“Could not have been a better experience! Our puppy dog Tito was treated as family during the course of his stay. Andrea was amazing at letting me know he was doing ok and I think Tito has found a new best friend with Henry! Thank you all so very much !!!”

“I am so happy Charly got to stay with Kathy and her dog Gypsy. My dog Charly had a blast. Kathy was attentive to Charly's anxiety and made sure he ate and sent me plenty of pictures which made me so happy. I would definitely have Charly stay with Kathy again! Thanks Kathy!”

“Kym was great! She took care of our 5 month old puppy for 5 days while we were out of town. She was super responsive in the booking process as well as while we were gone. She sent daily updates on our puppy who always seemed to be having a great time with her and her dog Huck. I would not hesitate to hire Kym again in the future!”

“Melanie took great care of my dogs and dropped them off before we arrived! She was lovely to communicate with and my dogs seemed happy and healthy when we got him. Her place on the hill with the fenced in area looked lovely for the dogs. Will definitely use Melanie again!”

About: I have experience working at a doggy day-care. I was responsible for watching and entertaining up to 25 dogs at a time of all ages and sizes! I am currently working 4 days a week Tues-Fri. I have a long weekend every week to give your pup the love and attention they deserve! I hope to find some canine friends to hike with me on the weekends. I can cater to whatever your dog needs as I have plenty of experience working with different breeds, sizes, and ages. Just let me know and I will provide.
“I feel lucky that I found Melissa to care for our miniature poodle Cooper. Cooper was never happy in a commercial daycare situation but felt at home at Melissa's house. Melissa truly loves every pup in her care and regularly communicates updates on your dog's behavior. 🐶 Right away we felt at ease after leaving our dog for a few days with Melissa and highly recommend her services!”

“Dingo is a senior dog and has a few special requirements with medications etc. Aaron handled all of this excellently and we loved to get the pictures of what Dingo was up to each day! Thanks for taking great care of Dingo”

“Nayla has been great with our pup. I always get great pictures and reports on how he’s doing. They go for lots of walks and he comes home happy! She’s always flexible when she can be and has been great to work with. Nayla will definitely stay on our short list of people to trust our dog with!”

“Christina and fam are wonderful! It's very clear that they deeply care for their own pets and did everything possible to make sure our two little old ladies were right at home. For me, one of the biggest ways to tell how things went is during pick up. When I got there, my dogs were of course excited to see me but clearly felt right at home with Christina, weren't stressed out or any of those other kinds of things you might look out for. We are so pleased with everything, we are booking again!”

About: As a pet lover and dog mom myself, your pets are my priority and I love getting to meet new dog and cat friends! I am comfortable with pets in all shapes and sizes, and have extensive experience with anxious animals, as my own dog is quite the shy guy. I live in Alpine Meadows and work at Palisades Tahoe, and am happy to give your pets the care they deserve on my off days and before/after work! I work at Palisades Tahoe as a ski instructor and live in the Donner Lake area. I typically work Friday-Sunday with evenings off. I can be flexible if needed! My dog is super friendly and he gets taken out every 3-5 hours if possible. I try to walk him every day, as well as letting him socialize with other pups!
“Oh my gosh! Susan’s home was the BEST for my two puppies. They were so well loved, and came home stress free. My first choice whenever I need a sitter for the pups! Thank you, Susan, for giving them a second home while we were away!”

“I am so happy with the care Sarge received!! He’s little and old and I was nervous to leave him, but Kristin was kind and accommodating of his picky eating habits, and sent lovely updates. Absolutely will look to them again for our next trip!!!”

“Gina was very communicative with me and always made sure to send updates and photos. She was very easy to work with and really took the time to understand my dog’s needs. She is an excellent dog sitter and I highly recommend her!”

“I had a last minute need to take care of my Sadie and nearly cancelled my trip! From the moment Wendy responded to my request I felt absolute comfort leaving my baby with her! The entire time she communicated with me and sent pictures of Sadie and her DARLING golden, Wilbur, together having the time of her life! I’m not sure who had more fun on vacation; me or Sadie?! Your baby will be well taken care of with Wendy 💕 I hit the jackpot finding her !”

