Top rated Zephyr Cove house sitters

“Mindy is amazing! We’ve been using Rover for a while and this was the first time we didn’t feel anxious about leaving our pets with a sitter. All of our pets are seniors and two of them need medication twice a day. Mindy followed our instructions to a T, including measuring our diabetic cat’s blood sugar and giving him his insulin shot. She is by far the best sitter we’ve had and I’m very happy we found her. 10/10.”


“Denise is amazing!! We've had a hard time finding someone to give our Bernese Mountain Dog the time, care, and attention he needs but Denise has been fantastic with him! She is able to stay at our house full time, which helps with his separation anxiety, and handles his walks with ease. On top of that, she gives him all the love and cuddles he wants. I highly recommend Denise!”


“Tim IS the best dog sitter a dog parent could ever ask for. My dog has the best time with him!! They went for tons of walks, he took them to play with other dogs, and to the dog beach so my pups had a blast!! He was also communicating with me throughout the whole day. Seriously, he is the best, your doggie would love him!!”


“I wholeheartedly recommend Leonardo for pet and house sitting especially because my dogs can be quite challenging to care for. They have their own unique personalities and require a lot of attention, exercise and patience. Leonardo not only understands their needs but also connects with them in a way that makes them feel comfortable and safe. I’ve seen him manage them with ease. Knowing that my dogs are in such capable and caring hands allows me to relax and enjoy my time away!”

“Amy is awesome with dogs and always gives them the individualized attention they crave and deserve. Good at communicating her availability and able to help out on demand. My dog, Winny, loves her and is always excited when she takes her for a walk or gets to hang out with her for a weekend while I am away.”

“My Shadow girl absolutely loves Marcelo. She barely wants to come home when I pick her up. You can tell he absolutely adores animals and highly recommend him as a sitter. Your pets are in great, loving hands. He is very responsive and great to work with.”


“Lisa was awesome! We booked her on relatively short notice and she was able to watch our dog and cat. Both animals loved her and she was very communicative while we were gone. Thanks again Lisa!”


“Anni is passionate about dogs and genuinely cares for them. I love knowing that when my Winston is with her, he is in such good hands. She’s reliable, communicative, and always goes the extra mile to make sure he’s happy and safe. If you are looking for a dog walker or dog sitter who is kind, trustworthy, and dedicated, I highly recommend Anni.”

“Laura is the best and my two dogs love her!! She is so great with them, taking them on adventure walks, wiping them down after going out in the rain, and loves on them like they are her own. She is also very easy to communicate with and responsible. 11/10 would recommend Laura!”

“Had a family emergency pop up and Skylar was able to help last minute. During a stressful time, Skylar quickly scheduled a meet and greet and was ready to help the next day. Lucy and Skylar got along great! Thanks again for being so accommodating.”


“Dismas watched our Vaderdog at our place. He took him out for two walks and took great care of him. He even sent us a picture of our boy. When we got home Vader was calm and seemed to have really enjoyed his company. We really appreciated him and would absolutely recommend his services.”


“Choi was phenomenal!! Very professional, on time and stayed in contact with us throughout our evening. We would not have been able to enjoy ourselves if we didn’t know our fur babies were in good hands. Highly recommend Choi!”



“Brenna was amazing with River! She checked in on River multiple times a day and gave her all the exercise and cuddles she needed. I would highly recommend her and I will definitely be using her again in the future!”

“I couldn’t recommend Andrew enough. He always keeps me up to date on how my dogs are doing, takes wonderful care of my dogs and is great to work with. 10/10 would recommend.”


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

“Shelby is amazing and took such great care of Ruskin. She had constant communication and great pics while I was away missing him. Thank you!!”


About: Growing up with animals gave me a special appreciation and gratitude for all fur babies. I’ve cared for many animals throughout my life. I even lived on an animal sanctuary for a year and half tending to farm animals and I was just in Thailand a year ago volunteering with rescued elephants, cats and dogs. Where I live currently we have a few other happy dog friendly pups, all the more to guarantee your pup will be worn out ◡̈ I also have house sat from NYC, SLC, Sun Valley, ATL, LA, and Malibu. I’ve had several years as a house manager so no task is too big or small. I currently work remote full time and in my last year of my masters program. Fur baby breaks are perfect for my wide open schedule. I’m available and happily willing to take care of your fur babies within the comforts of their own home. Whether it’s just needing a few pets, feedings, plays, cuddles, beach visits or hikes I’m your guy.

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!

About: I bond quickly with animals and I make sure to properly introduce myself so they don’t feel intimidated in their own home. To them I want to be a friend rather than someone who is just there I am off on Sundays and Mondays and work the usual 8-4 hours the rest of the days. I live across from a park where walking/playing with your dogs is fun and easy I live across from a park where walking and playing with your pets is fun and easy, if they love to swim I’m a 10 minute walk from the lake

About: I grew up with two very sweet but aggressive Rottweilers since I was a little girl. We had many litters of the cutest puppies and since that time I just fell in love with all dogs. I have my own Sitzu named Redford. He is 4 years old or 35 in dog years and we go on many adventures. He is such a big part of my family and full of unconditional love. I am a kind, gentle and caring owner who will treat your pets like they are my own. Whether your pet loves the outdoors, going on hikes, visiting the dog park or just laying around in the house I will do my best to provide quality care and attention to your furry friend.
