“Lyndsey was amazing! She took such great care of our elderly dog and was very communicative throughout the whole stay - sending us updates and photos. Our dog was so relaxed and happy when we went to pick her up too.”
“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”
“Very friendly and caring! She kept us updated as much as possible, which really gave us peace of mind. A special thank you for taking such great care of her and for accepting our last-minute booking. We truly appreciate your kindness and flexibility. Highly recommended!”
“Jaimie was awesome! She was flexible around a few oddities with pickup/drop off, but most importantly treated our dog Maple so well! Great walks and play time, we could tell Maple was very happy. Thank you!!”
“Our experience and our doggie's experience was a great one! Her place is setup for legit dog care and you can feel confident that she knows what she is doing. As an over-protective parent of my golden doodle, she was always in constant contact with me while I was away. We are very grateful to have found such a wonderful place for our pooch to stay. We know he is in good hands and we don't have to stress about it.”
“Ashley was so great helping us last minute when we had travel cancellations! Her flexibility was so so appreciated. Leo had a blast and was exhausted for 2 days after returning home! I’d look to Ashley again for sure!”
“Leilah was absolutely wonderful with our dogs! She was incredibly reliable, communicative, and clearly treated our pups like her own. I highly recommend her services and will definitely be booking with her again!”
“Teresa was great with my dog Pappy- she listened to what he liked and was able to take him trail hiking to play in the creek away from other dogs. She sent me photos and videos each day and made me feel at ease that he was well taken care of. Will definitely call her again should the need arise!”
About: We hit the trails daily and have plenty of safe, secure space to exercise your pup. I'm currently taking on some gig work to supplement my grad school aid as I finish my degree. Time is as precious as the angels by our side, and I’ll treat your pup like my own. For your peace of mind, I maintain an active Wilderness EMT certification, and my trail kit always includes canine-specific tourniquets and first aid. Flexible schedule.

“Leaving your dogs is never easy, but Christine made it seamless for us and joyful for Willow and Jones. She treated them like her own, created a warm space, and shared the sweetest updates. We came home to relaxed, happy pups, which says everything.”
“Adam and Lauren are wonderful and they have a great space for Loki - he loves them!! I am especially grateful for their availability and care of him when I am away :-)”
“Breanna and Dan were the ultimate dog sitters! Their home is close to beautiful trails, marshes and beaches so it’s like your pup is on a vacation of their own in Tahoe. They took Roo on multiple adventures on her short 24 hour stay and consistently sent me photos and updates. They were very quick to get back to me and coordinating our schedules and booking was super smooth. Roo seemed very at home, comfortable and loved on, I would highly recommend Breanna and Dan as your dog sitters. I will be booking with them for any future Tahoe adventures.”
About: I have had animals my whole life. I currently have dogs and cats. Responsible for caring for multiple neighbors' pets. I walk the dogs daily. References available upon request. I am a dog person through and through. I love to take the dogs for walks. My life already fits around dogs very well. I take 2 walks per day. I have a large fenced back yard. I have beds around the house for the dogs. I have a crate available. I feed at 7am and 5pm.
“Shane is incredible! This was my first time leaving my new rescue pup who is very shy, he won’t let many people even get close to him and Shane sent me a video of them cuddling on the couch. ❤️ Shane was so kind and gentle with my pup. I’m so grateful how awesome it worked out. Plus, his two dogs are very chill and well behaved which was also great for my pup to play with them. Can't recommend Shane enough! There's more, his location is also amazing for the dogs because it’s far from any busy streets and right by a trailhead. 🙌”
“Jennifer and her boyfriend, Jack, were great hosts for our dog Brody while we were skiing in town for a couple days! They were both super nice and genuine, very accommodating with a last minute daycare request, and were flexible with our schedule which was super helpful! They both asked questions the drop off, sent us a ton of pictures throughout the day, and overall made us feel very comfortable with having our dog there with them! I would absolutely recommend and we will use them again when we are in the area!”
“We were visiting Tahoe and needed a sitter last minute for our small Velcro dog for a day. Laura was amazing, our dog promptly claimed her lap as his place of leisure. She took our fur baby on multiple walks and kept us updated throughout the day with pictures and texts. I highly recommend her, she has a beautiful house, a lovely family and an adorably gentle dog.”
