Dog Walking in South Lake Tahoe

“Tim did an incredible job taking care of my dog and cat! He truly is a dog whisperer. Dixie is shy and has never warmed up to anyone expect myself and close family but she loved Tim after just a few visits! Highly recommend him for all your pet walking and sitting. You won’t be disappointed!”

“So I’ll preface to say I never met Jeremy, his wife was the one that did all the walks but she was super kind and my dog loved her. Can highly recommend.”

Maren S.

“Super experienced and it shows! Seems to be a definite pet lover at heart. I loved getting to see the pictures of Aurora’s adventures during her walks. Overall I would 100% recommend Alena to anyone!”

About: I have had pets since I was little and have always loved animals. I have even helped care for an old roommate's bird for 5 years! I work full time as a server, but the earliest I ever have to go in is 930a and the latest I've gotten out is 11p. However, with an influx of students coming to our restaurant, my schedule has mellowed quite a bit and we're not being scheduled on those brutal doubles as much! I love going out for hikes and to the lake. I'd be happy to bring your furry buddy with me on those adventures! I'm also happy to relax and keep your canine OR feline friend company at your house too if they are more interested in relaxing!

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.

“Lisa is very professional and trustworthy! Falkor loved his walk. I would highly recommend her to care for your fur baby. Looking forward to using her again in the future.”

“Romina was wonderful with my dog Tilly. She arrived as scheduled and took Tilly out for a walk and a swim in the lake while we were at the golf tournament. I would hire her again!”

Catherine T.

“Sophia is fantastic! She is very thorough in getting to know the dogs and their preferences and personalities. Our dogs have taken to her right away. Would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring dog walker with great attention to detail!”

About: "With a lifetime of canine companionship, I've honed my skills in nurturing sweet and well-trained dogs. Working from home allows me to be a constant presence, sharing walks and creating a positive environment. Meet my delightful dog, Calvin, and let's embark on this tail-wagging journey together!" I work from home and I am able to be with your dog a majority of the time while they are staying at my house We have a fully enclosed large backyard, which will provide unlimited access to the yard if they need to go outside. I treat animals with compassion will be attentive to their needs.

“Krystina was great with Bacon (my dog)! He is a scared rescue puppy, but she was really calm with him , helped him relax, and gave him some great walks!”

About: Hello! I am a young professional in South Lake Tahoe who is searching for some extra work by dog sitting/walking and house sitting! After living in New Zealand for 7 years, I am back on Rover and excited to help look after your pets! I grew up training guide dogs for 4 years, so I have multiple years of experience working and training dogs, specifically helping dogs become well behaved (on and off leash), socialised, and obedient. I also grew up with 6 cats so I am very comfortable with animals. Additionally, I have house sat and dog walked for multiple friends and couldn't ask for a better gig. I am very active and love to go hiking/walking/running or just playing in the park with dogs. I am in a job transition so I have an open schedule, as well as a car for transportation. I look forward to meeting you and your pet and helping out in any way that I can! I’m currently working part-time, so I have plenty of time to look after your pets. My schedule changes each week, so just let me know when you need me and I can work around your schedule. I am more than happy to look after your pets in your home. I am dependable, organized, and responsible. I’ll make sure that your pet is well looked after with lots of love.

About: I have been caring for dogs for over 40 years. I will spend all of my time with your dog, hiking, swimming, playing in the snow and cuddling. Your dog will be my only priority. I am available to take care of all of your dogs with each scheduled visit. I will always ask if it is ok to also care for another dog along with yours. I am interested in boarding your dog/ dogs while you enjoy Lake Tahoe. I will be able to spend all of my time with your dog. I will provide a safe and clean environment for your dog. When we hike, swim, play in the snow, they will be on a leash. I will always be very careful with your dog.

