1. Kathy M.


“My dog and I both loved Kathy. I was a little nervous, leaving him because I rarely board him, but I felt so comfortable after leaving him with Kathy. She sent me photos throughout the day each day with updates. My dog had fun and felt comfortable there and I will definitely use her again.”


2. Christie C.

“Christie was super responsive and booking was easy. Chewie had a great visit and came home tired and happy! Will definitely use Christie again.”


3. Melissa B.


“Melissa is the best. We are so grateful we found her to take our pup. Tootsie always comes home happy and well taken care of. Melissa makes it so easy to leave her knowing she is in great hands.”


4. Allison H.

“Allison is fantastic! She sent me pics of my dog and took amazing care of my cockatoo, parrot. Not many were open to considering my very well behaved and easy going cockatoo, but thankfully Allison did! Only down fall is she lives across the country from us or she’d be caring for all of my animals all of the time.”


5. Shannon L.
About: My name is Shannon and I currently work at an elementary school so I will not be available full time throughout the day, but I am able to come home on lunch breaks and before and after work which is 9-3. I have a 7 year old French Bulldog who LOVES other dogs. I have frequently watched friends dogs in the past and am looking to start helping out others in need of local/cheaper dog sitting! I know first hand the struggles of affordable dog care in Tahoe for people who love to travel. Tahoe is an extremely dog friendly place, so for me, this is an opportunity to help other dog lovers find a great sitter who will love their dog like it is my own while it stays with me. I look forward to taking great care of your pet! Thank you!


6. Aaron & Nicole F.

“Aaron and his family were amazing with my puppy. It was my first time boarding her at someone’s home and I was a bit worried, but my dog seemed to really enjoy her stay. I was sent photos of her walking and playing with the kids. Aaron was very communicative, timely in his responses, and kept me updated on how my dog was doing. I would highly recommend them!”

9. Ron K.


“This was the first time we had left our puppy, Lucy, with anyone. We were a little nervous since we did not know how she would do. Ron and his pup Lexi took great care of Lucy. Having Lexi to play with made a big difference in making Lucy feel at home. She had a great time and Ron sent lots of updates to make us fee at ease with her stay. His house was set up perfect for her safety, and she had plenty of room to play inside and out. We will absolutely use Ron again in the future.”


10. Heather K.

“Heather took such wonderful care of our high energy boy—taking him for daily adventures, providing lots of comfy cuddles, and coddling his whining while he was anxious. She even took the time to work with him on the heel command. I think he probably had more fun in Tahoe than we did this weekend!”


11. Christina B.


“Bert was very well cared for by Christina. Communication was quick and efficient, and her residence was a comfortable and safe space for Bert to stay.”


12. Gayle B.

“Gayle did a great job letting us know how our dog was doing throughout the time she stayed there. She treated our dog as her own which made it so much easier to leave Poppy with Gayle. I would definitely recommend having her watch your dogs.”


13. Ali M.

“Would give Ali 10 stars if I could! I always struggle to leave Budd behind, but I immediately felt relieved and comfortable with Ali. He went above and beyond - doing all the things (and then some) Budd was used to. He took him on lots of walks and hikes, sent tons of great pictures and even got extra treats for him! He’s thoughtful and genuinely cares. Would book Ali again in a heartbeat.”


14. Maizel R.


“Maizel did an amazing job taking care of our dog Solis! Her communication is great and we know our doggy had a lot of fun while being with her. I highly recommend her as your pet sitter :)”


15. Juliet H.

“Juliet was nothing short of amazing! She made sure every one of my pup’s dietary and exercise needs were met, and her dog absolutely adored my Lucy! Juliet is flexible and went the extra mile to make sure we were fully accommodated and given peace of mind, and sent plenty of photos of the dogs on their adventures. I highly recommend Juliet for any of your current or future dog care needs!”


16. Kayla B.

“Thank you so much Kayla for taking care of our dog (Kokoa). We can tell she had the best time!! We so appreciate your communication and of course, the pics you shared. Look forward to going back to Reno and asking you to watch her again!!”


17. Brad T.

“I felt so comfortable leaving Mila with Brad knowing she was in the best hands! He went the extra mile to make sure she had a great time and shared plenty of pics, videos, and screenshots of their walks every day. I really appreciate that this wasn’t a big boarding house experience like I’ve seen in the past; Brad provides the attention, love, and adventures that make it feel like a second family and home for your pet.”


18. Goharik D.

“Goharik was very easy and quick with communication. She sent lots of great pictures and updates. Gilly really enjoyed playing with their dogs.”


19. Megan K.

“Always comes thru! Our sweet Millie was traumatized due to the evacuation and Megan provided such a nurturing home for our dog to feel safe and settle down.”


20. Meghan H.

“We couldn’t recommend Megan and her family more to watch your dog! They are a very active and we got an update every day of the new adventure the pups went on from lake swimming, river walks, and forest hikes. All on top of having a great yard for the dogs to explore and play. Easy to communicate with and lots of photos which we love ☺️”
