House Sitting Monterey

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.

“We are so grateful for Mallory. My 10 year old cockerspaniel gets separation anxiety and loved having Mallory's company. Mallory is patient, understanding and thorough. We already have her booked for a week long trip coming up. It's comforting knowing that my fur baby will be loved and cared for while we are away. 🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟”

“Sara did a great job watching our dog, cat, fish and house while we were gone for 11 days. They sent regular photos/updates, were very communicative, and the house was clean and cared for when we got home. Our spicy cat even warmed up to them eventually! It was a great comfort to know that our pup was getting his walks and was able to stick to his regular routine while we were away. We will defiantly use Sara again.”

“Claire was absolutely amazing! This was genuinely the first time we’ve had a pet sitter that all of our dogs truly loved and felt completely comfortable with. She took care of all four of our dogs plus our cat, which is definitely a lot, and she handled everything perfectly. We felt completely at ease knowing they were with her, and it was so obvious how much they loved having her there. We are so grateful we found Claire and would 100% trust her with our pets again. I seriously cannot recommend her enough!”

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 bring more than 31 years of hands-on experience caring for, rehabilitating, and living with dogs, including rescues with trauma, anxiety, digestive issues, behavioral challenges, and special needs. I hold a Master's degree in Applied Behavioral Science and have training in dog-assisted therapy, providing a deep understanding of both human and canine behavior, communication, trust-building, and emotional well-being. Every dog receives individualized attention tailored to their personality, routine, and unique needs. Through positive reinforcement, consistency, and thoughtful observation, I help dogs feel secure, relaxed, and supported. Whether your dog is energetic, anxious, shy, highly social, recovering from a difficult past, or simply accustomed to a specific routine, I adapt my approach to ensure they remain comfortable and confident. I also have experience with high-energy breeds, blind dogs and dogs requiring specialized diets or care plans. As a 5-mile daily hiker, I can provide long walks, multiple daily outings, and hikes of up to two hours. Clear communication is a priority. You'll receive regular updates and photos, so you know your pet is happy, safe, and receiving exceptional attention. I can also coordinate with veterinarians, groomers, and household service providers when needed, helping ensure continuity of care and smooth household operations. I bring 34 years of homeownership experience and eight years of remodeling experience, including the complete renovation of my lake house. This background has developed a strong awareness of home maintenance, safety, proactive problem-solving, and responsible property stewardship. As a volunteer member of a Fire Department Critical Response Team and Workforce Team, I am trained to recognize potential concerns early and respond appropriately. My attention to detail, reliability, and preventative mindset help safeguard your pets and property. I lead a quiet, responsible lifestyle and spend much of my time at home, allowing me to provide a consistent presence, attentive pet care, and regular property monitoring. Services Include: • Daily and overnight presence • Security and property checks • Mail and package collection • Plant care • Garbage and recycling management • Oversight and coordination of household and pet-care needs • Communication and coordination with service providers when needed • Monitoring of home systems and potential maintenance concerns • Careful stewardship of your home I specialize in extended house-sitting and pet-care assignments, accepting bookings of 30 to 130 days during the winter season. Clients choose me for my advanced behavioral expertise, decades of rescue and rehabilitation experience, exceptional communication, attentive home stewardship, and concierge-level service. Whether caring for a cherished companion, coordinating household needs, or maintaining a watchful presence over your property, my goal is to provide complete peace of mind, knowing both your pets and your home are in capable, caring hands. My day begins with a loving good-morning rub followed by a potty break, feeding, and exercise. Throughout the day, I incorporate walks, play, enrichment activities, affection, and regular outdoor breaks while maintaining your pet's normal routine. I enjoy ending each day with the attention most dogs love, whether that's a belly rub, cuddle time, or simply quiet companionship. I closely monitor behavior, energy levels, appetite, mobility, and daily habits so I can quickly recognize changes and respond appropriately. My flexible schedule allows me to prioritize the needs of your pet while maintaining a dependable, consistent presence. On a daily basis I maintain the cleanliness of pet-related areas, including food and water stations, entryways, and frequently used spaces. When a home has a pet door, I ensure the yard remains clean through daily waste removal. My goal is to provide an enriching environment where your pet feels secure, comfortable, and loved throughout your stay away from home. I provide a reliable daily and overnight presence, along with regular property walk-throughs. During severe weather, I perform additional inspections to identify potential concerns early and take appropriate preventative measures when possible. I maintain a calm, quiet environment that allows me to remain highly attuned to both your pet's well-being and any household conditions that may require attention. I am equally attentive to conditions on and around the property that could affect your home's safety and security. For example, during a recent house sit, I proactively cleared leaves and debris from nearby storm drains before heavy rain to help reduce the risk of localized flooding. Years of property stewardship have strengthened my ability to recognize developing issues and address them before they become larger concerns. Clients frequently share that they experience a genuine sense of peace and ease while away, knowing their pets and home are being cared for with exceptional attention, responsibility, and respect. They appreciate the strong bonds I develop with their pets and the clean, thoughtfully cared for home they come back to. Upon request, I can stock a reasonable number of essential grocery items prior to your return, helping ensure a comfortable and seamless homecoming.
