“Becky was great!! She was willing to meet beforehand so my dog could get familiar with her. My apprehensive pup was comfortable around her during her weekend stay. Also, Becky checked in with me throughout the weekend and sent me cute pictures of my pup! I’m glad I found a sitter in the area that’s good with my dog”

“I felt comfortable leaving my big guy with Rosita. We did a meet and greet at first so I could see if it was a good fit. She has a spacious yard and took him for long walks. She was very attentive and asked questions to make sure he was well cared for. She updated me during the day with photos and videos. I would totally book with her again and recommend her to anyone! Thank you!!”

“He was a really good guy, very professional. Would call me every time he was concerned about my pup including emergencies. He took very good care of diesel and I definitely recommend him!”

“Maria and Gregory just took wonderful care of our dog Jasper. They were kind, attentive and made sure he got plenty of exercise together with their own dog. They sent daily photos, giving us the ability to know he was in safe hands and so we could relax and enjoy our trip. We had total peace of mind knowing Jasper was in a great home, and we will definitely book them again!”

About: Hi! I’m a responsible college student with years of hands-on pet care experience. I began walking my elderly neighbor’s dog daily and frequently provided dog and cat sitting for families in my neighborhood starting at age 10. I’m comfortable with dogs of all sizes and temperaments and understand the importance of patience, consistency, and safety—especially with senior pets. I have a flexible schedule and genuinely love spending time with animals. Your pet will be treated like family while in my care! As a college student, I have a structured weekly schedule that allows me to dedicate focused time to pet care. I’m available most of the day on Mondays and Wednesdays, and after 4pm on Tuesdays and Thursdays. Spending time with animals fits naturally into my life because I genuinely enjoy being active, getting outside, and providing companionship. Dog walking is something I look forward to—it’s not just a job to me. I love building trust with pets and becoming part of their routine. I’m dependable, communicative, and happy to send updates and photos so you feel completely comfortable while your pet is in my care. I live in a clean, pet-friendly apartment with access to a shared yard. Pets are always supervised outdoors, and I’m happy to take them out for regular walks and bathroom breaks throughout the day. I enjoy being active, so your dog will get plenty of outdoor time, exercise, and attention while in my care. Safety and comfort are always my top priorities.
“Janessa was amazing with my little fur son! I have never left him alone for more than 4 hours at home let alone with someone I just met for a few night stay! 😣 BUT, Janessa and Nalla were so attentive to my boy and his needy mom (me😬). I got multiple updates, pictures, videos, FaceTimes, as well as me constantly checking in. She even got him to go from sitting at the door waiting for us to come back, to listening to commands for a treat❤️ She took him out for multiple walks and even got him to eat after the first day of not eating! I had a meat and greet with Janessa, Nalla, max and myself and I’m so glad I did. When I dropped off Max for his actual stay, he was a bit more ok and curious of the space. Nalla is so sweet and just wanted to play. Such a sweetheart! Thank you so much Janessa for putting this over protective mom at ease even if max wasn’t sure at first. I will definitely rebook for overnights and possibly days to help max be more comfortable and able to play with Nalla❤️❤️❤️❤️”

“Emmanuel was great overall, he was very good at communicating, he took my pup out for walks, to the dog park and even bathed her. I would definitely recommend him and I would book with him again.”

“Michael was very punctual, considerate, and great with our cat! Our cat is usually so shy. He hides from everyone and everything. But Michael was able to get him to come out of hiding and interact with him, which was just amazing.”

About: I haven't taken care of dogs, but I do and have had plenty of my own. So I have been relied on to feed, bathe, and take care if them while my parents are busy or have some where to go.

