“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!”

“Aaron and Nicole were flexible, communicative, and based on the photos, my dog seemed to love them! I really appreciate how they walked him on the trails near their home.”

“Melanie was so wonderful to our dog, Indy. She treated her just like she was apart of her family. Even on last minute notice - she kept Indy for a few extra days! We will be boarding with Melanie for all future needs.”

“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 !!!”

“Louis and June are just amazing! Brie took to them almost immediately! Their home is beautiful with an amazing backyard with plenty of room to run. Their dog Hunter is very friendly and became fast friends with Brie! Highly recommend and would use again in a heartbeat!”

“We are really satisfied with Filanthi’s care! She took great care of our boy! She communicated throughout the whole stay and provided daily photos! We would definitely use her again! Thank you SO much for your amazing care!!”

“Tim was an excellent with Luna. I went on vacation for 12 days and was very responsive when it came to updates and pictures. Luna looked like she had a great time with all of the outdoor adventures Tim took her on. Most definitely a reliable dog sitter.”

“Sussy opened her heart and home to my little timid Pomeranian. She kept my mind at ease with photo updates. He had a good time playing with her other small dogs and children. I was able to relax and enjoy our trip confident that he was in good hands!! Thank you ?”

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!
About: I am a Certified Professional Dog Trainer who specializes in positive reinforcement techniques and I’d love to welcome your beloved fur babies into my loving home. I am first aid trained and insured. I spend all of my free time with my own pups and welcoming yours into my days is sure to go seamlessly. Dogs who are crate trained are preferred. I have a fully fenced yard with multiple entry/exits to the home if the need for separation presents itself. I’m fully insured, professionally certified and CPR/First Aid certified.
“Kyley took amazing care of our sweet old hound Georgia, including taking her out hiking and swimming, her favorite things to do! Georgia was super happy in the photos Kyley shared and also when picked up. Kyley communicated well and was very flexible about my request for an early pickup. I would definitely work with Kyley again!”

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.
“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!”


“Ashley was so good with Ripp! I never worried the minute I dropped him off. She was very welcoming and her dog Pilot was super good with Ripp! Would totally recommend her and would love to use her again!”

“We had a great experience with Johanna! It was the second time leaving our new pup with someone and Johanna was so calm and kind. Her house is calm and tidy with a deck that gets great morning sun for a pup to take a nap in:) Her dog Olive was the perfect companion. We left our dog with her for three nights and got pictures everyday with a nice note about how it was going. They went on daily walks and a couple of adventures. Our dog came home calm (I think I’ve said calm three times now!) and relaxed telling me he was well exercised and not stressed while he was there. It feels so good to know we have a safe place to send our pup, thank you Johanna!”

“Annette is highly professional, and I could not be more thankful to have her to watch my kitty. Annette stepped up very last minute, and I knew immediately that she would be the perfect sitter. She was excellent with communication, very caring and loving, and I felt completely comfortable having her stay in my home. My heart was warmed with updates and photos of Del while I was away. I would absolutely recommend Annette to other pet parents.”

“Tasha did an amazing job with Pico! Pico has anxiety and Tasha took extra special care of her. We met with Tasha for a meet and greet and she asked all the right questions. I felt completely comfortable leaving Pico with her. When I picked Pico up I could tell she had been well exercised. I high recomend and I would use Tasha again in the future.”

“Kelly was a wonderful sitter for my pup, Wilson! She was so kind and easygoing and Wilson had so much fun going on a hike and playing with her new puppy all afternoon:) It was a huge weight off my shoulders to know that he was safe and getting some good exercise while I was away! I would highly recommend Kelly to anyone looking for a daytime dog sitter.”

“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!”

“Joshua was amazing letting Velcro make his self at home, Velcro and Bailey made fast friends like she was teaching him like a big sister will be booking again with Joshua thank you Joshua for looking after our Velcro”

“Excellent care! Tum was very flexible in adjusting the request I placed wrong and the dogs stayed with him overnight. Came back tired and very happy! Tim shared plenty of videos and photos along the way, I had no doubts they were in the best hands ever. Thank you so much, Tim, hoping to see you again soon.”

“My pup has been my travel buddy for eight years and there was the first time I had to find her day care in the area I visit often. Kathy took such great care of my pup and I got tons of cute photos. I will definitely book with her again when I go skiing in Tahoe.”

“Ollie enjoyed the stay with Nayla. I got multiple pictures and videos during the stay. There were a few dogs at Nayla’s place on the same day. Nayla and her partner made sure Ollie was safe and had fun with other dogs.”

“Brad was fantastic! Our family went skiing for the day and dropped our pup with Brad. He took our lab on outdoor hikes and let him just run around and play with other pups. We were sent videos and got updates throughout the day. I highly recommend Brad!”

“Amberlyn was the best! She totally put us at ease when watching our precious golden doodle. We were visiting from out of state and needed someone to come watch our dog for several hours each day. She even came over for an initial visit so we could all get acquainted. Our dog loved her! Amberlyn also kept us updated with photos and videos. We hope we see her again. 10 ⭐️ recommendation from obsessive dog parents.”

“Malea was great! Great communication, flexible with my schedule and the need for pick up and drop off. She took my Aussie (high energy dog) on many adventures and when they came back my pupper was tired from exerting her energy and happy! 100% would book again.”

“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!”

“Luke was stellar! He was super responsive and willing to accommodate a pick-up in the snow last minute. He kept us updated on our dog all day and even managed to ensure he got good exercise during a snow storm. Would definitely recommend!”

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.”

“Amberlyn goes above and beyond, and it is obvious she is a genuine animal lover. My pup developed a cough the first night of her stay, and Amberlyn let me know what was going on immediately. **My pup did not get sick from Amberlyn's place, I think she picked up something from dog beach or chasing ground squirrels and the timing for symptom onset was just unfortunate** Anyways, Amberlyn was incredible - she even helped call around to different vets to assess their availability for emergency appointments, and followed up to make sure Sophie was doing OK. I ended up cancelling my trip as I wouldn't feel right leaving my dog behind when she was sick. Amberlyn helped work with Rover to request a refund for me. Amberlyn is awesome and she will take excellent care of your dog, in sickness and in health :)”
