“Tim was the perfect sitter for our anxious senior dog and cat. He sent frequent updates and pictures of his adventures with our babies! We were at ease knowing they were being well cared for. 10/10 would recommend!”

“Alena was so great with Luna! Luna is pretty shy but seemed to warm up to Alena pretty quickly! She also sent a lot of pics & updates throughout the stay! Would use Alena again!”

“Nicole and Alex were absolutely amazing! They stayed at our home for 3 nights and took such great care of our dog, Whiskey. They made sure he got plenty of playtime, took him on walks, and kept us updated with photos, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. We came home to a happy, well-cared-for pup and a clean house—which was such a bonus. They even went above and beyond and did laundry, which we truly appreciated! We would 100% trust Nicole and Alex again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for reliable, thoughtful, and caring sitters. Thank you guys!”

About: I provide a safe, reliable and enriching environment for pups of all ages! I raised my pup since 11 weeks and I follow the AbsoluteDogs training methodology which has shaped Nori to be the adventure dog of our dreams! ❤️ I work part-time remotely, so am available most of the day to care for dogs. And my pup is available at all times for playtime. I have a pen for separating my pup away from yours if necessary, and any client’s dog will be walked on leash unless specifically requested by the client. I only provide baths for short haired, smooth coated dogs, and I can also provide basic obedience training using positive reinforcement.

“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!”

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.

“Dyisha was an amazing pet sitter for our two dogs and our elderly cat. She stayed in our home and took perfect care of them and sent us updates every day. They really enjoyed the time she spent with them. She had to deal with a lot as my cat was very old and in the last stages of kidney disease. We really appreciated her taking care of all of the animals so that we could go on a family vacation for thanksgiving.”


About: Growing up , I always loved caring for friends/families pets. In 2017 , my life changed when I got my first dog of my own, Sky the mini Aussie. Sky inspired me to start my own business , Mindful Pets, that I successfully operated from 2019-2024. I offered a range of services, from private walks , pack adventures, and in home pet sitting. In the 5 years of running my own pet care business, I loved weaving in my mindfulness practices, and invested in continued pet care education ; certified professional pet sitter with PSI , Pack Leader Blueprint , and Pet CPR / First Aid certified. You can rely on consistency in the care that I provide your pets , always ensuring their safety , well being, and having fun exploring new hiking trails or snuggling on the couch. Book your visit with me and guarantee a peace of mind your pets will be cared for by a professional. My schedule is completely open for pet care, depending on your pets needs / schedule , will determine the level of care I offer. I love taking pups out for fun adventures or caring for your feline pets in the comfort of their home. To minimize your pets stress , you can expect me to stay in your home. This helps keep your pets on their normal routine and environment and ensure they're happy and comfortable while the family is away.
About: Hello! I'm Lauren and I absolutely LOVE getting to spend time with dogs and cats, as I miss having my own. I'm experienced with caring for dogs with separation anxiety, dogs and cats that need medication/special treatment, as well as cats and dogs with disabilities. I'm a patient caregiver and make sure every pet gets lots of love and play. Thanks so much for checking out my profile! I'm currently unemployed. Until then I have open availability! I can check on animals many times in the day, host pets at my house (preferred) and keep pets overnight. I live with my boyfriend, Chase who sometimes helps me with walks when I have multiple dogs. We have a small, short fenced yard for dogs to run around in. My home is dog and cat safe, where they will not be able to get into any plants, food, or objects that would be harmful. In the client's home, I follow normal protocol that owners use. I always pick up poop in the yard and if staying multiple nights at the owners home, I will take out trash, do my dishes, and clean as necessary (basically treat it like an Airbnb!)
About: I have animals my whole life . Taken care of dog and cats since I had my first cat when I was 6.

So when I’m home in South Lake Tahoe , I’m all Open every day when I’m home to take care of all The pets . Make sure the yard is secure out of any harm. Always keep my attention on them if outside . Always secure the house when I leave.
“Nicole is the best. She takes great care to make sure everyone is happy and safe. She genuinely loves animals and it’s obvious it’s her passion. I highly recommend her services.”

“John was able to hangout at our hotel with our 2 dogs allowing for us to get in a day of snowboarding. The boys had a great time and were well taken care of. John was very easy to communicate with and accommodating with a last minute change in plan.”

“Leo did a wonderful job with our two dogs! We had a very quick turn around trip and Leo was able to house sit with such short notice was great. Our dogs seemed very happy upon our arrival. Our home was left extremely clean and as we left it. We will definitely book Leo in the future. Thanks Leo!”


“Chelsea was great! She worked with us with picking up our pup and helping to make a smooth transition because we had to do a bit of travel for a conference. Our dog had so much fun and we are grateful we found Chelsea to watch her. Highly recommend Chelsea!!”

About: I have been a dog owner for more than 18 years and I've been around cats and dogs my whole life. My partner and I, along with our 4-year-old Pyrenees mix, provide a safe, loving space with tons of room to run, and heaps of belly rubs. I'm currently working part time as a property manager on a 50 acre estate. My partner works from home. So one or both of us is around. We both take our dog for a long hike/bike/one wheel ride every evening that we would love to take your buddy with us. If I have take your dog to work I have a Tacoma with a camper shell that I bring Stevie in. It's safe and lockable so you can be assured that your fur baby is safe. We live in a single family home with two floors outside the Meyers roundabout. We allow dogs on couches, beds and have indoor and outdoor dog beds. We are a block away from miles of trails down to the Truckee river. Also I love running my dog Stevie with my one wheel around paradise park. Which is around 4 miles round trip. So if your dog needs lots of running and is safe on or off leash Ive got the toy for them. When not walking or riding we have a large fenced backyard (especially for Tahoe). So they won't be couped up inside. Please let us know what your best friend needs and we'll do our best to accommodate.

Kelly has gone and beyond taking care of our 2 dogs. She provided many updates and photos while we were away. She is very patient with our puppy and we came back to well taken care dogs. We came back to a clean house while taking care of our puppy and went above and beyond to take our puppy to the vet when there was an emergency. We are so grateful for her services and will definitely use her services more. Best pet sitter on Rover!
Dyisha was incredible! I can't say enough great things about her. She stayed at our house with our puppies for a week and took excellent care of them as well as our house. I'm pretty sure it was cleaner when I came home than when I left. The dogs actually seemed sad today that she was gone. She walked them daily, and played with them a ton! Highly recommend her and will definitely use her again in the future!
