“Toni stayed at our house with our two dogs and two cats for a week. She took great care of them and the house. We got a ton of snow and the power went out. Toni was a great communicator and kept us updated. Lots of pictures!”
“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.”
“Sarah was such an incredible sitter for my dogs! I was very worried because they tend to be anxious when I leave and they have quirks but they fell in love with Sarah! I felt completely at ease for my whole 9 day trip. I received daily updates and pictures. It was such a relief to know they settled right in and felt comfortable while I was away. She even went above and beyond and made sure my house was clean and cozy when I returned. 10/10 would recommend Sarah for any pet needs. Thank you so much! I Will definitely book again in the future. 🥰”
“Fantastic Jaclyn!!! She helped me in a bind on very short notice. She went out of her way to take care of my little guy while I had a pressing issue. She is caring, compassionate, gentle and kind. She took great care of my buddy. If you need pet sitting assistance, Jaclyn is perfect.”
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.
“Alicia was fantastic!! She checked in frequently, sent a ton of photos and videos and the boys were super happy spending time with her. She left our home clean and tidy and was an all around delight!! We can't wait to have her watch the boys again!”
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!
About: I have an almost 3 year old White Swiss Shepherd dog who is very social and wants to come on walks with your dog! I love dogs and nothing makes me happier than getting social time for mine. I personally trained my dog to do many charming tricks (like play dead!) and would love to help teach yours too! My dog is great with other dogs of all sizes including puppies as long as they are not aggressive. I work part time and remotely so am flexible for last minute bookings. I’m often out on walks with my own dog and would love to take yours out with us. My dog loves to get a lot of exercise and I’m happy to give your high energy dog a lot of play and walk time with mine! I will come to your neighborhood or house where it’s most convenient to watch or walk your dog. My dog is very well behaved and social with other dogs.
“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 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.
“Emma was excellent to communicate with and took great care of the house and pets! It's not easy to find someone to take care of our German Shepherd and we are glad to have Emma as an option, will be rebooking in the future!”
“Tess was great with my dog Stanley. He clearly felt comfortable with her and she kept me updated every day but asked me ahead of my trip for my preference. I would gladly have Tess watch my dog again”
About: I have had dogs in my life since I can remember. Growing up around dogs has been a wonderful gift. I am experienced in dog walking, feeding, bathing and playing with all types of dogs! I work from home so have flexibility to walk and play with dogs in the morning, during breaks, and at the end of the work day. I am also available weekends. I have a great private fenced in back yard that is great for playing, pet relief and enjoing the sun! I also am very responsible as a dog owner myself.
About: I’m the go-to pet sitter (aka auntie) for friends when they leave town because they know that while they’re on their trip, instead of feeling guilty for leaving, they can trust their pets will be having too much fun with me to miss them too much. I’m the kind of pet-sitter that will let your beloved dog or cat cuddle me every night, make them sweet potato and peanut butter treats, and take the few minutes to practice tricks and develop training at the beginning of every walk to build trust, rapport, and skills. I love getting to see each pet’s quirks come out as we get to know eachother, and have fallen in love with every pet I’ve had the privilege of hanging out with, from older curmudgeons to mischievous rescues. I work from home and love to be active, so I’ll leave the doors open and be around for daytime company, cuddle breaks on the couch, toy time, and escaping to the beach or mountains to explore the wild together once I'm off the clock. I have a fenced backyard and often leave the studio door open during the day so dogs can easily go out to pee as needed, in a secure enclosure. I can only accept 2 dogs at a time for boarding/day care, so you can rest assured your sweet pup is getting lots of care and attention! I value building trust with pets over time, and see each new character as beloved member of a family that deserves to be given the space, love, and respect to thrive in their unique self-expression. I receive ongoing education in collaborative, trust-based training and communication techniques, and am skillful at using them instead of harsh, dominance-based techniques (while still remaining the firm leader and maintaining safety and order).

“I have known Cindy for several years now. I find her to be an extremely dependable and responsible person and always having a postive attitude. She is also, always willing to help me out with my dogs no matter what the situation might be. She has cared for several of my dogs over the years. 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. My dogs especially love it when she takes the time to play with them and all their favorite toys. They run up to her every time she comes because they know it is time for fun! They really love going on long walks with her!! When I come home from a long day of work, it's nice to know that my dogs were well taken care of.. they are very happy and content.

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.”

Holly O.
“Holly is great with dogs. Holly has babysat and house Sat with my Brittany Spaniel. My Brittany is 2yrs now and still as you know a torpedo that needs constant mental and physical stimulation. Holly knows the difference and gives both. Well educated and doing it because she loves dogs but not in the way that makes you uneasy. She is present and well spoken and talks to the dogs like a teacher talks to an honors student. Her irish roots and growing up around farm animals makes her attentive but stern. Like the Bird Lady in Home Alone 2. She’s compassionate but nobodies fool.”
Corrina G.
“Besides caring for my three dogs, Shadow, Lola and Priya, I've experienced Corrina with several other dogs in the neighborhood. She's very kind, caring and intuitive. I highly recommend her.”
