Pet Sitting in Big Sur

About: I have loved and taken care of animals my entire life - I believe animals are precious members of our families! They trust and love us unconditionally and it is our responsibility to ensure they are cared for as we would any other family member! My adult daughter and son-in-law are animal lovers through and through and are also on hand between school and work to shower your pups with love and playtime! I work from home so am available all-day during the week for your pups with time inside and walks outside in the neighborhood and on the weekends if your pup likes we will head to the beach or longer trail walks as well. I look forward to meeting and playing with your fur baby soon! My home is available for your fur baby to come and play/rest/enjoy providing your fur baby with some company and fun and set them at ease while you are away! My adult daughter and son-in-law also live with me and are deeply involved in the care of all of our pup visitors so rest assured your pup will have lots of love and exercise (if they want 😉)!

“Audra is kind and communicative. I trusted her with my 89 and 65 pound fur babies! They were walked and cuddled. Thank you, Audra!”

“Becky has been great! I’m glad I found someone that my pup is comfortable staying the weekends with.”

“Valery is a very sweet person. I have two pit bulls that she babysits for me from time to time. She honestly takes care of them so great and makes sure they’re very well take care of at my home. My pitbull Mia requires ear medicine and well she gets nervous seeing the ear drops valery comforts her and is able to put them on!”

About: I’ve owned seniors dogs, puppies and everything in between. Jack Russell Terrier to English Mastiff. I’ve also owned cats with diabetes that required insulin daily, neurotic quirky animals we’ve had to adapt to, chickens, goats, sheep, bearded dragons and other reptiles. We are an active family and Hilo goes most places with us. However, there are times he must stay home in his covered kennel or inside depending on weather. We enjoy the rhythm of our daily routines just as much as all of our animals. To keep it humming everyone works in concert sharing the load of responsibilities.

“Wendy has been absolutely amazing with my puppy. She treats Abbey like her own! I feel so much better having her look after my pup when I'm at work!”

“Amanda is a God send. Our dog Felipe, a chihuahua, who is not easy, loves her. She is steady, calm, loving, and diligent. She takes him to the beach and meditates with him - things he loves, manages his medications etc When she cares for him, we return to a happy and somehow more integrated dog.”

“Yasmine has a love for animals and especially dogs. She is extremely compassionate and knowledgeable about temperament, grooming and socialization. When she has cared for my dogs I never have to worry and know that they are in the best care possible.”

“Jess is our family pets loving patience care giver. They just love they way he speaks to them with a genuine care for their comfort, while we away from them. His nature walks with our pets are calming while meeting their activity needs. I never worry about my pets when in Jess’s care. Our family members often mention that caring for animals is Jess’s true joy in life.”

“Lauren is absolutely amazing! She took great care of our dog and was good at communicating! I will definitely be using her again”

About: I’ve been with dogs my whole life.I give them massages as well as take them to the park,walks and rivers to swim. At the park we can play with your dogs toys as well as go exploring and relax. I’m currently working part time so majority of the time I have off. It’s more like a side job that I can have fun in and also be responsible for. I have a spacious fenced yard and plenty of shade for your friend. We have a deck as well. Their is a park and river near by so we can go on walks and play. I have a blanket as well for your friend.

“Absolutely perfect! She is the best! Outpouring love, compassion, and the most caring! Nermin Tugce is so easy to communicate with, sends updates and makes a pups mom feel relaxed and able to truly enjoy our travels. She is so fast to respond to a nervous dog moms questions, really good at taking pictures and she sends pictures and videos every day so you can see with your own eyes that you pup is having the best time. She truly spoils “her dogs” with love and attention, and is really good at catering to your pups specific quirks. She makes you feel like your pup is the best and sweetest in the world (which of course he is :) ) I can now plan the longest trips without a worry for Buddy, because I know he will also be on vacation and have the best time! She is such a thoughtful and conscientious person, and we feel lucky that we can leave Buddy with her! Overall 5 stars and I highly recommend Tugce! She will definitely be my go-to person for house sitting!”

About: My journey in taking care of dogs started in 2013, and I have gained thorough experience from then on. I have cared for dogs of all ages, and made my schedule fit for them. I am self disciplined with their routines, consistent, dependable, and reliable. I am greatly passionate for giving all dogs the best quality in all things for them to thrive. I have also gained skills in basic command training. My specialty would have to be solidifying bonds with my dogs, and protecting them at all costs. I currently have open availability all days in the week. My days start at 11am between 12pm. I start community college in Spring of 2024. I am available and able to care for pets in their homes, where they can be most comfortable and cared for. I have experience with overnight stays. Safety is key for me and my pet clients, furthermore, any specific details I must know for their care is vital. I also prefer written instructions in specific terms as well.

“Very communicative and have great patience. We are very thankful for Michael’s time, he even let us last minute book for another hr of time within the same day! We were even more grateful for the pics he sent of our baby boy on their walk! Highly would suggest to a friend!”

I currently have a full time job so I’m mostly available on the weekends but I can do evenings during the week as well! My schedule can vary so let’s talk about it!

About: Ever since I was little, I have always loved taking care of animals. I can't remember a single day of my life with no animals in my house. As I grew up, I've had over 6 dogs, in which were all rescues. All including bulldogs, Australian Shepards, and an Australian cattle dog. Thats not counting the ones I have spotted on the side of the road and have taking under my wing for a night or two. I've taken care of dogs as young as 6 months old to as old as they can get. I also have had cats my entire life. I grew up taking care and nursing kittens back to health as well as assisted with queening (cat giving birth). I've also dealt with and am dealing with the rowdy, awkward, chaotic stage of the teenage 8-month-old cats. Definitely feel like banging my head on the wall a few times with those guys. I have experience house sitting with multiple animals in the same residence. Some including two cats and two dogs to my most recent one with two cats and a 16-year-old lab. Not only have I taken care of cats and dogs, but I also have taken care of horses, guinea pigs, and fish. I am currently working part-time (weekends) and go to community college online, so I have plenty of time to take your furry friends for a stroll. I love going on walks around the neighborhood. I also love hiking so if you want, they can always tag along. I even have a cat backpacks and harnesses too! I have a fenced in yard and have two friend furry pups to keep your animal's company. Both are dog friendly and cat friendly as they both grew up with seeing many different faces. If needed I can also crate your animal as well. In my house dogs are allowed onto the beds and couch's but if that's a problem please let me know beforehand. If in your house there is any rule regarding certain places they can and can't go, please do inform me.I also will only take care of one client at a time so they have my full attention.

About: I’ve owned dogs throughout most stages of my life and over several decades, mostly labradors and cocker spaniels. Recently my neighbor had 13 puppies over two litters and I was able to help raise them. At times, I was watching six puppies have free reign in a play area without fences … chaotic but fun! I am currently available at all times and happy to help. I do not currently own a pet so I am able to give my full attention to your dog. I would follow your household rules, of course. Generally I would make sure the dog has access to food and water and any available training treats. The time would be used for play and cuddling.
