House Sitting in Elkhorn

“This is second time, we have use Nicole. We think she is amazing and does a great job!!”

“Melissa did an excellent job house sitting & taking care of our senior dog Fozzy. He can be particular and we came home to a happy healthy dog after a trip. She sent us many pictures of Fozzy having a great time, and he was so comfortable with her he ate well while we were gone, which is usually a challenge. We will definitely be booking Melissa again the next time we travel!”

About: I grew up surrounded by animals including dogs, cats, horses, and chickens which taught me how to care for every animal with patience and love from an early age. I am calm, dependable, and connect naturally with pets, even the more shy ones. I have experience caring for both energetic puppies as well as senior pets, including giving medications and following special routines which I do for my own senior dogs. I always treat every animal like family and make sure they feel cared for, happy, and safe while you are away. Pet care has always been a part of my daily routine, and I love spending time playing with, walking, and caring for pets. I am a recent college graduate currently searching for work which means I have plenty of time to devote to caring for your pets. I can provide care morning, afternoons, and evenings, and will happily adjust to your pet's needs and routine. I care for pets in their own home with much love and attention, following all instructions and routines closely in order to keep them at ease in the surroundings they know best. I prioritize their safety, happiness, and comfort while also treating your space and belongings with respect. Having cared for animals my whole life, I make sure every pet feels secure, loved, and well cared for while you are away so that they feel at ease.

“We hate to leave our babies but feel confident that they are always in the BEST care! We get frequent pics so get to see them everyday we are gone and get updates on them all.”

About: I’ve taken care of my neighbors’ dogs for years, helping with walks, feeding, playtime, and basic care. I also have a Yorkie of my own, so I truly understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet. I’ve dog sat for friends with both big and small dogs, as well as cats, and I always make sure each pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved. What sets me apart is my patience, reliability, and my genuine enjoyment of spending time with animals, especially on long walks where dogs get to explore, exercise, and have fun. I currently attend community college four mornings a week, which means I’m free most of the day for pet care. This gives me plenty of time for walks, drop-in visits, playtime, and extended care. I’m flexible, reliable, and happy to work around your pet’s routine to make sure they get the attention they deserve. When caring for pets in my home or a client’s home, I always focus on making them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I follow each pet’s routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and rest. I make sure dogs get plenty of exercise through walks and outdoor time, and I give lots of attention, affection, and positive reinforcement. For cats, I provide calm care, feeding, litter maintenance, and gentle interaction at their comfort level. I also keep owners updated with messages and photos so they always know how their pet is doing.

About: Hi y’all! I’m a local and have slowly been building a clientele, so I thought to put a profile to easily share with them my availability. I honestly do this for fun! I have years of expertise taking care of all sorts of animals. I am patient and a good listener with your fur babies. In addition, I am detailed when it comes to instructions from the owners on what the pet needs and their behaviors. No stone goes unturned. Because I do this for fun, the money is the last thing on my mind. So, if you’re on a tight budget, I hope my low rates help you out. If you still need to arrange something that fits your budget, please contact me! I am happy to help. I hope to be part of your fur baby’s life! I’m currently working from home, so I’m available for full pet care unless it’s days I travel out of town for work, which will be posted on the calendar. However, if you need pet care and you are in a rush/in an emergency, feel free to reach out and I am always happy to accommodate when possible. I make sure that when taking care of pets in a clients home that everything is left spick and span— I’ll sometimes do light cleaning so that owners come home from their long trip to a sparkling home that smells fresh and clean. When taking care of pets in my home, it is the same way. I will always dedicate plenty of time to your fur babies and they will be with me wherever I go.

“Zoe was amazing ! Ellie loved and adored her and was clearly well looked after for the two days we were away. Zoe kept us updated throughout her stay and were so grateful to have found an awesome dog sitter :)”

“Elle is a fabulous dog sitter! She watched my two doggos for about a week. Her response time is prompt and she frequently provided updates. Although my dogs generally are well behaved they do come with some instructions and she handled these well. She stayed at our house and left it very clean and tidy. 100% will be asking her to watch them in the future!”

Jazmine A.

“Kathy was awesome! She kept us well-informed and our incorrigible canine Bree happy and healthy. Kathy went above and beyond and the house was well-kept and well-maintained as well…”

About: I have over six years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all sizes and energy levels. I provide safe walks, feeding, basic bathing, playtime, and loving attention while always prioritizing your pet’s comfort, safety, and happiness. I currently work part-time, which gives me flexible availability to provide attentive care, walks, and companionship. I am available weekdays after 2pm and weekends for boarding, drop-ins, and extended walks. I provide a clean, calm, and safe environment at all times, following each pet’s routine and care instructions carefully. I supervise play, secure leashes on walks, keep doors locked, and send regular photo updates for peace of mind.

