“Amber was great! We used her for our three labs and cat for the better part of the day and evening. She was on time, a quick learner, and took excellent care of the boys. The dogs had lots of walks and she sent pictures of their fun together. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone to care for their fur babies.”



About: My journey with animals started long before I became a sitter-growing up around dogs, cats, and small animals taught me the value of patience, empathy, and consistency. From daily walks to special-needs support, I provide thoughtful, reliable care that helps pets feel safe, loved, and right at home-even when you’re away. Right now I am working full-time as a pier attendant for the HOA at Tahoe Tavern. I am off Tuesday and Wednesday. Thursday to Monday I work from 7:45 to 2 pm. When I care for pets in their home, I prioritize safety, trust, and consistency above all. I follow each pet’s routine closely, keeping their environment calm and familiar while respecting your space as if it were my own. I stay attentive to behavior changes, ensure secure feeding and walking practices. My goal is to make both pets and owners feel completely at ease-because peace of mind is part of the service.

About: I grew up in Tahoe and love all the wildlife and nature! My grandparents founded one of Oregon’s first canine-crisis-response therapy dog organizations, inspiring my lifelong passion for animals. I’ve raised two Portuguese water dogs and a cat named Merlin. I’ve volunteered at shelters, and studied the human-canine bond in college. Now I’m preparing for med school so I’m looking to help support myself by combining my passion for animals and care! Animals have always been a part of my life that brings me peace and contentment. Being able to care for animals brings me happiness while I study for the MCAT and save money to support myself through med school. I’ve been surrounded by animals my whole life and have cared for a wide range of temperaments. I take time to understand each dog’s unique personality and needs, adjusting my approach accordingly. Whether a dog needs gentle encouragement, extra training, or space and patience, I can adapt quickly to meet their needs. I always listen closely to the owner’s preferences and concerns, making sure my care aligns with their routines, boundaries, and goals. I understand how hard it can be to be away from your pet and I’m here to help!

“Sarah arrived promptly to watch our pup for a few hours for us while we went skiing. She was very communicative, and shared frequent updates with us while we were out. Most importantly, she made our pup feel comfortable! I’d recommend Sarah for your dog sitting needs.”


About: I have taken dog training classes at the local animal shelter. I offer puppies plenty of time for teething tug-of-war and have tons of patience with the geriatric slow walkers. I work part time, close to home, which offers plenty of time for dog walking, drop ins and over night care. My hours are flexible. I would keep your dog safe on a leash and have a large crate if that would help them feel secure in a different environment.

“Jessica is wonderful and I would highly recommend her. I have two German Shepherds and don’t trust many people with my dogs. Jessica is communicative and professional.”


About: I bring a calm, loving presence and truly enjoy bonding with each dog I care for. While I don’t have a pup of my own right now, I’ve helped friends and family with dogs of all ages—from energetic puppies to slow-moving seniors. I live an active lifestyle and love getting outside for long walks, hikes, or just some playful fetch time. I’m detail-oriented, patient, and treat every pet like they’re my own—making sure they feel safe, happy, and loved every step of the way. I have a flexible schedule and love making time for pet care throughout the week. I'm available for morning walks, midday visits, evening care—and I’m also happy to help on weekends or with overnight stays. Spending time with dogs is something I genuinely enjoy, so I’m excited to make it a regular part of my routine. I treat every pet’s safety and comfort as a top priority. In a client’s home, I’m respectful of their space and follow all care instructions closely—from feeding schedules to leash routines. I live in the mountains, so dogs in my care have access to peaceful trails and plenty of space to explore safely. Whether at your home or mine, I create a calm, loving environment where your pet feels secure, happy, and well cared for.

“We had Kae sit our energetic 2 yo Vizsla for the first time this past weekend for 4 nights and she was terrific! You can tell she really loves the pets she cares for. She also left the house perfect. Will definitely use her again!”


“Maddie was great with our dog Sophie. She kept her entertained with many walks and other outdoor activities. She sent lots of photos to keep us up to date. We came home to a very happy dog. Thanks Maddie”


About: I have had animals all my life including dogs, cats, horses, Guinea pigs, you name it! I have professionally trained horses for 10+yrs and trained dogs for 5+yrs. I have taken classes to better understand and tune in to different behaviors and body language given by dogs in order to give the best experience to the animals. While your dog is under my care, they will get tons of attention, belly rubs, play time, walks, and embark on the Adventure of their lives! Are you ready for the Paw-fect experience? I am currently working a mellow job for the summer so I will have lots of energy to give to the animals in the form of adventures and fun! I am constantly hiking out in nature and exploring nearby wilderness areas! I will supervise your pet the whole time, give them what they need, take them out for frequent potty breaks, take nice long walks, and of course have a long playtime session all catered toward what your dog needs!

“Scott watched our two Vizslas for the afternoon. When we got home, they wanted to go with him. They played and were very happy enjoying Scott. We got stuck in traffic and Scott was very understanding. Will book with Scott next time we need a sitter.”


“Annette is highly professional, and I could not be more thankful to have her to watch my kitty. Annette stepped up very last minute, and I knew immediately that she would be the perfect sitter. She was excellent with communication, very caring and loving, and I felt completely comfortable having her stay in my home. My heart was warmed with updates and photos of Del while I was away. I would absolutely recommend Annette to other pet parents.”


“Leo was right at home with Olivia. She stayed with him in my home, took amazing care of both. She is calm, communicative, and really took the time to understand my expression of Leo’s needs. I highly recommend her, and will be booking with her again very soon!”

“We found Donna J. to be reliable, dependable and very caring. She took wonderful care of Max and Hiccup as well as our home. She was available and easy to communicate with. She sent us photos and videos daily of our beloved spoiled dogs...which was totally appreciated. We just knew they were in great hands. Our house was spotless upon our return which meant a lot. We would not hesitate to use Donna J. again for any pet or house needs. We highly recommend her to anyone! Patty and Guy Tarvin”

Alexander F.
“Alex has been an animal lover ever since he was old enough to be aware of them. From the time he was a young child and introduced to our dogs and cats, he treated them with unusual care and affection. As an older child, when his family finally got their own dog, Stormy, a Portuguese Water Dog, he not only helped his parents with taking care of her with feeding, walks, etc., he also was very involved in training her. When he was in high school, he volunteered for the Lake Tahoe Humane Society to care for their shelter animals. Alex, now a recent graduate from college with honors, is an extremely responsible, kind, trustworthy young man who with his prior experience and ongoing enthusiasm for nurturing his and others' pets, would be great at dog or cat-sitting.”

Whether they have been puppies who need a little extra attention or elderly dogs who need a lot of extra attention, I found her to be very patient and caring for my pets.
