“Raylene walked my pup about 2x’s a week for about 3months while I was in town. She was punctual, communicated well, and respectful of my dogs sensitivities! We will miss her very much!”
About: I love all dogs and especially the wild working breeds and their silly personalities! From Malinois to Plott Hounds, I am experienced in caring for the special needs of high drive dogs. I have my own working line shepherd who has been working through trauma induced reactivity issues, and I am *very* sensitive to behavior modification training. (No other animals will join in any appointments with clients.) I also adore puppies and their velociraptor ways, and do not charge additional base fees to work with them. I can't wait to meet you and you furry best friends! I am a full time remote worker and have a highly flexible schedule. The company operates during normal business hours, and my weekends are generally open. My offerings are for care within a client's home, and to take dogs on walks near their home. Please tell me about what your canine pal loves to do. Play ball? Sniff out squirrels? Take a leisurely stroll? Become one with the couch? :)
“Angie was wonderful! She went the extra mile for my dog. With being new to Monterey, having a 4 month old puppy, my boyfriend out of town and working one hour away from home, I didn’t worry about my dog while in Angie’s care. I really appreciated being able to be at work and know my dog was in good hands. Thank you Angie!”
“Tamara was an absolute life saver, I booked here extremely last minute and she was accommodating and on time even though she was an entire 30 minute drive away! My boys loved the walk and her company. I highly recommend her.”
“Andrea was so kind and accommodating for our special requests and went out of her way to work with our schedule. She even made sure to bring her son so they could play together (my dogs love kids) and gave them such good love and attention that they barely missed me. She went above and beyond and was so professional, can't recommend enough!!”
“Marion is absolutely the BEST! Marion is patient, gentle, and kind. Marion took a chance walking my two rescue dogs who are recover from severe abuse. She allowed them to warm up to her on their timeline and they looked forward to seeing her every day. Marion made it possible for me to feel comfortable leaving my paw kids in her care while I had to attend work meetings. Furever grateful! 💕”

Sand City dog parents share their Rover experiences
Kelly far surpasses my expectations. My husband, son and I were in town visiting and wanted to take my son to h th e aquarium. I’ve never used rover before but has heard good things. I was anxious about leaving our dog with someone she did not know but she instantly took to her! I was shocked truly because she is picky. It was the best decision and the next time we are in Monterey we will ABSOLUTELY be booking Kelly in advance 💕
Andrea was so kind and accommodating for our special requests and went out of her way to work with our schedule. She even made sure to bring her son so they could play together (my dogs love kids) and gave them such good love and attention that they barely missed me. She went above and beyond and was so professional, can't recommend enough!!
Javier was terrific with our Standard Poodle and small, untrained terrier who can be fearful of strangers. Javier was prompt and after each walk, both pups returned wagging from nose to tail. He is an excellent communicator and always let us know his status. He sent us photos on each walk. We would happily hire Javier again.
So happy with Marion’s daily dog walks for our two pups while we were away. We have an older girl (who cannot walk far) and a younger boy who has loads of energy and strength - so we appreciated her figuring out a way to get both their needs met in one walk. Top notch dog walking, super reliable. And our dogs loved her.
Thanks to Melissa, my mom has been able to keep her dog with her and not have the burden of trying to walk him. Since Melissa walked Charlie most nights each week, he was able to loose one pound and his last month. He’s a bit overweight from my mom’s situation which enables Charlie to be sedentary. I am grateful for the support she gave my mom.
