“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 !!!”
“My dog enjoyed his stay. Great to have a reputable place to depend on when we have to leave our dogs behind. Elizabeth was great at communicating with texts and pictures. We will go back for sure!”
“Sharon was absolutely amazing! She was incredibly reassuring with the daily updates. We could tell our pup had a great time and I could tell that Sharon went the extra mile to care for our pup over the holiday with nice long walks and holiday treats. It was difficult to leave our pup behind over the holidays, but I'm so glad Sharon was there for us. We would definitey ask Sharon again if we need another sitter!”
“A great experience for me and my dog. Alexis took great care of Hana and provided me with updates. I was very nervous trying to find a place for her. She gets overwhelmed when she's around a lot of dogs and enjoys her quiet/napping time a great deal. She even had access to her own room where she could relax undisturbed. Highly recommended.”
“Thank you to Michelle and David for watching Clover for the weekend. Clover got to sleep on a bed (instead of in her crate‐ yes, it was okayed!) and had a doggy friend her age to run around with. I think she enjoyed herself!”
“My dog Mona had the best vacation with Mallory! Mona got to splash around in the creek and play with other dogs. I got regular photos and videos, and Mallory was super responsive. Highly recommend!”
“This was our first Rover experience. Linda did a great job keeping us informed of Petey’s progress, especially since he was quite nervous the first few hours being there. He had a blast playing on their property and seemed worn out and almost disappointed to come home! We would definitely take him back.”
“Very pleased with Olena! The place was easy to find and convenient to where I would be close to on our event. Their space is very adequate for sitting for pets. I felt very confident in her caring for my dog and she sent photos through the day and asked questions. I wouldn’t hesitate to book again.”
“Emily and her husband were great. I ended up stuck in Reno due to a fire and them closing I-80 so I texted Emily and explained my situation and Emily was great she had no problems keeping Bo for another day. She sent me pics and videos of Bo having a great time at her house with her dogs. I was afraid Bo wouldnt want to come home with me cuz he was having such a good time. Which wasn't the case Bo was happy to see me when I picked him up, but im sure he is going to miss Emily and her family.”
“Cameron did a great job with Yogi! He communicated well and sent pictures with updates. He asked questions about Yogi's needs and what to expect as far as his behaviour. He gave Yogi a few hours to decompress before being introduced to the other dogs in the home. Very professional and mindful...would definitely bring Yogi back and highly recommend Cameron!”
About: Hello, I am a local who lives full time in Tahoe City. I've been a pet owner with both dogs and cats for the last 30+years. I am a mother of two grown children that are now off away at school. I work at the local elementary school with young children of special needs. I am a fun, caring and loving person who loves both animals and humans. I don't have any pets living with me so your pet would be the only one I would be caring for. I am free to take care of your pet most days, nights and some weekends. I work from home during the summer months so my schedule is always flexible. I currently live in a condo down the street from Lake Tahoe. There are numerous parks at the lake as well as many hiking trails to walk your dog at that are close by my place. I will always walk your dogs on a leash unless otherwise informed by owner to let run free in the woods and trails. I am very safe and responsible.
“Sara was great! She came through for me on short notice and offered pick-up & drop-off of my little Mia. This extra service was extremely helpful for my travel plans. Good communication on coordinating pick-up & drop-off. And right on time! Mia was comfortable in Sara’s presence right away. I really appreciated the text/email updates and pics sent during her stay. Mia returned home a happy dog!”
“Gabriel took very good care of our dog Stacy while we were out of town for a couple days and sent daily updates which we really enjoyed. I would use Gabriel again for pet sitting needs”
“I’m extremely happy with my dog sitting experience for my dog, Princess. Sophia took excellent care of her and sent me daily pictures of her. This was my first time leaving my baby in a stranger’s care. Sophia was very responsive from the first contact online. She reassured me that Princess would be cared for and loved. She was not wrong. We visited for about 15 minutes when I dropped her off and she put me at ease. I would definitely use Sophia again and highly recommend her.”
“Jullaney was amazing! You can tell she has a passion for animals and she took great care of Blu. She was able to pick up, and drop off, my dog at my house which was super helpful. She even sent me updates, pictures, and videos of my dog having a fun ol' time with her dogs 😊 Thanks again! 🙏🙏🙏”
“We remain lucky to have Sam sit our Zassha whenever possible, she always makes sure Zassha gets all her favorite socialization and exercise time in with her own dog and cat, and was extremely flexible when we needed to adjust drop off and pick up times as part of our travel schedule. Thanks so much again Sam, we wouldn't be able to travel stress free if it weren't for you, and Zassha truly loves being with you all every time!”
