Pet Sitting Monterey

About: Easy going and adaptable dog walker with experience! Animal lover and grad student wanting to work on the side! Looking forward to meeting you and your pets! I am currently a full time graduate student which consists of a pretty busy schedule during the week but leaves the weekends very open. Also, on breaks, usually consisting of 4-6 weeks at a time, my schedule is wide open to accommodate a variety of dog walking needs. I have a fenced backyard with a moderate amount of space to run around. When dog sitting or walking, I always try to be aware and alert during social situations and pay attention to the needs of your dog while making sure they can get their energy out!

“Elle was absolutely amazing to work with! She was super communicative and easy to reach, and I felt really comfortable knowing my cat was in great hands. I would highly recommend her for any of your pet sitting needs and would absolutely book with her again! 🤩”

About: I have been around dogs and cats my whole life. I grew up with an Australian Shepard mix, two Dalmatians, and two cats. I understand how mischievous they can be; as well as how amazing and loving they are. I have no issues with younger energetic dogs or slower elderly dogs. I love them all the same. I currently am taking a leave of absence from CSUMB. I have plenty of time to hangout with your dogs! I believe socialization is important for dogs especially, and Im more than glad to be there. I live in an apartment building so having dogs stay over is very difficult. However, my place is safe for dogs and has space for them to be a little goofy. I love dogs and whether it's cuddling up or playing fetch, Im there!

“Jeanette goes above and beyond with her care! She tailors her services to the individual pet and makes them feel at home while you’re away. So grateful to have her care!”

About: Hi! My name is Kaitlyn, and I’m a dependable, caring pet sitter who truly loves animals. I grew up with dogs and have experience caring for both dogs and cats.

I treat every home with respect and will leave it exactly as I found it. Whether you need house sitting, drop-in visits, or dog walks, you can count on me to provide reliable care and regular photo updates so you can have peace of mind while you’re away.

About: As a pet owner myself, I know how important it is to find someone you can trust with your furry family member. I have experience with dogs of all sizes, from my teacup Pomeranian to my German Shepherd, as well as caring for puppies, senior pets, and cats. I’m attentive to each pet’s individual needs, whether that means playtime and exercise, sticking to a routine, or providing extra patience and comfort. My goal is always to make pets feel safe, loved, and at home while their owners are away. Im currently working part time remote, so I have time to be with your pup! From spending time at the house, walks, park time and play time. I’m available during the week and weekends I have a box of toys and brain stimulating toys, I take my dogs to the park to keep them moving and social. I have a friendly social dog that you’re baby can be with or I easily crate your If needed.

About: I’m the mom to a cat named Zeppelin, a dog named Stevie and a horse named Cece. I successfully trained both Stevie and Zeppelin (yes you can train a cat!) myself and have dabbled in equine training as well. Being the guardian of a nervous, reactive pup, I pride myself on understanding animal behavior and dog body language. After bringing Stevie home, I was quickly thrown into the world of dog training and behavior modification out of necessity and I have a special place in my heart for nervous pups. I've even started training other people's dogs on the side! After training my own dog, I fell in love with the process and couldn't put it down! I’ve also worked in a veterinary office and feel confident in my abilities to keep your animals safe and know how to handle emergencies. I’m a lab assistant for an environmental toxicology lab and train dogs on the side. I am available for drop ins and walks in the late afternoon and evening most days as well as any time on Sunday’s. At this time I am not available for boarding or overnight stays. I’ll treat your pets like I treat my own, all of mine are rescues that took time, patience and trust to get to where we are now. I understand that having a new person around might be scary for your pet at first but I look forward to building a relationship with them so we all feel safe and comfortable. Having a nervous, reactive dog and a nervous cat has taught me how to better understand dog and cat body language and to go at their own pace.

About: Longtime, trusted petsitter for neighbors and friends, with extensive volunteer experience including lead dog walker at a local shelter and rescue transporter. I’ve cared for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and temperaments, and genuinely love building connections with each pet. Available for walks, overnight care, and drop-ins. I look forward to meeting you and your pet! I currently work full-time during the week but have evening availability on Thursdays and Fridays, with open availability on weekends. I can accommodate drop-in visits during weekday lunch hours in the Oldtown/Downtown Monterey area. Please message me with any questions about availability or scheduling. I love taking dogs for neighborhood walks with plenty of time for sniffing, playing with their favorite toys, giving lots of affection and belly rubs, and simply keeping them company while you’re away. I’m happy to follow any special instructions, routines, or care requirements.

“Nicole checked in on my three elderly dogs. She took great care of them while I was out and made sure Tally got her afternoon medication. During the visit she sent updates and photos, and asked clarifying questions since this was the first visit. Nicole also left the house in perfect condition and made sure the house was locked up when she left. I look forward to having her take care of my dogs again.”

About: Always had a love of animals cats and dogs. Pets are all lovable in their own fun and unique ways. I would one, guarantee your pet friends are looked after with the most care and attention and two keep, in close contact with you providing updates and photos throughout 🐕‍🦺🐈‍⬛🐾 On the weekends I’m the most flexible both during the day and night. Weekdays I’d be available 4pm and after for walks, drop ins or stays. I can’t provide lodging at the moment but regarding drop in or stays I’d treat anyone and anyone’s home as I would friends and family.

“Claudia was awesome to work with and great with our pups! A neighbor was going to watch them, but had to cancel at the last minute...Claudia (whom we’ve used before and loved) was right there for us and eager to help! Our golden retrievers absolutely adore her, and I think the feeling is mutual! She does a wonderful job and sends pics and updates each time she stops in to ease our minds while we’re away! We would recommend her services to anyone!”