“Thank you for your help Westan!! Westan watched our dog and cat and they both loved him! I think Aspen wouldn’t have minded if we stayed away a few days longer so she could spend more time with him! ?”

“Susan, we were SO happy with the wonderful service you provided for us in February and March. You were flexible, loving and so caring of all the animals. We highly recommend your services! Thank you and we will see you again another time.”

About: Hi, I’m Monica, a Truckee local, animal lover, and pet owner with two cats and a dog of my own. A huge reason why I was interested in doing this is because I know firsthand how hard it can be to find a trustworthy and reliable pet sitter in Tahoe. Leaving your animals with someone else can be stressful, and I want people to feel confident that their pets are genuinely cared for while they’re away. I live an active mountain lifestyle and am great with dogs that love getting outside, but equally happy caring for shy cats, senior pets, or animals that just need calm companionship and consistency. I’ve also spent time involved in ski patrol and search and rescue environments, which I think speaks to the kind of person I am, responsible, calm under pressure, attentive, and safety-oriented. I’m currently building my Rover profile and offering introductory pricing while I establish reviews and relationships with local clients. I promise to care for your animals the same way I’d want someone caring for mine ❤️ I work remotely running my own accounting business, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to be very present and attentive with the animals I care for. I’m detail-oriented, communicative, and reliable, and I’ll always treat your pets and home with respect. I prioritize your pet's well being, adhering to routines and ensuring a clean environment. Trust is so important; I maintain your pet's space meticulously, respecting privacy, and providing attentive, reliable care.

“Emmersyn is a total pro at pet care. She has so much experience and also just loves doing it. She sent so many great updates and photos. It’s so nice not having to worry about our senior cat when we go away. We went to teach her how to give our cat subcutaneous fluids but she already knew how! You’d be lucky to have her!”


“Lidia did an amazing job house sitting and caring for my 7 month old kitten while I was away. She was communicative throughout the stay, providing regular updates and photos that gave me complete peace of mind. She was also flexible, respectful of my home, and clearly attentive to my kitten’s needs. I would absolutely hire Lidia again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter. She was a pleasure to work with!”


About: I have had animals my whole life, though not professionally, but I have taken care of mine and friends animals now for many years. When friends are out of town or at work all day I will take their dogs on walks/hikes or to the lake for some swimming. I do work a full-time job but my job allows me to get out at a decent time so I enjoy hiking and walks after I get out of work so I wouldn't mind a furry buddy with me as I enjoy the outdoors! I already do it for some friends so I might as well offer it up to anyone that would like their pets to get outside more. I have 2 cats so I can't have a dog in the house, which is why I can only offer my services for dog walking or drop in visits.
About: I have a lot of experience caring for dogs and cats and truly love any time I get to spend around furry friends. Whether it’s going on walks, drop-in visits, or just giving your pet some extra attention and care while you’re away, I treat every dog like they’re my own. I have very flexible availability and do my best to work around your schedule and your pet’s needs. I’m reliable, attentive, and happy to provide updates so you can feel confident your pet is in good hands. I’m also happy to provide references or reviews from past pet owners upon request. I have a pretty flexible schedule and have a lot of time to take care of your pets even if it’s at the last minute. I am used to many different pets and let them approach me. I can walk them, give them the care they need and put them back in their crate.
About: I would love to take care of your pets. I have taken care of pets for a few years now and would love to brighten their day. I am comfortable with any animals and any tasks such as walking, feeding, playing, esc. My schedule varies from week to week! I work as a music teacher so I am around for most of the day to spend time with your pets! I am available to care for pets in my home and I am available to care for pets in your home as well. I am also available for dog walking and will pick up your pets if needed as well.

“Mariah did an amazing job caring for my 2 cats. She made sure they were properly cared for every day and also spent time playing with each of them. She left detailed reports after each visit, and was very communicative about everything. Overall she’s the best!!”


About: While my background has been primarily with dogs, I’ve also spent time caring for cats as part of in-home stays. I’m attentive to their routines and individual personalities, and I aim to create a calm, respectful environment—whether that means play, companionship, or simply giving them space.

