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.
