“I am so happy Charly got to stay with Kathy and her dog Gypsy. My dog Charly had a blast. Kathy was attentive to Charly's anxiety and made sure he ate and sent me plenty of pictures which made me so happy. I would definitely have Charly stay with Kathy again! Thanks Kathy!”
“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.”
“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 !!!”
“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’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.
“This review is long overdue! Gina and Erik watched our two golden retrievers while in Tahoe for a family gathering in May 2023. They treated our dogs like their own and sent us lots of updates, photos and videos of our dogs during their stay. Our dogs looked SO HAPPY and clearly LOVED Gina and Erik. During a thunderstorm, one of our dogs was scared and Gina made a rub of essentials oils to help calm him, and Erik gave him hugs on the couch. They gave them such love, pets and hugs and we couldn't have asked for better dog sitters during our time in Tahoe. HIGHLY RECOMMEND! Thank you Gina and Erik!”
“Faith is an absolute gem of a dog sitter, and I genuinely can’t recommend her enough. I reached out last minute — the kind of request most sitters would turn down without a second thought — and she said yes without hesitation. What really stood out was how thoughtfully she handled Atlas’s anxiety. She didn’t treat it as an inconvenience; she approached it with patience and genuine care, and it made such a difference knowing my pup was in calm, understanding hands rather than just being “watched.” On top of that, she was incredibly flexible with pick-up and drop-off times, and even made a special exception for me when I needed a time outside her normal hours. She didn’t make me feel like a burden for asking — she just made it work. That kind of grace is rare. And the updates! She check-ins with photos and messages that were so reassuring. You could tell she wasn’t just going through the motions — she actually cared how he was doing. If you have a dog with any special needs or anxiety, Faith is your person. She went above and beyond in every way. Thank you Faith! 🐾”
“Bean had another great stay with Addie last week - she sent plenty of pics as usual, and Bean seemed happy when I picked him up. She says they get lots of cuddles together when he visits, which I know makes Bean extra happy :)”
“Thank you Randy and Patty for taking such good care of Bear. They definitely care about dogs and would highly recommend them and their rates are wonderful.”
“Ron was the best, let us meet up before hand to check the place out and was very welcoming from the start. He was flexible with my drop off and pick up times, sent photos every night, and Reggie seemed to smiling in every photo. Highly recommend.”
“Megan took such great care of our two high maintenance doggies. Nina got all the cuddles and people time she wanted. Jack (our shy puppy) got comfortable with other dogs, playing with them and even sleeping side by side. It's great to get so many pics while we were away and to see them both so happy. Thanks so much Megan - truly appreciate the loving care you provide! Reid, Serita, Jack and Nina”
“Kendra was so great! We had a quick overnight trip as we were traveling through town and she was so easy to work with. She sent pictures to update us and we could tell our dog was SO comfortable with her. We will definitely reach to Kendra again next time we travel through.”
“This is the second time we booked with Susan. Susan and her family were perfect for my high-energy baby. They gave him more play time and attention that he probably gets at home! We highly recommend her!”
“We were so lucky to find Christina last minute. She was so wonderful with Luke and her kids also love to help out and watch the dogs! We had a delay in travel and Christina was super flexible and accommodating.”
“Winnie loves to stay with Aaron, Nicole and the kids. They take him out and take great care of him. We travel much more comfortably knowing Winnie is being loved and cared for by people who pay attention to detail and respect whatever rules we may have for Winnie. He comes back from being with them exhausted and happy and most importantly safe. We’ll continue to work with them as long as they’re providing the service! Thank you guys :)”

“Ann Marie was super communicative and very easy to work with! She spent a lot of time with my cat on during her check-ins which I greatly appreciated, and sent 5+ photos every day which was also amazing. I highly recommend her for your cat sitting needs :).”
“Adam was great! Very kind and quick to respond when I had questions, which put my mind at ease while I was away. Will definitely be booking Adam again in the future.”
“Michelle was amazing. She stayed in our place, looked after our two kitties, and was a dream throughout it all. She even made cookies that she left for us to come home to! Our cats loved Michelle. I loved how great Michelle was about communication, how easy she was to work with... I honestly cannot say enough good things. I would not hesitate to book Michelle in the future, ever.”
