I am currently in the process of becoming a CO and would be delighted to take care of your pups part time as i love animals with a passion. I have a wide back yard where i let my dogs run around as well as taking them out for walks. I like to give them at least a couple hours a day of exercise to keep them healthy. As well as treats for good behavior.
“This was the first time I scheduled Becky to look out after our dog and I was very pleased with how attentive she was to making sure my dog was comfortable and she kept me in the loop with how thing were going. Strongly recommend to others.”

“Oscar is terrific and very reliable! I have three Labradors and he handles them all beautifully. I really appreciate the notifications when he arrives and photos of the dogs having fun. One is still in training and Oscar maintains my standards and requirements. What a load off my mind to have him!”

About: Ive been an animal lover since I was little, Ive had all types of animals growing up and absolutely love caring for all pets. My roommates travel often and I take care of their senior dog Riley, he is deaf and blind so he needs a lot of extra TLC. I am local to south salinas, I have my own business and make my own schedule. I have my office 3 mins away from home so have the flexibility. Commutation is the most important thing for me, making sure you have updates about your pet and making sure they feel safe and protected weather it’s on a walk or home sitting.

“Mary Jane is phenomenal!! I never have to worry about my dog Because I know he’s in good hands. She updates you she communicates and I get so many pictures of my baby boy!! She is the best!”

About: I’ve have experience caring for both cats and dogs of all ages and sizes. I currently have two 6 year old cats in my home, that I raised from kittens. Before them, I had a cat for 16 years and a beagle for nine years. As a child, we had multiple dogs and cats and there has been very little time I’ve spent in my life without a pet of some sort. I am open and flexible all days of the week as this is my only source of income. Same day appointments are also an option most days. I currently live in an apartment with my partner. Having a partner in my own home to be with our pets helps me to be more physically and mentally available for my clients, especially for house sitting jobs that may be long term.

About: Hi! I’m a veterinary professional with 6.5 years of experience in animal medicine, including 2 years in emergency and specialty care. Animals are my life and my career — I genuinely love what I do. Whether your pet needs medication administered, has special medical needs, or just needs lots of love while you’re away, I’ve got them covered. I’m communicative, reliable, and will keep you updated every step of the way so you can enjoy your time away with total peace of mind. I’m regularly available Saturday through Monday each week, making me a great option for weekend getaways, short trips, and Monday holiday travel. I work in veterinary emergency medicine during the week so my schedule is consistent and reliable — when I’m available for your pet, they have my full attention. Please note that I occasionally pick up Saturday shifts at the hospital, so I recommend reaching out a week or two in advance for weekend bookings so I can confirm my availability. I always communicate promptly and will never leave you without plenty of notice. When I’m in your home, my priority is making sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and as close to their normal routine as possible. I always follow your instructions carefully — feeding schedules, medication routines, exercise needs, behavioral quirks — nothing gets overlooked. I’ve spent 6.5 years in veterinary medicine learning that every animal is an individual, and I bring that same attentive, personalized approach to every visit and stay. During drop-in visits I make sure your pet is fed, watered, exercised, and given plenty of genuine attention — not just a quick check in and out. During house sitting stays I treat your home with the utmost respect and your pet as if they were my own patient. I maintain their routine as closely as possible so they experience minimal stress in your absence. As an emergency and specialty veterinary professional I’m also trained to recognize early warning signs of illness or distress that most pet sitters wouldn’t notice — changes in breathing, appetite, behavior, mobility, or energy levels. If anything seems off I will contact you immediately and if necessary can coordinate directly with your veterinarian given my medical background. I send photo and video updates throughout every visit and stay so you always know exactly how your pet is doing. I know how hard it is to leave your animal behind — my goal is to make that as easy as possible for both of you.
