Pet Sitting Del Monte Forest

About: Am a proud pet owner of 12 years and counting! I have no experience with training puppies, but have experience with walking and picking up poop I am incredibly flexible, I understand life happens. I work from home and have a preference for caring for your fur babies in the morning & early afternoon time frame. With over 10 years of pet ownership experience, you can trust me with your precious fur baby! I will walk them until they potty, will keep distance from other people & animals, and let you know of any messes made in the house.

About: Lots of experience with reactive dogs. I've fostered many dogs (not currently fostering) that are adjusting to the world which has given me plenty of experience with reactive and hard to walk dogs. I will use a gentle leader for any dogs that excessively pull. Dogs of all ages welcome. Also happy to accommodate multiple miles walks should the dog need lots of exercise. I'm currently working on a master's degree and will have classes spread throughout the day but I have plenty of time for breaks to take care of midday potty/walk needs. Expect that I will execute any care requests you provide. Otherwise I will provide care, love and exercise for the pet as well as play time and quick command training!

About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats, as well as other animals like horses, otters, and seals! I love caring for and ensuring the well-being of all animals, regardless of size or breed. I am a marine biologist currently applying for graduate programs and have lots of availability! I spend lots of time working or walking which either cats or dogs would fit perfectly. I like to take notes and ask questions to ensure all logistics are taken care of when in a clients home. I prefer meet and greets prior to booking to make sure me and your fur baby are compatible as well as become familiar with the home.

About: I’ve been around cats my entire life and currently have two cats of my own, so I’m very comfortable with all kinds of feline personalities and needs. I love spending time with cats, whether that means playing, giving them attention and affection, or simply keeping them company :) I also have experience walking and pet-sitting dogs of different ages and personalities. I volunteer with Peace of Mind Dog Rescue, which has given me even more experience interacting with dogs. I genuinely enjoy getting to know each pet and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while their owners are away! I work from home so have a flexible schedule to check in on your cat(s) or dog(s) and take your furry friends for a walk! I am very active and love to be outside, so would love to get some fresh air with your pet. I will make sure to keep your pets safe and ensure that they’re kept on their leash for walks and in their safe space at their home.

About: I am new to Rover, but dogs and cats have been central to my life for as long as I can remember. Growing up, our home was a rotating little zoo — chicks, turtles, bunnies — but the loves of my life had four legs and fur. The first was Zhuzhu/Piggie, a Samoyed boy I got in middle school. If you know Samoyeds, you know: that cloud-like floof, that signature angel smile. I watched him grow from a tiny pup into a majestic, hefty pillow, and walked him through every kind of weather without a second thought. Then there are my two cats back at my parents' place. Bread — a white cat my sister rescued on a snack run when she found her shivering and stray on the street. She went out for bread and came home with something much better. And Xiaoxiao, an orange tabby my mom adopted — named "little" because he was the runt of the litter, though I suspect he's made up for it since. By luck, my husband and I had the opportunity to home a rescue cat, a tiny apricot baby only few weeks old, in early May 2026, and I have loved Mila like I had birthed him. I made milk formula for him 6 in the morning, fussed over his digestion and stool, took him to the vet multiple times, shopped products for him with the utmost meticulous manner. I know what your pet means to you. Your dog or cat won't just be in safe hands. They'll be fussed over, admired, and genuinely cherished. I'm currently working part-time, so I'll have plenty of time to play with your baby pet! I'm available for boarding, dog sitting/walking, cat sitting on weekends and weekdays before 4:30 pm. Due to my current living situation, I offer care in your home rather than mine, which honestly works out better for your cat anyway. Cats are creatures of habit and comfort, and staying in their own space, with their own smells, their own window perches and hiding spots, makes for a much less stressful experience than an unfamiliar environment. When I visit, I'll follow your routines to the letter — feeding schedules, litter scooping, fresh water, any medications or special instructions. I'm a respectful, tidy guest, and I'll leave your home exactly as I found it. My job is simple: keep your cat happy, safe, and well-loved until you're back.

About: I’ve had several loving dogs and cats in my life. I would love to help walk and show your pet some love when you are away from home. I am free in the mornings and evenings. I work from home so am also available during the day on select dates. I am free on weekends as well. I am unable to have pets at my rental property, but will show the upmost respect and care to your home during my visits with your pet.

About: I have had animals my entire life from dogs to cats to birds and many more taking care of animals makes me happy and i enjoy it very much I’m currently working part-time in the mornings so afternoon works great for me but on my days off I’m open all day I have owned big dogs and small dogs and know my strength so animals running off of a leash will be no problem with me

“Mallory was wonderful. She responded immediately and came to meet us. She was very flexible in accommodating our needs. Millie, our dog loved her. We were able to spend a day away without worrying about the dog. I would recommend her highly.”

“First time having Denise watch after my kitty who hadn't spent a night apart from me in 2 years, so I was concerned how it would go. But it seems Denise bonded quickly with my kitty and sent me photos during every visit which was much appreciated.”

About: Growing up on a ranch, animals have always been a big part of my life. Dogs, cats, pigs, chickens, horses, sheep, llamas, you name it! I can hardly remember a time in my life that there hasn't been a dog or cat (or several of each) sharing our home and consider myself lucky to have had them in my life. I have substantial experience with all age groups: puppies & kittens to mature pets needing special care. Working remotely, my schedule is very flexible in offering care of those in need. Kind, Caring, Responsible & Happy to help! I work remotely, with a very flexible schedule. It's easy for me to adjust to fit your pet's needs! I've called Monterey home for several decades, loving all that it has to offer & will take every excuse to be outside! Years of working in hospitality have engrained a deep sense of responsibility in caring for other's needs and by extension, their environment. Happy to help with yours!