About: I used to live with two cats before I moved to Mammoth - one used to be a street cat & scared easily. The other was super curious & playful. I’ve cared for a wide range of cats - from cuddly to independent. From playful to fierce. I even have experience with senior cats who need diapers & medication. I love cats & love to give them the care they deserve.
“Mae was great with our two very attention loving cats, Cy and Rio, during our recent trip to the Bay Area. We will definitely ask her to stay with them again next time we travel. She was able to stay overnight with them which was terrific!”
“My dog is picky about people. He immediately felt comfortable with Alison. She is very kind and caring and he felt that as soon as he met her . You can tell she takes such great care of the dogs while you are gone. I saw all her little notes she takes to make sure that she didn’t forget anything. I had a missed flight connection and she responded immediately and was so flexible to add another visit on the spot. I am so glad I found her!”
About: I’ve cared for cats with all kinds of personalities and needs from playful and energetic to shy and independent. I’m comfortable with feeding, litter box care, giving basic medication’s, and playtime.
“Mariah provided the best care for senior kitty, our home, and plants while we were away for vacation. It’s hard to leave our older girl who takes meds several times a day and has lots of needs, but we were at ease with her in Mariah’s care. She gave her so much love and attention, while also being very communicative and respectful of our space. Thank you Mariah!”
“Jaqueline has been wonderful! We have rebooked her a couple times now and she is always so flexible! My dogs love her! She is always on time and very great at communicating how the dogs are doing during her visits! Plus she somehow always gets the best pictures of them! I definitely recommend her!”
About: My name is Hannah Sweet and I love dogs :) I have an Australian Shepard who is turning 15 and loves to go on long walks and runs. I enjoy walking, running, talking and playing with dogs! I am quite active but have availability throughout the week and on some weekends. I have experience dog sitting and house sitting. I am a morning person so I can do early morning walks/runs whenever necessary. I work remotely most days of the week so I can work from anywhere. I do have a dog at home who is not friendly with other dogs. I would prefer to go to the dogs home or take them to the coffee house or gym with me to spend the day when necessary :) I often travel on the weekends and would be happy to take a pup with me as long as they are comfortable in the car or if I am not traveling I will be home and happy to care for your pup in their normal environment. I am gentle and allow pets to come to me and get comfortable before I approach them. I have a gated yard which pets can roam in as long as my dog is not home. Otherwise, I am very comfortable caring for pets in their own home and doing house sitting as well.
“Cassidy was incredible! She was quick to jump in at the last minute, super responsive, and not only took excellent care of our dog, but was sure to let us know how everything was going! Will definitely book with her again—can’t thank you enough Cassidy!”
“Malia was kind enough to stay with our kitty for 10 days and kept us updated everyday. We really appreciated her attention to detail on the care instructions and she is just a pleasure to deal with in general.”
About: Hi, I’m Julia! I’m 44 years old and originally from France, and I’d love to be your pet’s new favorite sitter 🐾 I have many years of experience caring for animals, especially dogs. My own dog lived to almost 17 years old, so I’m very familiar with everything from playful pups to senior care, including medications, special diets, and extra patience when needed. I genuinely love being outdoors and going on walks, and I always make sure each pet gets the exercise, attention, and routine they’re used to—whether that’s regular potty breaks, feeding schedules, or just lots of cuddles and companionship. I live right by the national forest, which is perfect for safe, enriching walks in nature. In addition to dogs, I also have experience with cats, fish, and pet rats, so I’m happy to care for a variety of pets. Since I work mostly from home, I’m able to provide plenty of supervision and attention throughout the day—your pet will never feel alone. I also offer in-home visits, where I can care for your pets in their own environment and help with small tasks like watering plants and keeping things in order while you’re away. I treat every pet like family and always aim to make them feel relaxed and loved while you’re away. Feel free to reach out with any questions—I’d love to meet you and your pet! Pet care fits very naturally into my daily routine since I work mostly from home and have a flexible schedule. I’m able to plan my day around the pets in my care, making sure they get regular walks, feeding, potty breaks, and plenty of attention throughout the day. I enjoy starting and ending my day with walks, especially since I live right by the national forest, so it’s easy to give dogs fresh air and exercise in a calm, natural environment. I’m also home most of the time, which allows me to provide consistent supervision, companionship, and care. For in-home visits, I’m able to adjust my schedule to match each pet’s routine and needs, whether that’s morning, midday, or evening visits. I always aim to keep pets on their usual schedule so they feel comfortable and stress-free while you’re away. I always care for pets as if they were my own, making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved whether they are in my home or their own. In my home, pets get a calm, relaxed environment with lots of attention throughout the day since I work mostly from home. I follow their usual routines as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, potty breaks, and any specific care instructions. Living near the national forest also allows me to provide peaceful, enriching walks in nature for dogs who enjoy being outdoors. In my clients’ homes, I make sure to respect both the pet’s routine and the home itself. I stick closely to your instructions so your pet experiences as little disruption as possible. I’m attentive to details like meals, medications, exercise, and companionship, and I also make sure your home is kept tidy. I’m happy to help with small additional tasks like watering plants, bringing in mail, and keeping things in order while you’re away. My goal is always to make pets feel secure and cared for, and to give owners peace of mind knowing everything is in good hands.

