Personalized care for your dog or cat - Pilliken

Highly-rated overnight sitters - Pilliken
“This was by far the best decision my wife and I made. Elisabeth, is so great, welcoming and warming. Our Great Dane, Luna, had no problem what so ever and had so much fun. I look forward to our next appointment.”

“Perfect spot for my little dog! We had to travel for 10 days and we were very anxious about boarding her, because she is very gentle and used to a quiet environment. Sharon took such good care of her and sent us photos daily. We could tell that she really enjoyed her stay. I am so happy that I found this happy retreat for my puppy!!!”

“Michelle was so good with our dog. Good balance with communication and pictures and videos while we were on our vacation. She even helped reinforce good behaviors we are still working on with him. Very happy how she cared for our boy. Thanks so much!”

“The best review is the way my little guy went running to Michelle with his tail wagging when I dropped him off. He obviously enjoyed his stay with his doggie friends everything to explore in the big back yard.”
“Our dog Ellie had a great couple of days with Gabriel. She had walks and playing in the snow. Great feedback and updates with pictures while she was there, and she seemed very happy when we collected her. Would be very happy to use Gabriel again for dog sitting.”

“Sara was a great communicator and I felt like our dog was in good hands while we were away. I loved getting daily photos and updates. It was also reassuring knowing she’s a vet tech and could tend to anything concerning. Will definitely look to book again when need to be away.”

“Jenn and her family provided great care for my GSP. He returned smiling and ecstatic! Jenn is very experienced with dogs and has her space is well thought out to accommodate different dogs.”

“Pepe stayed with Adam for a few days when I went on a work trip. Super easy communication during the entire process leading up to dropping Pepe off. Once I did, Adam did a great job, taking Pepe out for runs on his one-wheel and hiking around the area. Would definitely recommend!”

“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.”

“This is my second time working with Melissa, first time with an overnight stay. She continued to be over-communicative, sending photos and updates frequently throughout the day. I never worry about my pup when she’s with Melissa, which is the best compliment I can give!”


“Teeda is awesome! Our dog Willow loved her stay with her. We were really happy with how Teeda sent us pictures of Willow throughout the stay. I am also a Rover sitter and I am very impressed w Teeda. Thanks for taking such good care of our girl;-)”
“Stephanie took amazing care of my pup. I got photo and message updates everyday. It really felt like he became a part of her family for the week. Thank you, Stephanie!”

“Brett was awesome with my dog Scout. He was a great communicator and flexible with drop off time. Scout had a great time hanging with Brett at home watching sports and even went on two different hikes in the area. Scout came home exhausted and happy. Would definitely use Brett again !!”

“emily was amazing! our nervous pup walked right into her house and gave her little hand kisses which is always a great sign. emily was super communicative and sent lots of pictures and updates throughout the day. she wanted to keep the pups on the same routine that they have at home which was so sweet. would book with her again when we’re back in the tahoe area.”

About: We have had dogs in our home our entire life. They are always a family member and treated with the best of love and care. I come from a family of breeders and a hunting and show dogs. Our seniors are loved and cared for savoring every last day. We have a ranch with plenty of room for your fur baby to run and explore as well as a huge dog run. We offer different places to keep them safe if running off leash is not the best for your baby. I am a self-employed realtor, who works from home. My husband is a rancher and contractor so one of us is typically home there are times of course when we leave but everybody is locked up safe and sound and they are also welcome to take the car ride with us should we need to run some errands. if it’s important that nobody ever leaves your baby, we can make that accommodation as well. We have a 12 x 24 kennel with multiple dog houses we have kennels of different sizes. We also have a barn with 12 x 12 stalls. We have a fenced in deck that is 30 x 50 so there are many opportunities for your baby to be outside in the fresh air And still be safe. If your dog is an inside dog, we will keep him inside with us and he will be warm and cozy at bedtime.
“Jessica was wonderful! She responded quickly to my last-minute request and really saved me when another sitter had to cancel. Drop-off and pick-up were super easy, and she was great to work with from start to finish. I really appreciated her flexibility and responsiveness—highly recommend!”

