Pet Sitting in Ponderosa Palisades

About: I’ve taken care of pets for years and grew up around them. I love animals and am glad to take care of them while their owners are busy. I have a pretty flexible schedule and have a lot of time to take care of your pets even if it’s at the last minute. I am used to many different pets and let them come to me and smell me to get used to me. I can walk them, and put them back in their crate.

“Mickenzie is so great with my pets. She goes above and beyond for them and really is so helpful when I'm gone across the country, I really can count on her. She sends me pictures so I feel comfortable and keeps me updated.”

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!

“Missy was so easy to work with and we were able to enjoy our trip knowing our dog was well taken care of. Missy stopped by a couple of times a day to feed, water, and play with our dog. Her updates were great. She is extremely dependable and responsible. Our dog loved her!”

About: I am excited to offer my services as a dedicated and compassionate pet sitter and dog walker. With a genuine love for animals and experience caring for a variety of pets, I am confident in my ability to provide attentive and reliable care tailored to each pet’s unique needs. Having grown up with pets and cared for friends’ and neighbors’ animals, I understand how important it is for pet owners to have peace of mind when they are away. Whether it’s a leisurely walk around the neighborhood, playtime, feeding, or administering medications, I am committed to ensuring pets feel safe, happy, and loved. I pride myself on punctuality, responsibility, and clear communication with pet owners to keep them updated on their furry friends’ wellbeing. I would love the opportunity to meet you and your pets to discuss how I can help make life easier for you and more enjoyable for them. I am a registered EMT currently working for boreal as a Mountain Patroller. I have many hobbies after work and hanging out with awesome animals is one of them that keeps me grounded and looking forward to the future. I take in to account all of your pets needs and wants. I understand each of our four legged friends have different personalities and expectations their humans have for them as well. And I do my best to make that happen for all parties involved.

“Grace is an excellent sitter. She is highly communicative, checking in regularly and sending photos of my cat, Hera, while I was out of town. Grace is responsible, reliable and always on time. I would not hesitate to recommend Grace for your pet sitting needs and will definitely be using her services again. Thank you Grace!”

“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.”

Lindsay A.

“Sarah is awesome! Highly recommend her services, she’s professional, reliable, friendly, and was super comfortable creating a connection with Fig. Thanks Sarah!”

Carolyn M.

“Amara is awesome! She goes above and beyond - always tries to play and engage with Kiki, and even cleaned litter boxes when not explicitly asked on a 1 night drop in feeding.”

Andrea L.

“Thanks for the pictures. Great job taking care of Nutter Butter!”

Joe J.

“I can't recommend Temma enough! She took wonderful care of my dog, Stella, who is blind and requires extra attention and daily medication. Temma went above and beyond, stopping by three times a day to make sure Stella was comfortable, safe, and cared for. I originally had someone else lined up who canceled last minute, but Temma graciously stepped in and completely put my mind at ease. She was reliable, attentive, and genuinely caring. I'm so grateful for her help and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone they can truly trust with their pets!”

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've had my own dogs, cats, horses and chickens. I've been pet sitting for a few years now. I try to go on as many walks as possible and even bring them to work if the family is ok with it. I love animals of all ages! I have a full-time job but I can work from home 3 days a week. So I have plenty of free time to go out for walks or simply let them outside. I will make sure they get the attention they need. If they are outside I won't leave them out after dark on their own. Lock all doors for other furry visitors. Make sure they have a comfortable bed. Sometimes sleep together if it's ok with the parents. Have lots of toys and time for walks and play.

“Awesome help Would hire again!”

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.

About: Hi there, I’m Olivia and can’t wait to meet your fur family! My parents had a sweet spot for rescues and adopted dogs from shelters throughout my childhood. I have experience caring for a variety of breeds/sizes, ages, personalities, and levels of health. Over the past 15 years I have also sat for family, friends, and neighbors. I work remotely for a local company so my availability is pretty flexible and will allow me to be with your pup(s) as often as needed. Safety is my top priority. They will be leashed for potty breaks if there isn’t a fenced yard at home and on walks, especially while exploring busy trails and beaches.
