Doggy Day Care in Ponderosa Palisades

If I were a dog I'd want to stay with Kathy ALL the time. This was a no guilt dog free day for me with photos and texts letting me know how things were going...about half way through the day it seemed maybe Gracie was having a better time than I was!! If you need to find a secure, loving happy place for your very best friend I'd suggest Kathy's place hands down. Thanks Ellie for suggesting Rover.com and Kathy. Kathy, we love you. Toni and Gracie

I would 100% book Malea again for dog daycare during future north Tahoe vacation trips when I am doing something in Tahoe that doesn’t allow dogs. Malea provides peace of mind that my dog is also having a safe and good time in Tahoe when I cannot be with her. I booked Malea for doggy daycare for my 1 yr old shepherd mix Laynie during a last minute ski trip to north Lake Tahoe during the MLK long weekend. I was looking for a dog sitter who could watch my energetic young dog during the day while I was at a nearby ski resort. I was surprised by how quickly Malea responded to my last minute inquiry (her speedy responses continued throughout the entire booking) and I was really impressed by her care and passion for dogs as well the frequent and detailed video and photo updates she shared throughout the day. She and her awesome dog, Ripp, were so friendly and welcoming to Laynie. My dog ended up playing really well with Ripp— there were so many doggy play bows and happy tongue out moments. Laynie and Ripp even ended up sneaking away to snuggle on the bed together at one point 🤣! My dog also got along with other dogs in her care and got to join Malea and doggy friends on a long and fulfilling multi-mile pack walk out in beautiful Tahoe nature. She was content tired from all her playing and outdoor adventures when we picked her up that evening. Thank you Malea and Ripp!

Fantastic! We were so nervous about leaving our skiddish 4-month-old puppy for the first time. Luke was very thoughtful with him and sent us lots of updates to show how he was adjusting. We will absolutely use Luke again when we're in town!!

They were awesome

Skyline was a fantastic Sitter and I look forward to booking her again. She got us out of a pickle after our other Dog Sitter had to cancel last minute and graciously accepted the same day booking. She took our dog on a really fun walk with her dog and respected her elderly dog needs. She sent us lots of photos of our dog having a good time and getting along with the other dogs. Her house is adorable as well. I’m very grateful she was able to help us out and I hope we have an opportunity to work with her again.

Meghan is the best! Great communication and easy to work with. Soka came home happy and tired today.

Alexandra was great with our puppy - she was very communicative & flexible, and he has a great time at her home!

Extremely great experience from beginning to end, send pictures thru the day to make us feel good and comfortable, will 💯 percent recommended her.

Katherine was amazing with our 1 year old golden retriever! Zephyr looked like he was having a great time, and he came back to us nice and tired. Katherine also took our dog's anctics in stride :) We'll definitely be booking with Katherine again!

Larissa is punctual, communicates well, and genuinely cares for our pet, Oreo. She updated us all the time how Oreo was doing during the day. He also seems happy after his dog day care. Will definitely come back for her! :)

Brad was great - took the time to introduce Fiona to his pack for the day and make sure we were comfortable before we left her. He communicated perfectly when we checked in, and overall just a wonderful experience and tired out our playful pup. Would love to use Brad again!

Would highly recommend Meghan to anyone who is looking for a sitter for their pup. She was wonderful with our sweet Portuguese water dog, who does have some separation anxiety. Meghan was very loving and gentle with her - took for her for a nice stroll, comforted and played with her when we were gone for the evening. Ziggy (Meghan’s dog) who lives in the house was very friendly and not overbearing with our pup so worked out great! Five paws! 🐾 thank you Meghan 💫🥰🐾

Ruthanne is amazing! Our 3 month old pup needed care while we skied and not only did Ruthanne care for her and play with her but she met us at the mountain to pick her up in the morning and drop her off in the afternoon. And bonus, our Maggie got to play with her adorable Aussie and was so worn out both days that she slept like an angel. Thank you!! A+++

Amazing experience with Katie! Very professional, experienced and caring. Lots of play time, Katie sent pics and vids and was super communicative. When we picked our pups up they were tired and happy!
