Doggy Day Care Del Monte Forest

“Denise was great. Sent pictures and video. Kept us up to date on how he was doing. Put out minds at ease for first time leaving him with a stranger.”

“Johemy was great! My little Brigid was so well cared for. I love leaving her with someone who is loving and caring. I appreciate how nurturing she was to her. I would definitely recommend!”

Stephanie O.

“As someone who has used rover for years I can say Mary was five stars. She was wonderful with my very anxious cattle dog. Her warm calm presence was perfect for mags temperament. She gave me great feedback during the stay and sent pictures. She knew exactly what to do to keep mag as comfortable as possible in a new environment. I felt so confident that he would be okay with her. 10/10 recommend her with your pets. Thank you Mary!”

“Our pups had an amazing time staying with Elizabeth while my partner and I went to the aquarium and had lunch in Carmel. Would absolutely leave them with her again next time we're in Monterey. We picked them up happy and tired, they loved their day trip with Elizabeth and her husband!”

“Jesse took great care of our dog Kiké when we took a last-minute day trip. He gave Kiké plenty of walks, sent pictures and updates, and kindly accommodated a late pick-up time. Thanks you, Jesse!”

“Dilan was very kind and attentive to our blind rescue poodle Sugar and Melody was a perfect canine host. In turn Sugar was extremely happy and calm even though she always had severe separation anxiety due to her condition. Dilan is very communicative and understanding so you can trust your pet will be well taken care of.”

About: As a pet owner myself, I know how important it is to find someone you can trust with your furry family member. I have experience with dogs of all sizes, from my teacup Pomeranian to my German Shepherd, as well as caring for puppies, senior pets, and cats. I’m attentive to each pet’s individual needs, whether that means playtime and exercise, sticking to a routine, or providing extra patience and comfort. My goal is always to make pets feel safe, loved, and at home while their owners are away. Im currently working part time remote, so I have time to be with your pup! From spending time at the house, walks, park time and play time. I’m available during the week and weekends I have a box of toys and brain stimulating toys, I take my dogs to the park to keep them moving and social. I have a friendly social dog that you’re baby can be with or I easily crate your If needed.

“Christina, Brennan, and Juliana took great care of my little old lady and I am so grateful for them! They were all super understanding of my dog’s needs and they provided updates which I really appreciated.”

About: I am very experienced in taking care of dogs of all sizes and ages. Love teaching dogs new tricks. I have a highly active lifestyle and I will exercise your dog as much or however you want (walk, run, dog park, etc.). I guarantee they will be ready for a nap when you get them back! Your dog is welcome in my home and will be treated like family. They will be given as much attention and care as possible. I will try to accommodate any special needs/requests or schedules, please don’t be shy about asking for anything. Looking forward to caring for your four-legged family member!

“While visiting Carmel, we needed someone to care for our miniature Australian Shepherd for a day. With no experience leaving Blu with anyone locally, we chose David through Rover. We met David for an introductory visit and he gave us a tour of his excellent facilities, introduced Blu to his own dog and cat, and immediately put us all at ease. When our plans changed at the last minute, he was flexible and accommodating. At drop-off, Blu quickly settled into his surroundings, and the photos David shared showed he was comfortable and had made himself right at home. When we picked him up, he was happy—and pleasantly tired. We highly recommend David.”

“Kalikonani is a lovely young lady who kindly cares for her dog and another small, older dog. She asked several questions before accepting the booking to be sure it would be a comfortable and safe environment for those (charming) dogs and mine. She gave me a detailed account of the entire time my dog was there with several photos. I would definitely book her again if I lived in the area or if I visit again.”

Kendra O.

“Móle had a great time with Kelly and her family while we spent the day with our little human at the Monterey aquarium. Kelly was super responsive, and constantly sent us updates! This ended up being perfect for me as Kelly's is just a few minutes away from the hotel we are staying at. Highly recommended and would def come back!”

Jared H.