“Highly recommended!! 🌟 Lauren is amazing! She took such good care of Henry, I wasn't sure if he'd want to come home! 🤣 We loved the daily photo updates of their out & about adventures or their indoor cozy seshs. Henry looked so happy & relaxed. Shout out to Lauren's good friend Charmaine who Henry also had the pleasure of hanging out with! Lauren, you are now on speed dial for pet sitting! 😉 Thank you so much for everything! Happy Happy Holidays & Happy New Year! 🎄🎆 pS... Henry says he misses you both! 🐕”

“Brenna was lovely with Zoey. Zoey is normally very shy when she first meets a new person but when we had our meet and greet, she came right out of her hiding spot to say hi to Brenna.”
About: Greetings. I’ve had a best friend who was with me everyday for 15 years. I was with her from the beginning to the end. I am sensitive to the needs of our dogs and always very aware of our surroundings. I’m ultra aware of the cayotes up here and all their tricks. With the new smells and distractions for some dogs that are not from here I always feel safer to keep them on leash during our walks. I live alone in a quiet cabin on a quiet street, no traffic and no neighbors. Big fenced back yard and a small gated front porch. I know all the trails in Sierra track as well as the whole area. I’m very flexible and will take care of all the little things that are needed and the unexpected ones that pop up. I know how stressfull it can be traveling and then leaving your best friend with someone. I will communicate with you and make it easy and stress free. It’s a big adjustment not having my sweet girl Francis. I was so used to waking up and she was there, or coming home and she was sitting in my spot waiting for me. Honestly this is good for me having a dog around. It’s helping with this process I’m going through. I am very flexible and available almost anytime and on short notice if life happens. I know how that goes. I know the trails and areas to go that are safe and fun. Im an early riser, and I enjoy mornings walks when it’s nice and quiet with no traffic or crowds of people. I have no problem with taking the pup with me in the car to run a quick errand or even better a day trip somewhere. Some dogs love car rides with the window down and nose out. And some do not. It’s all optional, absolutely no problems leaving him or her at home while I’m out for a sec. I primarily work from home and would be with him/her almost all the time. My dog Francis was a little attached. Maybe loyal is a better word. I was very lucky with her and didn’t have to worry too much. But I learned to never ever let anything happen to her. Very aware of our environment. Cars, other dogs, cayotes, bees , bodies of water and all weather conditions, hot pavement and even to always avoid the drains/grates in the roads ect. I’m not disactred by my phone or anything else. I’ll only feed what the owner approves.
“Angelique went above and beyond keeping our house cared for during the holidays/biggest snowstorm in fifty years. It was a mission for anyone to even exist during those few days and she made sure that our cat was cared for and safe. Plus making sure we had a path to get to the house when we returned, so incredible. Thank you!”
“Our cats were having the time of their lives while we were gone with Lyndsey! We loved seeing all of the photos and videos of them playing and it was so comforting knowing they were so well taken care of, played with, loved on and cleaned up after! I’m so glad we had her to come check on them while we were gone for the week and will absolutely book again!”
About: I have over a year of consistent dog and house sitting experience with the same family, where I’ve cared for their sweet fur baby and home with reliability and attention to detail. I’m trusted to maintain routines, keep pets comfortable, and ensure everything runs smoothly while owners are away. I’ve grown up with dogs and have always been comfortable around animals of all ages and personalities. I currently walk a dog weekly, which has helped me stay experienced with different energy levels, leash manners, and behavior styles. I also have experience supporting basic puppy training, including reinforcing commands and good walking habits, and I’m equally comfortable giving extra patience and care to senior dogs who may need a slower pace, gentle handling, or a bit more attention. My goal is always to treat every pet like my own and make sure they feel safe, happy, and well cared for. I currently work part time, which allows me a flexible and consistent schedule for pet care during mornings, evenings, and weekends. I’m able to plan my availability in advance and ensure I have dedicated time to give pets the attention, exercise, and care they need. Because I already have ongoing experience with weekly dog walking as well as long-term dog and house sitting, I’m comfortable balancing responsibilities while maintaining reliable routines for each pet I care for. I care for pets in my client’s home by keeping their normal routine as consistent as possible. I follow all instructions closely for feeding, walks, playtime, medication (if needed), and any specific habits or preferences each pet is used to. I prioritize making pets feel safe and comfortable in their familiar environment, and I make sure they get plenty of attention, exercise, and affection. I also treat the home with respect and care, keeping things clean, secure, and organized while the owner is away. I provide regular updates and photos so owners feel informed and reassured. Because I already have experience with ongoing dog walking and long-term dog/house sitting, I’m comfortable adapting to different routines, personalities, and energy levels—including puppies who need structure and senior dogs who may need a slower, gentler pace. My goal is always to provide reliable, attentive care so pets feel relaxed and owners feel completely at ease while they’re away.
