Pet care experience

Tell your animals I say hi!

Here's what makes my pet sitting services a cut above the rest: - I have thirty years of experience as a pet parent, and pet sitter for family and friends. - I work with one family at a time for each service. So for example, your dog will be the only dog for a walk, or at my house for doggy day care. - We live within a mile of the Monterey Bay Aquarium! Drop your dog off with us and enjoy your visit. - I am retired! I m available throughout the week for walking, doggy day care, or drop-in visits. - I am a three time Guide Dog Puppy Raiser with Guide Dogs for the Blind. That means I have extensive training and experience with playful, positive reinforcement and hundreds of hours of playing with dogs. - No matter what breed or background I probably have some experience. From labs, goldens and retired racing greyhounds to chiweenies, terriers and chihuahuas, I love them all. -I also have extensive experience with horses and chickens, if you happen to have a few of them, too! I would love to get to know your four-legged family members and their unique personalities.

Safety, trust & environment

For families needing day care I provide care in my home to one dog at a time. I have a fully fenced yard and calm enviornment best for senior or middle-aged dogs. My dog is nine and spends most of the day napping with a few breaks for outside play with a ball or toys and a walk morning and evening. If that sounds like your dog, we'd love to meet you for day care. For families needing drop-in visits to care for their animals in their home I will spend at least 40 minutes per visit to tend to your animals' needs including a walk, if you wish. I can also pick up mail, care for plants, or other needs you have while out of town. All ages and species! For families needing dog walking only I offer a thirty minute walk in your neighborhood following your instructions as to what works best. We'll take a good sniff around and then head home. I have extensive experience teaching puppies to walk on leash. All ages welcome! For care in your home I provide trustworthy care of your home and pets. I am available to stay in your home full-time and care for all types of animals. I will take dogs on at least two walks a day and keep up training for younger dogs. I can also communicate with any home employees and keep the house in running order. You can travel worry-free knowing that your home and animals are safe and the dogs are having a great time. Additional references are available upon request.

Elizabeth was great! This was our first time using Rover and it was a great experience! She provided updates and was gracious with our two girls! Definitely would recommend if you are in Monterey with your pups and want to visit the aquarium!

Over all the day cares I’ve been to, my dog felt most comfortable here. Very understanding, patient, welcoming, and respectful day care. My dog loved her :)

Please let me know any problem behaviors or needs that your dog has (chewing while at home alone, etc.) and any reactive tendencies you've noticed in your dog. This can help me to plan our outings and time at home appropriately. Also, it is always helpful to know what games and activities your pets enjoy so I can help them feel comfortable as quickly as possible.
Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.

These prices are for 1 dog, including a booking fee of 11%.