About: I have been a volunteer trainer with the Sierra At Tahoe Avalanche Dogs since I was about 10. My father runs the dog program so I grew up being taught how to train, take care of, and watch over dogs since I was a toddler. At the ski mountain I helped drill the dogs to find subjects in the snow, played, walked, fed, took to the bathroom, and watched over the dogs ages ranging from puppies to senior dogs. My family also has three dogs and three cats all of I have assisted in training, and most of the time look after on my own. I recently left my job so I am open full time with my schedule to take part in pet care. On some days I do need to watch my own animals since my parents work full time, but even then I am always available for even just a check in if needed! I make sure my pets have a set in feeding time as well as they have a signal for bathroom breaks, even if they do not show me they need to go I will periodically let them outside or take them on a walk. Besides just food and bathroom I love to work on skills, tricks, and just playing with the dogs throughout the day as to make sure they are enriched and happy. These qualities go for all animals I may watch too! I pride myself in being able to recognize their behavior so I can adapt for them what they need or want!
“Sara's is the perfect place for our dog, Maggie. There's lots of open space and fresh air, a lovely pond and a great covered patio where she can be outdoors and supervised. We previously had experience with a dog sitter who took in a large number of dogs at the same time as Maggie, and Maggie reacted negatively to that situation. We sincerely appreciate the fact that Sara is willing to limit Maggie's visit to just Maggie and Sara's own sweet dog. Maggie gets lots of walks, lots of love and attention, and comes home happy. We will continue to use Sara as our go-to, favorite dog sitter!”

Whether your cat is playful, shy, or independent, I adjust my care to fit their needs. My goal is to make sure your cat feels secure, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away so you don’t have to worry.

About: I've always had personal pets and have been the designated petsitter for my neighborhood since i was a child. I've spent the last decade professionally training & boarding all types of dogs, cat, and falconry birds. I'm currently open and available all days of the week. My life is my dogs/family and there is always room for more furry (& feathery, scaley, ect) friends. 💜 I have a fenced garden area and 4 dogs at home who are crate trained. I can accommodate most requests and love a schedule & routine, whether in my home or in yours.
“Wow! What a great experience we had with Adam and Lauren. It was way above and beyond our expectations. We couldn’t say enough about their generosity and service. When we told Adam that we are having our anniversary, he made himself more available and making our trip more memorable. We highly recommend their service. We really like the way how Adam meets up first with our dog, and his knowledge about dog behavior and needs. The walks he takes our dog on were breathtaking views. You can see that they really love animals. So now, we have found our dog sitter for our dog, Rocky. So if you’re heading to South Lake Tahoe, and you need a dog sitter, we highly recommend Adam and Lauren.”

“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.”

“Melissa is amazing! She sent updates throughout the day and provided tons of pictures and videos! By far the best rover we have ever worked with. She really goes above and beyond and provides amazing care!”

“Sara is obviously great with animals and I’m so thankful she was able to watch my high energy dog on short notice. Perfect yard and she took him on walks during the day. Will definitely book again!”

“Lucky had the best time at Sara's beautiful home. She took great care of him. It was his first time at a sitters and Sara made him feel at home. Thank you Sara. When I'm in the area again I will definitely call you again.”

“Michelle was great with my dog Oakley! I was so thankful she was able to take him on short notice and accommodate whatever we needed... Her house is on a large property that's fully enclosed and in a beautiful gated community in the hills. Whether you have a big dog that loves to run around and interact with other friendly animals or a small dog that prefers to spend time inside close to people, Michelle's house is an awesome place for pets! My dog has major separation anxiety, but instead of stressing out like he normally does when he knows I'm leaving him, Oakley immediately settled in and started exploring the property with one of her dogs right after we got there! I could tell from Michelle's updates and photos that Oakley was really enjoying his time there and felt comfortable he would be well taken care of if he needed to stay even longer in the future. The location of her house turned out to be really convenient and close to where I was going, but even if I'm further away the next time I'm in town and need a sitter, I know that Michelle will be our first choice for sure!”

