About: As a former kitten & puppy foster parent, cat owner, and dog lover, I’m happy to help accommodate whatever your pet sitting needs are! I grew up with both a dog and a cat and am very comfortable around both. I work full time Tuesday-Sunday during normal business hours (sometimes I’m off Sunday or Tuesday depending on the week) so midday visits are sometimes challenging, but I’m flexible and happy to try to accommodate any scheduling needs/last minute requests. Let me know how I can help you feel confident that your pet is in good hands! I’m always happy to do whatever a pet parent needs to know that their baby is being properly taken care of.
About: Hey all! You might know me personally, and if not, I’m so glad my profile caught your eye. I’ve been providing trusted pet and house sitting care in the Lake Tahoe area for many years now, through personal referrals, and I’m now expanding my availability here on Rover. I’m well known locally and provide regular care for pets in private homes and condos throughout Tahoe. I love using Rover as a professional platform that offers structure, transparency, and peace of mind for both pet parents and sitters. I understand how big a deal it is to leave your pet behind, and my goal is always for you to feel completely comfortable and confident while you’re away. To me, pets are family. Your friend will enjoy hanging out with me at your house, rental or at my place. Whether it’s a trip to the lake, a walk around Tahoe’s local trails, or simply just hanging out in the house, I can accommodate whatever you and your pets needs are. If your friend does stay with me they can enjoy the forgiving floors or sunshine on the deck. I have a very pet friendly condo and they can hang out on the couch or bed with me. If you’re ok with it, I’d love to get us outside to enjoy the beach or an easy going walk (depending on owner preferences). I understand the necessity of leashes and prefer to keep my new friends on a leash at all times during our first few visits as we get to know each other. After a while and only if you prefer, we can start the process of letting them get some off leash time while at the beach or on walk. I will adhere to any dietary and allergic needs you may request. I have volunteered many years at the humane society and have been trained by the best at the Truckee location. I enjoy sending you pictures and videos of our pet time together and I am always available for a phone call or text chat while you are away. If your friend needs to lodge with us then we have plenty of options. Whether he or she enjoys sleeping on my bed with me or in a pet bed/kennel that you provide, rest assured your little friend will be warm and cozy at night. If your pet has specific time they like to go potty I will work with their normal schedule. I welcome all animals into my safe home. I’m able to stay the night if needed. I have all hours open from early mornings to late nights in case you want to check out the local nightlife! I hope to meet you!!! And can't wait to meet your special dog or cat friend! Pet care is a my daily life. I work very early mornings (for the skiing and board crowd) and I am also available as late as needed if you want to experience Tahoes Night life. I do not accept multiple bookings, so it will be your dog/dogs/cats and I only. If I am showing up on your calendar, then that means I’m available! I am by your pets side the whole time. While in the home we keep doors closed at all times and I consider myself very intuitive about when it’s time to go potty, or just get some fresh air. Leashes are required at all times while outside. Fresh clean water bowls and dishes are supplied, as well as plenty of blankets for lounging. If you prefer no walks or outings while on my watch that is just fine, just let me know what your ideal stay for your pet looks like. I am very familiar with senior dogs and can provide gentle outings. We will do your regural trail, but if you want want your older dog to experience the beach, I have some very nice stairs, some strong hand and can help your dog down physically to the beach.

About: I have over 10 years of experience caring for animals of all kinds. I started by helping family and friends, and now I offer my services professionally. I’m patient, responsible, and treat every pet as if they were my own. I have experience with dogs and cats of all ages and personalities, including puppies and senior pets. I can help with walks, feeding, basic baths, and—most importantly—lots of love and attention. 🐶🐱 Your pet will be in good hands with me! ❤️ I work part-time at River Ranch from 7:00 to 11:00 a.m., which gives me plenty of flexibility throughout the day to care for your pets. I live in Lake Forest and can easily adjust my schedule to make sure your furry friend gets all the attention and care they need. I provide a calm, safe, and loving environment for every pet I care for. I always take the time to understand each pet’s personality and routine to make them feel comfortable and happy.

About: I started fostering puppies in my early 20’s, have always had a roommate with a dog who I would take care of when they were out of town, got my own dog 3 years ago, and am always happiest when hiking/walking or snuggling on the couch with as many dogs as possible! I’m in Tahoe just for the winter, have a part time job but have tons of availability and flexibility. I take my dog on a long walk everyday, she’s super friendly and loves company! I have a fenced in yard, and a dog who absolutely loves friends. My roommate also have 3 dogs who enjoy having friends as well, the more the merrier in our house! Lots of snuggles, playtime with fur friends, lots of walks and outdoor time and no shortage of affection from humans!
About: I’ve owned and taken care of dogs my whole life. I watch a lot of my friends dogs when they go away and always make sure they are happy, fed, and included on adventures. I have experience taking dogs trail running, mountain biking, and backcountry skiing. Throughout the fall I am mostly taking online prerequisite classes to get into nursing school, so I am at home most days of the week! If your pup needs a buddy to hang at home with or someone to take them for daily adventures, I’m your person! If your pet is with me, I can assure you they will get lot’s of love and exercise in nature. Being able to take a break from class and go for a run with a dog would benefit myself as much as them! I live on a quiet back road with a big yard. There is not a fence. My neighbor has a friendly yellow lab that we often take for walks and care for as well. There is a big trail system behind my house and I often take dogs up there for exercise. Inside the house, I am always open to having a dog on the couch or bed as long as the owner is. I am not a partier and am an early morning person. Your dog will be sure to get a morning and evening walk at the minimum. The dogs I walk usually come for any adventure with me, but if you have a senior dog that just needs a place to hang out and be loved on, that’s fine too!

“Judy was amazing with our dog, Maple, while we were visiting up in Tahoe! We wanted to make sure our young adolescent pup was given a long walk midday while my partner and I were out skiing for the day. Needless to say, we could tell Maple was satisfied because we when we returned she woke from a nap as if she was resting from a good day with Judy. Judy was very communicative, responsive and kept us up to date on the progress of her walk with our Maple!”

Aga was amazing with our high-energy Entlebucher Mountain Dog! She took him on a long walk in the woods with another dog in her care, and he came home happy and tired. Aga communicated with us wonderfully and even sent photos from their adventure—tails were wagging! I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for pet care, and I’ll definitely be using her again in the future!
