LISA
PURCHARD, Owner and CPO ("Chief Pet Officer")
Lisa brings 20 years of
experience to Truckee Tails, having worked with animals in various capacities
as a pet sitter, dog walker, shelter socializer, foster parent, veterinary assistant and SPCA humane education
and pet-assisted therapy volunteer.
She has also worked extensively with police, Animal Control departments
and City Attorneys in various municipal ordinance education and
enforcement projects including the prosecution of animal cruelty cases in
West Los Angeles. Lisa has a law degree
but decided that she'd rather work with animals than practice law so in
December 1999 she founded Truckee Tails Pet Sitting. Despite tremendous growth, Truckee Tails has remained a family
business with Lisa owning & operating all aspects of the firm. The business currently serves over 200 local and
regional clients throughout Truckee and the Bay Area.
