Cat Sitting in Carmel-by-the-Sea

“Andrea is amazing! She came twice a day to care for our cat and did such a wonderful job. Her updates were very detailed and fun with photos and we felt very safe and secure and completely trusted her with Hazel and our home. Andrea is super responsive and whenever we go out of town again we will hire her for sure. Highly recommend!”

“Megan was great! First time Rover user - she explained how it worked, was very considerate, shared daily updates and took super sweet photos of our cat each day. Will book her again in the future - thank you!”

About: Animals have always been my happy place. From as far back as I can remember, I’ve had the privilege of caring for both cats and dogs, developing a deep bond and understanding of their unique personalities. Having spent years with furry friends, I've learned that every pet has its own quirks and needs, but all of them share one thing in common: a desire for love, attention, and connection. What sets me apart as a pet sitter is my genuine passion and hands-on experience. I'm not just someone who watches pets — I actively engage with them, whether it’s a playful game of fetch, a peaceful cuddle session, or a long walk to explore the world around us. I believe in creating an environment where pets feel safe, loved, and entertained. I’ve never met an animal that didn’t enjoy quality time with their human, and I take pride in giving them the attention they deserve. Whether it’s providing mental stimulation with toys, helping pets burn off energy with exercise, or simply offering companionship, my goal is always to ensure the well-being and happiness of each pet in my care. Their needs come first, and I make sure to listen to both the animals and their owners to create a routine that works for everyone. I’m more than just a pet sitter — I’m a true pet lover. With years of experience and an intuitive understanding of animal behavior, you can trust me to provide your pet with the best care possible. After all, every pet deserves to feel like they’re part of the family. Currently, my daily schedule revolves around taking care of my mom and my own animals, so having a flexible job is crucial. Luckily, pet sitting is the perfect fit for this chapter in my life, allowing me to combine my love for animals with my responsibilities at home I live in a peaceful, pet-friendly community, where I have access to quiet walks and a safe outdoor space. Whether it’s a leisurely stroll around the neighborhood or a quick potty break, I ensure your pet gets the fresh air and exercise they need at their own pace. Inside the house, I’ve designed the space to be a cozy retreat for pets. I have a large, comfortable dog carrier for pets who need a quiet space to rest, as well as plenty of soft bedding and safe spots for them to relax and feel secure. I believe in building trust with each animal, which is why I ensure they have access to everything they might need, at any time — from fresh water in every room of my home to ample opportunities for play and attention.

“Thank you for watching Wally!”

“Ashley took such good care of our old dog, giving him lots of cuddles and outside time. Her check-ins were thorough and she sent great pictures of him on his adventures with her. We highly recommend Ashley and will absolutely use her services again!!”

About: I would love an opportunity to provide care for your pet. I have over 10 years of experience caring for pets, training, etc. so I am more than qualified to take care of your pet! I am planning on providing pet care as my job, so I am pretty available…I am interested in daily walks as well as overnight care.. I provide loving and nurturing care in the comfort of the pets home. I was a nanny so I am always mindful of keeping the home safe and tidy!

“Natalie was great, she came over prior to us leaving to meet our cats and get to know their routine. She kept in contact throughout our trip and sent pictures. Would definitely recommend her!”

About: My family loves all animals. I’ve taken care of poodles since I was young. My current family has included Rhodesian Ridgebacks for last 20 years. I work from home and we have a sunny fenced in backyard to lounge in. I’m currently working from home and am available all day. My dog loves to chill in the bed in my office while I work and snuggle in the blankets. I have a fenced in yard with dog doors. Next to fire trails and close to the beach. Our dog is crate trained and can be separated if your pet does not get along with other animals.

“Bri was great! She sent me photos everyday and was great at communicating with me. I’m definitely using her services again on my next trip. Honey seemed very comfortable with her and she was in good hands while I was gone. Thank you Bri for everything and I’ll be calling you again for my next trip!”

