Cat Sitting Tahoe City

About: Hello, I am a local who lives full time in Tahoe City. I've been a pet owner with both dogs and cats for the last 30+years. I am a mother of two grown children that are now off away at school. I work at the local elementary school with young children of special needs. I am a fun, caring and loving person who loves both animals and humans. I am free to take care of your pet most days, nights and some weekends. I work from home during the summer months so my schedule is always flexible. I currently live in a condo down the street from Lake Tahoe. There are numerous parks at the lake as well as many hiking trails to walk your dog at that are close by my place. I will always walk your dogs on a leash unless otherwise informed by owner to let run free in the woods and trails. I am very safe and responsible.

“Cynthia was very responsive and flexible for our last minute drop in request. Took great care of our dog! Highly recommended. We will definitely work with her again when we are in town”

About: Hi! My dog Enzo and I enjoy hiking around Tahoe. I would love to take your fur friend on all of the adventures with us! I usually spend my days off wandering in the woods and playing at the lake. My ideal day may include a morning hike, evening walk, lake sunset, porch relaxing, reading/Netflix at bedtime with dog cuddles. I can offer as much or as little activity as needed, feeding times flexible, house rules flexible (furniture/no furniture, crate/free roaming) depending on your home routines. I would also be more than happy to take care of your pups while you’re out of town. Enzo and I can come to your place, or your dog can stay with us at ours. I work as an emergency room nurse so my shifts are variable, but I have four days off each week. When I am not working, I am able to be with the dogs doing dog adventures all day long! I am often off work for a week at a time. My schedule is variable because I work in health care. When I am not at the hospital working, I can dedicate the whole day to hanging with the pups Dogs will stay in the house with frequent potty breaks. We have a morning and evening walk each day at the very least - most days I try to spend the majority of the day outside with hikes and lake days

“She did a great job, especially with my 2 senior dogs. The communication was great. I would recommend Amber!”

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.

About: Hi, I’m Julia! I’m 44 years old and originally from France, and I’d love to be your pet’s new favorite sitter 🐾 I have many years of experience caring for animals, especially dogs. My own dog lived to almost 17 years old, so I’m very familiar with everything from playful pups to senior care, including medications, special diets, and extra patience when needed. I genuinely love being outdoors and going on walks, and I always make sure each pet gets the exercise, attention, and routine they’re used to—whether that’s regular potty breaks, feeding schedules, or just lots of cuddles and companionship. I live right by the national forest, which is perfect for safe, enriching walks in nature. In addition to dogs, I also have experience with cats, fish, and pet rats, so I’m happy to care for a variety of pets. Since I work mostly from home, I’m able to provide plenty of supervision and attention throughout the day—your pet will never feel alone. I also offer in-home visits, where I can care for your pets in their own environment and help with small tasks like watering plants and keeping things in order while you’re away. I treat every pet like family and always aim to make them feel relaxed and loved while you’re away. Feel free to reach out with any questions—I’d love to meet you and your pet! Pet care fits very naturally into my daily routine since I work mostly from home and have a flexible schedule. I’m able to plan my day around the pets in my care, making sure they get regular walks, feeding, potty breaks, and plenty of attention throughout the day. I enjoy starting and ending my day with walks, especially since I live right by the national forest, so it’s easy to give dogs fresh air and exercise in a calm, natural environment. I’m also home most of the time, which allows me to provide consistent supervision, companionship, and care. For in-home visits, I’m able to adjust my schedule to match each pet’s routine and needs, whether that’s morning, midday, or evening visits. I always aim to keep pets on their usual schedule so they feel comfortable and stress-free while you’re away. I always care for pets as if they were my own, making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved whether they are in my home or their own. In my home, pets get a calm, relaxed environment with lots of attention throughout the day since I work mostly from home. I follow their usual routines as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, potty breaks, and any specific care instructions. Living near the national forest also allows me to provide peaceful, enriching walks in nature for dogs who enjoy being outdoors. In my clients’ homes, I make sure to respect both the pet’s routine and the home itself. I stick closely to your instructions so your pet experiences as little disruption as possible. I’m attentive to details like meals, medications, exercise, and companionship, and I also make sure your home is kept tidy. I’m happy to help with small additional tasks like watering plants, bringing in mail, and keeping things in order while you’re away. My goal is always to make pets feel secure and cared for, and to give owners peace of mind knowing everything is in good hands.

