About: I have been a dog owner for more than 18 years and I've been around cats and dogs my whole life. My partner and I, along with our 4-year-old Pyrenees mix, provide a safe, loving space with tons of room to run, and heaps of belly rubs. I'm currently working part time as a property manager on a 50 acre estate. My partner works from home. So one or both of us is around. We both take our dog for a long hike/bike/one wheel ride every evening that we would love to take your buddy with us. If I have take your dog to work I have a Tacoma with a camper shell that I bring Stevie in. It's safe and lockable so you can be assured that your fur baby is safe. We live in a single family home with two floors outside the Meyers roundabout. We allow dogs on couches, beds and have indoor and outdoor dog beds. We are a block away from miles of trails down to the Truckee river. Also I love running my dog Stevie with my one wheel around paradise park. Which is around 4 miles round trip. So if your dog needs lots of running and is safe on or off leash Ive got the toy for them. When not walking or riding we have a large fenced backyard (especially for Tahoe). So they won't be couped up inside. Please let us know what your best friend needs and we'll do our best to accommodate.

About: I have extensive years of pet care. I’ve always had pets as a child and identify and understand their needs and wants (Cats & Dogs). I can house sit during the day but sorry no over night stays. If you call or text me early am I can book same day. Thank you. I have a cat and he comes first, so I do not do overnights stays but can do in home sitting for dogs or cats.

“Alexis was great with my rambunctious doodles! They jumped all over her and she handled them just fine. She took them to the dog park, sent me a nice report and pics. Alexis was very kind and gentle with my pets. I’ll definitely reach out again for more services.”


About: I have been caring for pets since I was 8 years old. From then to now I have done overnights, dog walks, and even potty breaks. Friends, family, and neighbors have relied on me to keep their pets company, take them on walks/get them outside, feed them on a consistent schedule, be available for potty breaks, stay over night, and bathe when needed. I love being a helping hand just as much as I love the furry companions! I just got back from a long trip away and I am not working. Allowing me full time to take care of and attend to your pets. I will follow any and all instructions given on how to care for your pets. For example, having them in leash when letting them into the backyard, putting them in the crate when needed, keeping food high out of reach, etc.

About: I have been caring for dogs for over 40 years. I will spend all of my time with your dog, hiking, swimming, playing in the snow and cuddling. Your dog will be my only priority. I am available to take care of all of your dogs with each scheduled visit. I will always ask if it is ok to also care for another dog along with yours. I am interested in boarding your dog/ dogs while you enjoy Lake Tahoe. I will be able to spend all of my time with your dog. I will provide a safe and clean environment for your dog. When we hike, swim, play in the snow, they will be on a leash. I will always be very careful with your dog.

About: Dogs are better than humans and the more we aspire to be like them the better the world gets. I love dogs and have always been an active member of my local humane society and have volunteered with non profits in several 3rd world countries for animal welfare. I am active and move around often so have not been able to have my own fur baby yet so I would be so grateful and honoured to be the best ‘ fun aunt’ to yours. I enjoy time outside as much as a dog does so I’ll be able to return your pup well exercised and ready to relax after a good hike and some fresh air and belly rubs. I work in restaurants so am free every day until 3 and finish around 10pm. I would be able to take your dog out for regular runs or walks as well as house sitting in the safety and comfort of their own home. I live in a studio apartment with great access to trails and an unfenced yard. Dog sitting at my house would be totally possible for the right dog that would be comfortable with a smaller space.

About: I have watched dogs since I was young, both at my house and at the owners house. I have watched up to 6 dogs at a time 😅 but prefer to keep it to 2-3 total. I have a dog of my own, a long hair-dachshund, that loves to play with all dogs. I make sure the dogs I watch get to play outside each day as I know how important it is for their health and happiness. I work from home and have a very flexible schedule. I often watch dogs at my house but can drive to check on dogs if it’s nearby. Most weekends I’m outside either hiking or playing the snow and love to take the dogs with me. I have a fenced yard and a dog door for access to the upper deck. During the day I often take a morning walk and evening walk in my backyard ranging from 30 minutes to an hour depending on my work schedule that day. I have tons of dog toys and treats that keep the dogs occupied.