About: Dogs are better than humans and the more we aspire to be like them the better the world gets. I love dogs and have always been an active member of my local humane society and have volunteered with non profits in several 3rd world countries for animal welfare. I am active and move around often so have not been able to have my own fur baby yet so I would be so grateful and honoured to be the best ‘ fun aunt’ to yours. I enjoy time outside as much as a dog does so I’ll be able to return your pup well exercised and ready to relax after a good hike and some fresh air and belly rubs. I work in restaurants so am free every day until 3 and finish around 10pm. I would be able to take your dog out for regular runs or walks as well as house sitting in the safety and comfort of their own home. I live in a studio apartment with great access to trails and an unfenced yard. Dog sitting at my house would be totally possible for the right dog that would be comfortable with a smaller space.

About: I have been caring for pets since I was 8 years old. From then to now I have done overnights, dog walks, and even potty breaks. Friends, family, and neighbors have relied on me to keep their pets company, take them on walks/get them outside, feed them on a consistent schedule, be available for potty breaks, stay over night, and bathe when needed. I love being a helping hand just as much as I love the furry companions! I just got back from a long trip away and I am not working. Allowing me full time to take care of and attend to your pets. I will follow any and all instructions given on how to care for your pets. For example, having them in leash when letting them into the backyard, putting them in the crate when needed, keeping food high out of reach, etc.

About: Growing up , I always loved caring for friends/families pets. In 2017 , my life changed when I got my first dog of my own, Sky the mini Aussie. Sky inspired me to start my own business , Mindful Pets, that I successfully operated from 2019-2024. I offered a range of services, from private walks , pack adventures, and in home pet sitting. In the 5 years of running my own pet care business, I loved weaving in my mindfulness practices, and invested in continued pet care education ; certified professional pet sitter with PSI , Pack Leader Blueprint , and Pet CPR / First Aid certified. You can rely on consistency in the care that I provide your pets , always ensuring their safety , well being, and having fun exploring new hiking trails or snuggling on the couch. Book your visit with me and guarantee a peace of mind your pets will be cared for by a professional. My schedule is completely open for pet care, depending on your pets needs / schedule , will determine the level of care I offer. I love taking pups out for fun adventures or caring for your feline pets in the comfort of their home. To minimize your pets stress , you can expect me to stay in your home. This helps keep your pets on their normal routine and environment and ensure they're happy and comfortable while the family is away.

About: Hi! I’m Samantha, I’m 25 years old and I recently graduated from SDSU. I grew up in Davis taking care of my family’s very sweet Labrador. He lived to be 17 years old so I have a lot of experience taking care of senior dogs. Additionally, I have a lot of experience caring for pets that are reactive and have separation anxiety. I love all dogs, especially big dogs. I’m very good with specific details and I always go out of my way to make sure that I get everything just right. I’m currently starting a business and I travel a lot, so I am trying to fill my free time playing with and looking after dogs since I miss having one of my own so bad. I travel a lot but when I’m not traveling my schedule is wide open! I am very flexible and happy to help with any irregular scheduling needs you may have. I will take amazing care of your pets and give them lots of love and anything else they may need! I will also do my best to keep your home spotless.

“Shannon was wonderful! Easy to communicate with and sent us updates while she was with our pups! Would definitely recommend her and we will definitely use her again! Thank you Shannon”

About: After growing up with pets my entire life and helping to care for them, I became a full-time pet sitter in April 2024. I moved away from Tahoe and spent 16 months traveling across the country, completing 27 cat & dog sitting stays in 14 different states. After an amazing time on the road, I’m returning back to South Lake and am excited to continue offering in-house care, as well as drop-in visits and walks! I have additional 5-star reviews on Trusted Housesitters (the platform I’ve used for the past year) and would be happy to provide those to you as well upon request! Thanks so much for your consideration and trust :) I'm self-employed, meaning I'm in complete control of my schedule and have a lot of flexibility! I'm able to dedicate as much or as little time required, depending on your unique situation and the pet's needs. As a guest in your home, I promise to treat it as if it were my own, and always leave it clean and secure. I know that it can take time to build trust with animals, and will take their personality and routine into account when caring for them. I ask a lot of questions from pet owners up front because I want to make sure I have all of the information necessary for a positive experience!