About: I’ve taken care of cats since I was a kid and lived in a 7 car household at one point. I currently have one cat and I’m skilled in cleaning their litter boxes, feeding, playing and giving them the attention they need.
About: Growing up we always had multiple cats and I’ve witnessed two liters being born. I love cats because unlike dogs, you have to sometimes gain their love and trust. This entails consistent quality time and love which I am ready to give your purrrfect cat :)
About: I’ve had many cats as pets throughout my life and have always had a cat in my household. My own cat is my favorite companion and I am very well versed in the varying needs of different cats! I have cat sit for friend’s pets for many years.
“John, who goes by Jack, came over early to learn the cat procedures, stepped up at a last minute booking and did a great job, including the extra tasks. He communicated well and we were very happy with his service.”
“Stephanie took wonderful care of my puppy Lucien. She was reliable and responsive, followed instructions and sent me cute pictures and updates while I was at work. Lucien really enjoyed his time with her!”
About: I am a Clinical Medical Assistant, Herbalist, and student of Ayurveda and Traditional Chinese Medicine. Holistic health, nutrition, and vitality are cornerstones in my life and extends to my furry friends as well! Dogs are deemed man’s best friend for a reason; they are among the greatest teachers and companions. I will cherish my time with your animal(s) and treat them with the utmost respect. Health and cuddles are my top priorities! Since the passing of my own dog, I love to fit dog walks & snuggles into the nooks and crannies of my days as well as the occasional sleepover. The days that I don’t work I can be extremely flexible and even those that I do, my schedule is fairly easy to work around. Dogs and nature are really only when I feel the most at peace. Dogs are great for mental health! So until I can have my own again I will happily play the role of a distant auntie who loves them as her own. Whether it’s in my space or yours we will explore nature’s playground while being mindful of other people and dogs to maintain the comfort of all parties. I love hiking, long walks on the beach, and playing fetch with those furry friends that have endless energy. however, a slow, leisure stroll with the less active or elderly dogs as we stop for a latte and a pocket treat before heading back to snuggle on the couch for endless belly rubs. Multiple check ins and lots of pictures will be taken as I know our animals are like family!

“My dogs first sitter & I had a great experience, awesome communication and i got updates throughout which I really appreciated. I felt super safe leaving him with leilah! Will definitely be coming back to her next time around :)”
“Stephanie is amazing! Our 10month old husky puppy, Lumi, had an amazing time with her and her very well behaved dogs. I had to reach out to Stephanie on very short notice, and she was more than accommodating! I would recommend her to anyone and will be using her in the future!”

About: As lifelong dog owners ourselves, we understand how important it is to know your pet is safe, loved, and well cared for while you're away. We have experience volunteering at the humane society, and have spent the last few years pet sitting dogs with different personalities, routines, and needs. Whether they need long walks, playtime, or just some cuddles on the couch, our goal is to stick to your dog's normal routine and treat them like one of our own. Dan and I both work in the restaurant industry, which gives us a flexible schedule. We work 3–4 days a week and often work opposite shifts, so one of us is usually home or available throughout the day. If we do work the same day, our shifts are in the evening, so we still have the entire morning and afternoon to spend with your pet. We make it a priority to provide plenty of attention, playtime, and love so your pet feels comfortable with us. We want every pet to feel at home while in our care. We have a fenced-in backyard and live just minutes from the marsh and beach, which gives us plenty of opportunities for walks, outdoor adventures, and playtime. If your dog prefers to be the only pet or does not do well with other dogs, we are happy to provide care in your home instead. We understand that every owner has their own routines and expectations, and we will always respect your instructions and your pet’s needs. At our home, dogs are welcome on the couch, are surrounded by toys, and can hang out in backyard to sunbathe and roam free. Whether your pet is staying with us or we are caring for them in their own home, our goal is to create a safe, trusting, and stress-free environment for both owner and doggo.
“Jan was AMAZING! I’d give 6 stars if I could. Jan took Toby to the beach and sent us loads of photos. Toby was exhausted when we got home(as any dog owner knows, this is a good thing!). Also shows that Jan was out and about with our little one, which we are also super appreciate of! We will use Jan again the next time we are in Tahoe.”
