Talk about a lifesaver! Bria came through for us when we needed her most, taking care of our two dogs on extremely short notice while we visited the aquarium. Her flexibility and willingness to help last-minute truly made our day. Our pups were well-exercised and happy when we returned, which was well appreciated. Communication was excellent throughout, and she sent adorable updates that gave us peace of mind while we were enjoying the aquarium. If you need a trustworthy, responsive, and genuinely caring dog walker, look no further than Bria. We'll definitely be booking her services again!​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

You will never regret hiring, Arlene. Your pet will feel like they are being cared for by their own and may even want to stay with her. Arlene has been our dog walker and caregiver since 2019. She's the best we have ever had and this is coming from a previous dog sitter.

Angie is great with my dog, Spike. She was reliable and took him on long walks which he loves. Spike has some reactive tendencies but Angie was able to work through these issues and give him a comfortable atmosphere to walk in. I am very satisfied with Angie's services and would highly recommend.

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.

About: 10 yrs vet hospital experience (8 yrs as a vet assistant & 2 client liaison) Why do I love pet sitting? Because they mean the world to you. I not only care about my furry friends but also their owners. My professional relationship is one you can count on. I have extensive experience with cats & dogs (among other animals). I joined the veterinary field as a veterinary assistant in 2008 at a small clinic in my hometown. I got 2 years of hands-on experience before I took the opportunity to work at the *San Francisco SPCA. I served there 2010 to 2018 as a veterinary assistant. I was promoted to client liaison & grew into other opportunities to work more with the public. In my non-work life, I have cared for: Mice, Rats, Hamsters, Chickens, Birds, Guinea Pigs, Cats, Dogs, & Horses. I thrive on interaction with both people & animals. I look forward to meeting you & your furry friend. My experience administering medication I am fully trained in subcutaneous injections & fluid administration. I am capable of giving oral medication to difficult patients. My career has led me out of the veterinary clinics and into human clinics. I love all earthlings and my skills have never faltered. I look forward to caring for your littles, your bigs, or in-betweens! I usually have plenty of time for my furry friends who need attention. I am flexible around my work schedule as my clients need me. The pet's needs come first. Keeping them safe, entertained, clean, and happy. My petcare mantra: A tired dog is a happy dog. Show a cat your devotion and they'll curl up in your lap.

Javier was terrific with our Standard Poodle and small, untrained terrier who can be fearful of strangers. Javier was prompt and after each walk, both pups returned wagging from nose to tail. He is an excellent communicator and always let us know his status. He sent us photos on each walk. We would happily hire Javier again.

I currently volunteer at a local K-9 rescue & have complete flexibility for pet sitting in your home or walking your dog(s). I am currently on Trusted HouseSitters watching pups in their own homes.

About: Prior to now, I have owned two dog boutique hotels that I have personally built from the ground up. I am familiar with all kinds of doggies and their personalities. All doggies are special to me and will receive nothing but the best of care and affection. I am currently taking care of pups in your own home unless we discuss and or have made other arrangements. I am also a commissioned artist so I would not be leaving to another job, your pup(s) would be my only concern. I might go run a couple errands, grocery store, etc... but I would enjoy just being home with your pups and painting, exercising them, playing with them or just doing whatever they are familiar in doing with you. As to your own personal instructions only. I understand, every dog has their own individual personality and each puppy has special needs. I will accompany each puppy as you wish.

About: I love all dogs and especially the wild working breeds and their silly personalities! From Malinois to Plott Hounds, I am experienced in caring for the special needs of high drive dogs. I have my own working line shepherd who has been working through trauma induced reactivity issues, and I am *very* sensitive to behavior modification training. (No other animals will join in any appointments with clients.) I also adore puppies and their velociraptor ways, and do not charge additional base fees to work with them. I can't wait to meet you and you furry best friends! I am a full time remote worker and have a highly flexible schedule. The company operates during normal business hours, and my weekends are generally open. My offerings are for care within a client's home, and to take dogs on walks near their home. Please tell me about what your canine pal loves to do. Play ball? Sniff out squirrels? Take a leisurely stroll? Become one with the couch? :)

About: I am new to this app, but I’m not new to loving and caring for dogs. I treat every doggy like they’re my own because to me, this is more than just a job, it’s about building trust and creating a safe, loving space while you're away. Whether it's a walk, playtime, or cozy cuddles on the couch, I’m here to give your dog the same love and care you would. I’m available Monday through Friday, with the exception of Friday mornings. On weekends, I’m also available and happy to help with walks, drop-ins, or overnight stays. I provide care in your dog’s home, where they feel safest and most comfortable. I don’t think I will be providing services in my own home since it’s an apartment, but I’m more than happy to come to yours, whether that’s for walks, feedings, playtime, or just keeping your doggy company. I’ll treat your home with the same care and respect I give your dog, and I’ll always follow your instructions closely to make sure everything runs smoothly while you’re away.