“Sarah was wonderful! My husband and I were visiting the Lake Tahoe area for our anniversary and needed a doggy sitter for our miniature Australian Shepherd, Jack. Jack is a very shy dog with new people. Sarah was very understanding and patient with him and ended up winning his heart.”
“Kathy was really great with our two little lap dogs, while we went skiing for the day. We got photos of the dogs outside in the yard and relaxing on laps inside ;). Kathy was very professional and communicative. Thank you so much!”

“Natali was amazing she was responsive, professional as well as empathetic and caring. She planned fun activities (walk, beach) but then was able to adapt when our guy was having anxiety from thunderstorms and needed a more chill day. I would highly recommend Natalie, she gave us peace of mind and our dog had an awesome time:)”
“Faith is so nice for taking on our pup. I love the constant communication and I don’t have to worry about my pup when he’s with her. When I pick him up, he doesn’t want to leave. Definitely recommend faith if you’re looking for a sitter.”
About: I have expert experience in pet care and a deep love for animals. I'm attentive and dedicated to making sure your pets are happy and well-cared for. Plus, I love taking dogs on outdoor adventures! I am currently working only 6-10 hours a week outside from my home. Plenty of time available to pamper and look after your beloved pets. I have 3+ open spaces with grass and shade for potty breaks at the complex and a barred balcony for fresh air and natural indoor light. I have one friendly female dog who loves people and plays cooperatively with other dogs, including cats. There's also a male cat who enjoys playtime and gets along well with other animals. Certainly, I will remember the following: Gaia and Maro could be separated from your pet if that is something we communicate.
“We rebooked with Donna for our summer visit after a wonderful experience during a winter visit to the Tahoe area. Our dogs had a wonderful time and Donna is easy to coordinate with, highly communicative when the dogs are with her and, most importantly, very caring of the dogs. Highly recommended!”
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.
“Gissell was so nice and great with my dog Willow. Willow was super happy when I picked her up and I appreciate that Gissell sent me photos throughout the day. Gissell also took some time to meet me and Willow ahead of time to make sure everyone was comfortable which was super helpful. Definitely recommend Gissell and will be reaching out to her again!”
“Aleja did an amazing job with Dusse and would refer anyone to trust there pets with her. Her communication was strong and always had updates with pictures. There is no dought your pet is in great hands with her, she is very caring and has 2 other dogs who are very friendly for your pets to interact with, over all great experience with her 10/10 would recommend ✔️”
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.
“My husky rescue can be timid and scared in new setting. Nayla and her awesome dog made Freya feel comfortable, playing and hiking and building her confidence. Nayla was prompt, understanding, communicated well and shared lots of pics of their adventures. It was reassuring and awesome to see my dog having a great time. I highly recommend Nayla if you have an active dog and are looking for someone to give them the attention, exercise and love they need while in someone else’s care.”
“Kelly was a wonderful sitter for my pup, Wilson! She was so kind and easygoing and Wilson had so much fun going on a hike and playing with her new puppy all afternoon:) It was a huge weight off my shoulders to know that he was safe and getting some good exercise while I was away! I would highly recommend Kelly to anyone looking for a daytime dog sitter.”

