About: I provide highly capable, active care for mountain dogs. My shepherd maremma mix, Lumi, and I hit the trails daily - a flexible schedule finishing up my Master's degree means I have plenty of time for dedicated supervision. We have a fully fenced yard and are a quick walk to the forest. For your absolute peace of mind, I hold an active Wilderness EMT certification and my daily trail kit includes a canine-specific tourniquet. Very flexible as I wrap up grad school. We long walk early in the morning to beat the crowds, ensuring the doogo(s) gets open space for off-leash exercise when the environment is safest from distraction. Lumi is a solid regulator and grew up teasing coyotes on an unfenced 15acres. I carry a rescue sling. We'll keep a good watch.
About: Dogs have been both my profession and my passion. My background includes working with elite K9s in narcotics detection, explosive detection, apprehension, and executive protection. These experiences taught me how to understand canine behavior, build trust, reinforce training, and safely handle dogs in a variety of situations. What sets me apart is my ability to combine genuine care with professional training experience. Whether your dog is a highly active working breed, a puppy learning good habits, a senior needing patience and support, or a beloved family pet, I provide structured, attentive care tailored to their individual needs. My goal is to keep your pet happy, safe, mentally engaged, and well cared for while you're away. I am on your clock. I understand the importance of consistency, exercise, structure, and positive interaction. I make time every day to provide dependable care, walks, playtime, enrichment, and companionship. I work hard to maintain your pet's normal routine so they feel comfortable, secure, and stress-free in your absence. Safety and trust are at the center of everything I do. My experience handling both working K9s and family pets has taught me how to recognize behavior changes, assess situations, and respond appropriately to each dog's needs. I provide a calm, structured environment with plenty of attention, exercise, and positive reinforcement. Whether caring for your pet in your home or mine, I follow your instructions closely and treat every animal as if they were my own. I believe pet owners deserve peace of mind, so I provide reliable communication, updates, and photos throughout the stay. Your pet's comfort, security, and well-being will always be my highest priorities.
About: I’ve spent most of my life around dogs and understand that every pup has their own personality, pace, and needs. I raised my own dog for nearly 18 years after rescuing him, and that experience taught me patience, consistency, and how to truly care for a dog through every stage of life. Beyond that, I’ve helped care for dogs of all sizes and temperaments—from walking large, high-energy huskies to spending extended time with senior dogs who need a slower, more attentive approach. I focus on creating a calm, safe, and positive experience so your dog feels comfortable and cared for while you’re away. My goal is simple: to treat your dog like they’re my own and give you peace of mind knowing they’re in good hands. I work from home, which allows me to maintain a flexible and consistent schedule throughout the day. I’m available for morning, afternoon, and evening walks or check-ins, and I can easily adapt to your dog’s routine. Because I’m home most of the time, your dog won’t experience long gaps without care or attention. I do step out occasionally for the gym or quick errands, but these are brief and planned around any bookings. When appropriate, I also enjoy bringing dogs along for safe outdoor time like relaxed walks or fresh air. My goal is to provide dependable, attentive care so your dog feels comfortable and you feel confident. I focus on creating a calm, safe, and structured environment where dogs feel secure and well cared for. In my home, I live in a single-story house with a fully fenced yard that allows for safe outdoor time and easy supervision. The space has previously been home to multiple dogs, so it’s well-suited and comfortable for them. I always prioritize safety by monitoring interactions, keeping a clean environment, and following any specific instructions you provide. In a client’s home, I stick closely to your dog’s established routine to reduce stress and maintain consistency. My approach is patient, attentive, and built on trust—treating every dog as if they were my own.
“Anton was amazing. Not only did he take care of my free small for kids. I’m short notice but he kept me updated and let me know how sweet they all were. Even better when the fur kids got home they were so excited to be around him and definitely fell in love. There were a few little whimpers once they saw him leave. Anton is definitely a repeat sitter and has gained my trust very rapidly. Thank you very much for taking care of my little fur family members.”
About: I’ve always had a special love for animals and truly enjoy caring for them as if they were my own. I’m an active, outdoorsy person who loves spending time in nature, whether that’s going for walks, exploring trails, or simply enjoying some quality time with a furry companion. I’m responsible, attentive, and understand how important it is to have someone you trust caring for your pets and home. My goal is to make every pet feel safe, loved, and comfortable while their family is away. As a private chef and real estate professional, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to accommodate pet care throughout the week. I love being outdoors, hiking, and enjoying everything Lake Tahoe has to offer, so having a furry companion along for the adventure is always a bonus! I’m happy to work around your pet’s routine and provide plenty of attention, exercise, and companionship. With a background in private estate and property management, I understand the importance of trust, responsibility, and treating someone’s home with the utmost respect. I take pride in providing a safe, loving, and comfortable environment for every pet in my care. Whether it’s following specific feeding instructions, administering routine care, enjoying outdoor adventures, or simply providing cuddles and companionship, I treat every animal as if they were my own. I also believe in keeping owners updated with photos and messages so they can relax knowing their pets are in good hands.
“Breanna and Dan were the ultimate dog sitters! Their home is close to beautiful trails, marshes and beaches so it’s like your pup is on a vacation of their own in Tahoe. They took Roo on multiple adventures on her short 24 hour stay and consistently sent me photos and updates. They were very quick to get back to me and coordinating our schedules and booking was super smooth. Roo seemed very at home, comfortable and loved on, I would highly recommend Breanna and Dan as your dog sitters. I will be booking with them for any future Tahoe adventures.”
“Patty and Randy were the absolute best! They were so kind and i knew immediately that my dog would be taken care of and loved while I was gone. They kept me updated and were so accommodating with pick up and drop off times! I would recommend them over and over!”
“Jennifer was a wonderful care-taker for our 60lb Vizsla. She was accommodating, communicative, and thoughtful, and cared for George as if he was her own. She made sure that as an active dog, he was adequately stimulated, and she made sure he was comfortable in his foreign environment while we were away. In addition, she made sure to send us updates in a nonintrusive yet fully transparent way. As dog parents, we felt calm and confident that George was in safe and loving hands. This is all we could wish for while away from our pup! Would 10/10 recommend. Thanks, Jennifer!”
“I'm so glad I found Gina. We wanted to make a short weekend getaway to Tahoe with our kids but we didn't want to leave our pup back home. Knowing we were still close by if needed gave us peace of mind and we had a great time knowing that our pup was safe and having fun. Gina was lovely and quick to respond to my request. We're already looking forward to returning and now I know who to reach out to.”

