About: I have taken care of animals ever since I was little. Since I was about eight years old I have looked after a variety of animals. Including dogs, cats, and even reptiles like lizards and bearded dragons! I also previously worked at multiple dog daycares and was a shift supervisor at one of them for over a year. I currently have no job so the most I am out of the house is two or three hours and we do frequent potty breaks. I also take them to the dog park if weather permits:)! I have a fenced in yard with two very friendly dogs who love to have friends. And plenty of extra room inside the house so the dogs have their own space aswell!
“Sam and Helen went well beyond my expectations! They were incredibly professional, prompt, kind and attentive with their care. They asked questions, followed all instructions accordingly and took time to leave me multiple, detailed updates throughout the day. I really love that they were able to meet my pup where she is at and give her the space to get comfortable at her own pace. They provided a lot of stimulation with tug, tricks and taking my sweet girl for scenic beach walks. She was well taken care of and it shows how much they prioritize making your pet feel at home. I would highly recommend them to other pet owners!”
“Cristine was truly amazing and the best sitter we’ve ever had! From our meet and greet, her experience and passion for animals were clear right away. She is incredibly compassionate, deeply dog-loving, and extremely careful and safe (our top priority). During our flight chaos, she was the sweetest, modified, and welcomed Augie with genuine excitement, asked all the right questions, and treated him like her own (even brushing him; he came back smelling great!). We felt completely at ease the entire time. Doggies truly deserve her care, and we’ll request her every time we travel 🥹if she’s not fully booked by then from this very well deserved review! 🐾💛 Thank so much Christine! 🐶”
“I just moved back to Monterey and was happy to be able to have Marion as a reliable sitter. Across the process of scheduling, her communication has been clear and I’ve appreciated her flexibility. Pinto can take a while to adjust to new setting and was still nervous when I left her but 20 minutes after, I got an update showing me how well she had adjusted to Marion’s and had even gone back to playing with an old friend. Throughout her stay, I felt confident that she was not just being well taken care of but having a great time thanks to Marion’s regular check-ins. I would definitely recommend Marion for anyone who wants a kind sitter that is responsive to different dogs needs and an excellent communicator.”
“Carol was great with my dog, Henry! Even in her small space, he felt right at home. She took amazing care of him and even helped with his training. She sent photos & updates throughout his stay. Highly recommend!”
“Jesse is an excellent pet sitter. He has taken care of my dog , Penny, a number of times and there is no one I would trust more in Monterey with her care. She always gets excited when I drop her off and Jesse is fantastic about communicating with updates and photos. I would recommend his services to any of my family and friends.”
“Dilan was incredibly responsive! Even with my last-minute request, he was able to take great care of my dog, Rambo. Communication was excellent throughout, and the whole experience was smooth and stress-free. I’ll definitely book with him again the next time I’m in the area. Highly recommend! 🐾”
“Denise clearly is passionate about caring for dogs! She was easy to communicate with and made sure our pups were well cared for with daily walks, trips to the beach, and plenty of other canine companions! We felt assured that the girls were in good hands for their extended stay.”
“The best sitter! Cori takes really good care of the dogs that stay with her. Our dog Nemo does great there, and comes home healthy and happy :) We appreciate the quick and professional communication with Cori, and she is flexible and accommodating with our schedules. It's a nice feeling to know our dog is safe and well cared for while we're away.”

About: I have a deep love and passion for animals. I have cared for many types including cats, dogs, snakes, rabbits, even insects! I am a volunteer at a local animal shelter, so I have a great deal of experience handling animals from all walks of life. I recently relocated, so I am offering discounted rates as well as a promo code for first time Rover users: DANIEA95969 If you have a dog with reactivity, I am happy to help! Reactivity can be a stressful matter for owners to endure with their pet, but that doesn't mean they don't deserve to be outside and explore. Feel free to message me with questions if you would like to set up walks with your reactive dog. I also have experience with senior dog care including walking challenges, diaper changes, and oral medication. No matter the breed or size, I will care for them like my own. I am happy to do day walks, at-home visits, overnights, boarding etc. I will do my best to accommodate any repeat clients as I want your pets to feel bonded and comfortable with me! I will always put your pet's comfort and happiness first! I know with my own dog that trusting a stranger with your fur baby can be nerve wracking, but I can assure you, your pet will be in great hands.
“Christina made it super easy. Really fast responses. Good clear communication. Most importantly, my dogs had a great time and came back home wagging and smiling. Very highly recommended.”
“Donna was absolutely wonderful! She took such great care of FiFi and kept me updated the whole time, which gave me real peace of mind. You can tell she truly loves animals and treats them like her own. FiFi came home happy, calm, and well cared for. I couldn’t ask for a better sitter — highly recommend Donna to anyone looking for someone kind, reliable, and caring!”
“Johemy was amazing with our Daisy! She sent us daily pics, and it was obvious Daisy thrived in her care. Excellent communication from the very start. We would enthusiastically recommend her to anyone in need of a pet sitter! Thank you so much Johemy!”
“Such a loving and caring family. My dogs walked in as if they walked into their home. I left them feeling confident that they were in good hands. Cecilia is great in communication and sending pitfie updates we would definitely go back.”

