“Mickenzie was reliable and very communicative during the time she checked in on our 2 cats. She provided lots of pictures after each visit along with updates of her visit. Our cats were very comfortable with her and very happy while we were gone. We hope she will be available to look after our cats in the future!”
About: I’ve shared my life with dogs for over 25 years and have been pet sitting for nearly as long. I have over 10 years of experience working in veterinary clinics and have ample experience with administering medications of all kinds—your fur baby’s needs are my top priority! Goose and I lead a very active lifestyle—we walk multiple times daily and spend our weekends out enjoying all that Tahoe has to offer. We always welcome adventure buddies and would love it if your pup wants to be our +1 on our next adventure! I currently work from home 3 days a week. For Tahoe Donner residents, I can take your pup for a midday stroll during the work week (M, T, F). For all other Truckee folks I am available in the evenings on the days listed above and any time on the weekends. When I am spending time with your pup their safety and happiness is my number one priority. Unless a group walk is requested, they will receive one-on-one attention and affection. Working on training or need a brush up on on-leash manners? Ask me about training walks!

“We loved working with Layla. She’s incredibly kind, responsible and invested in making sure our dog was well cared for. We highly recommend her. We had just moved to a new town and she made it easy for us to feel comfortable to do what we needed to do and not worry about a thing while we were away from our pup.”

“I’m so thankful for Caitlyn! Due to an accident I had a last minute request. I felt so much better knowing that she was going to be caring for my animals and it helped take some of the stress off of what I was dealing with. Caitlyn took great care of them and I hope to book with her again .”
“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!”

About: Everything will be done to keep your dog safe, healthy, calm, and happy while they are in my care. All visits include the following: lots of walks tracked with strava, photo updates, and extra love. Your best friend will get filtered water from fresh bowls each day, and only give your dog food and treats that you provide. You deserve what you want during your dogs stay. Consider this a vacation for your dog, and that all their needs will be taken care of so you can enjoy your time on your vacation, staycation, or day trip. Skiers and Snowboarders, drop them for the day with confidence in my expertise. Your dog is the foundation of my routine. I love to work, and cherish the opportunity to provide my high level services for your dog so that you can enjoy your time without them. All dogs get extra love in the mornings, and structure during walks. Assuming our dogs get along I’ll let them play. If needed, I’ll keep my guy from being too friendly, and I am prepared to keep dogs separated if they aren’t the best fit to be together. But I also limit how many dogs I take at once, to keep things easy on me.
About: I grew up with 2-3 100+ pound dogs in my home at a time growing up. I'm used to loving and respecting animals the way they are meant to be treated. Also I'm willing to DISCOUNT SERVICE if you pay cash! I currently have a job that makes my travel but when I'm at home I have a lot of time to take pups on their much needed walks. I try to give all animals the same respect I would give to humans. I'm used to dealing with dogs that can get a little overwhelmed in public, so I feel like I'm well versed in ways to help comfort your pup while get their daily exercise!
“Christie was a great kitty sitter! I can tell when I got home and my kitty was relaxed , that she had good care . Christie checked in with me daily and was dependable with her visits . Thank you for helping us feel at ease while we were gone :)”
About: I have been caring for animals since I was 11 years old; including family, friends, neighbors and referrals. I grew up in a family that always had pets and have lived with others with pets as well. I am very comfortable and knowledgeable of animals of many ages and types. I have assisted with puppy training and working on commands and discipline and also cared for senior dogs who need extra attention and assistance. I am currently attending nursing school ~3-4 days/week and have availability in the evenings, weekends and some days to assist with pet care needs. My schedule is flexible outside of clinical hours and am excited to spend time with your animals and assist with your needs. I am available for short check-ins, walks, overnights, and weekends you are away. My ideal setting for pet care would be at a client's home due to already having one at home. I am open to caring for pets at my home once we have determined that our animals would be comfortable with one another and get along well! My house has a fenced in yard with lots of space for activity and play time for your pets. I have experience with house sitting and dog sitting concurrently whether for a few hours, few days or weeks. I am respectful, clean and responsible and follow instructions and client preferences.
“Thank you Evan! 🐾”

Averyl L.
“Averyl has cared for my pets several times. She is punctual and from the moment she meets your animals it's evident how much she genuinely cares for them as if they were her own. She is adamant about ensuring they get plenty of exercise and are taken care of. She even pays close attention and took our pup to the vet, after consulting with us, one time when she noticed his behavior seemed a little off. We would have her come watch our animals anytime and would recommend her services to others.”