About: My love for animals started early—I grew up in a home full of dogs and cats and was always the one feeding, walking, and caring for them. That hands-on experience taught me the importance of patience, consistency, and truly tuning in to each animal’s needs. What sets me apart is my intuitive, compassionate approach to both dogs and cats. I’m experienced with pets of all ages and temperaments—from high-energy puppies to mellow seniors, and everything in between. Whether your dog needs long walks or playtime, or your cat just wants a calm presence and a clean litter box, I’ll provide thoughtful, personalized care to keep them happy and healthy I work remotely with a flexible schedule, which means I’m available for morning and afternoon visits or walks throughout the week. This allows me to give your pet consistent, attentive care without feeling rushed—whether it’s a long walk, playtime, or just some midday companionship. My goal is to create a calm, comfortable environment that feels safe and familiar to them. I follow your pet’s usual routine as closely as possible. I keep things clean and tidy, respect your space, and make sure your pet gets plenty of attention, affection, and exercise. I’ll also keep you updated with messages and photos so you can feel confident that your pet is happy and well cared for while you're away.

“My pup had so much fun with Lidia. When I picked her up she was calm, happy and content. She had the time of her life playing at the lake and sunning herself on the deck. I'd be thrilled to have her watching my dog again in the future!”

“My husky rescue can be timid and scared in new setting. Nayla and her awesome dog made Freya feel comfortable, playing and hiking and building her confidence. Nayla was prompt, understanding, communicated well and shared lots of pics of their adventures. It was reassuring and awesome to see my dog having a great time. I highly recommend Nayla if you have an active dog and are looking for someone to give them the attention, exercise and love they need while in someone else’s care.”

“Kathy was great with the dogs, communicative and flexible, especially because we booked her during a blizzard! Still she made sure our pups got some activity and felt at home.”

About: I've been dog sitting and walking for over 13 years and have experience with many breeds. I live an active life style and would love to take your dog(s) on walks, runs, or hikes. I'm happy to get outside in the winter as well. I highlight the importance of exercise in my care and know that a tired dog is a happy dog! I'm also happy to follow any routines and dog-favorite activities of your own. I'm in grad school online and have pretty flexible hours. Usually my dog sitting days include a short walk (15-20minutes) in the early morning and a longer one mid-day to afternoon (45minutes - 1.5 hours) with another shorter evening walk. Weather and heat are always taken into consideration when planning daily walks. I'm also happy to follow the schedule and walk length that your dog is accustomed to. I believe personalized (or dog-alized) care is important. I'd love to be in communication with you prior to service in order to talk about dog needs and routines. I'm also always available for communication while with your dog and will send daily photos!
“Johanna took great care of our little girl, introducing her to snow. Her dog Olive is super sweet and our Arrow fell in love with her. Great communication, easy and agreeable. We would definitely leave Arrow with Johanna again next time!”