About: Hello! I'm currently on Summer break from a Graduate program I'm doing at the Middlebury Institute here in Monterey. I have always grown up with animals in my house (dogs, cats, hamsters, fish!) and have a dog of my own whom is very sweet, gets along with all animals, and is used to being around many animals. I have worked as a dog walker, and have house-sat and dog-sat for many people. I have references if needed. I hope I can be of assistance to you and your pet family, thank you! I'm available throughout the Summer to house-sit and/or dog sit weekdays and weekends. I do have my own dog (10 year old Chihuahua) who gets along with all animals and has accompanied me in the past house sitting and dog sitting that I've done. I treat other's pets as if they were my own. I follow the wishes of the owner's guidelines for their pets while giving them love, lots of walks, and treats. :)

About: I've had dogs nearly my entire life, enjoying them from puppyhood to senior age. As my kids grew up, I have also taken care of hamsters, bunnies, lizards, turtles, and parakeets. But most of all, I love dogs. My dog Rainie is an English lab, half chocolate/half yellow who loves playing with other dogs, especially other labs. I'm very familiar with the needs and limitations of senior dogs and can adapt our routines accordingly. I only host one dog at a time to ensure everyone gets enough peace and pettings. We can host caged pets at the same time (small reptiles and parakeets). I'm retired and can host your pet anytime with advance notice. My calendar will accurately indicate my availability. My regular routine includes walking and gardening with our guest dogs. I have a large fenced yard and a single level home 8 steps above ground. Your dog will spend most of their time wherever I happen to be and will be given regular potty breaks. Your dog will enjoy romping in the yard for extended periods under supervision, but will not be left unattended in the yard. Please provide detailed feeding and medication instructions and I will follow them to the letter. Tell me about your dog's special likes, dislikes, fears, and behavioral quirks so we can make dog feel at home. Your dog must be able to manage the steps to get in and out of the house, be willing to use the doggie ramp, or be small enough for me to carry up and down. Must be housebroken. Please provide crate if crate trained and more comfortable in the crate. Or, provide favorite bed or blanket. Otherwise, we have a collection of blankets. Please bring your dog's favorite toy. Some large dogs accepted, depending on size, breed, and degree of training. A meet and greet is a must for most dogs. Pit bulls, Rottweilers, and Dobermans will not be accepted under any circumstances. I realize that many individual dogs are very sweet, but as a rule, these breeds unnerve me, and the dog will sense that.

Julia quickly became an essential help for me to get my dog Rocky stimulation and exercise that allowed me to focus on the primary reason for my trip! She is knowledgeable of all of the dog fun-spots and very aware of safety of the pets she cares for. Julie communicated often and it felt like I was along for the fun. She sent pictures that quickly became favorites on Facebook and most of all, she developed a bond with Rocky where he loved every visit and I could tell she enjoyed Rocky as well! I highly recommend Julia for all your pet needs in the Carmel area!

About: I live in a very dog friendly community. Across the street from my house is a big grass area for the dogs to play. Down the street is a dog park and a baseball field to play fetch and for the dogs to have time to just be dogs. Because I live so close to old Fort Ord there are numerous trails within walking distance from my house to take the pups on an adventure. During the week I work at a barn where I get to bring the dogs to work with me, so your pet would be with me 24/7. My dogs are extremely friendly and I’ve fostered dogs in the past. After work I usually take my dogs to the beach or on a long walk. They get fed am and pm and will be flexible to your dogs needs. They are more than welcome to sleep on the bed with me or use one of the two massive dog beds I have. Let’s not forget about the abundance of dog toys I have to keep everyone happy!!! I work at a barn so the dogs come to work with me. While working, they get free range of the office. Throughout the day I take them out numerous times for potty brakes. After work we go on a long walk or play ball down the street from from my house in the field. I have two small backyards the dogs have full access to. My larger pup doesn’t like to use the yards to go potty so I take him on routine walks to do his business. Again, I do work, but the pups always come with me so they are never left home alone.