“Audra was so incredibly great with our sphynx cat ? she was communicative and made us feel at peace while on vacation. We hope any time we need a cat sitter it can be Audra ?”

About: I have been caring for dogs since the age of 12, starting with dog sitting for family members and volunteering at local animal shelters. Over the years, I’ve gained invaluable experience working with pets of all sizes, from large breeds to smaller ones, and have developed a deep understanding of their unique needs. I’m particularly passionate about caring for senior dogs. I am well-versed in the specific attention and medical care elderly pets require to stay comfortable and healthy. My extensive hands-on experience has allowed me to build a strong connection with animals, ensuring they feel safe, loved, and well-cared for in my presence. Currently, I work a part-time job, which allows me to maintain a flexible schedule. I am available throughout the week, as well as on weekends, for overnight care, drop ins and dog walks. I provide attentive, loving care for my dogs by always ensuring they are securely harnessed and leashed during our walks. I remain vigilant of our surroundings to keep them safe, while staying fully engaged with them throughout, carefully observing their body language to understand their needs and ensure their comfort. Their safety and well-being are always my top priority. I provide attentive, loving care for my cat by creating a safe and comfortable environment where he can feel at ease. During playtime, I ensure that he has access to interactive toys that engage both his physical and mental abilities, while always monitoring his body language to gauge his comfort level. His safety, well-being, and happiness are always my top priority, and I take extra care to maintain a calm and secure atmosphere, allowing him to feel safe and loved at all times. I will care for your pet(s) with the same level of love, attention, and dedication that I give to my own.

About: I’ve had dogs and cats since I was a child.

With experience taking care of dogs, cats, bunnies, guinea pigs, mice, turtles, geckos, fish, and more, I value taking good care of all pets. My availability is flexible this Fall so please do not hesitate to reach out! I’m moving to the Lake Tahoe area for the Fall and am looking for extra work centered around animals.

About: Hello, I’m Katie! Growing up I had lots of pets...dogs, birds, parrots, bunnies, hedgehogs, and I worked at my uncles Vet Clinic growing up. I’ve taught many tricks to multiple dogs growing up. I’m active and always on the move, always looking to help out owners and their pups needing housing or walks. I spend time at my cabin in Lake Tahoe, and travel frequently. Cheers! PS - Because I travel, I do not book more than a month in advance! I work from home and keep the back door open to my fenced yard so pups can come and go as they please. I’m flexible with times, locations and length, if I can help just ask! Full fenced large yard for pups to play and explore. My dining room has a row of windows to the looking into the yard to keep an eye out.

About: I’ve been surrounded by animals my entire life. Growing up my family fostered dogs and rescued abandoned pets we found on the streets of Florida, caring for them until they were healthy, safe and loved. That early experience taught me patience, compassion, and how to understand dogs of all personalities and backgrounds. Even though I work full-time, my schedule is very flexible. I’m able to step away during the day for dog walks or drop in visits which means pets in my care never have to wait long for attention, potty brakes, or some fresh air. I work eight hours a day, but my job allows me to adjust my brakes around the needs of the animals I’m caring for. At home, I’m able to host pets as long as they are potty trained and my husband- who has been an animal lover his whole life helps as well. We both enjoy going on daily walks together so bringing a dog along is something we truly look forward to. We also live very close to a national park and a local dog park which makes it easy to give pets plenty of outdoor time, exercise, and enrichment. Whether it’s a walk, playtime, or a calm drop-in visit, pet care naturally fits into my routine every single day.

“Christie did a great job checking in on our pups so we could ski all day. Would use her again.”

About: Not only have I had pets my whole life, I have cared for other peoples pets as well. I pride myself as being reliable. I consider our pets as family. Each have personalities, emotions, and specifics needs like every member of our family do. This is how I approach caring for pets. I am an active person so would love to take your pet on adventures. I am a full time graduate engineer student at University of Nevada, Reno. I have classes I have to attend Monday - Thursday for approximate 4-6hrs. When I am not on campus I would love having a furry study buddy to hang out with or stretch my legs with on an adventure. At the moment I can not accept caring for pets at my home, although I more than happy to take your pet on a hike, walk or care for them in your home.