About: I love my dogs , and will love yours just the same! My home is small and cozy, with near access of hundreds of acres of woods with amazing hiking trails! A number of dog friendly beaches are close by for summer swimming as well. I prefer pups that are ok off leash for romps in the woods, as I take my dogs there for exercise daily. But leashes are certainly ok if that is preferred. My 2 pups, Oki and Cassidy, are very loved and spoiled, and the same will go for any pup in my home! About this sitter: Hello! I am Brynn, and have lived in the Tahoe area for just about 20 years now! I am a Certified Natural Chef and own Nourish, a personal/private chef service. I love my dogs like children, and cherish every second spent with them. I am active, kind hearted and down to earth, and value the smaller things in life. Why I love dog sitting From as long as I can remember as a child I have always loved dogs...well all animals really, but dogs are special to me. I grew up on a small farm and had lots of dogs, mostly Australian Shepherd, German Shepherds and Saint Bernards. I spent most of my free time with them as a child. My parents got me into 4H at a young age and I began training and showing my Aussies. I can't ever remember a time in my life where I didn't have a dog! I moved to California 13 years ago, and it was then that I was lucky enough to meet Kai, the love of my life, a black tri female rescue Aussie. She was the greatest soul I have ever met. At age 13 she passed away from Lymphoma. She was so loved and lived a blessed life. Now I am blessed with two amazing pups that I love to the moon and back...I will always be a dog lover! About my yard I do not have a fenced in yard. My home is located in the Tahoe Donner neighborhood, and backs up to hundreds of acres of forest. That is where we do all of our adventuring. I am self-employed, and my work days typically start at 3. That gives ample time for morning adventures! Our current daily routine typically goes as follows - 7:30am wake up, on-leash bathroom time, breakfast, post breakfast snooze, 10am adventure, noon treats and chill, 3pm bathroom break, 7:30pm dinner, after dinner chill, bathroom break, 9:30 bed time! Most pups that stay with us fit very well into that routine. I am very hands-on and attentive to my fuzzy friends. My dogs are never out of my sight. They have full range of the house (couch, bed, chairs, laps!).
About: Hi! My dog Enzo and I enjoy hiking around Tahoe. I would love to take your fur friend on all of the adventures with us! I usually spend my days off wandering in the woods and playing at the lake. My ideal day may include a morning hike, evening walk, lake sunset, porch relaxing, reading/Netflix at bedtime with dog cuddles. I can offer as much or as little activity as needed, feeding times flexible, house rules flexible (furniture/no furniture, crate/free roaming) depending on your home routines. I would also be more than happy to take care of your pups while you’re out of town. Enzo and I can come to your place, or your dog can stay with us at ours. I work as an emergency room nurse so my shifts are variable, but I have four days off each week. When I am not working, I am able to be with the dogs doing dog adventures all day long! I am often off work for a week at a time. My schedule is variable because I work in health care. When I am not at the hospital working, I can dedicate the whole day to hanging with the pups Dogs will stay in the house with frequent potty breaks. We have a morning and evening walk each day at the very least - most days I try to spend the majority of the day outside with hikes and lake days
About: I have had dogs my entire life and will treat yours as my own. I am happy to send pictures and updates of our walk or time together while you are away. I can take your dog on a walk around the neighborhood, run, hike, to the river or lake, or whatever you suggest. I can provide pet sitting at your house or my own. I have a home with a fenced in yard perfect for doggy day care. I have a flexible schedule that can fit your needs. I'm looking forward to meeting your pup! I am a local teacher who works Mon-Wed so those days I am gone during school hours. Thur-Sun and summer I am available with a flexible schedule. I live in a quiet neighborhood with a fenced in yard that’s perfect for a pup. My most recent dog was an old golden retriever with medical needs so I am used to providing special care.

About: I received formal education and receive continual education of cat and dog behavior at my job as Lead Animal Caretaker for the Humane Society of Truckee Tahoe. I understand that every dog is an individual and should be treated as such. I have experience working with and handling dogs of all breeds, sizes and ages. Dogs with some “undesirable” behaviors are not a problem for me, and I am prepared to adapt to each dog’s needs. Chances are that I have dealt with it before. I will create a positive and enriching experience for your dog no matter what. I am free in the late morning and afternoons on Wednesdays and Thursdays, please feel free to reach out about specific times if you need to! You can be assured that your dog’s safety and emotional well being are my number one priority. They will always be kept on a leash, and they will be comfortable and happy.
“Have had Chloe as my daily walker for two weeks now and she is *fantastic.* Very communicative, friendly, and takes excellent care of my dog. I will happily continue being her client as long as I need a walker and as long as she can fit us into her schedule.”

About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my comprehensive experience and dedication to personalized pet care. Growing up surrounded by a variety of animals and living next to a farm provided me with invaluable hands-on experience in animal care from a young age. My commitment to ensuring each dog feels safe, loved, and engaged during their time with me makes my services exceptional. I pride myself on being reliable, communicative, and deeply passionate about the well-being of every pet I care for. I do work full time but on days I do work, I will be able to provide walks in the morning and in the early evening! I would love to work out a schedule that works best for you and your pet ! I recently moved to truckee and live very close to hiking and walking trails where I would be able to walk your pet. My house has a spacious, fenced in front yard where your pet could play!
“Samantha is amazing! She’s easy to communicate with and went above and beyond by taking Allie for a longer walk than we had booked. We really appreciate her care and will always book with Samantha when we’re out skiing!”

