About: I grew up surrounded by animals including dogs, cats, horses, and chickens which taught me how to care for every animal with patience and love from an early age. I am calm, dependable, and connect naturally with pets, even the more shy ones. I have experience caring for both energetic puppies as well as senior pets, including giving medications and following special routines which I do for my own senior dogs. I always treat every animal like family and make sure they feel cared for, happy, and safe while you are away. Pet care has always been a part of my daily routine, and I love spending time playing with, walking, and caring for pets. I am a recent college graduate currently searching for work which means I have plenty of time to devote to caring for your pets. I can provide care morning, afternoons, and evenings, and will happily adjust to your pet's needs and routine. I care for pets in their own home with much love and attention, following all instructions and routines closely in order to keep them at ease in the surroundings they know best. I prioritize their safety, happiness, and comfort while also treating your space and belongings with respect. Having cared for animals my whole life, I make sure every pet feels secure, loved, and well cared for while you are away so that they feel at ease.

About: I’ve cared for animals for over 30 years and have loved them since I was 5, when I got my first cat. Since then, I’ve cared for both dogs and cats—puppies, seniors, and everything in between. I’m comfortable with all breeds and have plenty of informal pet-sitting experience through family and friends. As a remote professional, I’m home most of the day, so your pet will never feel alone. My environment is calm, playful, and full of cuddles (and walks!). I’m also comfortable administering medication and pride myself on being reliable, patient, and calm under pressure. I genuinely love being around animals—it brings me joy to care for them, walk them, and make sure they feel safe and loved while you’re away. Because I work remotely, I’m home most of the day, which makes pet care a natural part of my daily routine. I start my mornings with a walk or playtime, and I take regular breaks throughout the day to give pets attention, cuddles, and outdoor time. Evenings are usually calm and cozy — perfect for a relaxing stroll or some quiet time together. My flexible schedule means I can easily adapt to your pet’s needs, whether that’s frequent walks, meal routines, or medication schedules. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or yours, my goal is always the same — to make them feel safe, loved, and at ease. I follow each pet’s normal routine closely, including feeding times, walks, play, and rest, so their day feels familiar and stress-free. In my home, pets enjoy a calm, cozy space where they get plenty of cuddles, playtime, and outdoor walks. When I’m in a client’s home, I treat it with the same respect and care I would my own, keeping things tidy and peaceful while giving your pet lots of attention and affection. I also send regular updates and photos so you can relax knowing your furry family member is happy and cared for.

About: I treat your pet like my own! Conveniently located in the quaint town of San Juan Bautista, we have a sun filled back yard that is fenced and safe for your pet to run, play, and relax in. Our house is located within walking distance of multiple parks for exercising your pets. Pet care is my full time job. I modify my schedule to accommodate your pet care needs. I enjoy being outside and exercising in nature with your pet. I never leave your pet unattended, and your pet's safety is my top priority. I am careful to follow your special instruction on how to care for your pet, whether it is feeding, medication, or simply having fun.

“Excellent job, would recommend.”

About: With over 10 years of experience caring for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and ages, I treat every pup like family. I specialize in both puppy training and gentle senior care, giving each dog the personalized attention they need. Whether it’s sticking to special diets, administering medication, or keeping routines consistent, I go above and beyond to make dogs feel at home and owners feel at ease. Dogs are part of my everyday life — my schedule naturally revolves around walks, feeding times, play sessions, and quiet rest breaks. I make sure every pup gets a balance of exercise, affection, and downtime, so they stay happy, healthy, and relaxed while in my care. In my home, dogs enjoy a safe, clean, and cozy environment with supervised play, comfy resting areas, and plenty of love. I maintain their usual routines, offer outdoor breaks and walks, and give each dog personalized care based on their personality. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow their household rules closely and treat every space and pet as if they were my own.

About: Hi there! Animals have always been apart of my life. I had my first pet when I was 4, the most handsome yellow lab! From then til now, I’ve taken care of dogs for family, friends and other who needed it. I grew up on a farm with lots of chickens, goats, cats and horses! We have had the pleasure of always getting pets at a young age to train them and help them grow to be apart of my family! Whatever it is you need, walking, giving them a bath, simple training, I’m here to help :) I am a childcare provider throughout the day, so if there is a specific time you need, I am more than happy to fit you and your furry friend in! I currently have a French bulldog that lives at home with me, she is the most cuddliest, happy girl you can meet. All pets are welcome in my home that are potty trained, I am also available to help potty train if needed.

About: “With a lifetime of experience caring for dogs and other animals, I bring a deep understanding and genuine love for all pets. Growing up in a home full of animals taught me not only the practical aspects of pet care but also the importance of patience, empathy, and building trust with every animal friend. My lifelong passion for animals sets me apart, ensuring your pet is cared for with the same attention and affection I’ve given my own. As of right now, I am currently looking for a part-time job while attending Monterey Peninsula College, but as of right now, my schedule is pretty open. “I prioritize safety, trust, and a comfortable environment when caring for pets. My home is pet-friendly, featuring a secure fence to keep pets safe during outdoor play. I also have a brand-new, unused dog crate available for any pet that feels more comfortable with their own space. Whether in my home or yours, I ensure your pet feels secure, loved, and well-cared for at all times.

“Great walk by Julia with bourbon.”

About: Neighbors and friends have relied on me since I was 10 years old to check-in, feed, and play with their pets. I started Strider's Pet Care Services for dog walking, cat sitting, and house sitting for clients almost a year ago. I enjoy making friends with a new cat or dog and it is one of my most favorite things to do. I take walks every day around San Juan Bautista and I stop and give some loving pets to all my dog and cat friends along the way. I frequently walk several dogs in town and enjoy the time I get to spend with them. We have three sweet family cats at our house. They are indoor/outdoor cats but we have trained them to come inside when we call! This is helpful because there are a lot of predators in our area and it is nice knowing they are home and safe at night. When I take care of client's dogs, I make sure to get all the necessary instructions and details written down so that I can follow them exactly. This is helpful for me but also reassuring to my clients.