About: I have loved animals my whole life and have had many pets; dogs, cats, horses, birds, rabbits, sheep and more. I thoroughly enjoy being with animals, loving and caring for them. Some of my first jobs were at animal clinics, where I learned a lot about caring for animals. I was in FFA as a youth, where I raised and showed sheep, and where I also learned a lot. In my younger years I had many horses. I learned how to care for them, feeding, exercising, and cleaning up after them, etc! I learned responsibility, in addition to a deep love of animals. All of my experiences with my own animals, have made me a knowledgeable, responsible and compassionate animal care provider. I am currently semi-retired from working in the hospitality industry. I have plenty of time and I would thoroughly enjoy taking care of your beloved pets. I have an adorable mini schnauzer, Dudley, and a domestic short hair cat, Pete. I love them both so much and get so much enjoyment out of having and caring for them. We love cuddling, talking, and playing. I make sure they have the food, treats, exercise and attention they desire, and are well taken care of and will treat yours with the same love and respect that I show to my own pets.
“Emily provides a safe and comfortable environment for our pup plus a nice backyard to play in. We can always tell how well our pup is cared for when we make a return visit and he runs to the front door wagging his tail. Great communication and sharing of updates, definitely will use her again when we visit South Tahoe.”

“Lauren was a life saver with a last-minute booking. She responded quickly and was very communicative throughout the booking. Not only was she extremely friendly and professional, but she also went above and beyond with treats and walks to the beach. She was very thorough with our instructions in the app and asked a number of questions to ensure he would have the best time. When we came to pick him up, he didn't want to leave! I highly recommend Lauren and only wish we had found her sooner.”

About: Been around dogs my whole life. Fast forward to when I went off to college, since 2014 I’ve been dog sitting whether it’s daily walks or overnight stays with all types of dogs. Through my own dog’s experience , I’ve cultivated a caring, dependable, attentive way with animals that my friends have put full trust in and know their pets are taken care of worry free when they’re with me. So I’ve decided to expand my experience to rover. Feel free to reach out with a questions you may have and I look forward to providing a safe and fun experience for your pup(s). Fortunately, My work allows for me to lots of free time throughout the week so that I’m able care for fur babies all day. I have a fully fenced yard , security cameras set up and auto locking doors to keep you fur baby happy and safe while they are cared for by me. I’m home crates available too.
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.

“This was by far the best decision my wife and I made. Elisabeth, is so great, welcoming and warming. Our Great Dane, Luna, had no problem what so ever and had so much fun. I look forward to our next appointment.”

“Perfect spot for my little dog! We had to travel for 10 days and we were very anxious about boarding her, because she is very gentle and used to a quiet environment. Sharon took such good care of her and sent us photos daily. We could tell that she really enjoyed her stay. I am so happy that I found this happy retreat for my puppy!!!”

“Michelle was so good with our dog. Good balance with communication and pictures and videos while we were on our vacation. She even helped reinforce good behaviors we are still working on with him. Very happy how she cared for our boy. Thanks so much!”

“The best review is the way my little guy went running to Michelle with his tail wagging when I dropped him off. He obviously enjoyed his stay with his doggie friends everything to explore in the big back yard.”
“Our dog Ellie had a great couple of days with Gabriel. She had walks and playing in the snow. Great feedback and updates with pictures while she was there, and she seemed very happy when we collected her. Would be very happy to use Gabriel again for dog sitting.”

“Sara was a great communicator and I felt like our dog was in good hands while we were away. I loved getting daily photos and updates. It was also reassuring knowing she’s a vet tech and could tend to anything concerning. Will definitely look to book again when need to be away.”

