About: Hi there! I'm Alena, and I recently moved to Lake Tahoe after living in Florida for over a decade. Originally from Russia I've always been surrounded by dogs, from growing up with them to always having one by my side (my Golden Retriever, Charlie, keeps me busy!). We love staying active whether it's at the dog park, the lake or exploring local trails. I'd be thrilled to help keep your pup happy and active while you're away! I am taking a break from a busy work schedule and looking for my next career turn. At the moment I am fully available for you and your pet. I always have leash on when going outside and always have my eyes and ears open for any distractions that can trigger the dog. I have a reliable transportation in case of emergencies.

“Faith took amazing care of my two cats for week while I was out of town. From the start, communication was clear, prompt, and reassuring. it She sent daily updates and photos, which really helped ease our mind while we were away. Both of our cats warmed up to her quickly and seem super relaxed the entire time! If you’re looking for someone reliable, kind, and attentive to look after your pets, she’s the right one!”


“Great experience. Tammy and Ashli communicated with us regarding dropoff and pickup. Our Miniature schnauzer loved playing with their golden retrievers and had his first exposure to cats--which went well.”


“Vivian took such great care of my dachshund Casper. He’s a little shy and higher anxiety in new situations, but he seemed comfortable with her and her dogs and settled in quickly. It gave me such peace of mind knowing he was in caring hands while I was away. Highly recommend Vivian as a very kind, caring and communicative dog sitter!”


“Kate is so wonderful! My baby had so much fun playing with hers. She accepted our super last minute reservation. And sent photos throughout the day. I would definitely book with her again.”


About: I have spent years as a foster, raising rescue dogs from puppy to adulthood. I am a patient, loving hooman to all dogs and a current dog mom to 3. I have a flexible work-from-home schedule and live locally to awesome hiking trails for walks. I provide full-time or part-time care suited to your needs. I have a fenced yard and three friendly dogs who love to play and nap. I am flexible and trustworthy for tending to your home-based needs.

“Just amazing people. I needed someone to watch my little buddy last minute due to a tragedy and they were more than accommodating. They kept me updated everyday and even made an adjustment so somebody other than myself could pick up my little buddy. Just a great experience all around. I will definitely use their services again and would highly recommend!”


“Elvia did a great job caring for our two pups while we took a last minute family trip. She made sure to check in with pictures and updates during our trip away. We will definitely work with her in the future.”


“Fantastic. Nettie is very good with dogs and my Tilly probably got more attention and exercise that could give her. I've learned that Nettie hikes daily, so if your dog loves to hike, Nettie is the one, plus the absolute love your dog will receive. She has a nice backyard, so there's plenty of room for running around.”


About: I’ve had pets almost my whole life, I’ve had bunnies, birds, fish, dogs. I love animals & enjoy taking care of them. I’ve done house sitting/pet sitting, I can do light chores if needed also. I currently have a full time & part time job but, i get an hour lunch to go check on your pet. I am off Saturdays & most of Sunday. I will most definitely follow instructions to keep your pet safe. I have housesat before & don’t bring anyone along or invite anyone to your home.

“Phinn had the greatest time with Tess & Chris! This was his first boarding stay with them and I couldn’t have imagined it going any better. I received daily updates with pictures of him on walks and playing in their yard — he looked so happy! I am incredibly thankful to have found them to look after my best guy!”


“Keri is a very attentive, caring and a great host to our pets. My family and I felt very at ease knowing Keri was caring and loving to our pets. We appreciated the updates with pictures and videos of our cat and dog. I would use Keri again and highly recommend her.”


“Choi was a fantastic sitter for our puppy! She took him on several walks, kept us well informed and took lots of photos for us. We felt incredibly comfortable throughout his overnight stay under her care!”


“We found Wendy at the last minute before our trip over Christmas. Rosie and Allie had a wonderful time. Wendy sent pictures and updates while we were away that eased our minds. Rosie is 16 yo and fragile so it was good to know she was doing well.”


“Amazing service. Amazing care. I’m so thankful we chose Trina and her family to watch our precious baby boy Sue. I got multiple updates throughout the entire week and I never once doubted Sue was getting all the loves and security. ❤️ I will always choose their family for our furry friends needs and am so thankful we found them. Trina is the one to book with if you want your fur babies loved, played with, walked, adored and treated like a member of their family while you’re away. Thank you guys so much!!!”


“Melissa sent a plentiful amount of daily pictures to assure us that the dogs were having a great time. The dogs were very happy to be at Melissa’s house. Melissa was great at communicating and very flexible as well. I will definitely be booking with her again.”


“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.”