About: Dog & cat mom, foster, rescue volunteer, and marine biologist working in animal rescue and rehabilitation—I’ve spent my life caring for animals and know how important it is to have someone you truly trust with your pets. I currently intern with the Monterey Bay Aquarium’s Sea Otter Rescue and Rehabilitation Team, so hands-on animal care is quite literally what I do every day! I grew up with both dogs and cats and have experience caring for animals of all ages, personalities, and needs—from kittens and puppies to seniors and hospice pets. I’m comfortable with medications, specialized care, enrichment, exercise, and pets who are shy, reactive, slow to warm up, or particular about their routines. I’m experienced in reading animal behavior, respecting boundaries, and adapting my care to each individual pet. Whether that means walks and adventures, enrichment and play, slow trust-building, or simply keeping them comfortable at home, my priority is making sure your pets feel safe, understood, and loved while you’re away.

About: I’ve grown up around cats my entire life, so caring for them comes very naturally to me. I currently live with four cats, including one of my own, and my sisters have cats as well, so I’m around different cat personalities every day. I’ve cared for cats of different ages and temperaments, from playful kittens to older, more independent cats. I also have experience bottle-feeding young kittens and helping stray cats in need, which has taught me to be patient, gentle, and really attentive to their behavior. I know cats have their own boundaries, some want cuddles and attention right away, while others need their space and time to warm up. I’m completely comfortable letting them come to me when they’re ready. I’m experienced with feeding, fresh water, litter box cleaning, playtime, keeping their space tidy, and following their normal routines. I also pay attention to the little things, like changes in eating, drinking, litter box habits, or behavior, and I’ll always let you know if I notice something unusual. I know it can be hard leaving your cat while you’re away, so I’ll send photos and updates with every visit so you can see how they’re doing and have peace of mind. Most importantly, I’ll treat your cat with the same patience, love, and care I give my own. 🤍🐾

“Emily stayed at our home with our two kitties for 5 weeks while we were on vacation. Our older cat had a medical problem and had surgery while we were gone and Emily took care of everything. She was in contact with us with updates, etc. we are very appreciative. Emily loves animals and is very dependable, intelligent and caring. We will definitely have her back.”

About: I’ve cared for cats with all kinds of personalities, from playful and social to shy and independent. I understand that cats thrive on routine and comfort, so I always take the time to help them feel safe and relaxed in their environment while their owners are away. I’m experienced with feeding routines, litter box care, playtime, enrichment, and giving cats the patience and space they need to warm up at their own pace. Whether your cat loves attention and cuddles or prefers a calm companion nearby, I’m happy to match their personality and needs. I’m also comfortable caring for multiple-cat households, senior cats, and cats that may be nervous around new people. My goal is always to provide attentive, stress-free care and make sure your cat feels comfortable, cared for, and loved

“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!”

About: I’ve had a dog since I was 10 he was older so I had to learn to be patient with him.Now with a newer puppy I had to find ways to train and help him not be so shy around other dogs As a college student I have my weekends open and I stay at school for holidays! During the week I have a lot of time in between class in order to take care of your loving pet! I always make sure to keep an eye on the pets when outside the back yard or just in the house just to make sure they’re okay. During walks when walking pass other dogs I try to walk across the street from other dog or stray off to the side and wait for the dog to pass us.

About: I’ve taken care of multiple dogs in my lifetime. I love going on walks with dogs and relaxing at home with my two dogs. I also love to give dogs baths.

“We have had the pleasure of working with Harrah for our dogs care needs for years now, both with dog walking and with house/pet sitting. We can not recommend her enough! Many times over the years when we are hours away for a family outing, we message to ask if she is available at some point the next day (or even the same day) and Harrah comes to the rescue — we are so grateful for this. Harrah is always incredibly communicative, friendly, respectful, and kind. She pays full attention to the details when we have specific needs or changes in the care for our dogs, and she is never shy at to ask questions to make sure the dogs are taken care of how we need. It says it all when we see our dogs react when she stops by, and it means the world that we can leave for the day or an extended vacation knowing our dogs will receive the best care possible. Thank you for all you do for us Harrah, we appreciate you and your service.”
