Availability

I work from home one day a week (Wednesdays) and am home every weekend. However I work close by, have a flexible schedule and am able to run home when and if I need to. I have a dog door to a back deck with a few steps down to a fenced in (4' tall fence) dog run for potty breaks when they need them if not being crated.

Any special needs would be great to know ahead of time. If they are nervous, anxious, any kind of aggression, etc. I can treat a dog however they need to be treated.

A typical day

I have a long trail at the end of my block that I often take dogs down to explore. I am also 5 minutes from Secline beach in kings beach or 10 mins from the dog beach in incline village.

Pet care experience

I am always the one my friends call when they need someone to watch their pups. Dogs absolutely love me and we always have a great time together. I am reliable and experienced with all sizes and breeds. I have had rescue dogs most of my life so know how to deal with any "issues" that may arise. I have lots of experience in dog training and obedience. I have a huge heart for all animals and will treat your pups like I treat my own - basically my little 4 legged furry kids.

Kate was a fantastic find! I was in Tahoe and needed a sitter so I could ski for two days. Denali loved being there and got some dog friends to hang out with too. Will use her again when I go back to Tahoe!

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