“Stephanie took wonderful care of our two cats. She sent great updates and photos to keep us updated every day. I would highly recommend her services!”

“Natalie spent three days with my kitties as I was away on vacation, and I was so happy with her professionalism and genuine love for animals! I knew my kitties would be cared for with love and care. She sent many photos and kept me updated on how they were doing. She even vacuumed my apartment and left it looking great! I will be reaching out to her soon to watch my lovebugs again!! She's the best.”

About: Hello! If you can’t tell by our pics already, our family just love pups! We understand how nerve racking it can be to leave your pup in a new place while you’re away, but we can assure you that you’ll have peace of mind with us. We keep you updated with pics/videos and inform you how they’re doing constantly. My husband is in the military and is home for a good portion of his time, so we both do the caring at home full-time. This means your pup(s) will always have my kids and I to play/cuddle with :) and my husband to go on jogs for the pups with extra energy 🥰. We’ve cared for numerous pups ranging from puppies to seniors so we can accommodate any special requests you may have. We do not believe in caging/kenneling any dogs (unless the owner mandates it), so they are free to roam throughout the home. We’re both huge dog lovers and will ensure to provide your pup with the love and care they deserve. If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to message me and I will get back to you ASAP! We do offer a pick-up and drop-off service, but only if the Carmel/Monterey area. If this is your first time using Rover, please use my promo code for $20 off your first booking! SERGIM41358, https://www.rover.com/sit/ If your booking request overlaps a holiday, the holiday rate will only be charged for the holiday weekend. The rest of the nights will be charged at our regular rate. This is something I will adjust once I receive a request because Rover’s system charges the holiday rate for the full stay. I've established a schedule that ensures each dog gets adequate attention, exercise, feeding, and playtime. Mornings typically begin with a walk, followed by feeding. Throughout the day, I run play sessions to ensure pups get the socialization and activity they need. Evenings are reserved for another walk and some relaxation time. The well-being and happiness of every dog in my care is my utmost priority, and I always strive to provide a home away from home experience for them. In my home, pets are treated as part of the family. I ensure they have a designated, comfortable space to rest and sleep. I stick to a consistent feeding schedule, always providing fresh water and food. Daily exercise, whether it's walks or playtime, is a must. Beyond their physical needs, I prioritize their emotional well-being by providing ample attention, affection, and stimulation through toys and interaction.

About: I have a lifelong love for animals and am really missing having pets around! I’ve grown up with all sorts of dog breeds ranging from Pit Bulls to Havanese and feel comfortable around them all. I’ve also opened my home to foster dogs, embracing the joys and challenges that come with caring for both older dogs and newborn puppies. My commitment to the well-being of these animals extends beyond routine care to creating a warm and loving environment that caters to their individual needs. I have a fully remote job so I am at my house most of the day with lots of spare time for walks and cuddles. While we are in the upper unit of a duplex, we have a fully fenced yard and live in a great very walkable neighborhood. I have space in my house for a crate and any other supplies needed to make your pet feel comfortable. I live with my boyfriend who is also a huge animal lover so rest assured your pet will get plenty of love and attention! Please note we do have stairs to get up to our unit with a large deck that gets lots of sun!

About: I love hanging out with animals and understand how hard it can be to leave them behind while on vacation. I've been trusted to care for many family and friends' houses and pets over the years, mostly dogs and cats but also fish, and even a hedgehog! I've had experience with dog training as well. I'm currently working on writing a book, so my schedule is very flexible with plenty of time to devote attention to your furry family members. I take care to be especially mindful of the pets particular routine and boundaries and do my best to keep things as normal and stable for them as possible.

