“I scheduled Jackson at the last minute when our family had an emergency. He was wonderful!! Jackson had great communication and took care of the cats without any issues. I would 100% recommend him to others and use him for pet care in the future.”
“Mickenzie did a great job watching taking care of Socks and Kitt last week. She made sure that they were feed during their usual schedule and cleaned their litter boxes twice a day. She even took photos for each visit. Socks seemed to be very comfortable around her. Kitt is still shy, but that is how she has always been around other people. I would be happy to have her take care of them while I am out of town again.”
“Second time having Amara drop in to feed and spend a little time/play with cat. Her communication and care is very much appreciated. I highly recommend her and will reach out when I need sitting in the future.”
“Attentive with instructions. Doggies seemed happy when we returned from our outing.”
About: Hi, I'm Sam! I was born and raised in Portland, Oregon and have been back and forth from there and the Tahoe area for about three years now. This time around, I moved to Truckee in November and plan to be here long term. I have owned pets my entire life and have much experience with other people's pets as well. At home, I raised my current dog Margo from a puppy, tended to my previous cats and dogs when they got old, and have had experience fostering and then later adopting an aggressive and unpredictable rescue dog. I started walking and pet sitting my neighbor's dogs at the age of 12. I have house/pet sat for cats and dogs of every kind, including old dogs who have accidents in the house and skittish dogs who are afraid of people. I also have experience administering insulin shots to cats. In college, I continued my dog walking and house/pet sitting, and this past summer 2024, I spent almost every day pet/house sitting. Most recently, I adopted a bunny, so I've been caring for her and now have experience with small animals as well. I love animals more than anything in this world and am so excited to meet all the adorable pets in this area. I am currently working at Sugar Bowl Ski Resort, however I do not know what job I will have after this one ends in the spring, so I will keep you posted! I am able to provide any service the pet might need, including medications, baths, any special routines or extra attention, I am able to do and accommodate it all. I can also take your pets on many fun outings, short or long, depending on their needs!
“Lindi is wonderful and we couldn't be happier with our first Rover experience! Our boys love her and we love knowing they're getting lots of attention when we can't be at home. We will definitely be booking with her again... and again... and again! Thank you!”
About: With a lifelong love for pets and years of hands-on experience, I provide tailored care that feels just like home. Whether it's long walks in familiar parks, cozy cuddles on the couch, or engaging playtime, your dog will receive the same affectionate attention I've given my own pets throughout my life. I work from home all day so any pet will hang out with me and follow my dog's care schedule. I take my pup with me everywhere unless it's a safety issue (e.g. too hot to park in the grocery parking lot), so dogs are not left alone for long. Lunch time typically includes a trip to Meadow Park or Riverview Sports Park. Dogs are family. I have furniture with performance fabrics that wicks away dirt easily. I have a rear deck with a dog hammock for pups to enjoy the sun, or they can move into the treed area on my property. A dog run can be set up as well so pups can have plenty of outdoor time. In the summers, we do doggy play dates at the Tahoe Donner ski hill, which is a short 5 minute walk from my house. I frequent the Legacy Trail and Donner Lake.
“Brittany did fantastic taking care of my cat while I was out. Thank you so much!”
“Karen has been fantastic. Waded through waist deep snow to get to my cat in our house. Kept me updated about the snow storm, including power outages. She went above and beyond what was expected. A+ service.”
“Kristina did a terrific job! I would happily book her again and recommend her most highly!”
“Sarah is awesome! Highly recommend her services, she’s professional, reliable, friendly, and was super comfortable creating a connection with Fig. Thanks Sarah!”
“Temma took care of our two kitties while we were away for six days and I would def use her services again. She was communicative, followed the written instructions, and went above and beyond to help out with an errand for our dogs that were boarding at the pet lodge in town. We very much appreciated her help!”
“Thank you for looking after Lily, fantastic job, would recommend to friends and family!”
About: Hi! My name is Katie and I’m a big animal lover and have been around dogs and cats my whole life. I’m energetic and love long walks, playing fetch, and giving belly rubs. I have 7+ years of experience caring for pets. I enjoy taking long walks outside, and I’m comfortable walking more than one dog at a time. I have experience with all-sized dogs, ranging in all ages, and from different breeds. I provide photos during my time with your pet and will keep you updated. Thanks and I look forward to hearing from you soon 🐾 I'm a teacher and will be at school from 9 am - 3:30 pm. I teach yoga every Tuesday evening as well. I have weekends off. With this schedule, I get all holidays and breaks off as well. While pet sitting, I give attention to each pet I'm caring for. I'm a sucker for doggie cuddles, long walks, fetch, and just taking it easy. I'll make sure your pet gets enough potty breaks and exercise while under my care.
About: I've always had pets (dogs and cats) growing up that I've trained and taken care. I also have my own pup who is now 14. My dog has had special needs over the years- so I'm always very attentive to her as well as my surroundings, and I bring this to any animal I care for. I've professionally walked and cared for other dogs, and am seeking to do so again because I enjoy it, and it compliments my day job as a software engineer well! I work remotely and am currently between jobs, so I have a flexible schedule. I exercise every day, so I’m able to take animals out during that time, or am always happy to get an extra walk in. I own a home that I rent out, so I understand the trust and respect needed for this process. I am flexible and happy to adapt to your pets needs and schedule, and will care for them as if they were my own.
