Dog Walking Carmel Valley Manor

“Gabrielle and I have been working together to learn how to care for my three dogs. I have a German Shepherd who needs time and patience before he'll accept a new person. Gabrielle has walked with us a handful of times now to gain my dog's trust and to learn how to properly handle him. She is very patient, has solid background knowledge in dog training, and is very open to learning what works best for our family. I'm very happy with the amount of time Gabrielle has spent with us and I'm confident that she'll be able to handle our pups when we go on our next vacation.”

About: I have the most experience with various dog breeds young and old. More recently I have grown to also love and care for cats. Most of my full time experience has been with my personal dogs. Zoe, an Australian Shepard, was a shining light in my life for 14 years. Prior to Zoe I had Max, a sweet and gentle Rottweiler I was with for 6 years. For the past 4 years I've been spending a lot of time caring for the beloved pets and homes of my friends and family. I'm a retired teacher so my schedule is pretty flexible. I do some regular volunteer work with cancer patients a few hours each week. I walk or hike daily and a furry companion would be welcome. It's one of the main reasons I signed up for Rover! I am also now on Trusted Housesitters and have experience caring for pets in client's homes. I could have a pet in my home for short visits. I live near a lovely wooded trail that dogs LOVE.

“We loved having Mari watch our pup. Her calm, peaceful nature was exactly what I look for when leaving my doggo with someone new. If I lived here, I would not hesitate to have her come on a regular basis. Perfect! Thanks Mari 🐶”

About: Hello, my name is Sonia! I have worked with various organizations throughout Monterey County, where I received training in animal behavior and boarding. Over the past five years, I’ve gained valuable experience creating daily routines that help animals feel comfortable and cared for. I am currently a volunteer at the SPCA clinic as a vet assistant, and help at the cat and dog adoption center. I have also worked at a local veterinary clinic and am now a full-time Rover sitter! I am CPR certified and comfortable administering both oral medications and injections. During my time on Rover, I’ve had the pleasure of meeting so many wonderful pets and building great relationships with both them and their owners. I love sending daily photos and updates so pet parents can feel at ease while they’re away. Please feel free to reach out with any questions or concerns—I’m always happy to help. Thank you! :) P.S. My pup Tommy does not accompany me to visits or house sittings, so no worries if your pet prefers to be the only animal in the home. :) Hello, welcome to my page! A little about me: I have a degree in Molecular Biology from California State University, Monterey Bay (CSUMB) and am currently pursuing a degree in Diagnostic Medical Sonography. My school schedule is Monday, Wednesday, and Friday from 6:00 AM to 1:00 PM. Outside of those hours, I have flexible availability, including Tuesdays, Thursdays, weekends, and most afternoons and evenings. I’m available for house sitting, drop-in visits, and dog walks. I love getting to know each pet’s unique personality and routine, so I always like to schedule a meet-and-greet beforehand. It gives us a chance to make sure everyone feels comfortable and helps me provide the best care possible for your furry family member. I look forward to meeting you and your pets! I have 9 years of previous experience with boarding animals and work well with sticking to the specifics of every pet's needs. I have experience with all different breeds, including those requiring extra medical attention. I am trained in administering injections as well. I can also care for reptiles, birds, and any other pet in the household.

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.

“Katt is an incredible dog walker! From the moment she arrived, my dogs were instantly comfortable with her. She was warm, attentive, smart, and asked all the right questions. She came prepared with a fantastic treat bag and a solid understanding and positive reinforcement. She handled my two energetic dogs with ease and confidence, and I immediately felt at ease knowing they were great hands. I couldn’t have been happier to find her - highly recommend just after one walk!”

“Asja did great with Lincoln. We could tell when we got home that he had a good long walk and he was very happy and relaxed for us for the evening. He is a big dog so to know he was taken care of so well is such a gift! Thank you!”

