“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.”
About: I am a dog mommy of a medium 14 year old pit mix, Roxy. I love all dogs and have family with everything from a Chihuahua (with no teeth) to a dopey Great Dane named after prince George. I have babysat all of their dogs and love to play outside with them. I like to run and hike with my dogs and we like to be silly together. She is getting older (14 years old) so she is not as active as she once was. I'm an educator, so my own pup is used to me being gone during the day, but because of holidays and summers I'm also free frequently. My own dog in the past struggled with stubborness and reactivity, so I know how to work with stubborn dogs and easy going dogs of all sorts. I have also worked with geriatric dogs and know what a struggle it can be when dogs are getting into old age. As an educator I work Monday through Friday (most weeks) during the day, and am home evenings, but have extensive availability weekends and holidays. My schedule can be somewhat flexible I am available to come to your home if your dog needs some company or can have your pup at my place. I also have transportation for taking your pet to the beach, river, or parks. I am happy to run, walk, or just hang out with your pets.
“I cannot recommend Jade & Dain enough! They took wonderful care of my pup with such care, love, and attention that it truly put my mind at ease while I was away. They kept me in the loop with daily pictures & updates which we’re highlight of my day while I was away. When I picked her up my dog was happy, well-exercised, and clearly well taken care of. Jade & Dain went above and beyond to ensure everything was perfect, even understanding some of her quirks and making adjustments to keep the entire pack happy. If you're looking for a reliable, trustworthy, and genuinely caring dog sitter, Jade & Dain are your people! I'll definitely be reaching out to them again! Thank you so much Jade & Dain 🐕🫶🏼❤️ I truly think T was sad to leave you guys - she seemed to really love it with you and I am so grateful!!”
“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”
“Patty and Randy provided an excellent boarding experience for our dog Cookie! We had no hesitations from the moment we dropped Cookie off and saw how excited she was to see Patty and Randy's dogs who she had met the week before for a meet and greet. During Cookie's stay we were so happy to receive videos and pictures which confirmed that she was having a great time. Patty also reached out during Cookie's stay to ask us some questions to ensure she understood Cookie's habits and needs. We are so happy to have found Patty and Randy to board Cookie and thank them, BellaMae, Bizu, and Bindi Lou for the time, attention, and fun play they provided Cookie to ensure she felt secure, relaxed, and happy during her visit. It is so appreciated!!”
“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.”
“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!”
“Tim was INCREDIBLE!! We came to Tahoe for a wedding and last minute our plans for our dog’s care fell through. Tim not only took her last minute, but he didn’t just take care of her. He loved on her, took her hiking and to the lake, and made sure we knew she was being well taken care of. I was grateful to know she was in good hands and I never once worried about her the entire time because he was incredibly communicative and sent some great pictures of her. I can’t thank him enough and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a pet sitter in the Tahoe area.”
“My boys Hank and Clifford had a great time! Gina did a great job keeping us updated by sending photos and videos! She’s a dog person which is added comfort. I definitely recommend!”
“Melissa is the best! Great communication and very dog friendly environment. This was my first time ever leaving Gus overnight & she went above and beyond to make sure he felt right at home. He and Cody were instant BFFs & it’s great to know he has someone who makes him feel so safe and comfortable when I am not able to be with him.”
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.
“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!”
“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 :-)”
“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.”
“Faith watched our 3 dogs in her home for 1 week, The house was clean and the dogs had the their own room they stayed in which was also clean. She kept in good communication with us, sending photos of their stay. Would recommend Faith to watch your pet.”
“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!”
“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.”
“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!”

“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!”
“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.”
“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!”
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.
“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: My family has had cats as pets from before I was born. I have 2 cats myself. One is named Kk and the other is named Tommy, whom is special needs. He had a thrombosis that caused one of his legs to lose circulation. The vets answer for me was I needed to put him down. I cried for a whole weekend and then started wondering if there were other options. Using my psychic abilities I came up with amputation. When I asked if they could amputate his leg they immediately said yes! And now I have a 3 legged cat. I love him so much and have gone to the ends of the earth for all my pets. Kk is my fat princess. She is beautiful and so soft. She is my daughters emotional support animal but she has gone away to college so I got to keep her. She loves me so much, she stares into my soul and purs and drools on an everyday basis lol.
“Marian is wonderful... She came ahead to get a feel for the kitties and their environment. She has a very gentle spirit and took great care of my fur babies. I will be choosing her again ?”
“Alena was perfect. She was thoughtful, flexible with timing and our cat was happy when we got home. We have been on trips when you could tell they did not get attention when you returned, but not this trip. THANK YOU Alena! Highly recommend.”
About: I’ve had cats growing up my whole life! My first pet I rescued was a sick kitten, who required daily care as it recovered! Recently started crocheting to create custom clothes for my kitties!
“Melissa watched my cat for a week while my family vacationed in Tahoe. She did a great job, and made sure my cat got lots of love and was comfortable. She sent me nightly pictures and was responsive to my messages. I recommend!”

“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!”

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.”
“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!!”

“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!”
“Patty & Randy were perfect dog sitters for Beckham. They couldn't have been more welcoming. Beckham is usually a little shy, but he adapted quickly to their beautiful environment and their other three small dogs. We look forward to using their services again. It was a comfort to know he was in loving hands.”
“Very sweet, really cared about our dogs! It was our first time leaving our babies with anyone and we couldn’t have found better people to watch them. Will definitely be back”

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.”