About: Hi, my name is Sam and I have over 10 years of experience pet sitting! I mostly pet sit for dogs and cats of many backgrounds - fostered kittens and retired race greyhounds, energetic dogs to elderly dogs and cats. I have experience administering medications and shots for diabetic dogs. I worked seasonly on a farm for 4 years in Vermont before moving to the area and I fed/cared for chickens and alpacas on the field. Lastly, I have experience caring for reptiles - I had a gecko and amphibians for 17 years. I teach in Truckee Monday-Friday 9-3:15pm. I have time to care for your pets in the mornings before 9am and anytime after 3:15pm. I have flexibility during my lunch break that is between 12-12:45. Weekends I am more flexible about timing. I am a big outdoor enthusiast - mountain biker, skier, hiker, runner. If you need a dog walker or sitter, I would love for your dog to come join in on the fun! But I can walk your pet outside in the neighborhood if you just need a drop in. If you have a routine for your pet/s, I am happy to stick with that to help them feel comfortable and at home. If you need help with overnights, I am happy to discuss the length of days needed. I will send photos and videos while you are away! *Unfortunately at this time, I am not taking house sitting/overnight requests at this time. I am booked March 30-May 27th. I am available after then*
“Carissa was great! The dogs loved her and she was awesome to work with! Highly recommended!”
About: I’ve always had dogs growing up and learned how to care for them. I volunteered at the humane society in Truckee. I have worked for various boarding facilities and have experience with handling all breeds, all shapes, all sizes of dogs! I’m a full-time mom and I am looking to provide supplemental income for my family! I’ve had dogs ever since I was born and I volunteered at the humane society in Truckee as well as worked at the various dog boarding facilities. I love dogs and I have experience with small and large breeds. I would care for an animal as if they were my own with love, compassion, attention to detail, trustworthiness, and expert ability. I know the importance of safety and would be extremely respectful of my clients fur babies.
About: I have 2 Crested Geckos, and have lived with 4 different friends who owned cats. Within the last year I have walked coworkers dogs countless times and have dog-sat for them as well. I have pet-sat for coworkers in their homes from one night, up to one month. I have also volunteered at the Truckee Humane Society for about a year as well. I have flexible but consistent work hours that allow me to create a routine to take care of your pets. I love going for walks with dogs as well as hanging out and giving both dogs and cats the pets they deserve. I care for pets based off of what they need and what they ask of me. I listen to body language to understand what they need. I am content giving pets their space, or giving them all of the pets they want. I also pay extra attention to bathroom cues to limit accidents within the house.
About: Raised on a cattle ranch, I have had experience with animals large and small my whole life. I joined Rover about a few years ago, shortly after my 120 pound lab of 9 years passed away, I wanted to be able to be around dogs and be able to be active by going on hikes and out to dog beach, but wasn't quite ready to bring to a new puppy into my life. I have house sat for many clients over the years: friends, co-workers & students families. I love to go on long walks, am comfortable administering medication if needed & providing lots of love for your dear furry friend(s). It’s been 7 years since I brought my lab puppy Pilot home & he absolutely loves having other dogs come to stay and/or join in on our daily adventures. Since covid hit he especially loves that I am a work from home dog mom now and we take a considerable amount of additional walks/hikes/bike rides each day. I would welcome anyone who is looking for Daily walks/adventures as well as longer term pet sitting to reach out as I would love to watch your furry friends. My dog Pilot would love to meet more friends to play with. Please note: I am unable to accommodate pets with any type of aggressive tendencies. I work full time from home, so your pet will be cared for and with the company of myself and my lab for their entire stay. I have a huge property with a doggie door and live near a variety of trails and lakes that can be accessed right out our door for our exercising adventures

“Sydney is a responsible, caring human who has a deep love for animals! She has dog-sat my active Tahoe dog, Ellie, multiple times without a hitch. Ellie is ecstatic to stay with Sydney and the peace of mind that my best friend is in good hands is priceless. Sydney leads an active lifestyle - so it’s a perfect fit if your dog needs walking or regular exercise! That said, her home is tidy and peaceful for those pets that prefer a calmer, more sedentary space. I am so grateful for Sydney, and if you hire her, you will be too!”
16. Samantha M.
“I highly recommend Sam as a pet sitter/walker on Rover! They are incredibly responsible, attentive, and genuinely love animals. Sam has watched my dog several times, and I’ve always been impressed by how well they handle everything—from feeding and walking to providing updates and photos throughout the day. My dog, who can be quite the diva, warmed up to Sam right away, which says a lot about Sam’s calm and caring nature. I fully trust Sam to care for any pet with the same level of attention and affection, and I know they’ll do a fantastic job for anyone on Rover!”

19. Meghan S.
“Meghan exceeded all expectations as a pet sitter for my guinea pigs. She followed instructions perfectly, arrived on time, kept everything tidy, and showed genuine compassion. Her attention to my guinea pigs’ body language was impressive, and she kept me updated with thoughtful, timely reports and photos. Truly caring and reliable—I highly recommend her!”