“Our dog Ruby took to Zoe right away. Zoe was flexible enough for us to pick up Ruby to take her with us for part of our day. When we had to return her to Zoe for the night, Ruby ran right into her house with no reservation, making our stay very relaxed and worry free.”
“We keep booking Kelly as she is wonderful to both of our dogs. She sends lots of pics, lots of updates and very flexible and accommodating. She takes them for hikes, makes sure they each get play time. The dogs love her.”
“Maddie was THE BEST! She watched my 13 week old puppy while I had to go away for the first time and totally put my mind at ease.

You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
99% of sitters in Fountain Place can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays. Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, this may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.
During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Fountain Place home-away-from-home, we recommend packing:
- Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts.
- Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you.
- Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favorite hang-out spots in your Fountain Place.
Tip: You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.

Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
You and your Fountain Place sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of you—and your dog. Most sitters offer flexible times for drop-off and pick-up but the easiest way to confirm those times will be through in-app messaging. Confirm your arrival time the day of pick-up and drop-off can also help keep the process smooth and organized.
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee, which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page.
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in CA ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your dog to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your dog is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
Adding another pup to the pack? Most sitters and walkers offer a reduced rate for additional dogs. You’ll find these exact rates listed under the "Services" tab on any sitter's profile. Since every dog is unique, final pricing may vary depending on the level of care required.
