Pet Sitting Big Sur

“Sara did a great job for their first drop-in engagement with Leo and Phoebe. They followed directions well, including play time, administering medication, feeding, litter box hygiene and sending me updates. They were easy to communicate with and helped to transition Leo to new food and medication while I was out of town. I will be rebooking them. Thanks Sara!”

About: I have been working with dogs since I was 10 years old and started 4-H, I have shown dogs trained them and worked with animals my entire life. I worked for a breeder and helped care for a litter of 6 from birth to 8 weeks. Caring for animals is important to me and I want to create trusting relationships with my clients so they know their pet is in the best hands as I know I only wanted the same for my own pups. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide dependable care throughout the week. Because I create my own work hours, I’m able to plan my days around pet care and give pets the attention, exercise, and companionship they deserve. Whether it’s regular walks, check-ins, or overnight care, I enjoy building pet care into my routine and making sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owners are away. I care for pets in my client’s home by maintaining their normal routine as closely as possible so they feel comfortable, safe, and secure while their owners are away. I prioritize feeding schedules, walks, playtime, exercise, medication instructions, and plenty of attention and companionship. I also treat every home respectfully and provide regular updates so pet parents can feel confident knowing their pets are being cared for with patience, reliability, and genuine compassion.

“Nicole checked in on my three elderly dogs. She took great care of them while I was out and made sure Tally got her afternoon medication. During the visit she sent updates and photos, and asked clarifying questions since this was the first visit. Nicole also left the house in perfect condition and made sure the house was locked up when she left. I look forward to having her take care of my dogs again.”

“Oscar was amazing with our two cats. They are indoor and outdoor cats so they require a bit more care. He followed all our instructions. On top of that, he made last minute adjustments to our itinerary after I made scheduling issues. We will definitely be booking him again for all our future travels.”

About: Dog & cat mom, foster, rescue volunteer, and marine biologist working in animal rescue and rehabilitation—I’ve spent my life caring for animals and know how important it is to have someone you truly trust with your pets. I currently intern with the Monterey Bay Aquarium’s Sea Otter Rescue and Rehabilitation Team, so hands-on animal care is quite literally what I do every day! I grew up with both dogs and cats and have experience caring for animals of all ages, personalities, and needs—from kittens and puppies to seniors and hospice pets. I’m comfortable with medications, specialized care, enrichment, exercise, and pets who are shy, reactive, slow to warm up, or particular about their routines. I’m experienced in reading animal behavior, respecting boundaries, and adapting my care to each individual pet. Whether that means walks and adventures, enrichment and play, slow trust-building, or simply keeping them comfortable at home, my priority is making sure your pets feel safe, understood, and loved while you’re away. Pet care fits really naturally into my weekly routine. I have a flexible schedule, so I’m able to schedule pet visits around my shifts without any issue. I’m available in the mornings or early afternoons/evenings, and I can stay for several hours if your pet needs extra company, enrichment, or supervision. I’m also available on weekends and some holidays. I care for pets in their own home, where they feel safest and most comfortable. I don’t bring animals to my house, so all of my services are centered around keeping your pet’s routine consistent in their familiar environment. When I’m in your home, I will make sure to follow your instructions closely, whether that’s specific feeding schedules, preferred walking routes, medication routines, or favorite enrichment activities. I always make sure pets have fresh water, a clean space, plenty of attention, and whatever level of play, exercise, or quiet company they prefer. I’m very respectful of your home and treat it with the same care I give your pets. I tidy up after visits, keep things organized, and make sure everything is exactly how you left it. My goal is for your pet to feel safe, happy, and understood while you’re away, and for you to feel confident knowing they’re in good hands.

I’m available for walks, drop-ins, boarding, daycare, and house sitting, depending on scheduling availability, and I make communication a priority by providing regular updates and photos during each visit or stay.