About: As an Adventure Specialist, I offer your pet much more than standard neighborhood walks; I provide enrichment hikes and structured play designed to satisfy both their mind and body. I am highly proficient in reading dog body language to ensure safety in new environments and adapt the pacing and duration of our adventures to suit your pet's specific needs. For shy or anxious friends, I bring a reliable calm energy that fosters a quick, loving, and trusting bond. You can always depend on my professional commitment, which includes strict punctuality and adherence to all routines, expert handling of customized care (such as medication or specific diets), and preparedness with basic pet first aid. Most importantly, I guarantee your peace of mind through prompt, detailed communication, including photo and text updates of all our happy adventures! Pet care isn't just a part of my schedule; it is my schedule. As a full-time sitter, my days are structured around the needs of my animals under my care. This means there are no conflicting work meetings or commutes, allowing me to fully commit to your pet's schedule. I dedicate morning, midday, and evening blocks specifically to walks, feedings, and play sessions, with plenty of time in between for communication and customized care. When choosing House Sitting, your pet receives my full commitment to deliver Epic Adventures and Warm Hugs right in their familiar environment, which I think is the best choice for anxious or multi-pet homes. As your pet sitter, I like to get a detailed overview of your pets' exact routine (meals, beds, schedule) so I can minimize stress and ensure maximum comfort. Our days are filled with Heartfelt Hikes on familiar trails, keeping our adventures safe and enriching, and all potty breaks are timely and consistent. Beyond premium pet care, you gain added home security and peace of mind, as I handle basic home needs like mail and plant care with the same professional attention.

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
About: Dogs have always been part of my life. My family has trained working dogs, including avalanche and search-and-rescue dogs, which gave me a deep respect for canine behavior, safety, and communication. I’ve owned high-energy breeds like huskies and now have a playful golden retriever. Whether your dog loves long walks or quiet companionship, I’ll make sure they feel safe, loved, and happy. I work from home as an independent contractor, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of availability for walks and check-ins throughout the day. I love being outside, enjoy longer walks, and I’m currently training for an ultramarathon—so your dog will always have a willing, energetic walking partner. Your dog’s safety and comfort always come first. I take time to learn each dog’s routine, energy level, and any special needs so I can keep their day feeling familiar and stress-free. I use leashes on all walks unless otherwise requested, avoid unsafe areas, and closely monitor weather and trail conditions here in Tahoe.
About: Hi! I’m Nicole, and this is my partner Alex. We both work fully remote! We spent the last few years traveling abroad. We’ve landed in Lake Tahoe for the foreseeable future! We provide a safe, active, and loving environment for your pets while you’re away. Since we are both fully remote, your fur baby gets consistent attention, not just quick check-ins. Our days naturally include multiple walks (morning, mid-day, and evening), outdoor time, and plenty of downtime for cuddles and relaxation. We live an active lifestyle and love having a furry friends alongside us for walks, fresh air, and exploring, but we’re just as intentional about creating a calm, secure space at home so your pet feels comfortable and settled. We’ve cared for pets for over 10 years, including friends, family, Rover clients and other pet sitting platforms, in both our home and theirs. We’re very attentive and always know where your pet is, so you never have to worry about safety or supervision. Our goal is simple: when you’re away, your pet isn’t just being watched, they’re having their own little vacation. If you’re looking for reliable, communicative sitters who will treat your pet like their own, we’d love to help. Our daily step goal is 8-10k steps so walks are a breeze starting first thing in the morning and after every meal. Nicole loves to create a calm environment in the home and cozy up on the couch. Alex is very active and will go for hikes, longer walks, and loves play. We have stairs in our home that lead down to our bedroom as well as to get down to the front door. If your pup has mobility issues, they’ll need to be okay with being carried up and down
About: I grew up on a farm locally outside the treasure valley taking care of an assortment of animals, learning to nurture and provide a loving hand. I love working with dogs seeing each of their personalities come to light. I want people to feel comfortable knowing their dog is in good care and with someone that you can trust. In addition, my dad was a vet so I have my fair share of experiences first hand of vet practice from administering oral medication to emergency c sections. This allows me to be more vigilant and aware to your pets to keep them healthy happy and safe. I graduated from Boise State University with a degree in kinesiology and minor in business and marketing. I have flexible schedule and would love to help you out in your next pet sitting needs. I’m currently working part time and focus in on my wealth with daily exercise and walks allowing for flexibility to tend to your pet’s needs. Staying at a clients home, I ensure respecting the place keeping it clean and tidy. I confirm with the owner any additional needs to be taken care ensuring the best experience.
“Carrie is awesome. When I sent her a message, she responded back super fast and is great about communicating when she can or cannot walk my dog. She is always punctual and has a wonderful personality. 😊”
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!
“Angelique was awesome. She took very good care of our senior dogs and checked in whenever there was a question. We would definitely recommend her to any pet owners out there.”
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.

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.

“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.”

“Tim was INCREDIBLE!! We came to Tahoe for a wedding and last minute our plans for our dog’s care fell through. Tim not only took her last minute, but he didn’t just take care of her. He loved on her, took her hiking and to the lake, and made sure we knew she was being well taken care of. I was grateful to know she was in good hands and I never once worried about her the entire time because he was incredibly communicative and sent some great pictures of her. I can’t thank him enough and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a pet sitter in the Tahoe area.”
“My boys Hank and Clifford had a great time! Gina did a great job keeping us updated by sending photos and videos! She’s a dog person which is added comfort. I definitely recommend!”
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.
“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!”
“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 :-)”
“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.”

“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.”
“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 keep booking Kelly as she is wonderful to both of our dogs. She sends lots of pics, lots of updates and very flexible and accommodating. She takes them for hikes, makes sure they each get play time. The dogs love her.”