“Adam is very reliable and communicative. He was very patient with my dog even when the dog was shy and unsure of him during my time away and ultimately made him feel comfortable and safe. Would work with him again!”
About: I have years of experience dog, cat, and house sitting, and especially love working with dogs. Have personal experience owning rescue pets and participated in dog behavior training. I work part time and have a very flexible schedule, so I am happy and willing to work with you and your pets’ specific needs and schedule! I provide outdoor walks, check ins, and caring for your pets in your home. I always ensure your pets’ safety by securing them before exiting the car for walks, making sure they are leashed, checking shade/temperature of the park or trail we may be using, and ensuring all unsafe foods/objects are out of the dog or cats reach when in the home. I also have a large vehicle with room for dogs and crates of all sizes.
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.
About: I grew up caring for household pets & greatly enjoyed it. I am a dedicated animal lover, with years of experience in dog walking, playing, and general loving care for friends and family’s pets. I feel strongly that animals need to get sufficient play time in order to feel properly nourished in their lives. I also have experience with senior dogs, dogs with muzzles & dogs with special needs. I have been house and pet sitting across the country on & off for the last 5 years. I am an entrepreneur & work from home. My schedule is flexible & I can almost always adapt to your scheduling needs. I am currently in between vehicles and relying primarily on public transportation & the local shuttle system at this time. Many of my repeat clients offer me a vehicle or bike to use during my time caring for their pets if it is necessary for the duties I’ll be performing. I have been on Trusted Housesitters for over 4 years with excellent reviews and experiences. I have also house and pet sit for many friends and family. Given my large resume of experience, I decided to start on Rover to get paid for the excellent care that I offer. While staying in your home, I will treat your home like my own. Keeping all spaces clean and tidy for you to come back to. If you have any boundaries in your home please let me know, so I can be sure to respect all house rules. I am comfortable sleeping with animals on the beds or off, depending, of course, on how large the bed is if it’s an overnight sit. I will enjoy exploring your area and take any pups who need exercise on some beautiful hikes and adventures!

About: Hi, I’m Annette! I’m a reliable, attentive dog sitter based in Incline Village with a flexible schedule and a calm, grounded approach to care. My goal is to ensure your dog feels safe, comfortable, and well-attended to, whether through neighborhood walks, quality time at home, or overnight companionship. I focus on providing a peaceful and structured environment for the pets in my care. Because of this, I am a great fit for dogs who enjoy a relaxed pace and steady routine, though I may not be the best match for those requiring highly intensive outdoor exercise or off-leash adventure outings. Being based in Incline Village with a flexible consulting schedule means I can get to most local neighborhoods quickly for drop-ins or walks This allows me to be highly responsive to your pet’s needs, whether that’s a last-minute drop-in or staying at your home to keep your pet company during the day. Since I set my own hours, your pet’s routine becomes my priority. I believe pets are family members who deserve the same respect and care as any other resident. In a client’s home, my priority is maintaining the 'status quo' to minimize stress. I start by learning your pet’s specific cues, favorite hiding spots, and unique quirks. Whether it’s following a precise feeding ritual or ensuring the exact level of evening companionship they are used to, I treat your home and your pet with the utmost integrity. I am naturally observant and communicative, so you’ll receive regular updates and photos that capture your pet’s true comfort level.
About: Dogs are part of the family! I’ve spent years caring for pups of all sizes, and I love walking, hiking, and exploring the beautiful trails of Incline Village with them.

About: I’ve been around dogs my entire life, from growing up with them to having two Labrador Retrievers of my own. I also spent college as the head caretaker for our bulldog mascot, which required professional training. These days, I work remotely, so I have a lot more flexibility than the typical 9-to-5 sitter. When I’m house sitting, your dog can have plenty of company throughout the day rather than being left alone for hours. I can work from your home, take breaks for walks, and adjust the routine around what your dog is used to. I live in the Tahoe area and spend a lot of my free time outside, so I’m especially happy to get out for walks, hikes, or just some time in the fresh air with an energetic dog. At the same time, I’m equally happy hanging out at home with a senior dog or a pup who would rather spend the afternoon on the couch. I’m comfortable with dogs of all sizes and have experience with senior dogs, daily exercise, and oral medications. My goal is to keep your dog comfortable and on their normal routine while you’re away, take good care of your home, and send enough photos and updates that you know they’re doing well. I’m happy to meet beforehand so we can make sure it’s a good fit and go over your dog’s routine, favorite spots, and anything else I should know. I work remotely and have flexibility on weekdays and weekends to stay at your home full-time or do frequent drop-ins, depending on the client’s preferences. I take the utmost care for a clients space when dog sitting, respecting all guidelines, over communicating as needed, and leaving the space as if I was never there each time.