“She was amazing! I was able to book last minute, she kept in contact with me while she had my dog. He seemed to really enjoy hanging out with her and her family and I very grateful to her.”

Alexandra H.

“Emily was fantastic. She was quick to respond before our doggy daycare stay, and was super responsive during the stay. She sent lots of photos and updates, which was so reassuring. She had a great yard and a couple other pup playmates. We’ll be leaving Coco with Emily again for sure!”

About: Hi! I’m Elizabeth — a lifelong animal lover offering dog walking and active, attentive daycare in the Monterey, Pacific Grove, and Carmel area. I provide more than just supervision — I offer an *adventure-based* experience for your dog. I spend most of my days outdoors with my very active toddler, exploring local trails, beaches, and neighborhoods, and I love bringing dogs along for the experience. This works great for both daily walks and doggy daycare. Whether it’s a long walk, a nature-filled outing, or plenty of time to sniff and explore, your dog will get real engagement and exercise — not just time in a yard. For doggy daycare, your pup will be out and about with us, enjoying fresh air, movement, and stimulation throughout the day. Because my child is always with me it’s important that dogs are **friendly, gentle, and comfortable around young children** for everyone’s safety. I grew up on a farm surrounded by animals — often with 8–10 dogs on the property at a time — so I’m very comfortable reading behavior, managing different temperaments, and keeping things calm and positive. You can expect thoughtful care, regular updates, and a genuine love for getting dogs out into the world. If you’re looking for someone who will treat your dog to a safe, active, and enriching day, I’d love to connect! 🐾 I have a flexible schedule that allows me to consistently walk and care for animals throughout the week. I maintain a trusted routine with several pets and would love to welcome yours into the mix. When caring for pets in a client’s home I ensure each pet receives personalized attention based on their unique needs. I adhere to the routines and instructions provided by the pet owners, including feeding schedules, exercise routines, and any special care requirements.

“Athena watched our large breed dog for two nights in a row and we were extremely happy with how she took care of him and handled the entire process! She responds extremely quickly to all messages and was very friendly and happy to have Bruiser in her house, which was beautiful and very clean. We could tell she had prepared to watch Bruiser and listened to all of our notes and instructions for him. Bruiser can sometimes be antsy when in a new place or with strangers, but he seemed more at home with Athena than at our hotel! We are more than happy with Bruiser’s stay with Athena and will absolutely use her again next time we bring Bruiser to Carmel!”

About: There was never not a dog in my house growing up, so caring for dogs is second nature to me. Over the years I’ve taken care of everything from purebreds to mutts, and while I’ve always had a soft spot for rescues, I love all dogs equally and treat every one like family. I work primarily from home and have a very flexible schedule, which means I can offer plenty of attention and companionship throughout the day. Since I’m home most of the time, I’m available for walks, drop-in visits, feeding, playtime, and pet sitting on both weekdays and weekends. I know how important consistency is for pets, so I’ll always do my best to stick to their usual routine so they feel comfortable and secure. I live in a clean, quiet, pet-friendly home with my wife, who’s also a big animal lover. We don’t have kids or pets of our own, so we’re able to keep things calm and give your pet our full attention. Safety always comes first with me. I follow feeding, medication, and exercise instructions closely, and I’m happy to send regular updates and photos so you can relax knowing your pet is in good hands.

“Julia took fantastic care of our dog, Milo, while my husband and I went hiking in Big Sur. She went above and beyond to make sure that Milo had a fun day of adventure around town. It was clear that Julia was experienced and really loved dogs!”

“Ruth was awesome. She gave our lab a full day out at the beach, including afternoon tea. She also gave us some great restaurant recommendations. I would absolutely work with Ruth again.”

“Carol communicated well, and sent us pictures and a video of our little puppy throughout the day. When we went to pick Tucker up, he seemed content and relaxed. He was happy to see us but not anxious. It's relieving to find a caretaker who wants to spend quality time with our best friend And care for him in such a way as to make him feel at home. Thanks for taking care of our buddy, Carol!!”