“Melissa sent pictures of taking my girls on two walks, they were very tired by the time I picked them up which makes me happy. She also gave me a printed picture of them from there walk, it was a very kind gesture.”
“Lindsey was very attentive to our senior dog. She showed a lot of love and took very good care of him. He didn't want to leave! Thanks for showing him a wonderful time Lindsey!”

“Teresa was fantastic! We reached out just three days before needing care for our two dogs, and she was incredibly responsive and easy to communicate with from the start. She sent us photo updates while we were away, which we really appreciated and gave us peace of mind. We were visiting from out of town, but we come to the area quarterly and will absolutely be using Teresa again in the future. Highly recommend!”
About: I've owned Australian Cattle Dogs (red/blue heelers) my entire life. My beloved most recent 12 year old Red Heeler named Austin passed away last summer. I now travel too much for work to consider getting another pet myself, but would love to borrow some to get my four legged furry fix. I am self employed professional photographer with a flexible weekly schedule and I work from home, except when I am out photographing clients. I would love to be a trusted fill-in for your standards of interaction with your pal if our schedules align. Please note that I am NOT a good fit for pandemic animals that cannot be left unattended or have separation anxiety. If your dog cannot be left alone for a few hours at a time you'll need to look elsewhere. I have a fenced yard and a dog door for access. I would prefer to care for dogs in my home but open to house sitting also.
“Tim was AMAZING. He accepted a very last minute request to entertain Ruba while I was working. He took her on adventures and kept me in the loop the entire time. She enjoyed it so much, we booked again the next day. Fantastic communication, flexibility and pet friendship.”
“Adam was the best!!! We were scrambling to get a dog sitter last minute due to some change in family plans and he was the most helpful one! He was even willing to pick up Diesel closer to our destination since we were almost late for our trip. Will definitely book him next time!!”
“Teeda took thoughtful care of my dogs, took them on long walks, and sent me updates throughout the day! She was very attentive to how they behaved. Would definitely book with her again.”
“Kelly is AMAZING. She dog-sat my 3 month old puppy Layla and did a fantastic job. Layla didn't even want to leave at the end of the day. Kelly took the time to do a meet and greet and took lots of notes. She took Layla to a fenced in yard and played with her for hours. She gives all of her attention to her client which i really appreciated.”
About: I have been caring for others pets for over 10 years! Ranging from fish, cats, dogs, horses, etc. Spending time with animals is a passion for me and I look forward to meeting your pet! I am a yoga teacher which makes my schedule extremely flexible to care for your pet and all their needs! Looking forward to meeting you and your pet! I have a dog of my own who is extremely friendly and loves having new friends to adventure with! I strive to give your pet the best care while you are away!

About: I have owned a dog years ago. Miss having them around. I am only a dog aunt now. I am very active and love walks, runs, playing on the beach. I currently am not working and have more availability until August 19th. Starting then, I will be unavailable 7:30-3 Monday-Friday. I enjoy taking dogs for a walk in the morning and evening time. I live a pretty active lifestyle. I don’t mind taking your dog for a hike. I provide a safe, comfortable environment for pets, including a dedicated guest room where they can sleep. Air conditioning is available during warmer weather to ensure your pet's comfort. I also offer in home pet care and can travel to your residence if preferred. Pets in my care receive plenty of attention and exercise, including two daily walks, one in the morning and one in the evening. While I do not have a fenced yard, I am located less than 10 minutes from Kiva Beach and am happy to take dogs there for additional outdoor time and enrichment
About: taking care of attention to detail and listening to the small stuff that really makes a big difference. Being a clear communicator about all aspects of care It is important to make time for the animals because they have bodily rhythms and clocks that do not change just because someone else is in care I make sure to walk around the home slowly anticipating that the cat will try to trip me up. I am careful to hear all the noises from the animals
“Alena is fantastic! We were headed to Dry Tortugas Park in the Florida Keyes for the day and couldn't take our dog "JoJo" with us. The previous day she suggested a meet & greet (which I didn't even know was a "thing"). JoJo connected with her right away. And from the pictures she sent, JoJo is smiling and happy. I would definitely recommend her and would hire her again.”
“Lyndsey is such a lovely dog walker and care taker for dogs ! She treated my dog Beau as her own, and I always feel good leaving Beau when I go on vacation as I know he will get hair as much love fork Lyndsey !”