About: I recently just moved out to Truckee from Aspen! I love animals but travel too much for one of my own right now. I grew up with dogs my entire life and had 4 living with me before I moved. Using this app because I really miss them. We loved all things hiking and playing. Experience with dogs of all ages, all were different breeds and on different medications. I work 100% remote so I have flexibility in my schedule for walks and adventures. No animals are currently in my home, and since I work remote I won’t be gone all day :) I also have a SUV vehicle. Happy to give your dog all the attention and love! Lots of experience with talking my dogs in Vermont on leashed walks, or trail hikes.
About: Hi there, I’m Olivia and can’t wait to meet your fur family! My parents had a sweet spot for rescues and adopted dogs from shelters throughout my childhood. I have experience caring for a variety of breeds/sizes, ages, personalities, and levels of health. Over the past 15 years I have also sat for family, friends, and neighbors. I work remotely for a local company so my availability is pretty flexible and will allow me to be with your pup(s) as often as needed. Safety is my top priority. They will be leashed for potty breaks if there isn’t a fenced yard at home and on walks, especially while exploring busy trails and beaches.
“Malia was great to work with. She had great communication. Did a good job confirming times and clarifying what we were comfortable with. She picked up my Aussie mix and took her on a pack walk with a couple of other dogs on a nice long hike in Tahoe while we skied. We will definitely be booking her again!”


“I was very sick and unable to walk my very energetic boxer one day during the week. Given that I needed someone, essentially, right away, I figured I'd be out of luck, but thankfully(!) Zac replied to me within minutes... we worked on a good time to meet, he came to condo complex to pick up Sammy (..and was right on time :)). What a life safer for me and Sammy! Thank you again Zac!”

“Emma was great a total lifesaver for these two rambunctious doodles. She was a great quick communicator and these two would probably go another 10 miles a day if given the opportunity having a good mile to a mile and a half walk, every other day has been super helpful to me. When I am back in the Truckee Tahoe area, I will be certain to reach out fto her again.”


About: I am great with pets of all ages and sizes. I have trained multiple puppies and am very compassionate with senior animals. I am comfortable giving medicine and and special care to senior/sick dogs. I am familiar with arthritic animals as well. I always give each animal tons of love and attention. I want you and your pet to feel like I am giving them the best care! I am an avid hiker, and am happy to take your animal on a long walk to get their energy out. I love dogs and cats for their unique qualities and get along really well with both. I have been told by many cat parents that their cat "Instantly took to me and they never do that!" Also, I am quite strong and do well with really big dogs. I have an open schedule right now! Happy to provide care 7 days a week. I am unable to board, but can pet sit in the animal's home. I will follow the owner's lead on their animal's schedule and routine. I am very adaptable and want a seamless transition so the animal feels safe and comfortable. I will always take photos of your animal on the walk to let you know how they are doing. I value open communication and respond in a timely fashion.

“Could not have been a better experience! Our puppy dog Tito was treated as family during the course of his stay. Andrea was amazing at letting me know he was doing ok and I think Tito has found a new best friend with Henry! Thank you all so very much !!!”

“Kym was great! She took care of our 5 month old puppy for 5 days while we were out of town. She was super responsive in the booking process as well as while we were gone. She sent daily updates on our puppy who always seemed to be having a great time with her and her dog Huck. I would not hesitate to hire Kym again in the future!”

“Melanie took great care of my dogs and dropped them off before we arrived! She was lovely to communicate with and my dogs seemed happy and healthy when we got him. Her place on the hill with the fenced in area looked lovely for the dogs. Will definitely use Melanie again!”

About: I have experience working at a doggy day-care. I was responsible for watching and entertaining up to 25 dogs at a time of all ages and sizes! I am currently working 4 days a week Tues-Fri. I have a long weekend every week to give your pup the love and attention they deserve! I hope to find some canine friends to hike with me on the weekends. I can cater to whatever your dog needs as I have plenty of experience working with different breeds, sizes, and ages. Just let me know and I will provide.
“Dingo is a senior dog and has a few special requirements with medications etc. Aaron handled all of this excellently and we loved to get the pictures of what Dingo was up to each day! Thanks for taking great care of Dingo”

“Nayla has been great with our pup. I always get great pictures and reports on how he’s doing. They go for lots of walks and he comes home happy! She’s always flexible when she can be and has been great to work with. Nayla will definitely stay on our short list of people to trust our dog with!”