About: Starting in high school I worked for an adoption center and have worked with animals ever since. From dogsitting, cat sitting, volunteering at the animal shelter, and more, I’ve always enjoyed being involved with animals. My main job is an online fitness coach and so I can work remotely due to that. For that reason I’m able to work with just about any schedule your animal may have. I’ve worked with elder dogs as well as puppies to help them maintain their usual routine. I’m also practiced in giving eye drops, medication, and insulin shots through my other pet sitting jobs I’ve done in the past. For me the most important thing is not breaking routine. I’m a creature of habit myself so I appreciate descriptive texts or notes that way I can help keep your animal in the same pattern as they would be if you were home.

About: I’ve been walking and caring for dogs and pets since I was 12, which has given me years of hands-on experience with animals of all personalities and energy levels. I’m also vet tech certified, so I have training in animal health and understand how to monitor for signs of stress, illness, or discomfort. This allows me to provide not just loving care, but attentive and knowledgeable care as well. I grew up around animals and am extremely comfortable working with them, including young, energetic pets and senior animals who may need extra patience and gentle handling. I care deeply about making sure every pet feels safe, happy, and well cared for while their owner is away. I’m currently a college student with a flexible schedule, so pet care fits easily into my daily routine. I’m available after 12pm Monday–Thursday and all day Friday through Sunday for pet sitting, dog walking, and overnights. I’m happy to work around your pet’s specific schedule to make sure they get the attention and care they need. Safety and communication are my top priorities when caring for pets. I always follow the owner’s instructions carefully to keep their routine consistent and make sure they feel comfortable in their home environment. In a client’s home, I respect the space, keep it clean, and ensure pets are supervised, secure, and never put in unsafe situations.

“I can’t say enough good things about Naomi and am so grateful to her. I needed someone to stay with my dog the two days after she had bladder surgery. I thought it would entail just keeping an eye on her but my dog’s recovery ended up included relieving herself every few minutes and Naomi took great care of her with no complaints, was super attentive to her needs, and kept me updated. Plus I could tell my dog was comfortable with her, which was important when she was feeling so poorly. Thank you Naomi!”

About: Hi! My name is Sherlynn, and I’m a Salinas local with over 8 years of hands-on experience caring for animals of all types. I’ve grown up around pets and have cared for dogs, cats, birds, and even a bunny. I raised my pit bull mix from puppyhood into adulthood, and I currently care for a German Shepherd who I’ve had for over four years. I’m experienced with dogs of different sizes, temperaments, and energy levels — from calm companions to more active, strong breeds. I enjoy taking pets on safe, enriching walks at local parks and beaches, and I always tailor care to each pet’s needs and routine. Safety and communication are my top priorities. I’m confident handling unexpected situations calmly and responsibly, and I make sure pets feel comfortable, secure, and loved while in my care. I’m open to working with all breeds and always treat every pet as if they were my own. Your pet’s happiness, safety, and well-being will always come first. Feel free to reach out with any questions — I’d love to meet you and your pet! I am a Autism Behavior Technician for Salinas District in Salinas, M-F. My schedule is pretty flexible as I also dont work weekends so if needed I can sit. I do live in house that has a fenced yard. I live less than 1 minute away from a dog park which is so convenient. My neighborhood is calm.

“Ainsley was an awesome house sitter! She had great communication throughout, and we came home to a clean and tidy house. Most importantly, she took excellent care of our pets. She even took our dog on a special trip to the beach (with our permission), and our cats got plenty of cuddles. Everyone was happy and relaxed when we returned. We would love to have Ainsley back anytime!”

“Kivi was amazing with my sweet dog Nala. This was my first time asking Kivi to house sit, and she truly went above and beyond. Not only did she take Nala on great walks at the beach, but she hung out with her in her garden, sent me lots of pictures, and did all the things that Nala loves. I’m always a little nervous leaving my baby behind, but for a second I wondered if she was having more fun with me being away haha. I can tell Kivi is a genuine animal-loved, and she had a very kind and trustworthy nature. What more can you ask out of a house sitting experience?”

“Last night was the third time Ashton watched/walked our great dane. Tiny, our 160 lb dane, loves Ashton. And Ashton is equally popular with our cats. Ashton shows up on time and washes whatever dishes he uses, both signs of how responsible he is. He sends us pics of our furry family and keeps us informed. We'll use him again.”

Michael M.

“Arelna was amazing. She was super friendly and very easy going. She provided detailed updates. Would highly recommend her.”

About: I love animals and am very active—perfect for active dogs or large breeds. I worked at a dog boarding facility on weekends in high school and have pet-sat several local animals, including two senior dogs. I’m very outdoorsy and would love to take your pet with me on walks or to the beach. I’ve also worked with farm animals and have 4 years of care experience with chickens, cats, and livestock. I work a 9-5 and am active after work and on weekends! I can house-sit over the weekends and walk and care for pets in mornings and evenings. My house isn’t open to pets, so I’d love to care for your animals in the place where they’re most comfortable (and I’ll keep an eye on your home if you need as well). I like to play and take pets outside (when I can), but have no problem staying inside and relaxing with a chill pet.
