“Melissa was great with my dog. Super friendly and easy to work with. My dog’s got a lot of energy and can be a bit wild, but she handled her really well. Kept me updated with videos and made the whole thing feel easy. My dog came back happy and calm. Definitely recommend if you’re looking for someone solid and experienced.”

About: I have been a dog owner for more than 18 years and I've been around cats and dogs my whole life. My partner and I, along with our 4-year-old Pyrenees mix, provide a safe, loving space with tons of room to run, and heaps of belly rubs. I'm currently working part time as a property manager on a 50 acre estate. My partner works from home. So one or both of us is around. We both take our dog for a long hike/bike/one wheel ride every evening that we would love to take your buddy with us. If I have take your dog to work I have a Tacoma with a camper shell that I bring Stevie in. It's safe and lockable so you can be assured that your fur baby is safe. We live in a single family home with two floors outside the Meyers roundabout. We allow dogs on couches, beds and have indoor and outdoor dog beds. We are a block away from miles of trails down to the Truckee river. Also I love running my dog Stevie with my one wheel around paradise park. Which is around 4 miles round trip. So if your dog needs lots of running and is safe on or off leash Ive got the toy for them. When not walking or riding we have a large fenced backyard (especially for Tahoe). So they won't be couped up inside. Please let us know what your best friend needs and we'll do our best to accommodate.


“My dog Muffin has spent last weekend with Teeda for daycare while we were skiing. Muffin is normally very shy with strangers and takes a while for her to warm up to people, but the second day we are dropping her off, I can already sense she is getting comfortable with Teeda. Teeda also sent me pictures throughout the day of Muffin to let us know she is doing well and that really gave me the peace of mind when I am on the slope. Highly recommended!”


About: I've always had personal pets and have been the designated petsitter for my neighborhood since i was a child. I've spent the last decade professionally training & boarding all types of dogs, cat, and falconry birds. I'm currently open and available all days of the week. My life is my dogs/family and there is always room for more furry (& feathery, scaley, ect) friends. 💜 I have a fenced garden area and 4 dogs at home who are crate trained. I can accommodate most requests and love a schedule & routine, whether in my home or in yours.

“We had to find a sitter for one day for Issa, our German Shepard. We were able to drop her off early and pick her up the same day. Elisabeth made the arrangements very accommodating. Our puppy played in the water and seemed to have had great day. We would love to have her watch Issa again.”


About: I am a passionate dog owner and animal lover. RN and handyman by trade. I run a small campground on our property. We've always had dogs growing up, and we currently have a Border Collie puppy. We have a large property with trails for walks and a fenced in back yard. I love going for walks/runs with dogs around the yard. Since I work from home with no set schedule and will only be watching 1 or 2 dogs at a time they will have my full attention. A minimum of two 30 minute leashed walks per day (likely more) as well as off leash play time in the fenced in area. We have a fenced in backyard that pets can freely roam around. Backyard has shaded areas and a sprinkler if it's hot out. There's a doggy pool on the deck as well. They can also hang out in my office with me which has a king bed and lots of toys. The rest of the property is unfenced, but has a large field and trails to walk around. Our vet is located 10 minutes away: pleasantvalleypetclinic.

“This was our first visit with Erika & everything went as planned. She was on time to pick up our dog & drop him back off to us. I cant say how Max felt, but he was calm and normal when we picked him up. We came from out of town, so this was especially helpful to have a dedicated pet sitter. Hope to use her services in the future, as well. Very satisfied!”

“Brittany was a dream come true and exceeded our expectations! We were visiting from out of state and needed a sitter for 2 long days during class. Our senior dog Lily was loved, walked, napped, and fed. When we picked her up at the end of the day, she was calm & happy. Brittany, thank you so much for sharing your beautiful spot with our sweet old girl!”



“Twylla was amazing and went above and beyond. She was able to watch my dog and my sister's dog during my wedding. She accepted a special request to come pick the dogs up at the venue which allowed for my family to enjoy the day. Both dogs were well taken care of during their stay with Twylla!”


“Kristi and her family took great care of Hazel! I’d definitely look to Kristi to take care of Hazel again!”

Adam & Lauren G.
“Leaving my dog, Nugget, in someone else's care is never easy—but Adam made it feel completely natural. From our first meeting, I could tell he truly gets dogs. Nugget warmed up right away, which is rare for him, and that gave me so much peace of mind. While I was away, I received the sweetest updates—photos of Nugget lounging in the sun, playing fetch, and even snuggling up for naps. It was clear he wasn’t just being watched—he was being loved. When I came home, Nugget was happy, calm, and clearly had a great time. I’m so grateful to have found someone I can trust completely. Adam is more than a sitter—he’s part of our extended pack now.”