“This was my second time using Rover so there’s still some hesitation on my part. However, Kalikonani was amazing! I have a senior dog so knowing that she had a senior pup of her own, made me feel relieved that she’d understand my dog. She provided pics, updates, and was a great communicator. I definitely recommend her and will be booking with her again in the future :)”

She communicates clearly and asks/notifies when something is amiss. She was also flexible to changes in care during the period - adding two extra morning visits to keep my kitties happy. Valeriya provided me peace of mind while I was away and I really appreciate that. You will know your furballs are being fully cared for - Highly recommend!!”
“Andrea was absolutely amazing and went above and beyond in every way. She was incredibly kind, fast to communicate, and I felt completely at ease the entire time I was away.

I would 100% book her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a fantastic sitter.”

They are also super quick to reply whenever I sent a message which is a whole 5 stars in its own. Will definitely contact them again for dog sitting when we are in the area”

About: What sets me apart is my lifelong passion for animals and extensive hands-on experience caring for them. I’ve been a dog owner since I was 15, and I currently have two French Bulldogs, which has given me a deep understanding of breed-specific needs, puppy energy, and senior pet care. Over the years, I’ve learned how to read dogs’ body language, understand their moods, and respond calmly and effectively to keep them safe and happy. Professionally, I’ve worked in both an animal hospital and a doggy daycare, where I gained experience with feeding routines, administering basic care, monitoring health and behavior, and handling pets of all sizes and temperaments. I’m also skilled in creating structured routines, providing gentle exercise, and giving extra love and attention to pets who need it, like seniors or shy dogs. I pride myself on being reliable, patient, and attentive. I make sure to communicate clearly with pet owners, providing regular updates and photos so they can feel confident and at ease while they’re away. For me, every pet deserves individualized care, respect, and affection, and I treat each one as if they were my own. My combination of personal experience, professional training, and genuine love for animals ensures that every pet in my care feels safe, happy, and truly cared for. Caring for pets is part of my daily routine. I make sure they get fed, exercised, and plenty of love every day, and I stay on top of any special needs or routines. I enjoy spending time with them and making sure they feel happy, safe, and well cared for. I care for pets by keeping them safe, comfortable, and happy. I follow their routines, supervise playtime and walks, provide lots of love and attention, and make sure the environment is clean and secure. I also watch for any signs of stress or health issues so pets always feel well cared for.

“First time using Rover and happy with how everything turned out. Was in town with the fam and planned on visiting the aquarium.

We were running late for pickup and Jesse was kind enough to give us extra time so we didn’t have to rush back. Thanks Jesse!”
“Elizabeth was attentive and kind. She requested meeting our dog first and making sure she got along with her dog, sent pic throughout the stay and was super friendly. Felt my dog was safe and loved the entire stay.”

Carol’s dog walking service enabled us to have two daytime outings without worrying about him. Thanks, Carol!”
“Katt is an incredible dog walker! From the moment she arrived, my dogs were instantly comfortable with her. She was warm, attentive, smart, and asked all the right questions. She came prepared with a fantastic treat bag and a solid understanding and positive reinforcement. She handled my two energetic dogs with ease and confidence, and I immediately felt at ease knowing they were great hands. I couldn’t have been happier to find her - highly recommend just after one walk!”
“You will never regret hiring, Arlene. Your pet will feel like they are being cared for by their own and may even want to stay with her. Arlene has been our dog walker and caregiver since 2019. She's the best we have ever had and this is coming from a previous dog sitter.”

“Carol agreed in Oct to have visits to meet our dog in preparation for Xmas trip. Our dog is really scared of strangers. It took 6-7 visits for our dog to get used to Carol.

She contacted us with updates and questions and we felt like our dog was in good hands. We will continue to work with Carol now that our dog has another person she likes! ”

I would highly recommend them to other pet owners!”
“I just moved back to Monterey and was happy to be able to have Marion as a reliable sitter. Across the process of scheduling, her communication has been clear and I’ve appreciated her flexibility. Pinto can take a while to adjust to new setting and was still nervous when I left her but 20 minutes after, I got an update showing me how well she had adjusted to Marion’s and had even gone back to playing with an old friend. Throughout her stay, I felt confident that she was not just being well taken care of but having a great time thanks to Marion’s regular check-ins. I would definitely recommend Marion for anyone who wants a kind sitter that is responsive to different dogs needs and an excellent communicator.”