This helps keep your pets on their normal routine and environment and ensure they're happy and comfortable while the family is away.

About: Pets are like family, no two ways about it! They give us their undivided attention, loyalty and love. I get great joy from spending time with, and connecting with all dogs and cats. When meeting any new animal, I focus on understanding them, communicating with them, observing their signals, and building trust with them. I don't currently have any pets and would enjoy the company of having your dog or cat when they need that care. Over the past 6 years I have done a range of pet sitting cats and dogs as far as house sitting, feeding, daily walks or hikes. I’m currently working part time, I am flexible with times and am willing to work with your schedule/dates needed to take care of your furr loved ones. Im always outside and walking in nature and taking a pup with me is no problem for me. I love to give animals all the attention they need. I’m all about keeping them entertained and engage with the animal. I like to build that connection and make sure their needs are met.

I am currently working with the California Conservation Corps based out of Meyers. I'm available mostly in the evenings and Fri-Sunday. Wildfire season is coming up so I might need to cancel or reschedule because I'll be on emergency call for these fires. I apologize in advance for any inconveniences that it may cause.

Adam & Lauren G.
“Every time Adam cares for our pops we come home and they are just as happy as they were when we left! I feel at ease leaving the dogs, cat and chickens under his supervision as well as our garden! We have an old lady dog and a young lady dog that have different needs and Adam caters to both. I trust that when we leave our property there's nothing to worry about when Adam is taking care of our animal family.”


Evelyn R.
“Evelyn has walked my dogs since last summer every other weekend when I have to travel. She is very reliable and patient with my boys and when she’s available during the week she takes them for four hours on some mornings. She keeps her rates fair and her care is worth every dollar because our senior dog is treated like a king. I have recommended her to two neighbors so far and it’s going well. She is also available to house for our cat when we are all away.”


Alexis D.

“Alexis was great with my rambunctious doodles! They jumped all over her and she handled them just fine. She took them to the dog park, sent me a nice report and pics. Alexis was very kind and gentle with my pets. I’ll definitely reach out again for more services.”


Alyssa C.
“Alyssa watched my 1 year old lab/ border collie puppy for 2 days, 1 night and did a great job. She walked him twice a day for about an hour each, played with him and stayed over night in my house. I felt very confident leaving my puppy with her and came home to a clean house and a tired pup. It was great!”

Kayla M.
“Kayla is great with dogs. She’s also very outdoorsy and active and can give the 4 legged mammals a good run for their money. Our dog Keanu loves Kayla. To the point he recognizes her car and goes crazy when she arrives to pick him up. Once while out on a walk he saw a car similar to hers and he went crazy thinking it was her. We definitely trust Kayla and she’s SO worth it. I would 10/10 recommend.”


Krystina J.

“Krystina was great with Bacon (my dog)! He is a scared rescue puppy, but she was really calm with him , helped him relax, and gave him some great walks!”


Camryn H.
“Since my dog was a puppy Camryn has gone above and beyond to ensure that he was well fed, walked and exercised, and safe and happy in his environment. She has spent alone time with him and created a strong bond that makes him so happy to see her every time she takes care of him. Sometimes it’s only a day or two needed but on numerous occasions it’s been multiple weeks and even a month of needed care. Which is a huge responsibility. Every time she updates me with pictures and texts so that I have ease of mind. 10/10 would recommend Camryn to take care of your fur baby.”




Gina F.
“Gina is the best! She’s been a sitter for many years and is great with both dogs and cats.

Megan M.
“Megan is awesome!! She is so thoughtful and caring about my dogs. They just LOVE her too.

John M.
“Hello, I want to share my experience with John. My family and I were going out of town and found out that our beloved dog, Teddy, was not allowed to stay with us at the hotel. We contacted John asking for help. Without any hesitation, John was happy to help us with Teddy over the weekend. He took great care of him, and Teddy had a wonderful time. John even notified us when Teddy didn't finish his entire breakfast- which is normal for Teddy, but John wanted to make sure we knew! We will definitely be going back to him. Thanks!”


Kelsey J.
“My experience with Kelsey taking care of my loved one (Cali) was phenomenal. There is no one like her!