About: What sets me apart from others is my compassion for all animals. I genuinely feel most loved and understood by animals. The physical act of love that is communicated between humans and dogs is something that I truly cherish and carry into every interaction I have with them. I am currently a grad student and am available to care for your pets anytime Wednesday-Sunday. Whether that looks like a weekday hiking adventure, a potty break, or caring for them while you are on vacation I will be there. I love taking dogs on hikes or to dog beach. I also just enjoy going on walks with dogs and letting them be in their natural element.

About: Hello! My name is Michele & I’m 30 and I recently moved to Zephyr Cove, NV from Colorado. I work from home, so I have ample time to spend with your pup, and have one dog of my own, who loves other dogs. I have many years of experience working with dogs, which includes: owning dogs, volunteering at Animal Shelters and working at Animal Hospitals. I have worked at three Animal Hospitals as a Technician, which has provided me with the necessary skills to understand dogs needs - especially when it comes to medical situations. Also, I am very caring, loving, responsible, dependable and trustworthy. Ultimately, the reason I have signed up to be a dog walker as well as a sitter, is simply because I love being around dogs. I will treat your dog as if they were my own and I will make sure your pup gets the upmost care! Thank you! Michele I have so much time to play with your pups and take them on long walks! I am extremely active so love being active with pups. I will give your dog so much love! I work from home, so I am always by my pups side. I will treat your dog like my own!
About: My name is Hannah Sweet and I love dogs :) I have an Australian Shepard who is turning 15 and loves to go on long walks and runs. I enjoy walking, running, talking and playing with dogs! I am quite active but have availability throughout the week and on some weekends. I have experience dog sitting and house sitting. I am a morning person so I can do early morning walks/runs whenever necessary. I work remotely most days of the week so I can work from anywhere. I do have a dog at home who is not friendly with other dogs. I would prefer to go to the dogs home or take them to the coffee house or gym with me to spend the day when necessary :) I often travel on the weekends and would be happy to take a pup with me as long as they are comfortable in the car or if I am not traveling I will be home and happy to care for your pup in their normal environment. I am gentle and allow pets to come to me and get comfortable before I approach them. I have a gated yard which pets can roam in as long as my dog is not home. Otherwise, I am very comfortable caring for pets in their own home and doing house sitting as well.
About: I have taken care of all types of pets since I was 10 years old, friends and family have relied on me to walk, feed and bath their pets. I have been pet sitting since I was 13 years old, worked in a vet office, and a pet store for a total of 4 years. I currently work from home and can work anywhere with wifi. I am able to work from your home with your pet and am flexible in the fact that I can come over and take care of your pets when you require it. I will give your pets all the attention and am very reliable. I love pet sitting/dog walking and offer the flexibility and experience I think is necessary to provide the best possible environments for your pets while you are away.

“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 !!!”
“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’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.
“This review is long overdue! Gina and Erik watched our two golden retrievers while in Tahoe for a family gathering in May 2023. They treated our dogs like their own and sent us lots of updates, photos and videos of our dogs during their stay. Our dogs looked SO HAPPY and clearly LOVED Gina and Erik. During a thunderstorm, one of our dogs was scared and Gina made a rub of essentials oils to help calm him, and Erik gave him hugs on the couch. They gave them such love, pets and hugs and we couldn't have asked for better dog sitters during our time in Tahoe. HIGHLY RECOMMEND! Thank you Gina and Erik!”