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.

I have trusted Lauren with my beloved dogs for 7 years. She genuinely loves dogs! She enjoys each of their personalities and quirks. If there was a emergency I know that she would handle it without hesitation. With Lauren watching my boys I can go on trips or be gone for a day and know they are be spoiled with a lots of snuggles and play time. They have specialized food and times to eat. She worked with our schedule. As a pet owner we considered our 4 legged boys are family. At one point I was scheduled to go on a trip when one of the dogs got hurt, he was on medication which was scheduled 4x a day. We had already paid for our flights and hotel. After discussing my concerns with Lauren and possibly canceling the trip, she assured me that he would be very well taken care of and she was correct. I came back to to a very happy boy and the injury was healed. THANK YOU LAUREN. We were able to go on a our trip. I only wish she was babysitting as well. She is passionate, loving and will go beyond for your beloved pet

Ashley is THE pet whisperer. Not only does she love animals, they love her! Somehow even the most difficult dog or the finickiest cat pay attention and are drawn to her. Ashley has cat sat for me many times and set a high bar for others. Both my cat and I were sad when she moved away. Your pet and it’s care will be in the best hands.

Brianna is great with pets. She is responsible, reliable, loving, patient, passionate about her job. Brianna handles pet care like if it's her own, giving all the time and attention your fur-baby may need until your return. I definitely recommend Brianna for any pet service needed.

I have known Nina for about 20 years, and she is one of the most caring and resposible people I've ever met. One very strong testumonial of her ability to care for animals is that of her own dog, Scruffy, an adopted terrior mix that lived for nearly 20 years! Her love and excellent care of animals also extends to her pet tortoise Sally and the bearded dragons she that she has taken care of and raised. My dog Sunny loves to visit Nina and her husband, and especially her dog Chloe. He has great fun playing playing with Chloe in her spacious yard. Importantly, Nina is extremely knowledgeable about the care and behavior of dogs, as she has had them most of her life. Rover would do very well to add such a conscientious and competant caregiver to their team.

Julia quickly became an essential help for me to get my dog Rocky stimulation and exercise that allowed me to focus on the primary reason for my trip! She is knowledgeable of all of the dog fun-spots and very aware of safety of the pets she cares for. Julie communicated often and it felt like I was along for the fun. She sent pictures that quickly became favorites on Facebook and most of all, she developed a bond with Rocky where he loved every visit and I could tell she enjoyed Rocky as well! I highly recommend Julia for all your pet needs in the Carmel area!

Delaney would be a great pet caregiver for Rover.com. She loves animals, is extremely patient and is a great communicator. She understands the importance of keeping a pet stimulated through play, training and teaching new tricks. She also likes spending quiet time with the pets when needed. She is very responsible, reliable and honest. Your pet would be lucky to have her as their caregiver.

About: I live in a very dog friendly community. Across the street from my house is a big grass area for the dogs to play. Down the street is a dog park and a baseball field to play fetch and for the dogs to have time to just be dogs. Because I live so close to old Fort Ord there are numerous trails within walking distance from my house to take the pups on an adventure. During the week I work at a barn where I get to bring the dogs to work with me, so your pet would be with me 24/7. My dogs are extremely friendly and I’ve fostered dogs in the past. After work I usually take my dogs to the beach or on a long walk. They get fed am and pm and will be flexible to your dogs needs. They are more than welcome to sleep on the bed with me or use one of the two massive dog beds I have. Let’s not forget about the abundance of dog toys I have to keep everyone happy!!! I work at a barn so the dogs come to work with me. While working, they get free range of the office. Throughout the day I take them out numerous times for potty brakes. After work we go on a long walk or play ball down the street from from my house in the field. I have two small backyards the dogs have full access to. My larger pup doesn’t like to use the yards to go potty so I take him on routine walks to do his business. Again, I do work, but the pups always come with me so they are never left home alone.

Becca took care of my two pets (cat Rachel and hedgehog Sheldon) for 3 weeks while I was away on holidays. Becca shared updates with me about how they are doing all the time and we had a really good communication throughout the whole site. When I came home, everything was great and I could see that Rachel and Sheldon are well taken care of! I was very happy with this experience and can definitely recommend Becca for others ☺️