“We were gone for 2 weeks. George and Malia took great care of our girl while we were gone. They sporadically sent sweet photos and videos of our pup so we didn’t miss her too much. Highly recommend.”
“Yolanda was awesome!!! She provided my dog a mini vaca filled with lots of playtime and outdoor exploring! I highly recommend Yolanda’s services!! She was just what I expected! kt”

About: Cats have been a large part of my sitter services for many many years since high school. I wouldn’t dare call myself a cat expert because all cats are extremely special and specific, though I would venture to say that I can make even the most shy cats enjoy their stay with me! I have experience administering medication and I have experience with special needs cats as well.
About: Lived with cats as well as taken care of friends cats for a little over 9 years. For friends drop in visits, I would at least try to hang out for a couple of hours so we can get to know each other and really build a relationship. Please let me know if you have any specific grooming goals or tools you would like me to utilize. My approach is to love and play with your cat but also, intuitively understand your cat’s behavior and cues. My goal is to not to dominate the space with my presence but, let your cat have space to interact with me if they so choose.

“Olena was super sweet and great with my dog. Had a previous bad experience with Rover so refreshing to have someone great with dogs. My dog never eats at a strangers and ate while staying with Olena so she’s family!! Thank you for giving him a wonderful place to stay!!”
About: Ive grown up with dogs of all kinds. I have experience training and breeding ranch dogs in Texas and live in a forest setting on the summit giving dogs the opportunity to run free safely. Im currently working part time and am consistently home during the week and holidays. I have a very active dog of my own who gets multiple walks and play time all day. I live in an apartment surrounded by a large wooded area with no ticks or excessive bugs. We are close to highway 80 for ease of travel and have river access in the yard and a private neighborhood for safe walks.
“Sienna provided a quick response to my booking request, and was willing to take my dog on short notice. She has a large yard, and clean pet friendly home for him to enjoy during his stay. I have complete confidence in her ability to take care of my pet, and I look forward to booking with her again in the future.”
“We had to find a sitter for one day for Issa, our German Shepard. We were able to drop her off early and pick her up the same day. Elisabeth made the arrangements very accommodating. Our puppy played in the water and seemed to have had great day. We would love to have her watch Issa again.”
About: I’ve cared for dogs of all ages, sizes and personality for years and I continue to care for them now. I’m experienced with walks, feeding, bathing, playtime, and administering basic medications. I’m currently working remotely part-time, so I have a lot of free time and flexibility. I can’t think of anything better to do during my time than care for animals! I have a safe, pet-friendly home with a fenced yard where pets can play. I also have one friendly dog, but I can easily separate or crate dogs if needed to ensure every pet feels safe and comfortable. I’ll always follow your pet’s routine and provide them with plenty of attention, care, and love.
“Kathy was wonderful from the start and I wouldn't hesitate to have our dog Samson stay with her again. She is very communicative and has a wonderful, calming vibe that I can imagine is great for the dogs. Samson spent the day playing with her sweet dog, Gypsy, and we loved getting photos throughout the day of them together. We were in town for a wedding and there were no problems picking him up late, that's so rare and much appreciated. Only wish we lived here so Samson could hang with Kathy and Gypsy more often!”
“Malia was so awesome with my two older dogs. She treated them like they were her own. She has an adorable daughter and family around and it’s a beautiful property. My dogs were very spoiled to get to spend time with her and her family. Highly recommend! Her place is super easy to find and closer to Colfax. It was eight minute drive from my Airbnb and super convenient. She is very responsive and such a lovely person.”
“Sara helped my dog that I got from the shelter socialize with other dogs. He was timid and scared when I rescued him from the shelter, but being at Sara’s improved his social skills.”
