs to cats.

“So grateful I found Adam here on Rover! I needed a last minute dog walker and he was able to book the same day. I have a high energy dog and he was kind and knowledgeable to offer to run her - which she needs and loves! I’ll definitely book again.”

About: I have experience with a broad range of dogs from miniature aussies to pit bulls and Great Danes. I’m happy to take your dogs on longer hikes and adjust care to their energy levels and needs. I also have experience caring for reptiles, felines, goats, and chickens. I’m currently working part time locally in South Lake Tahoe while attending school online, and I have a flexible schedule for dog walking and pet care! I will discuss care expectations prior to pet sitting / dog walking to make sure I understand the animal’s behavior on leash or with other dogs. Typically in home care involves feeding, light cleaning, spending time with animal in the yard (if available) and dog walking.

About: Dogs, cats, miniature donkeys, turtles, turkeys and chickens — I’ve cared for animals since I was a kid! I am the friend that wins over pets that play hard to get. I’m friendly, personable and love spending time playing with animals outside. I am looking to incorporate pets into my daily activities. I’m a very active person and go out to trail run, bike, swim, surf, etc everyday. I also work all over the city and am often in different necks of the wood. My afternoons are free to walk doggies and give them love. When going outside, I keep my eyes on pets or put a leash on them (depending on your preference). We are always prepared with water, snacks, toys and love.