“Faith is an absolute gem of a dog sitter, and I genuinely can’t recommend her enough. I reached out last minute — the kind of request most sitters would turn down without a second thought — and she said yes without hesitation. What really stood out was how thoughtfully she handled Atlas’s anxiety. She didn’t treat it as an inconvenience; she approached it with patience and genuine care, and it made such a difference knowing my pup was in calm, understanding hands rather than just being “watched.” On top of that, she was incredibly flexible with pick-up and drop-off times, and even made a special exception for me when I needed a time outside her normal hours. She didn’t make me feel like a burden for asking — she just made it work. That kind of grace is rare. And the updates! She check-ins with photos and messages that were so reassuring. You could tell she wasn’t just going through the motions — she actually cared how he was doing. If you have a dog with any special needs or anxiety, Faith is your person. She went above and beyond in every way. Thank you Faith! 🐾”
“Megan took such great care of our two high maintenance doggies. Nina got all the cuddles and people time she wanted. Jack (our shy puppy) got comfortable with other dogs, playing with them and even sleeping side by side. It's great to get so many pics while we were away and to see them both so happy. Thanks so much Megan - truly appreciate the loving care you provide! Reid, Serita, Jack and Nina”
“This is the second time we booked with Susan. Susan and her family were perfect for my high-energy baby. They gave him more play time and attention that he probably gets at home! We highly recommend her!”
“We were so lucky to find Christina last minute. She was so wonderful with Luke and her kids also love to help out and watch the dogs! We had a delay in travel and Christina was super flexible and accommodating.”
“Winnie loves to stay with Aaron, Nicole and the kids. They take him out and take great care of him. We travel much more comfortably knowing Winnie is being loved and cared for by people who pay attention to detail and respect whatever rules we may have for Winnie. He comes back from being with them exhausted and happy and most importantly safe. We’ll continue to work with them as long as they’re providing the service! Thank you guys :)”
About: Dogs are part of the family! I’ve spent years caring for pups of all sizes, and I love walking, hiking, and exploring the beautiful trails of Incline Village with them. Whether it’s playtime, cuddles, or outdoor adventures, I make sure every dog gets plenty of attention, exercise, and love while you’re away. My goal is to keep your furry friend happy, safe, and feeling like part of the family every single day. Your dog’s favorite Tahoe vacation starts here! 🐾🏔️❤️ I’m home all day, so your pup gets plenty of walks, playtime, cuddles, companionship, and—when they’re up for it—Tahoe adventures! In our home, dogs are family. My own dog, Sailor, is part of everything we do, along with my kids, so I’m used to having happy, playful pups woven into our everyday life. Your dog won’t be tucked away waiting for someone to come home—they’ll be included in our day, showered with attention, and treated like one of our own. Morning walks, playful games, mountain exploring, cozy naps, and lots of family snuggles make for a pretty incredible Tahoe stay. My goal is for your pup to go home happy, relaxed, thoroughly loved, and wondering when they get to come back. 🐶❤️ I focus on in-home care, creating a safe, cozy, and loving environment where your pets feel secure, relaxed, happy, comfortable, and loved while you’re away.
“Jacob and his fiancée did such a wonderful job taking care of Teddy! He provided photos and updates often and I was confident he was being well taken care of. My puppy always looked so happy and like he was always having so much fun!”
“Kat and Corey were wonderful! They took excellent care of our special-needs bulldog and made us feel completely at ease while we were away. It was clear she was well cared for and loved. We would absolutely trust them with her again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for caring, dependable sitters!”
“We continue to use Susan every time we go out of town. We love knowing he is going to be taken care of, and that he gets to spend his days on long hikes playing with Susan and her dogs. Thank you Susan!”
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.
“Megan was very responsive and took good care of Willow. She kept us posted on Willow’s whereabouts and sent us pictures. It’s reassuring to know our baby is in good hands. I would highly recommend Megan to take care of your pets when you are away. Thanks Megan!!”
“Trusted them completely with my fur babies. They had some anxiety with being without the family but Shannon and David handled it beautifully and were so gracious. Would definitely use them again!”
“Gabriel was fantastic. This was my first time boarding my dog and first time leaving her since our other dog passed away. I was very nervous leaving her behind. Gabriel's house was perfect - big fenced back yard and cozy inside. She was allowed to sleep on the bed if she wanted. He was very calm and reassuring. He allowed us to do a short visit to his house before our bigger trip to get her used to being there. Will definitely be using him again!”