About: Hi there! I’m Barr, a wife and mother with a lifelong love for animals. We have a sweet 15-year-old Jack Russell named Indie, and I honestly can’t remember a time in my life when I didn’t have a pet. Animals have always been a huge part of our family, and our compassion for them is one of the reasons we chose a vegan lifestyle. I also worked as a veterinary assistant for two years, where I gained hands-on experience caring for pets and supporting their health and well-being. As a mom, I’m now looking to earn a little extra income while doing something that truly matters to me—spending time with and caring for animals. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your furry family member, and I will treat your pets with the same love, patience, and attention that I give my own. I look forward to meeting you and your pets! I’m a stay-at-home mom, so my schedule is incredibly flexible. This is one of the reasons why I wanted to start doing this and would be perfect for any spontaneous short or long trips! I have a spacious backyard, but unfortunately, it’s not fenced. To keep our dog, Indie, who is incredibly friendly with all animals, safe, I usually take them for three walks each day. We shower her with cuddles and treats from my husband, our baby girl and I each and every day ☺️
About: Dogs have been a central part of my life for more than 10 years. I’m the owner of Furbal Remedies and have years of experience supporting dogs with anxiety, allergies, digestive sensitivities, mobility concerns, special diets, supplements, and medications. I understand how important consistency and attention to detail are, especially for pets with unique needs. My goal is always to help your pet feel safe, comfortable, and genuinely cared for while you’re away. I work part-time and have a flexible schedule, allowing me to provide dependable care throughout the week. Whether your pet needs a daily walk, a midday check-in, vacation care, or extra attention while you’re away, I’ll do my best to accommodate your routine. I believe consistency helps pets feel secure, so I strive to keep their schedule as close to normal as possible. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I take the time to learn each pet’s routine, personality, feeding schedule, medications, and any special instructions so they receive the same thoughtful care they’re used to at home. I’ll always treat your home with respect, provide regular updates and photos, and make sure you have peace of mind while you’re away. For first-time clients, I prefer a quick Meet & Greet with you and your dog before their first booking whenever scheduling allows. It gives us a chance to meet, go over their routine, and make sure everyone feels comfortable before their first visit.
About: I’ve owned and cared for anywhere from 2-5 dogs and 2 cats at a time my entire life, most of which have been rescues of all ages, sizes, and behaviors. Additionally, I’ve volunteered at the local Humane Society with dogs and cats for around 8 years and have dog and cat watched for family and friends countless times. I’m comfortable with administering oral medication, using feline inhalers, and caring for animals from puppies and kittens to senior dogs. I am generally available every day from 8:00 AM to 9:00 PM, but can start earlier or end later as needed. On Mondays I am only available until 3:00 PM. Animals love me and I love them- be it hiking and exploring a lake, throwing sticks in the yard, frolicking in the snow, taking a short stroll, chasing a feather on a stick, or just kicking our feet up for a chill day. I have 3 friendly dogs and 2 cats at my home (one laid back, one spunky 1.5 year old) and a large, unfenced area in the woods where dogs can be leash walked or free roam. There are 4 litter boxes and 2 cat trees throughout the spacious multi-floor house. My own dogs are outside playing the majority of the day with water bowls and a bowl puppy pool outside or cooling down inside.
“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.”
“What a great environment for my dog. The backyard is a dog's dream, especially if your pup likes to run. Yolanda was very accommodating when I was delayed and kept me informed of how Beau was doing during his stay. I would highly recommend Yolanda and her Doggy Day Care.”
“Our dog had an amazing time! Great hikes in the area and lots of attention and care. I also enjoyed the human conversation at pickup and drop offs! We hope to be repeat customers next time we’re here.”
About: Hi! I’m Grace! I grew up surrounded by dogs of all shapes, sizes, and personalities, from a sweet Cocker Spaniel to a Belgian Malinois, so caring for pups has always been a big part of my life. I’ve always loved spending time with dogs and getting to know their unique personalities. I’m excited to give your pup plenty of love, attention, playtime, and the care they deserve while you’re away. I’ll treat your dog like they’re my own and make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved! I have a flexible work schedule that allows me to prioritize your pets and give them plenty of attention and care throughout the day. I’m able to build my schedule around their needs, whether that means walks, playtime, feeding, or simply keeping them company. I create a safe, calm, and loving environment for every pet. I follow each owner’s instructions closely, keep pets supervised, and make sure they feel comfortable and cared for.

About: Since high school I have had experience with normal pets to the exotic! I can honestly say that each animal is an individual that deserves their specific needs acknowledged and met. I do have experience with senior animals that need medication as well as special needs, there hasn’t been an experience that I haven’t learned from! I’ve even read books like Caesar’s Way in order to better understand my own pets and help them. I’ve even been known to be a bit of a perfectionist although that was in my earlier years now I can gladly say am a seasoned sitter! Please feel free to reach out to me before booking my care and I will answer any and all questions! Caring for your family member fits into my routine because at the moment I am a dog Mom of one dachshund with a good partner that loves her as much as I do! I also do volunteer work, which is extremely flexible. Aside from that a lot of what I do is online, which works out great when pet care is involved I will care for your family member by noting all of their needs as well as asking any questions I have about the environment if it was not already covered in our introduction. I like to take notes!
