“Olivia was a conscientious and thoughtful sitter for our kitty and scared little blind dog! She was super patient. Olivia left our house clean and tidy. Not only that she’s a smart and really interesting person! She has horse experience as well and will book her when I need an equine sitter. 15/10 would book again!”
“Lisa was amazing with our dog Lucy! We needed a last minute sitter while on vacation and she came through and our dog had a wonderful time. Highly recommend Lisa!”
About: What sets me apart is the genuine love and one on one attention I give every pet. I treat your dog or cat like family, not just a job. I also send daily updates with photos so you always feel connected and reassured. Your pet’s comfort, safety, and happiness are my top priorities. Pet care is a big part of my daily routine because I’m home full-time. This allows me to give pets my full attention whether it’s regular walks, playtime, feedings, or just keeping them company. I create a calm, loving environment where they feel safe and cared for, just like they would at home. At my home, pets get plenty of love, playtime, and a calm space to relax. I make sure they feel at home with cozy spots to rest and a safe environment to explore. When I care for pets in a client’s home, I stick closely to their usual routine so they feel secure and stress free. I treat every pet like my own, whether I’m in their space or they’re in mine.
“Julia was so helpful during Christmas when we couldn’t find anyone else to pet sit! She sent lots of photos and videos which I really appreciated and she was always quick to respond via text!”
About: I’ve grown up with dogs all my life and genuinely love caring for all animals. Most importantly, I will ensure your pet is well cared for. I am available on weekdays for dog walking from 11am-3pm, except for Tuesdays which I dedicate to volunteering at my local shelter. I am also available for pet sitting, both cats & dogs. I am capable of feedings, bathing and many other responsibilities for both dogs and cats. Very experienced with providing medication for animals with medical needs.
About: I have a good deal of experience working with dogs that need a more gentle touch. Not all dogs enjoy lots of fuss and activity for many reasons. It’s quite a special thing to earn the trust of timid dogs for whom the world can be a scary place. My empathic nature and experience in energy work help me appreciate the unique needs of each dog I work with. I’m happy to walk, play, cuddle, or just “be” as appropriate for the dog's comfort. At home I have handicapped pets of my own, including a paralyzed terrier mix (RIP Rogue) and a tri-pawed chihuahua. My experience with differently abled dogs has taught me that with a bit of adaptation, there is no reason why they can’t lead healthy, happy lives just like any other dog.
“David took great care of my lil doggo and did everything he could to make her comfortable. I really appreciated him meeting with her twice before the actual sitting date to make sure she was familiar with him. He provided lots of updates which eased my worries while I was gone.”
About: I have a few years experience with dog and cat care. I used to have a boxer mix named Buddy who passed from old age. When I was fresh out of high school my parents went on vacation, I stayed at their house and cared for their pregnant cat. At some point in the early morning the cat began giving birth on the couch. I brought clean towels to put the kittens after she cleaned them and I helped the mamma kitty birth the last kitten who was breached! I feel prepared for most pet caring experiences after that one! My mom has also had many dogs ranging from Chow mixes to Chihuahuas who I cared for while she was away. I have cared for friends and families (as well as friends of my friends and families) but am hoping to extend my time to newcomers! I am respectful of new animals that I meet and allow them to show me their comfort level. I have school aged kids so im ready for all the shenanigans from the fur babies! While i do like to give a dog exercise, I also allow them to make stops cause every creature should be able to smell the flowers sometimes. I can run short distances if your buddy happens to prefer quicker paces! I have available spots for walks on the following days (kept updated and current) Tuesday 9AM-1PM Wednesday 9AM-10am Thursday 10:30AM-12:30PM Friday 10:00-11AM Thank you for considering me to walk your pets I am available to care for pets in your home. I will follow any house rules, as well as care for your pet as my own.
“Jawharrah did another amazing job caring for our dog and koi pond. She is very detailed with her care and goes over and above what was needed. We highly recommend using her.”
About: I have two huskies that I personally trained. I have taken care of a 15 yr old dog and got amazing feedback and other dogs as well of all breeds. I treat all dogs as my own truly as my kids. I am flexible. I can do anything from Monday through Sunday morning, midday, and afternoon and night time I cater to you, whatever works best. I follow whatever the client wants and I always strive to go the extra mile with pet care because that’s what I would want in return my pets are everything to me so I treat them just as I would treat my own.
“Anissa was wonderful and super responsive whenever I messaged her. Asks plenty of questions to make sure she’s handling our dog with the outmost care and we truly appreciate that. Thank you very much🙏🏼”
About: I love dogs and have taken care of many different breeds for many years. When I'm dog-sitting, I treat them as if they were my own pets. When their "parents" are gone, it's important to make them feel secure. That's why I prefer to dog-sit in the pet's home. Also, I work in the medical field and know when a dog needs to see the vet. I am a semi-retired medical writer/editor and I work from home exclusively. This means that when I'm caring for your pet, I'm home with them every day all day. All I need to do my work is access to wi-fi. Also, I've had birds for more than 40 years, so if you have a bird in addition to your dog, you can trust me with its care. I mentioned earlier that I prefer to care for pets in their own home. It's less disruptive and helps them to feel secure. That's important to me.