“Alexa was fantastic. My dog loved seeing her every day and she was flexible and responsive to our scheduling needs. Can't ask for much more...”

“Elizabeth was an absolute miracle for Kona and for me. She is such a kind human, and it was immediately clear that she has an incredible capacity to care for and love the animals entrusted to her. This was my first time away from Kona since she lost her sister, and she has been noticeably more anxious since then. I was genuinely not confident I would be able to board that plane without worrying myself sick until I met Elizabeth. She immediately put me at ease. While I was gone, she was incredibly responsive and thorough. Her daily Rover cards were detailed, thoughtful, and honestly a joy to read. She is very witty, and more than once I found myself laughing at her updates. She also sent beautiful pictures that made it so obvious how much affection and attention Kona was receiving. What meant the most to me was how closely Elizabeth paid attention to Kona herself. She understood that Kona needed time and space to become comfortable, and she kept me updated as that trust gradually developed. I could see it happening in the photos and hear it in the way she described their time together. Elizabeth really cares. There is no question about that. Knowing Kona was with someone so attentive, patient, affectionate, and genuinely invested in her wellbeing gave me an enormous amount of comfort while I was away. I cannot thank her enough, and I would trust her with my little girl again without hesitation.”

“Sara did a great job for their first drop-in engagement with Leo and Phoebe. They followed directions well, including play time, administering medication, feeding, litter box hygiene and sending me updates. They were easy to communicate with and helped to transition Leo to new food and medication while I was out of town. I will be rebooking them. Thanks Sara!”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs for the last 5 years, including some that require medication. I’ve cared for friends and family’s pets along with occasional coworkers I’m currently not working a full time job so have plenty of time to spend with the pups or cats; walking, playing, any needed potty breaks. Although I cannot keep pets at my apartment, I make sure to create the safest place for any dog/cat I care for and make sure all their needs are met.

“Skylar is amazing. Went above and beyond for my kitties and had amazing communication. Will definitely be using her again…five stars aren’t enough for how great she was.”

Jenna J.

“Kaitlyn did fantastic with my cats! She accommodated a last minute trip extension as well. I would definitely book her again in the future.”

Elizabeth W.

“Megan was such a good pet sitter. She played with our cat, took great care of the place and sent cute pictures everyday of our cat having fun. Would highly recommend and will book her again!”

About: Hello! I am an active PG resident who LOVES animals. I have a job in Carmel that I adore, but I need more dogs/cats in my life! I have a leash-trained cat who traveled the country with me for 2 years, and he’s the light of my life, but I have more love to give. I’ve been professionally/informally caring for animals my entire life. I’ve worked primarily with dogs/cats, but have also lived on several farms around the world where I cared for: donkeys, horses, cows, sheep, goats, and chickens to name a few. Raising a leash-trained cat has been an eye opening experience for me. Because of it, I’m skilled at reading an animal’s emotional state, and am often able to redirect when an unwanted behavior begins brewing. I believe in positive reinforcement, respect, and play! I have experience training both dogs and cats (yes, cats can be trained!) Some unique things I bring to the table: - 20 years of experience caring for cats. I think I’m particularly good at caring for anxious kitties, and smart/active kitties (i.e. ones that LOVE being trained). - I’m an active and strong person. I can pretty much always meet a dog’s energy needs and provide a wide variety of different exercise (rollerskating alongside them, long walks, throwing balls, tug, running around with them). - The main reason I’ve rejoined Rover is because I simply want more animals in my life! I would love to foster dogs, but my current living situation doesn’t allow for that. I LOVE when my friends go away and ask me to care for their pets, but they don’t take enough vacations! ¨̮ I work in Carmel Monday through Friday, from 9-3, so I’m available weekday mornings/evenings, and any time over the weekend! My time is a bit more limited during the week, but on Saturdays and Sundays, I would be more than happy to provide several drop-ins/walks for your pet! As a pet parent myself, I know how important it is to keep your babies safe. Because I’ve been walking my cat for the past 6 years, I’ve had to learn how to read his body language, and the body language of the hundreds of dog’s we’ve interacted with. I’m by no means an expert, but I can often tell the difference between nervousness and excitement, stress and comfort, and anxiety and confidence. I strongly believe in positive reinforcement, respecting boundaries, and creating a loving relationship with animals. If your dog loves to constantly play tug, we’ll constantly play tug! If your cat is anxious and needs 30 minutes of playtime in order to feel relaxed around me, that’s what we’ll do! I love learning about an animal’s specific personality, and tailoring the kind of care I provide to exactly what they need!

“Lisa was great and very attentive to details and instructions. I also appreciate her being available last minute. My dog was so happy and enjoyed her walk and I’m glad I didn’t have to leave her alone!”

“Mary has been great with Murphy, my mom’s 10 year old Yorkie. My mom is 88 years old and loves that dog more than anything! She trusts very few people with Murphy, but she raves about how good Mary is with him. She feels comfortable leaving Murphy when Mary is watching him and she will be doing some overnight stays in October! Mary has been wonderful. She is very responsive and thorough. Highly recommend!”