About: I grow up with animals since I born. As a trainer, my close circle always trusts me to take care their pets. I am an influencer (300K followers, you can check how legit and trustworthy I am, cuz I am partnering with worldwide companies & showing my peaceful daily life), so I am creating my own schedule. Animals are my true passion & they all are my babies to me! I love them all so I choose to be a professional pet carer. I have extensive experience with animals. For their separation anxiety I prefer to watch them in their own environment. Since I was a teenager, I was helping street dogs & cats to found homes. I took classes, and I learned how to take care animals. I learned about proper diet, housing, and medical care for variety of animals. I have lots of experience with other animals as well as dogs & cats. I am super familiar with bunnies, turtles, chickens, cows, goats, sheeps, ducks, birds especially since I am a kid, I spent my holidays at my father’s farms. Your pets will stay happily entertained to have the best Pawsome VIP Vacation! We will have so much fun together with your dearies especially at the beach! I want to make sure you will be so happy and at peace leaving your pup with me; with their new best friend! I welcome meet & greets at parks, but they are not required. I can do long walks, plays, and every other needings for our dearest animals! I guarantee it will be a Dog Gone GOOD Time! I am home and at parks all of the time with All My Dearie Guest Paws and I love it! This is my full time job, and my day centers around their care, safety, health, entertainment, and much happiness in the most hygienic PawsInn! I am a full time pet carer & that is the only way how I can see possible to do pet sitting & training job proper. I can fully supervise “kids” and make sure they all good and happy ;) Kindly give a bath to your most lovely puppies before giving them to me pretty please. Otherwise I need to give bath & grooming for my dearie guest paws. I will charge it. I have a fenced front yard, backyard at PawsInn, so I am supervising dearly puppies all the time, even when they are having fun at my garden. We shall do long walks, plays at the safest neighborhood parks, and fenced football fields constantly. My favorite park is next to my home, and it is our favorite because I can safely let few puppies run there leash free since this park all fenced up. My favorite is taking dogs for a hike, bike to open space county parks, beaches, trail with nice cool creeks, and lots of shade where dogs can hang by creek especially at hot weather, and cool off by keeping paws and belly in a water. We love it! If you are my very new client with new puppies for me, I'd like to get to know them in a neutral environment, like a beach or park, before taking them to my house. This will allow me to observe their behavior, energy levels, and personalities. I'd like to take them for a long walk and get acquainted with them before proceeding. This helps me ensure a smooth and enjoyable experience for both the puppies, and of course me as a trainer with my previous experiences with other new clients I always do this technique. I can definitely take care of your pets medical supports as needed. In case you forgot their bowls, toys, items, blankets or beds, I provide! Everything is EZ at the PawsInn. Attention please! If your dog is needing special care / untrained: can’t hold pee & poop / constantly barking / can not walk properly - pulling so hard / damaging to the house / biting / not friendly with other puppies : it costs $350 per day per puppy.

“Ryan was quick to respond, easy to work with, and sent plenty photos throughout the week. Thank you!”

About: I have grown up with dogs my entire life and enjoy taking them on fun walks or energetic hikes to keep them healthy and happy! I am currently working part-time, so I have a flexible schedule to hang out with furry friends. I have a changing schedule that varies week to week, but I am happy to find a time that works for us both. I am committed to making you and your dogs comfortable and happy. Safety is my priority, and I focus on maintaining an enjoyable and positive environment for your pup.

About: I can't remember a time when there wasn't an animal in my household whether it was a bird, dog, or cat my family has always had some kind of pet. Currently, I have 1 pitbull named Athena back at home. As you can guess I have done my fair share of dog walking. In addition to my family's pet history, I have worked with a variety of animals including cats, birds, horses, and pigs. I also intern at 2 vet clinics where I deal with dogs of all sizes. I am open to working with all breeds and sizes and would love to get to know you as an owner and your pet! I am currently a college student on summer vacations and can accommodate pet walking on Mondays and Tuesdays and early morning on the weekends (Saturday and Sunday). I can ensure that your pet will be safe with me. If accommodations for your pet are needed I am more than happy to put those accommodations into place, as your pet's saftey and happiness are my number 1 concern.

“Amy did an amazing job caring for my cats! The house was clean and orderly when I returned. I would definitely book her services in the future!”
