“Marcelo was very responsive via text and sent many updates. My pup had a great time with him! I would highly recommend Marcelo’s services”


“Gina was so great! She was super flexible and easy to communicate with. She’s also in a great location close to heavenly. My dog Penny had a blast with her, her kids and Lemon. I highly recommend her!”


“I cannot tell you how amazing patty was!!! She was extremely friendly and I felt 100% at ease when it came to dropping off my baby girl with her.”


“Steph was excellent with Milo, when we dropped him off on Sunday (2nd day) Milo couldn’t stop wagging his tail. She also has 2 dogs who gave Milo great company when she took him out on a hike. I would highly recommend Steph.”


“Andrea is super responsible and great with pets. She took excellent care of our dog and cats while we were away. She was very communicative and followed our instructions to a T. I would definitely book her again.”

“Melissa was very responsive with our short notice request for daycare. I felt at ease leaving our pup, Nala, with her as soon as I arrived and her kind and calm demeanor immediately made Nala feel right at home. Nala was happy and calm when we picked her up later that day. We’ll definitely be reaching back out in the future! Thanks Melissa!”


“Super responsive and awesome people. They are a great dog friendly place for leaving my well behaved but fomo dogs for a few hours while I hit the slopes”


About: Well, just like cats, I've always had dogs since I was very young and I've had very large dogs like Rottweiler, Doberman, even small puppies I'm currently working part-time some days in the mornings others in the afternoons so I have time to walk the pets but if it's about staying with them I have no problem going to be with them I am currently offering a walker service and to be able to take care of him at home. In my house I have two dogs and a cat they all get along, I have their separate rooms their large beds because my dogs are big and my cat is always with me so sometimes she sleeps with me or in her bed I give them homemade food like barf with some cookies

“Tim was amazing! I could tell my big boy was happy and confident around him! Tim took him on a hike and kept him busy and send me a lot of beautiful pictures! I loved his service! Thank you Tim!”


“Thank you for taking such good care of bobos and making sure he was happy and feeling well. We appreciate it . Booking your service was last minute and you accommodated our needs.”


“Moose had such a great time with Raluca! She was able to accommodate us such last minute and was very flexible with time. She also understood that Moose can’t be alone due to separation anxiety and loves to be around people. She is so kind and he loved going on adventures and errands with her! Will definitely ask her to watch him again :)”


“I'm so very thankful for Vivian for looking after my dog. Scully loved her since the very first moment and seems like they had great time together. I wholeheartedly recommend Vivian (and her dogs) to everyone!”


“Anette was the best with Biscuit! We were worried about Biscuit being too energetic but Anette just knew how to handle him. Biscuit came back to us super happy. Definitely will leave Biscuit with Anette again, if she’ll have us, on our trips to Tahoe!”


“Omar was great! Thank you for making Abella feel so loved and safe, I appreciate the communication and making my day easier. I highly recommend Omar for the services. Thank you Omar! 😁”


“Cooper had a great day with Diane! He was well cared for, took a nice walk, and received plenty of affection. He was calm and happy when we picked him up.”


“Kerri and her son, Reese, were so nice and accommodating. Leo felt right at home with them and I was happy to know I was in safe hands. Thank you!”


“Andrea is one of the best dog sitters I've had yet. An added bonus is her dog Sophie, who has such a calm and loving demeanor that she will likely get along with any type of dog. My pup is only 11 weeks old and not only did Andrea and Sophie take great care of her, but she came back better trained than when I initially dropped her off. Andrea made sure to take Matti out for scheduled walks with Sophie, followed by naptime in the crate (my request since she is a puppy still in training), lots of indoor and outdoor playtime. Andrea is very professional in her reponses, scheduling and overall care. I was worried that my dog might be a bit of a handful for even the most professional, as she is still being potty trained, teething, learning her bark, etc. However, Andrea returned her both times smiling and singing praise for my puppy, as if she were a perfect angel. I highly recommend Andrea for your pet's care!”


“Alyssa is a very responsible dog mom! She has had her dog Sandy for about 6 years now. Sandy is one of the most important things in Alyssa’s life. Alyssa would be a great candidate for Rover since she loves dogs like no other. A great perk is that Alyssa works from home so she will be with the dogs at all times.”

“Brooke and Colin were awesome with our 2 dogs. They were well care for, well exercises and attended to. I will definitely use them again and would recommend others to reach out to them as well.”


About: I will always treat your pet as one of my own. With 20 years of dog caring experience, I am able to provide safe and comfortable environment for your pup while you’re away. I have personally been a dog owner from puppy to senior stages these last 20 years, including my adopted adult furbaby who I was told was on the streets for 3 months before his arrival to the animal shelter. My current pup is a 2 year old Maltipoo I have had since he was 10 weeks old. He’s been through obedience and agility courses and is currently being trained to be a service animal as his long term goal. Happy to provide fun casual training sessions for your pup with owner approved treats if that’s something you’d like for your pup under my care. I have dog sat a variety of breeds throughout the years. However, my main services this time around are for small to medium sized doodles who’ll need a caretaker that understands their temperament and playful energy amidst all the larger outdoor pups in the Tahoe region. I make sure to obtain all relevant information I need to know about your pup before we part ways. I also love sending updates throughout the day because I know I would want to know what my own pup is doing without me. Feel free to ask me any questions! Your pup will be able to hang out with me all day long! And have a playmate, my 2 year old furbaby Bentley, to enjoy their stay with! We may even go on some on leash adventures around the Tahoe Basin if that’s something your pup will enjoy doing. First and foremost, I would love to first meet your pup on neutral grounds (if I were to dog sit at your residence) in case there will be territorial issues by having a stranger (me!) entering their private space. This can be just outside your home on the side walk. If it’s to drop off at my place, I would like for us to have a consultation meeting to have your pup get acclimated in a new environment (my home) first before we have them return for a longer period of time for their stay. My 2 year old 13lb maltipoo is highly socialized and is a playful companion for those who also need a playmate throughout the day to exert their energy out. I have a fenced and shaded large deck where the pups can comfortable play and relax in throughout the day. Fresh water is always provided and depending on their diet, treats are also available. You are also welcome to provide their preferred treats and food items upon their drop off. Walks typically occur late morning and late afternoon — also dependent on weather. Of course if there is a particular schedule specifically for your pup, I will accommodate as much as possible for their comfort. I aim to provide the same amount of love and care for them as they would get from you!
