“Citlali was so friendly and responsive and took great care of our pup! Thank you for being available last minute. Would highly recommend for day care drop off!”


“Denise was awesome and Luna seemed to have absolutely the best time! She was happy and a little tired after her day and I loved how Denise kept in touch and sent such cute photos.”


“Wanessa was wonderful. Our Separation Anxiety dogs were right at home with Wanessa, tails wagging when we dropped them off and tails wagging when we picked them up.”


“Elizabeth is awesome! She was kind, clearly took the time to get to know my little guy, and when we requested flexibility for pick up and drop off (as we were coming in from out of town and weren't sure how long we'd be in a no-dog area) she agreed that it was fine and was ready for us when we arrived. We appreciated her thoughtfulness and professionalism and will definitely book her for future trips to the area!”


“We had a great experience with Christina. We got plenty of pictures of our dog enjoying our stay with Christina. Christina was able to accommodate our last minute request for "Doggie Day Care" so that we could go to the Monterey Bay Aquarium. We hope to use Christina on future visits.”


“Oh my gosh Emily is the best!! She is so sweet! This is my first time ever using any kind of home day care service and I just happened to get the best!! I was able to feel confident and relax the entire time my dog was with Emily. I can’t say enough about my experience with Emily - she is truly a dog lover and cares about your dog! I would recommend her to anyone!”

I have to say that Carol made me at ease when we spoke when she picked him up and her generous videos what my dog was doing, the walks etc. no doubt, Carol is on my address book of a must to take care of my dog. Love it! Thank you Carol”


About: For over 10 years I ran a successful dog walking and pet sitting business in San Francisco. I specialize in smaller dogs (0-20lbs) and have the sweetest little girl of my own adopted from Peace of Mind Dog Rescue in Pacific Grove. My schedule is very flexible as I am home regularly during the day working my other job as a remote web developer. In other words, your pup will have around the clock supervision from very attentive playmates, including my two kids who just love animals and have their fair share of experience fostering through Peace of Mind. My home is very safe and clean with a fully enclosed backyard directly across from Paraiso Park in Monterey providing plenty of opportunities to play at the park. We look forward to spending lots of quality time with your pup!

“Jesse is very friendly. He guided us into his home with clear instructions. He took Sunny for a long walk with beautiful scenery along the road to release his energy. He took care of him very well by giving treats, cleaning him up after walk and settling him down in a very nice area of the home. Thank you for taking good care of my dog and I was able to enjoy visiting some places that are not dog friendly.”

About: I have a lifelong love for animals and am really missing having pets around! I’ve grown up with all sorts of dog breeds ranging from Pit Bulls to Havanese and feel comfortable around them all. I’ve also opened my home to foster dogs, embracing the joys and challenges that come with caring for both older dogs and newborn puppies. My commitment to the well-being of these animals extends beyond routine care to creating a warm and loving environment that caters to their individual needs. I have a fully remote job so I am at my house most of the day with lots of spare time for walks and cuddles. I have a fully fenced yard and live in a great very walkable neighborhood. I have space in my house for a crate and any other supplies needed to make your pet feel comfortable. I live with my boyfriend who is also a huge animal lover so rest assured your pet will get plenty of love and attention! Please note we do have stairs to get up to our unit with a large deck that gets lots of sun!


“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!”

Dilan M.
“Dilan is a good person. They don't come too often these days. He grew up in a happy family who took him on many trips overseas, so he learned about other countries and their peoples and he has always made friends with people he has met from other places in the world. When he lived in San Francisco, he set up and owned a dog walking group that was very successful. Then he married and they eventually ended up in the beautiful area of Monterey. His sister has always been interested in dogs and horses and volunteered at the local Oakland dog adoption agency. She has always had adopted dogs and taught us all about this valuable work and Dilan has worked with her and then became a dog adopter too. Dilan will be a good and responsible dog minder and I highly recommend him! I am his mother.”
