“Susan L. is awesome. There is so much open space for our dog Bailey to run off the leash and interact with other well behaved dogs. Susan offered us some useful training tips and a full report on Bailey's behavior. I feel like Bailey enjoyed her time with Susan. My wife and I will definitely be bringing Bailey back when the need arises. I highly recommend Susan L.”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was a child, having had 3 dogs growing up, and now have my own dog, a Mini Schnauzer. I believe in positive training and care, letting our best furry friends live their best lives while with us, so there will be lots of naps, play and even beach time (with your permission of course!) I work from home with my own consultancy business so I have a lot of flexible time to care for your pet. I love spending time with animals and incorporate that with my daily activities, I can give them several short walks and play, and also plenty of naps and rest. I have a small side yard and have access to a small dog park nearby our community. I have one friendly dog but can separate him if needed, ie your pet can be downstairs and my dog can be upstairs. If you prefer your dog to be crated, I can do that as well.

About: I've been surrounded by dogs my whole life, and caring for them has always come naturally to me. I recently raised my own puppy from 8 weeks old, so I’m very familiar with the time, patience, and energy it takes to train and care for young dogs. I also have experience doing pet check-ins and babysitting for families back in Texas, which helped me build strong, dependable habits when it comes to caring for others’ pets and homes. I’ve just graduated from college and recently moved to Monterey, which means I have a flexible schedule and plenty of time to dedicate to your pet's needs. Whether it’s giving a puppy some structure, keeping your dog company during the day, or simply making sure everything’s okay while you’re away—I’m here to help, with genuine care and attention Pet care is a natural part of my daily life. Since I have my own young dog, I’m already in a consistent routine that includes walks, playtime, feeding, and training. My flexible schedule allows me to easily fit in pet sitting, drop-ins, or extended stays throughout the week. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or yours, their safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I take time to understand each pet’s routine, personality, and any special needs they may have—so they feel secure and at ease while you're away. I’m attentive to details like feeding schedules, medication instructions, and favorite toys or habits, and I always make sure pets are in a clean, calm, and stress-free environment. In your home, I respect your space as if it were my own and follow all guidelines you leave for your pet’s care. I know how important it is to feel confident when someone else is looking after your furry family member, so I provide regular updates, photos, and check-ins to keep you connected. At my place, pets have a safe, cozy space and are never left unsupervised.

“So friendly and helpful with an amazing family that kept my pups happy! Definitely going back to her on my next visit back !”

About: I live in a very dog friendly community. Across the street from my house is a big grass area for the dogs to play. Down the street is a dog park and a baseball field to play fetch and for the dogs to have time to just be dogs. Because I live so close to old Fort Ord there are numerous trails within walking distance from my house to take the pups on an adventure. During the week I work at a barn where I get to bring the dogs to work with me, so your pet would be with me 24/7. My dogs are extremely friendly and I’ve fostered dogs in the past. After work I usually take my dogs to the beach or on a long walk. They get fed am and pm and will be flexible to your dogs needs. They are more than welcome to sleep on the bed with me or use one of the two massive dog beds I have. Let’s not forget about the abundance of dog toys I have to keep everyone happy!!! I work at a barn so the dogs come to work with me. While working, they get free range of the office. Throughout the day I take them out numerous times for potty brakes. After work we go on a long walk or play ball down the street from from my house in the field. I have two small backyards the dogs have full access to. My larger pup doesn’t like to use the yards to go potty so I take him on routine walks to do his business. Again, I do work, but the pups always come with me so they are never left home alone.

“Mike & Lynne are Salinas’ best kept secret! They are every dog owner’s dream dog watchers! They are always home, they love going on walks and are super sweet! They have a way of making us and our dog Zuzu feel like family. My husband and I enjoyed talking with them and Zuzu had a great time climbing over Mike, who laid on the grass to play with her. They were very communicative with us before and during Zuzu’s stay. I would def recommend them and we will be taking Zuzu back!”

“Jacqueline watched our pup for a few hours while we passed through town so we could visit the aquarium. Zulie was in high spirits when we picked her up and slept the whole way home. We are very appreciative of Jacqueline's accommodation on short notice.”

“I highly recommend Maria. She and her husband are such great sitters, Caramello had a good time with their lovely dogs, she was phenomenal in keeping me updated on Caramello. She’s very responsive and friendly.”

Fatima A.

“Jawharrah has exceeded our expectations! Not only was she so kind to accept our short notice request, but she went above and beyond as a pet sitter. She kept an open line of communication and shared many pictures throughout the day. Seriously couldn’t have asked for a better sitter who showed so much care for our pup. Thank you again for everything.”

About: I've taken care of dogs since 2020, from small to big. I can say that I am very reliable and responsible when it comes to dogs as I see them as children. I have owned a Rottweiler, Bitbulls, Chihuahua, and a Maltese. I can take any dog in as long as they aren't too aggressive. I can handle anxious dogs as I have one myself I have learned to become more soft and not have people or other dogs stimulate them too much. I'm working part-time and only work on weekends so I should have time to take care of dogs almost any day. I will be available every day of the week. I am flexible with time so you can message me about that and we can sort that out together. I will not be able to take in pets at my home since I do have a small dog and he stays in my room, (he's a very anxious dog so I wouldn't be able to have pets around him.) As for taking care of pets in your home give me the instructions and I can follow them accordingly. I'm fine with having to give the dogs baths myself or taking them on walks or just playing with them!

“Jacqueline was so good with my babies! She was able to take a last-minute request when I had to go out of town unexpectedly. She was communicative and reassuring, and I really appreciated the pictures and videos that were sent to me while I was away. I would 100% recommend her as a sitter.”

Hilary L.

“Good communication. Would book again!”

About: If you board with me, your pet won’t have a boring day. I will give my full undivided attention, we will go for a walk or two and there will be treats. I’ll make sure to keep you updated with beautiful photos as well :) I’m primarily available on the weekends but am quite flexible. Please reach out if you have any questions. I can’t wait to hear from you :) I live in an apartment but will make sure we spend time outdoors. I have a huge warm dog kennel that your pet can use :)

About: Most of my life I grew up caring for animals. I love animals and I treat them with great care. I volunteered at a veterinarian Hospital for two years. I walk dogs for Hitchcock Road in Salinas and also volunteer at the SPCA! I have worked with a variety of types of animals with different temperaments. I am excited to help your furry family member any way that I can! Weekends are open! I can also walk pets after 6pm or early in the mornings at 8 am. Let me know the date and I can certainly make adjustments! I will play with your pet, make sure your pet is doing great. Show the love a surrogate mother would show to a family member. And I will take them on long walks! For cats I would make sure they get plenty of toys to play with and have a relaxing environment.