About: I’ve been pet sitting “officially” from 16, but I grew up around pets and took care of friends and family’s animals from a young age. My regular clients include dogs, cats, fish, a leopard gecko (she eats worms, crickets and roaches- so you know I’m not squeamish!) and even a Scarlet Macaw named Mitchell. I've cared for animals of all ages -from 8 weeks to senior pets older than I am! As a student away from home, I miss my animals and would love to get my fix watching and caring for your pets. I am the one you want for any pet care needs! I am a full-time college student and have classes every day, however, I only have class about 1-3 hours a day so I am very flexible with scheduling! For my own pets, I’ve raised several kittens and have also been a foster for one dog, one puppy and two kittens. Younger animals, and fosters especially, need a lot of patient socializing and the only way to do that is with lots of attention and praise. I use gentle correction for kittens and kind but firm commands for dogs-and consistency is KEY. I am happy to implement the commands you use in your household. At home, I walk my own dog three times a day (morning, noon, and night) and hike whenever we can. Depending on your dog’s energy level, I am happy to do the same for yours! For kitty-clients, I clean litter boxes and replace water on each visit.
About: I am very experienced in handling dogs of all sizes and ages. I have had both big and small dogs all my life, raised puppies, and taken care of my elderly dogs. I am well educated on dog behaviors and body language. I've trained all of my own pets very well. In my free time, I also have a lot of experience with both high and low-energy dogs, and I've enjoyed every dog I've encountered. I would love to believe they feel the same about me. I am extremely enthusiastic about my love for not only dogs but all animals, and I hope you'll give me a chance to make your life easier and your pet's life happier! My name is Amariah. I’m 19 and looking to help out with your pet care needs. I’m currently focused on school, as I am still young. I spend my free time going to the gym, the beach, and hiking in nature. A big portion of my days is free since I’m only going to school, and I would like to fill the gap with something fun, productive, and helpful. I’ve grown up my whole life loving and caring for animals of all kinds, and I would love to do something I enjoy in my free time. I’m hoping that now that summer is around the corner, I can bring some friendly pets along for my adventures. If you are looking for someone passionate about the care and well-being of your pet, I hope you decide to consider booking with me! My priority is your pet's happiness and any of my services can be adjusted to your liking. I would love to take your pet for walks, have playtime, and take your pet on fun, enriching adventures. I have three dogs of my own: a male French bulldog named Pablito, a female Staffordshire Bull Terrier named Cookie, and a male American Bully named Maximus Bobaximus. All of them are dog friendly and very well trained. If you are concerned that your dog may not be dogfriendly, I can also separate my pets from yours, as I have many different spaces to which my pets can be relocated. I do not live with any children, but occasionally, there are two children over the age of five who may be present; however, they will not interact with your pet if you prefer. I am very flexible in my space and can alter things as you wish.
About: I have been around animals & taking care of pets my entire life:) (Dogs,cats,horses,rabbits,fish,mice,rats, birds,chickens & farm animals....) I was a petsitter for neighbors & friends at a young age & have an affinity for animals. I volunteered at the Monterey SPCA in Jr High & Highschool to walk & play with the dogs & cats.

7. Mia Jazmin W.
“Hi my name is Kendra Brady and I am the Education and Volunteer Coordinator at Hitchcock Road Animal Services. Mia has been a volunteer for a little over a year which required her to complete an orientation, live scan at the Sheriff's Dept., onboarding at the Health Dept.,TB testing at Natividad Medical Center and finally training at the shelter. She had been dedicated, responsible and reliable, especially since she is working around her college schedule to volunteer. She is extremely smart, able to follow directions, communicate clearly with me (if she needs to cancel a shift) and works well with other volunteers, not to mention the animals. She initially volunteered with cats but recently asked to become a dog companion, which required more training. Mia will only add to the value of your service that you provide. She is a superstar! Please call me at 831-455-5765 if you have other questions.”
8. Debbie R.
“Debbie is caring, knowledgeable, and patient. Of course, she cares about the animals, but she also cares about the owners. She demonstrates this in the time given, active listening, and concise explanations. She really knows her stuff! She truly appreciates Western and Eastern medicine, and she totally understands medical and homeopathic terms and procedures. If she doesn't know an answer, she'll research it for you because she's genuinely curious as well. She is a consummate professional, respectful, funny, and a pleasure to work with. I highly recommend her!”

15. Jessica P.
“Jessica has become our go-to pet sitter. We have two dogs and they both adore her. We had her stay overnight at our home while we were away for a week. She fed them, walked them and cuddled them every night. We have a ring on our front door so consequential we also could tell that she was home with them at a reasonable hour each evening. It made our time away stress free. The house was tidy and dogs upon our return. We highly recommend Jessica and will gladly use her services again.”
