“Could not have been a better experience! Our puppy dog Tito was treated as family during the course of his stay. Andrea was amazing at letting me know he was doing ok and I think Tito has found a new best friend with Henry! Thank you all so very much !!!”

“Our pooches had the best time with Kathy & and her awesome dog gypsy! Her home was very warm and welcoming and the dogs loved the yard space, too! We highly recommend her and will be booking her again!!”

“Kymberly was AMAZING with our dog!! We booked her last minute because we got in a bind to find someone while we were in Tahoe for a ski race. Our dog has separation issues and she was hands down so wonderful with him!! He LOVED his time with her! Thank you so much!!! Highly recommend her!!! He got to experience the beautiful Kings Beach too.”

About: I have experience working at a doggy day-care. I was responsible for watching and entertaining up to 25 dogs at a time of all ages and sizes! I work 10 hour shifts 4 days a week Tues-Fri. I have a long weekend every week to give your pup the love and attention they deserve! I hope to find some canine friends to hike with me on the weekends. I can cater to whatever your dog needs as I have plenty of experience working with different breeds, sizes, and ages. Just let me know and I will provide.
“Melanie was so wonderful to our dog, Indy. She treated her just like she was apart of her family. Even on last minute notice - she kept Indy for a few extra days! We will be boarding with Melanie for all future needs.”

“Melissa took such great care of Kuma! I loved getting photos and updates, it made feel so secure that Kuma was receiving excellent care. Melissa is a true dog lover and it shines through.”

“The perfect boarding experience. Aaron and Nicole took excellent care of my Bernese Mountain Dog. Aaron and Nicole are attentive and caring. I felt at ease leaving Jelly in their care. I’ll definitely book with Aaron and Nicole again.”

“Nayla was amazing with Taquito! She asked a bunch of questions to make sure she knew how to best handle Taquito (on/off leash, if she liked the water, how to best feed, etc) and Taquito was immediately comfortable around her and her pup which is always a relief. She was communicative, sent us a bunch of pictures and flexible with scheduling pick up and drop off. Taquito had the best time and I highly recommend Nayla!”

About: As a pet lover and dog mom myself, your pets are my priority and I love getting to meet new dog and cat friends! I am comfortable with pets in all shapes and sizes, and have extensive experience with anxious animals, as my own dog is quite the shy guy. I live in Alpine Meadows and work at Palisades Tahoe, and am happy to give your pets the care they deserve on my off days and before/after work! I work at Palisades Tahoe as a ski instructor and live in the Donner Lake area. I typically work Friday-Sunday with evenings off. I can be flexible if needed! My dog is super friendly and he gets taken out every 3-5 hours if possible. I try to walk him every day, as well as letting him socialize with other pups!
“Christina and her kids took such great care of our dogs Sophie and Tucker. They were happy when we picked them up and came home and both crashed. They were so tired! Christina followed our directions on feeding the dogs to a tee. She or her kids were home with the dogs the whole time. I am so glad our dogs got to spend a significant time with her! I would highly recommend her!”


“As a first time Rover user I was very hesitant leaving my little love with a stranger! Ron put my worries at ease from the meet and greet until the end of my trip! He was phenomenal! He sent photos while I was away so I could see what everyone was up to, and one of his photos was the best picture that has ever been captured of Scout (and is now my phone background)! When my flight home was cancelled, he was very flexible and understanding! I can really tell Ron took care of Scout, because when I usually leave him with friends, he is hoarse from barking, but not with Ron! I'm beyond satisfied and will continue to book with Ron for future travels Scout can't participate in!”

“Judy was nice and warm to our dog Angie, she was very cautious about not getting our dog near her other pets, which made me more comfortable with our dog staying there. We will be happy to bring our dog back to Judy at our next stay at Tahoe.”
“Kyley took amazing care of our sweet old hound Georgia, including taking her out hiking and swimming, her favorite things to do! Georgia was super happy in the photos Kyley shared and also when picked up. Kyley communicated well and was very flexible about my request for an early pickup. I would definitely work with Kyley again!”

“Westin wasn’t available over my dates but his parents stepped in to care for Riggs and it was the perfect fit. Great communication and I could tell Riggs had a great and loving time. Will definitely reach out again.”

About: I have had dogs my entire life and will treat yours as my own. I am happy to send pictures and updates of our walk or time together while you are away. I can take your dog on a walk around the neighborhood, run, hike, to the river or lake, or whatever you suggest. I can provide pet sitting at your house or my own. I have a home with a fenced in yard perfect for doggy day care. I have a flexible schedule that can fit your needs. I'm looking forward to meeting your pup! I am a local teacher who works Mon-Wed so those days I am gone during school hours. Thur-Sun and summer I am available with a flexible schedule. I live in a quiet neighborhood with a fenced in yard that’s perfect for a pup. My most recent dog was an old golden retriever with medical needs so I am used to providing special care.
“I am so happy with the care Sarge received!! He’s little and old and I was nervous to leave him, but Kristin was kind and accommodating of his picky eating habits, and sent lovely updates. Absolutely will look to them again for our next trip!!!”

“Chelsea was amazing! She first started out with a meet and greet to make sure my dog was a fit for he to watch which made me feel very comfortable. Then once I dropped off my pup she stayed in communication with me and sent daily photo updates. My dog had such a great time! He loved playing her dog and I was very happy with my experience! Highly recommend!”

Skyline took great care of Garcia! Garcia also got to be out and about the trails, hanging out with other dogs! Skyline was very responsive every time I messaged her and was flexible with our schedule. Whenever we're in town for ski season, this will be the place for Garcia!