“Christina and fam are wonderful! It's very clear that they deeply care for their own pets and did everything possible to make sure our two little old ladies were right at home. For me, one of the biggest ways to tell how things went is during pick up. When I got there, my dogs were of course excited to see me but clearly felt right at home with Christina, weren't stressed out or any of those other kinds of things you might look out for. We are so pleased with everything, we are booking again!”

About: As a pet lover and dog mom myself, your pets are my priority and I love getting to meet new dog and cat friends! I am comfortable with pets in all shapes and sizes, and have extensive experience with anxious animals, as my own dog is quite the shy guy. I live in Alpine Meadows and work at Palisades Tahoe, and am happy to give your pets the care they deserve on my off days and before/after work! I work at Palisades Tahoe as a ski instructor and live in the Donner Lake area. I typically work Friday-Sunday with evenings off. I can be flexible if needed! My dog is super friendly and he gets taken out every 3-5 hours if possible. I try to walk him every day, as well as letting him socialize with other pups!
“Oh my gosh! Susan’s home was the BEST for my two puppies. They were so well loved, and came home stress free. My first choice whenever I need a sitter for the pups! Thank you, Susan, for giving them a second home while we were away!”

“I am so happy with the care Sarge received!! He’s little and old and I was nervous to leave him, but Kristin was kind and accommodating of his picky eating habits, and sent lovely updates. Absolutely will look to them again for our next trip!!!”

“I had a last minute need to take care of my Sadie and nearly cancelled my trip! From the moment Wendy responded to my request I felt absolute comfort leaving my baby with her! The entire time she communicated with me and sent pictures of Sadie and her DARLING golden, Wilbur, together having the time of her life! I’m not sure who had more fun on vacation; me or Sadie?! Your baby will be well taken care of with Wendy 💕 I hit the jackpot finding her !”

“Thank you for your help Westan!! Westan watched our dog and cat and they both loved him! I think Aspen wouldn’t have minded if we stayed away a few days longer so she could spend more time with him! ?”

“Susan, we were SO happy with the wonderful service you provided for us in February and March. You were flexible, loving and so caring of all the animals. We highly recommend your services! Thank you and we will see you again another time.”

“Luke was so amazing! I had a last minute cancellation from a Dogsitter and Luke came to the rescue! He was very responsive and he was able to meet us in just a few hours. I got frequent updates and he was very attentive to my spoiled pup. Luke was nice enough to stay up late to make sure I got my boy before bedtime. Thank you, thank you, thank you!”

“Megan and her family are great! This was my second time using them. They kept me informed, sent pics, and gave my girls lots of love. I will definitely use them again in the future!”

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Exceptional Dog Sitters Above and Beyond! I’m beyond grateful for the incredible care gave to my dog, Enzo. They treated him like one of their own took him on a few walks, playing with him and their sweet dog, and making sure he felt completely at home. It’s rare to find people who not only care for your pet but also go out of their way to make the experience special for both dog and owner. Enzo came home happy, relaxed, and clearly loved. I would absolutely trust them again and recommend them to anyone looking for warm, responsible, and genuinely kind dog sitters. Thank you for being so wonderful to Enzo and to us!”

“Erin was wonderful all around. My boy was well-loved and definitely a happy camper. She was flexible and went above and beyond to keep me posted and care for him. 10/10 would recommend!”

“Tasha was so lovely! This was my first time leaving Rocky due to a last minute family emergency and it was a great success :) we came by for a meet and greet prior to drop off and it felt great to be so confident Rocky would be in great hands. He had so much fun, lots of activities and play time. Tasha was communicative and sent lots of adorable pictures and videos. Rocky is not great with recall so Tasha’s husband made a zip line so Rocky could easily explore as much of their property as possible! They really went above and beyond in so many ways. Thank you so much will definitely reach out to Tasha again if Rocky needs a sitter in the area!”