“This is my second time working with Melissa, first time with an overnight stay. She continued to be over-communicative, sending photos and updates frequently throughout the day. I never worry about my pup when she’s with Melissa, which is the best compliment I can give!”

“Stephanie took amazing care of my pup. I got photo and message updates everyday. It really felt like he became a part of her family for the week. Thank you, Stephanie!”

“Brett was awesome with my dog Scout. He was a great communicator and flexible with drop off time. Scout had a great time hanging with Brett at home watching sports and even went on two different hikes in the area. Scout came home exhausted and happy. Would definitely use Brett again !!”

“emily was amazing! our nervous pup walked right into her house and gave her little hand kisses which is always a great sign. emily was super communicative and sent lots of pictures and updates throughout the day. she wanted to keep the pups on the same routine that they have at home which was so sweet. would book with her again when we’re back in the tahoe area.”

About: We have had dogs in our home our entire life. They are always a family member and treated with the best of love and care. I come from a family of breeders and a hunting and show dogs. Our seniors are loved and cared for savoring every last day. We have a ranch with plenty of room for your fur baby to run and explore as well as a huge dog run. We offer different places to keep them safe if running off leash is not the best for your baby. I am a self-employed realtor, who works from home. My husband is a rancher and contractor so one of us is typically home there are times of course when we leave but everybody is locked up safe and sound and they are also welcome to take the car ride with us should we need to run some errands. if it’s important that nobody ever leaves your baby, we can make that accommodation as well. We have a 12 x 24 kennel with multiple dog houses we have kennels of different sizes. We also have a barn with 12 x 12 stalls. We have a fenced in deck that is 30 x 50 so there are many opportunities for your baby to be outside in the fresh air And still be safe. If your dog is an inside dog, we will keep him inside with us and he will be warm and cozy at bedtime.
“Jessica was wonderful! She responded quickly to my last-minute request and really saved me when another sitter had to cancel. Drop-off and pick-up were super easy, and she was great to work with from start to finish. I really appreciated her flexibility and responsiveness—highly recommend!”

About: I have been a volunteer trainer with the Sierra At Tahoe Avalanche Dogs since I was about 10. My father runs the dog program so I grew up being taught how to train, take care of, and watch over dogs since I was a toddler. At the ski mountain I helped drill the dogs to find subjects in the snow, played, walked, fed, took to the bathroom, and watched over the dogs ages ranging from puppies to senior dogs. My family also has three dogs and three cats all of I have assisted in training, and most of the time look after on my own. I recently left my job so I am open full time with my schedule to take part in pet care. On some days I do need to watch my own animals since my parents work full time, but even then I am always available for even just a check in if needed! I make sure my pets have a set in feeding time as well as they have a signal for bathroom breaks, even if they do not show me they need to go I will periodically let them outside or take them on a walk. Besides just food and bathroom I love to work on skills, tricks, and just playing with the dogs throughout the day as to make sure they are enriched and happy. These qualities go for all animals I may watch too! I pride myself in being able to recognize their behavior so I can adapt for them what they need or want!
“Sara's is the perfect place for our dog, Maggie. There's lots of open space and fresh air, a lovely pond and a great covered patio where she can be outdoors and supervised. We previously had experience with a dog sitter who took in a large number of dogs at the same time as Maggie, and Maggie reacted negatively to that situation. We sincerely appreciate the fact that Sara is willing to limit Maggie's visit to just Maggie and Sara's own sweet dog. Maggie gets lots of walks, lots of love and attention, and comes home happy. We will continue to use Sara as our go-to, favorite dog sitter!”

“I felt so at ease leaving my Breeze with Lisette. She has experience with all kinds of dogs and my timid Breeze was no exception. She sent me pictures and reassured me that Breeze was doing good. I highly recommend Lisette for watching your doggies.”