About: I’ve grown up surrounded by dogs my entire life, which means caring for four-legged family members is second nature to me. As my family and friend’s resident dog sitter, I have hands on experience with pups of all shapes, sizes, and personalities from high energy giants to tiny couch potatoes. I am passionate about keeping dogs active and healthy, so you can count on me to provide plenty of outdoor time and engaging walks. I look forward to meeting your furry friend and providing them with a safe, fun, and loving environment while you're away! As a full-time remote worker, my schedule is highly flexible! Pet care fits seamlessly into my day, allowing me to offer reliable windows for walks and drop-ins. My 'portable' office also makes me a great fit for house sitting, as I can work right from your home and keep your pet company. Weekends are equally open and flexible for whatever your pet needs! I believe the best environment for a pet is one that closely mirrors their usual routine. Whether I am house sitting or dropping in, I strictly follow your specific guidelines for feeding and house rules. During house sittings and drop-ins, I respect your home as if it were my own—keeping things clean, secure, and locked up. When we are out on walks, your dog will always be kept on a secure, standard leash, and I maintain a strict 'no greeting' policy with unfamiliar dogs to prevent any unpredictable interactions. I am deeply observant of body language to ensure your pet is happy, comfortable, and never stressed. I also believe that communication builds trust, so you can always expect timely photo updates and detailed Rover cards after every visit!
“Sandra did a great job with Charlie and cousin JoJo. She took them on a great walk. I worry about Charlie being home alone for so long so I'm very pleased that they get to get outside and get some exercise!”
About: I have a reliable track record of watching pets for family and friends, including watching dogs who require daily exercise and attention. I love cats and know how important it is that owners have peace of mind when leaving their animals for a vacation! I am currently working part time and hoping to find some local pet-sitting gigs! I am available for daily and drop in visits and find most people in South Lake Tahoe have at least one pet, including myself, and I am available to help give care as needed. I am currently available for visits to your home for pet watching duties as needed while you are away. I am detail-oriented, very reliable, and care that your animals are given thorough attention :)

“I was in a pinch looking for someone to walk my pups for a few days when I found Alli. She is WONDERFUL! We did a meet and greet beforehand and she brought her little pup too! My dogs loved her! I could tell from the photos she sent/videos that my pups just loved her. Excellent communication and felt very secure that my dogs were well taken care of as well. 10/10 would recommend!”
About: I've had pets ever since I was a kid, but my current place doesn't allow pets and life almost feels incomplete! I would love to take your pet on an adventure or provide in-home care :) All of my dogs have been hiking dogs and I am a big hiker myself, so I can also take more active/energetic dogs on hikes if needed! I am usually available all day on Mondays, in the evenings Tues-Thurs, and it varies on Fridays and Saturdays. Please reach out for specific dates :) I can walk your dog in your neighborhood or drive them to a dog-friendly trail for a hike if they need more exercise! I can care for your cat or other pets in your home as well :)
About: I have years of hands-on experience caring for dogs and cats of all ages, including puppies, seniors, and pets with special needs. I’m comfortable with feeding routines, medication, crate training, and keeping pets active, happy, and safe. I have a very flexible schedule, which allows me to adjust my day around the needs of the pets I’m caring for. Whether it’s early morning walks, midday drop-ins, or evening visits, I’m able to make pet care a priority throughout the week. When pets stay in my home, I keep their routine as familiar as possible. I follow their feeding schedule, provide plenty of potty breaks, and make time for daily walks and play. I keep a clean, pet-safe space and offer lots of companionship throughout the day. I monitor behavior, offer enrichment activities, and ensure they have a comfortable place to rest. I also send regular photos and updates so owners know their pet is happy and relaxed.

About: I’ve been around animals since a little girl. They’ve always caught my eye, i’ve dealt with little to huge doggies and they all been great! Taking care of them has always been a passion of mine. I’m currently working part time at a dog day care which i love and lets me have plenty of free time to watch your babies whenever needed. I’m very aware of how to take care of pets. Their safety in these circumstances mean a lot to me and if needed reassurance that your dog is okay always give a call or text!
