About: I've cared for a variety of animals. Old, young, hyper, timid, handicap, etc. I ensure your furry friend feels comfortable and loved while you have peace of mind. I work full-time from home, so your dog will go on a minimum of 3 walks per day. It also helps that I have a lovely goldendoodle! I treat any animal and home as if it were my own. I provide care with the utmost professionalism and respect, leaving you worry-free. :)
7. Melissa B.
“Melissa was exceptional! She helped me while I was injured and couldn’t walk my pup for a weekend. She was so timely, communicative and professional! Jojo loved every time her car pulled up and greeting her and it’s clear it was mutual from Melissa. She listened to all of my crazy dog mom requests and worries as I never have someone else walk him and was a breeze to work with. She brought her sweet golden Obi along for one of the walks and Jojo was thrilled! So thankful to be able to trust someone else with my pup.”
8. Grey H.
About: Growing up I've always loved taking care of pets and giving them the best environment possible. I have helped take care of several kittens and puppies until we could find them a home. Most recently I helped foster a dog who was abused and needed care. I run my small online businesses and blog from home, as well as attend a part time job. This leaves me a bunch of time to look after your pets! We have a nice yard that your beloved puppy can hang out outside. If you have a cat I've been known to have scared cats feel comfortable around me! As an animal lover I think they can feel they will be nurtured and loved.
9. Radoslaw J.
About: I'm very empathetic and caring towards animals, I also have 4 rescue dogs of my own and enjoy training them dearly. Two pups are rescues from rundown shelters in Poland. Two other pups are from Tahoe and New Mexico. I'm new to the SLT area and usually work from home trying to get some traction on side hustles, what gives me time for walks and training dogs. I've done plenty work around my bunch of 4 rescues to be patient and aware of cues dogs give and anticipate their behavior. This allows me to keep a safe play environment with any dog or dogs. Tahoe area is a playground for dogs with abundance of space to run and play what builds more opportunities for group walks and training in open spaces.
10. Alexis D.
“Alexis was great with my rambunctious doodles! They jumped all over her and she handled them just fine. She took them to the dog park, sent me a nice report and pics. Alexis was very kind and gentle with my pets. I’ll definitely reach out again for more services.”

About: Greetings. I’ve had a best friend was with me everyday for 15 years, I was with her from the beginning to the end. I am sensitive to the needs and ultra aware of our surroundings. I live alone in a quiet cabin on a quiet street. Big fenced back yard as well as on the porch. I know all the trails midtown and around the entire area. I’m very flexible and would care for any needs that are needed. Sit at home just chillin or take an adventure. It’s a big adjustment not having my sweet girl anymore so this is also good for me as well. I’m very flexible and available almost anytime and in short notice if things happen. I know how that goes. I know all the trails and areas to go that are safe and fun. Safe mornings walks are always good before it gets busy out there. Even fun adventures in the car going somewhere. It’s all on the table and fine with me. Quality time at home and overnight sleepovers work as well My dog Francis was a little attached. Maybe loyal is a better word. I was very lucky with her and didn’t have to worry too much. But I learned to never ever let anything happen to her. Very aware of the environment. Cars, other dogs, cayotes, bees and all weather conditions, grates in the roads ect. I’m not disactred by my phone or anything else. I’ll only feed what the owner approves.
12. Mckenna W.
“Mckenna is the sweetest! She took care of my dog overnight for a few days and did a great job. She did everything I asked and even some light cleaning while I was away! I would totally recommend her to anyone looking to book a pet sitter!”
13. Brittany & Megan H.
“Brittany is the most dog obsessed person I’ve ever met! She cares for every single dog like they are her own and will go above and beyond every single time! Highly recommend her to watch your dogs!”
14. Omar G.
“Best dog sitter. Omar would send pictures of our fur baby’s and you could tell they were happy and well taken care of. You can tell the doggies were relaxed around him and that helped our pice of mind while on vacation. Would definitely recommend Omar as a pet caregiver and will be asking for his help again soon.”
15. Haley L.
“Haley was my roommate when I adopted my dog Maisie; she ended up driving 4 hours to prove that she approved of the adoption; she is truly selfless and will go the extra mile for any dogs. She looked after Maisie many times; she is caring, responsible, and a dog lover through and through. Haley deserves all of your trust!”
16. Melanie P.
About: I was born and raised on a farm. From pigs and goats to dogs and chickens. Animals are my passion as they provide more love than any human can. I have owned dogs my entire life and prefer rescuing those in need rather than buying from a breeder. I work from home which ensures your dog will be cared for 24/7. My job is on east coast time zone so I’m a very early riser. At home, I have loving children paired with our boy Hank. Hankie loves dogs and so desperately wants someone to play with! Please message if you’re looking for someone to treat your baby like part of the family! I’m currently work from home on the East Coast time zone. I begin work at 4:30 am and I’m off for the day by 2:00pm. I walk my Hankie everyday at my lunch break. During other breaks I make it a point to play ball and give all the loves! I care for pets like they’re my own. Multiple walks will be provided as well as unlimited time spent in the backyard. Belly rubs and good boys happen every time I turn around!