I am confident that any future client will be very pleased with the care and attention their pets receive from me. Thank you for any consideration and I hope you find the right match for you furry family member. My calendar is pretty wide open these days because I'm studying for my phlebotomy classes, which means your pup gets my full attention (and gives me the perfect excuse to take a study break!). Fresh air, leisurely walks, and stopping to sniff every interesting bush. That's my specialty. I'm not in a rush, so your dog can set the pace, whether they're an energetic explorer or a professional squirrel watcher. Before your pup and I head out on any adventures, safety always comes first. With your permission, I'll use my own AirTag attached securely to your dog's collar for an extra layer of peace of mind while we're out and about. I'll also send plenty of photo updates as often as you'd like, so you can see how much fun your furry family member is having and know they're safe, happy, and well cared for.

About: Hi! My name is Kaitlyn, and I’m a dependable, caring pet sitter who truly loves animals. I grew up with dogs and have experience caring for both dogs and cats.

About: Hi, my name is Landon, I'm from Salinas, California and it's my second year living in Eugene. I attended the university last year and now I'm taking a gap year to get my financials in order, in state tuition, etc. so I can finish my degree. My girlfriend and I have been together 3 years and her parents have 17 and 20 years of experience in the animal field. Her dad is one of the head animal control officers for Monterey County (where we're from) and has taught both of us so much about dogs and cats. Whether it be training methods, foods that are better than others, how to recognize certain behavioral habits, or any problem we come to him with, her dad has taught us how to truly take the best care of a dog. If I were to be accepted to take care of your pet, I would use all of my tools and knowledge and my whole heart to show your furry kid love. Currently, I'm looking for any job so my schedule is wide open! Caring for your pet will be at the top of my list as soon as I hear I can take care of them. So I unfortunately would not be able to care for pets at my house for extended periods of time, as my place doesn't allow ownership of pets, but one night wouldn't hurt at all. Any pet I encounter I treat as if it were my own, and with that comes smothering them with love, and caring to meet their needs as a pup while to a certain degree, spoiling them!

I like starting things off at a slower pace so your pet can become used to me, depending on the pet I love to provide lots of playtime and attention once your pet is comfortable. Your pets comfort and needs come first!

About: I love all animals! I am attentive and genuinely care. I understand that pets are family members, and I treat them with the same love, patience, and respect that I would give my own. I take the time to learn each pet's unique personality, routines, and needs so they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owners are away. I am dependable, attentive to detail, and committed to maintaining a pet's normal routine to reduce stress and provide consistency, to ensure both pets and their owners have peace of mind. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals and prioritize their well-being. I structure my schedule to ensure pets receive consistent attention, exercise, companionship, and care throughout the day. I understand the importance of reliability and communication, and I make your pet my priority. Caring for animals brings me joy, and I take pride in providing a loving, safe, and dependable presence while their families are away.

About: Hi! My name is McKayla and I am a big animal lover!! I have two friendly kitties named Snowbell and Penny, and a Boston Terrier named Sophie. In the past, I gained experience dog/cat sitting for family friends, but I am looking forward to broadening my care to dogs/cats in the neighborhood! I love going on long walks with my dog, so I thought it would be perfect to get the opportunity to help others out by walking theirs! I also love to cuddle my animals and give them some special attention, and I hope through Rover that I can spread more love to some furry friends! I live in a beautiful gated housing community so it is the perfect spot for long walking routes! If Its checking in on pets, I will be sure to make sure they get some special attention too:)

“Carol agreed in Oct to have visits to meet our dog in preparation for Xmas trip. Our dog is really scared of strangers. It took 6-7 visits for our dog to get used to Carol. Carol was very patient with it. She was flexible working out times and was able to do some walking visits at Xmas. She contacted us with updates and questions and we felt like our dog was in good hands. We will continue to work with Carol now that our dog has another person she likes! ”

About: Personalized occupations, 24/7 pet sitting with daily photo updates, multiple pet care, and tailored care plans, ensuring your pet’s happiness and your peace of mind🩶.

All while making sure your lovable animals have a stress free and loving environment.💌

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 (400K 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 sitter. 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 do have lot 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!