About: I live in a private home with a large, fully fenced-in yard off of Ski Run Blvd with 4 female rescues. I have had and cared for dogs (large and small) as well as cats for 13 years and am loving, patient, and responsible. I love to get outside for runs down to the beach or to go hiking in the area, and try to bring at least one dog with me on every adventure. I have raised both puppies and cared for elderly dogs, including my own Golden Retriever Stewie who sadly passed away two years ago at the age of 12. I look forward to meeting and caring for your furry family members as well as I do my own! My schedule varies, but I keep it up to date in the app and can be flexible if anything comes up or if needs change. I have a fully fenced in, private backyard off of a quiet street that is perfect for lots of running around with my 3 dogs, who are incredibly friendly and get along with dogs of all ages and sizes (and are great at tiring out puppies!). My dogs are crate trained and usually are in their crates at night and when I am away for more than a couple hours, and I would be happy to do the same or whatever is preferred for yours.
“Kim is incredible! She was a fantastic pet sitter/dog walker/and adventurer with my two dogs while my family was vacationing in the area. She was kind, flexible and really helped ensure that the dogs were well taken care of, fed, swam, hiked and they absolutely loved her. I'd recommend Kim to anyone looking for pet care!”

As an over-protective parent of my golden doodle, she was always in constant contact with me while I was away. We are very grateful to have found such a wonderful place for our pooch to stay. We know he is in good hands and we don't have to stress about it.”
“Leilah was absolutely wonderful with our dogs! She was incredibly reliable, communicative, and clearly treated our pups like her own. I highly recommend her services and will definitely be booking with her again!”
“Teresa was great with my dog Pappy- she listened to what he liked and was able to take him trail hiking to play in the creek away from other dogs. She sent me photos and videos each day and made me feel at ease that he was well taken care of. Will definitely call her again should the need arise!”
About: We hit the trails daily and have plenty of safe, secure space to exercise your pup. I'm currently taking on some gig work to supplement my grad school aid as I finish my degree. Time is as precious as the angels by our side, and I’ll treat your pup like my own. For your peace of mind, I maintain an active Wilderness EMT certification, and my trail kit always includes canine-specific tourniquets and first aid. Flexible schedule. We prefer early, especially before a summer crowd, so that there is some safe space for everyone to run off leash and feel the freedom we all deserve. Selectively accepting a few well mannered companions. We'll keep a good eye. I have a couple spare tracking collars if that is a concern for off leash activity.
“Leaving your dogs is never easy, but Christine made it seamless for us and joyful for Willow and Jones. She treated them like her own, created a warm space, and shared the sweetest updates. We came home to relaxed, happy pups, which says everything.”
“Adam and Lauren are wonderful and they have a great space for Loki - he loves them!! I am especially grateful for their availability and care of him when I am away :-)”
“Breanna and Dan were the ultimate dog sitters! Their home is close to beautiful trails, marshes and beaches so it’s like your pup is on a vacation of their own in Tahoe. They took Roo on multiple adventures on her short 24 hour stay and consistently sent me photos and updates. They were very quick to get back to me and coordinating our schedules and booking was super smooth. Roo seemed very at home, comfortable and loved on, I would highly recommend Breanna and Dan as your dog sitters. I will be booking with them for any future Tahoe adventures.”

“Shane is incredible! This was my first time leaving my new rescue pup who is very shy, he won’t let many people even get close to him and Shane sent me a video of them cuddling on the couch. ❤️ Shane was so kind and gentle with my pup. I’m so grateful how awesome it worked out. Plus, his two dogs are very chill and well behaved which was also great for my pup to play with them. Can't recommend Shane enough! There's more, his location is also amazing for the dogs because it’s far from any busy streets and right by a trailhead. 🙌”
“Jennifer and her boyfriend, Jack, were great hosts for our dog Brody while we were skiing in town for a couple days! They were both super nice and genuine, very accommodating with a last minute daycare request, and were flexible with our schedule which was super helpful! They both asked questions the drop off, sent us a ton of pictures throughout the day, and overall made us feel very comfortable with having our dog there with them! I would absolutely recommend and we will use them again when we are in the area!”
“Highly recommended!! 🌟 Lauren is amazing! She took such good care of Henry, I wasn't sure if he'd want to come home! 🤣 We loved the daily photo updates of their out & about adventures or their indoor cozy seshs. Henry looked so happy & relaxed. Shout out to Lauren's good friend Charmaine who Henry also had the pleasure of hanging out with! Lauren, you are now on speed dial for pet sitting! 😉 Thank you so much for everything! Happy Happy Holidays & Happy New Year! 🎄🎆 pS... Henry says he misses you both! 🐕”
“Alexis was so sweet with the dogs. They stayed at her home and she kept them entertained and feeling safe and loved. One of my dogs gets anxious so she gave her toys and played soothing music. It was a great experience to leave them with her over the Holidays!”
