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.
“Absolutely could not have been any happier w/ the wonder interactions and treatment that my boy received while w/ this beautiful couple! Can not wait for more time spent together”

“I'm always nervous when someone new watches our little girl Riley, but Patty and Randy made us feel at ease as soon as we dropped Riley off. Love that its only small dogs as that is so hard to find (especially near South Lake Tahoe). Great communication and just lovely people all around - highly recommend!”

“Gina and Eric are so caring and thoughtful! They took wonderful care of my very small older Chihuahua when we left town on a trip. They sent pictures everyday and I could tell he was very happy during the stay. I will definitely call on them again next time we need a pet sitter!”

“This is the third time Trulie has cared for my little chihuahua, Pearl, and each experience has been fantastic. She is always communicative and great about sending photo updates! Her home seems to have a relaxed atmosphere and her own dogs are super sweet, too! 10/10”

“Megan is a great dog sitter. Our dog loves being there and is always excited to go. She is very caring and we have full confidence in her to handle our Weim. I recommend Megan to anyone needing a sitter”

“Our energetic Malamute had a wonderful stay at Melissa’s. Her large fenced yard was the prefect setting, and our pup became fast fiends with her Golden Obi. Melissa sent us helpful updates during the stay and overall communication & timing was excellent. We would wholeheartedly recommend Melissa for any pet owners visiting South Lake Tahoe that want their fur fam in good hands.”

“Melissa is the best. We are so grateful we found her to take our pup. Tootsie always comes home happy and well taken care of. Melissa makes it so easy to leave her knowing she is in great hands.”

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.

“Melissa took great care of our two active boxers for 10 days. She sent daily pictures showing that they were having a great time playing in her yard. Will definitely ask her to watch our puppies for future vacations!”

“Had Tim do a few drop in visits to care for our cat Stevie while we were away for a couple days (we’ve used him for boarding multiple times in the past). Tim is wonderful and exhibited the same love and care in our home that we’ve come to expect. Can’t recommend highly enough!”


“Brenna was amazing! We got great detailed updates and tons of photos. Our cat was very happy for all the attention and great care! Brenna will definitely be our first choice for when we go out of town”

“Alexis was excellent with our cats for the two weeks we were gone. She was so friendly to them and make sure they were well taken care of. She was very communicative and pleasure to work with. Will ask to use her in the future!! 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!”

“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.

“Mckenna took wonderful care of our girl, Zoe. She was thoughtful, reliable, and attentive to our needs. For example, she brought in our mail, placed packages inside, and vacuumed up cat litter without being asked. We’re grateful for the care she gave Zoe and our home while we were away, and would be glad to have her help again in the future.”


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.
“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.”


“Georgette's attention to detail was outstanding, the weather was a factor throughout her time taking care of our pets, but she made sure that if it was starting to rain, she came back to take our pup from the backyard and into the house. Her dedication and extra efforts were so very appreciated, will plan to use her services in the future for our next trip.”


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!

“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!”

“Laura and Christian did an incredible job taking care of Hanoi for the day. They both have a wonderful energy, same goes to their two beautiful dogs. They were sitting another pup at the same time, who matched perfectly Hanoi’s vibe. They took them to the beach, and made me feel jealous with all the vids and photos they sent of them having a blast. Thank you, will definitely repeat if I need daycare services again soon!”

“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”

“Picking Adam and Lauren was a great decision. They entertained my energetic dog while we were busy and i got pictures of the fun things she did. Getting in touch with Adam was super easy and they are super helpful. I will definitely want them when we come back to Tahoe.”

“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!”

“Kathy took excellent care of our husky mix, Coco while we went skiing for the day. It was clear from the way that her own dog was cared for and the way that Coco was immediately at ease in her home, that she was warm and caring. She was easy to communicate with and flexible when we changed the drop off time. She sent some photos during the day - we will definitely contact Kathy again next time we are up for a day at Sugar Bowl !”

“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 !”

“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.”

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
“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: Lifelong animal lover! Rescue cat mom to two lovely kitties(11 year old & 1 year old kitten). Long-time rover user excited to help take care of your loved ones🐾 Work from home in South Lake! I would love to take care of your fur babies with feedings, long walks, checkin visits, cat sitting, etc. :) I’ve been a long time rover user for my two cats and would love to pay it back and help take care of the local South Lake animals!

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: Hi! I’m Georgette — a lifelong animal lover and Tahoe resident since 2008 with over 6 years of regular pet-sitting experience. I’m calm, patient, and active, and I love spending time outside keeping pets happy, exercised, and engaged. I work well with high-energy breeds, large dogs, and multi-pet households. I care for dogs and cats of all ages, including puppies and seniors, and I’m comfortable giving both oral and injectable medications. I offer dog walking, drop-in visits, and overnight stays in your home (no boarding). Visits and walks are typically 30 minutes, and I am available throughout the South Lake Tahoe/Stateline area. As a self-employed web designer, I’m reliable, communicative, and flexible with scheduling. I know how important it is to trust someone with your pets and your home, and I take that responsibility seriously. You’ll always get updates and photos so you can feel confident your pets are in good hands. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I’m self-employed as a web designer, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to plan my work around pet visits, walks, and overnights. That means I can be consistent with timing, responsive to changes, and fully present when I’m caring for your pets — not rushing in between other commitments. I enjoy being outside and active, so walks and check-ins are something I genuinely look forward to each day. I provide care in my clients’ homes so pets can stay in their own familiar environment and routines. During visits and overnights, I focus on keeping things consistent with what your pets are used to — feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medications, and quiet time. I make sure dogs get proper exercise and attention, and cats get the calm, respectful care they prefer. I keep litter boxes, food areas, and living spaces tidy, and I always double-check doors, gates, and leashes for safety. I also send regular updates and photos so you can relax knowing your pets are comfortable and well cared for.

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.
About: I'm taking a hiatus from full time work so I have plenty of time to devote to your dog(s). I love long walks, hikes, and trail runs, so happy to accommodate different activity levels. I don't have any pets right now, so yours will get my full attention. My gal Eli crossed the rainbow bridge this past spring and I'm not ready for another yet, but I miss doggo time. Experienced with senior care, mobility challenged dogs, and administering medication. I currently work very part time (Friday and Saturday afternoons, occasional other days), so I have plenty of time to devote to your pet. I miss daily walks! I have a fenced in back yard. Both front and back entrances have 4-5 stairs to the door, can carry dogs up to 65 lbs or assist. There aren't any other pets in the house so yours will have it all as a staycation. Quiet neighborhood for walks, and close driving distance to trails for hikes if desired.

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.
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.
