House Sitting in Salinas

“I’m so pleased with the care that Carrie Hendry give our dog Penny! Carrie first of all is a “dog person” and always attends to details regarding Penny’s needs and preferences! Penny adores Carrie and feels comfortable in her care! Carrie’s ability to tend to pups AND their people is extraordinary. So lucky to have found her and would whole heartedly recommend her services for all kinds of dogs!”

“I recommend Amaya very much she is wonderful caring , reliable and trustworthy. I will defiantly use her service again my dogs love her and she is very sweet and knowledgeable. Thank you again for helping us you made a difference in my travel journey.”

“Spencer is an amazing young man. From our fist meeting we knew he was the one. He was punctual, polite, cheerful, and our dogs loved him. After two meetings and many texts we booked him. This was the best vacation I have ever had. I felt so secure my dogs were being well cared for. When we arrived home, our dogs were pleased to see us but not desperate that we were home. I could tell Spencer was their buddy and they liked him a lot. Also our house was in better shape than when we left. We was respectful of all spaces, and did everything and more than we asked. I cannot say enough good about this young man. We will be booking him again.”

“Lisa was amazing with our dog Lucy! We needed a last minute sitter while on vacation and she came through and our dog had a wonderful time. Highly recommend Lisa!”

“Jawharrah is THE BEST! She’s been taking care of our senior, blind Chihuahua for a few years now, and we couldn’t be happier. She manages our dog’s complex medication regimen, feeding schedule, and various other needs with ease. She is kind and compassionate, has great judgment, and is super communicative—she doesn’t hesitate to ask if she has a question, and we love getting photo and video updates of our dog when we’re away. I am so grateful to Jawharrah. Traveling can be stressful, so it means the world to us to know that our dog and home are in such capable, caring hands.”

“David communicated very well and always checked in if anything was surprising. Our dog and our house were both left in good shape. We'd be happy to have David watch her again.”

About: I have worked and managed an adoption agency with both dogs and cats from the age of 10-18. I have fostered many animals and have 4 dogs of my own from huge to small. I have volunteered for many years at my local animal shelters and have been asked to return. My love for pets is above average. I have also worked at multiple pet stores to fully enjoy my love for animals! I am currently doing school online which leaves me a lot of free time in which I would love to be able to do something I love such as taking care of pets. I currently have a puppy so I know how much work goes into properly training them such as consistency and routine. I also have elderly dogs who need special attention. So no matter what needs your pets have I will treat them as my own.

“Laura was great at coming to our house why we were away to watch our cats. She cleaned up after they made messes, she sent pictures and updates. She even stayed a while so the cats weren’t alone all day. We use her often whenever we have to go out of town.”

“This was our first trip ever out of state and for longer than 24hrs. I was nervous about my dogs being with someone they didn't know, but summer suggested a meet and greet for herself and the dogs, and I'm so glad we did! When we finally left, summer kept great contact with us. She sent many photos of my dogs playing outside and inside throughout the entire weekend. She is extremely kind, polite, and very trustworthy!! 10/10 would/ and will recommend her to anyone who asks!”

About: I love dogs and have taken care of many different breeds for many years. When I'm dog-sitting, I treat them as if they were my own pets. When their "parents" are gone, it's important to make them feel secure. That's why I prefer to dog-sit in the pet's home. Also, I work in the medical field and know when a dog needs to see the vet. I am a semi-retired medical writer/editor and I work from home exclusively. This means that when I'm caring for your pet, I'm home with them every day all day. All I need to do my work is access to wi-fi. Also, I've had birds for more than 40 years, so if you have a bird in addition to your dog, you can trust me with its care. I mentioned earlier that I prefer to care for pets in their own home. It's less disruptive and helps them to feel secure. That's important to me.

About: 7+ years of animal care ( of my own and of others). Rescued and put into a loving home. Lots of Volunteering. Senior care. Assisted with pregnancy/newborn puppies and kittens. Very Patient and driven. Currently working part time and in school but have plenty of open time. (Mon/Wen open after 3pm) (Tue/Thur 11am-5pm and open again after 9pm) otherwise entirely open schedule! Huge backyard for dogs to play in included doggy door with kiddy pool and many toys. Open/automatic water bowl for them to get water on their own time. Treats and food locked away till designated time. Lots of blankets and beds laying around for nap time. I’m always with the dogs at all times if it’s in the kitchen while their snoozing on the floor or outside playing with them

“All I can say that you can trust your fur baby to Valery without any hesitation. Our 6 years old Samoyed Ponchik loved her very much. She always was on top of it to send us videos and photos while we were away. Spoiled our baby :))) with love and treats. We'll definitely will use her help in the future as well. Thank you for everything Valery.”

“You wouldn’t want any other person to be looking after your pup! Sophia is responsible and super affectionate towards all animals. She has taken care of my dog when I’ve been away for the past 4 years and has been the best! My dog is extremely energetic and does not fancy other dogs...Sophia has always been able to keep her calm and in control while minding her surroundings. My dog is always excited to see her! We love Sophia!”

About: I have a few years of experience in caring for animals such as dogs, cats, birds, fish, horses, and many more. I have taken care of some of my family's pets in the past. I was in charge of feeding, bathing, cleaning, and walking them until their owners arrived back home. The primary way that pet care fits into my daily routine is that I have pets of my own that I am responsible for taking care of. I have two dogs, that I have to feed, clean up after and walk daily. Here are a few ways I take care of my own pets: - I feed them in the morning when I wake up around six am - I play fetch with both of my dogs during the afternoon - Then I feed them dinner around six pm before I get ready to rest in my bed - If they need to be groomed I will put them in the tub

“Alora did a great job with Penny. She stayed at our place and it was clean and our pup seemed very happy and relaxed. Alora sweetly took our garbage out for us, as well. Will use her again! Thanks Alora!”

“Chris did a fantastic job sitting our dog. He’s a very caring and patient person. He was also very flexible when it came to adjusting his schedule. Our dog Daisy really liked him too :) Looking forward to booking him again.”

“Krystel was great! Our dog loved her and she sent updates and pictures while she stayed with him.”

“Eva was my pet sitter for years, she cared for my two dogs and two cats on numerous occasions. She is not only extremely responsible but also proactive. She always ensured my pets were well-fed, exercised and loved, all in a timely manner exactly how she had been directed to. She has always gone above and beyond, keeping me updated, addressing any concerns and she was never afraid to ask questions when needed. Eva's genuine care and love for my animals, her attention to detail and trustworthiness gave me complete peace of mind. I wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone seeking reliable and caring pet care.”

“Debbie is caring, knowledgeable, and patient. Of course, she cares about the animals, but she also cares about the owners. She demonstrates this in the time given, active listening, and concise explanations. She really knows her stuff! She truly appreciates Western and Eastern medicine, and she totally understands medical and homeopathic terms and procedures. If she doesn't know an answer, she'll research it for you because she's genuinely curious as well. She is a consummate professional, respectful, funny, and a pleasure to work with. I highly recommend her!”

“Christie has taken care of our 2 dogs and 2 cats several times. She is very responsible and loving with our fur babies. We highly recommend her to care for your pets”
