Dog Boarding Tahoma

“Leaving your dogs is never easy, but Christine made it seamless for us and joyful for Willow and Jones. She treated them like her own, created a warm space, and shared the sweetest updates. We came home to relaxed, happy pups, which says everything.”

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 don't have any pets living with me so your pet would be the only one I would be caring for. 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.

“They were awesome! Kept me up to date with pics of texts of my husky and their dogs were awesome with her as well 10/10 would recommend and would use them again! Thanks guys”

“Pippa was happy and had a play mate. Gina was easy to work with and accommodating with our day and time changes with major weather conditions. Will take Pippa again next year.”

“They took in a big girl even though they didn't usually do large dogs! We appreciated their willingness to give larger dogs a try! They took great care of her! She came back very sleepy, so we know she was getting around! ????”

“Megan was a great sitter for our Charlie! I appreciated the effort she made to meet up before hand to get to know him. She was also easy to schedule and communicate with. I loved all of pictures we got throughout his stay. Coming home, Charlie was totally chilled out and happy; seems like he had a great time at Megan’s house and we so appreciate the care and attention she gave our old pup.”

“Tim was awesome! We had our dogs at our wedding but didn’t want them around for the loud music, so Tim came to our venue to pick them up during dinner! They had SUCH a good time - so many great pictures of the two of them with Tim and other new dog friends to hang out and play with. They are passed out from all of the fun activity”

“I had a last minute trip and Melissa took great care of my pup while I was away! She was flexible with my early drop off time and very responsive. Thank you!”

“Trulie was wonderful with our Shih-Tzu Shazam! She has a big beautiful yard for dogs to run around in and 2 fellow Shih-Tzus that mine could chill with. She is very loving towards Shazam and sent pictures and updates on how he was doing - she always made sure he was safe and comfortable (and well-loved)! Will definitely bring Shazam back!”

About: I am a dog mommy of a medium 14 year old pit mix, Roxy. I love all dogs and have family with everything from a Chihuahua (with no teeth) to a dopey Great Dane named after prince George. I have babysat all of their dogs and love to play outside with them. I like to run and hike with my dogs and we like to be silly together. She is getting older (14 years old) so she is not as active as she once was. I'm an educator, so my own pup is used to me being gone during the day, but because of holidays and summers I'm also free frequently. My own dog in the past struggled with stubborness and reactivity, so I know how to work with stubborn dogs and easy going dogs of all sorts. I have also worked with geriatric dogs and know what a struggle it can be when dogs are getting into old age. As an educator I work Monday through Friday (most weeks) during the day, and am home evenings, but have extensive availability weekends and holidays. My schedule can be somewhat flexible I am available to come to your home if your dog needs some company or can have your pup at my place. I also have transportation for taking your pet to the beach, river, or parks. I am happy to run, walk, or just hang out with your pets.

“We are grateful to Kathy and her family for making Coco comfortable at their house, taking great care of her and providing regular updates and pictures.”

“It was very easy to book with Gabriel the day prior to my short trip to Tahoe. He was very responsive and flexible with both pick up and drop off. My 7 mo old puppy stayed for one night. I would book again if I do another quick trip to Tahoe.”

“Teeda was great with our dog! She gave us meaningful updates with pictures and was extremely communicative. I will definitely be going back to her.”

Jack G.

“This was the first time boarding my 7MO old puppy. Of course I was nervous leaving her! Melissa sent me pictures and updated me throughout the stay. Receiving these updates reassured me that I made the right decision. I could tell by the pictures my Annie was having a great time. Thanks Melissa ~ I've already booked another stay and Annie can't wait.”

“Faith is an absolute gem of a dog sitter, and I genuinely can’t recommend her enough. I reached out last minute — the kind of request most sitters would turn down without a second thought — and she said yes without hesitation. What really stood out was how thoughtfully she handled Atlas’s anxiety. She didn’t treat it as an inconvenience; she approached it with patience and genuine care, and it made such a difference knowing my pup was in calm, understanding hands rather than just being “watched.” On top of that, she was incredibly flexible with pick-up and drop-off times, and even made a special exception for me when I needed a time outside her normal hours. She didn’t make me feel like a burden for asking — she just made it work. That kind of grace is rare. And the updates! She check-ins with photos and messages that were so reassuring. You could tell she wasn’t just going through the motions — she actually cared how he was doing. If you have a dog with any special needs or anxiety, Faith is your person. She went above and beyond in every way. Thank you Faith! 🐾​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​”

“We continue to use Susan every time we go out of town. We love knowing he is going to be taken care of, and that he gets to spend his days on long hikes playing with Susan and her dogs. Thank you Susan!”

“Stephanie was very responsive and sent regular "pupdates" with pictures. I had total confidence my dogs were in good hands. Would not hesitate to book again.”

“We had 5 day family vacation and couldn’t take our 1.5 year old golden, Monty. Melissa was wonderful with Monty! She kept me updated throughout his stay with photos and videos, and communicated really well the whole time. It was clear he was in great hands. Highly recommend, and we’d happily book with her again!”

Christine A.

“Lyndsey was amazing with dog Tulee! She was so kind, took her on multiple walks, sent me many pictures & videos throughout the day and had great communication. Couldn’t have asked for a better sitter! Thank you!”
