“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.

“Very nice and super accommodating! It was my first time leaving my two working dogs to be watched by someone and she did an amazing job! She was super flexible and was great with the dogs.

“Sonia did a great job caring for our two dogs! She communicated regularly and ensured the girls had everything they needed while we were away. We appreciate her help!”
About: I’ve taken care of pets around my neighborhood since I was a kid, and I have a history of bonding with cats who are said to not like people My only weekly commitment over the summer is a research project at CSUMB, so I can drop by pretty much any time you need me to! I’ll fulfill your pet’s needs with kindness and as much energy as they need. Although you’ll be gone, you can rest assured they won’t get bored or lonely.
“Olivia provided excellent care for my Siberian Husky at my home during my weekend trip. She was punctual, sent updates with pictures, accommodated a last-minute booking, and was flexible with the schedule. I would confidently recommend her services for dog sitting or walking.”
“My husband (Brian ) and I were very pleased with our first experience using Harrah for an overnight pet sitting. She has a very calm demeanor which our dog likes. We’re not your “typical people”, because we have a very high maintenance dog and are very detailed with our expectations. Harrah took notes and listened well with our protocol. When we returned home we could tell right away that Max was happy and content. (Unlike past vacations retuning home finding our dog had anxiety thru the roof 🥺) We also gave her additional responsibility to feed our Koi pond which again she was stellar at. We highly recommend Harrah for pet sitting and have already booked her for three more trips. 🐾🐶”
“Excellent job. My Rick was happy, healthy and calm and did not appear to have missed me at all, LOL. Mary left everything in tidy order and communicated when she had questions. She followed the care instructions and improvised skillfully - I appreciate her providing great care of my Rick🤗”
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.
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.
“David communicated very well and always checked in if anything was surprising. Our dog and our house were both left in good shape. We'd be happy to have David watch her again.”
About: I’ve grown up with dogs all my life and genuinely love caring for all animals. I am also a volunteer at Hitchcock Road Animal Shelter located in Salinas, CA. Most importantly, I will ensure your pet is well cared for at all times. 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.
“Asja was so helpful! Everything went great while we were away. She even was flexible when our flight got delayed a day and took great care of our pup. Will definitely trust her with our home and dog again.”
About: The most strange pet I've taken care of has been a squirrel, always accommodating to any situation and special care. Give me a list of all your expectations and I'll make sure to tick them all. I dedicate my college breaks to pet-sitting which is perfect for those looking for holiday care; winter break & spring break and as well as summer vacation care. Always set a time in my schedule for walks and gladly would provide that for the pets in my care as well as attentiveness for medications and special needs.
About: I’ve pet sat for family and friends who had dogs , cats , and hamsters. I also have experience with guinea pigs and bunnies also. I am currently working a temporary part time.

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.”
