Personalized care for your dog or cat - Soledad

“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”

“It was a great process from beginning to end. Darlene is very quick with communication. We had a meeting a few days before dropping her off to make sure it would be a good match. She sent 2-3 updates throughout the day, including beautiful pictures. Those updates made it such a comforting process. Her home is beautiful and clean, with a big yard for doggies to roam. We will definitely be taking Penny back when we go on vacations. Thank you so much!”

“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!!”

“Maria and Gregory took great care of our active 2 year old chocolate lab, Rookie. Maria sent pictures and videos of Rookie on walks, swimming in the river and playing in their yard with their lab, Ruby. We also received pictures of Rookie hanging out with all the humans in the house. It was clear that Rookie really enjoyed his stay and we felt confident that he was well cared for. We would love to book them again.”

“We had a wonderful experience. It was our first time leaving our puppy and she made me feel at ease with leaving him. She sent updates, photos, and videos throughout the stay. Duke threw up and shr let me know and even washed his bedding for us. We will definately bring Duke back.”

Susan V.

“This was the second time my puppy Bruno stayed with Grace and Claudio! They were awesome sitters over the weekend. Plenty of updates and they stick to what Bruno likes- playing fetch and running around! I love that they give feedback about how Bruno behaves as it gives me the sense of security that he is being well watched/ taken care of.”

Arianna E.

“Jill was a great dog sitter!!! Her and her husband spoiled our Great Dane! . I love that they live next to the dog park! I know that is a huge plus for our dog. Jill was extremely responsive with great details of what was going on. I appreciated her fast responses, her positivity and the pictures! She really made us feel comfortable leaving him there. We are grateful she is happy to welcome Beau back. Not everyone can handle a 165# Great Dane in there space. As Jill and her husband saw, Beau gives no personal space, he just wants attention and love the whole time, and the way their daily life is set up I looks like Beau got exactly what he wanted. Loves of love, lots of social /play time with the dogs at the dog park, lots of attention when back at the house and plenty of opportunities to sleep, exactly how a Great Dane likes it!”

Camille R.

“Bruno had a great time with Velsia. She is awesome in so many ways. The updates/pics/videos were very appreciated for it gave us piece of mind that Bruno was in good hands. Definitely will use her services again and we already recommended her to our friends. I’m sure Bruno is looking forward to go stay with Velsia 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.

About: I've taken care of stay cats near my home and other places keeping them feed and healthy till they trusted me enough to take them to a safe place. I've taken cats to local home them as well

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. 🤍🐾

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

About: Cats have their own language 🐾 I provide low-stress, observant, and respectful care that honors your cat’s boundaries while ensuring they feel secure and loved. I’m especially great with: • Shy cats • Independent cats who don’t want forced attention • Cats who thrive on routine and familiarity 🐾 My cat care style includes: • Clean litter boxes & fresh food/water (always on schedule) • Calm companionship (reading, working quietly nearby) • Playtime when they initiate it • Detailed notes so you know how they’re really doing I don’t rush cats — I let trust build naturally. Many cats who “never like strangers” warm up to me with time🐱✨

About: I've have taken care of two dogs, A bunny and strays for years. Im now ready to take my services further and help animals stay safe while owners are away. I live in Salinas with my girlfriend I work early in the morning and she works later in the day so together we make a great team ensure animals stay on schedule and have 24/7 surveillance. In my home I provide a safe, clean, and pet-friendly environment with constant supervision. Pets have access to fresh water at all times, scheduled feedings, and a comfortable place to rest a day I follow each pet’s usual routine, including walks, playtime, and any special care instructions. Also maintain a calm, structured environment to help pets feel secure and reduce stress. In a clients’ homes i ensure to respect and follow the pet’s established routine and house rules exactly as instructed, provide feeding, fresh water, walks, playtime, bathroom breaks, and mental stimulation. Also keep the home tidy, wipe paws if needed, and make sure everything is securely locked before I leave.

About: I am an animal lover who has always had dogs in my home. I have a large backyard with shade and a big garage dedicated to large dogs, and I also accommodate smaller dogs in the house. I am a full time pet sitter home all day with our guests. Please ask if you need anything particular for your family members and I will do our best to accommodate. I have a large fully enclosed backyard and garage as well as indoor spaces with safe separation when required. I will accommodate if I can!

“I cannot begin to explain how much of a life saver Darlene was for me today!! I live in Galt and have been driving all the way to the Greenhaven/Pocket area in the mornings before work (in Elk Grove) for daycare. During our meet and greet I got to see her very well kept home and her two adorable little girls who did very well with my big excited puppy. She sent pictures of Drake romping around her yard and playing with another dog who is currently being boarded with her. She was honest with me letting me know any behaviors that she had to correct and I’m thankful that she is knowledgeable in dog behavior. I will be using her on a weekly basis... especially since my dog didn’t want to leave when I came to pick him up! He was exhausted but was giving her kisses when I tried to tell him we were going home. Drake is happy so I’m happy.”

“We had such a great experience with our dog sitter! They were caring and attentive They kept us updated with pictures and messages, which gave us peace of mind while we were away. Our dogs Orca & Bruno were happy, comfortable, and well taken care of. We truly appreciate all the love, care, and accommodations they provided and would definitely recommend them to anyone looking for a trustworthy and reliable sitter.”

“Jill was awesome and Jack really enjoyed his day with her. He came back cleaner than when we left him and a happy pup. Would definitely use Jill again when we are in the Monterey area!”

“This was our first time using doggy daycare. We are traveling and brought our dogs on our vacation, thank the heavens for Maryjane and Dominic and Rover for putting us together. Such a great experience. And really relieved that the dogs got such wonderful care. Will definitely use Rover again along our travel and 100% Maryjane and Dominic when we are back this way. Really thank you for opening up your house and for your time.”

Karree M.

“Grace and Claudio were so great with my pup! I asked them kind of last minute and they worked with my schedule and took great care of him. They were also super understanding that my dog needed to be separate from theirs and had no issues accommodating. Would def recommend!”

Gina M.

“MacKenzie was GREAT with our GREAT Dane! She was professional, warm, capable and easy to coordinate with. We picked our pup upmat the end of the day and he was happy, exercised, adored a and well fed - all a Dane could ask for! We highly recommend MacKenzie and will hire her again!”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs and other animals since I was 15 for my neighbor and I have loved it ever since. After that I started pet sitting and walking for any of my friends when they needed! About 2 years ago I got a dog of my own as well, he’s a black lab named talford so I’m great with big hyper dogs as well as any other dog with different personality! I also work at pacific pet treats and can help with any treats or item that can help your doggy! I’m currently working part time and I have a lot of time in my day to take care of pets as well as on the weekends! Weekend’s I’m usually working 5am so I’m done for the rest of the day after that! I have a huge backyard with only my black lab who uses all the space, he is very friendly and needs another doggo friend! There is plenty of safe toys and running space for your doggo!

“Oscar was great! We had to find someone last minute and he was very flexible coming over last minute to meet our dog and to figure out a plan for the time we were away. He left us great updates and was very responsive when we messaged him, so we never felt worried about our dog while trying to enjoy our vacation.”

About: Ive been an animal lover since I was little, Ive had all types of animals growing up and absolutely love caring for all pets. My roommates travel often and I take care of their senior dog Riley, he is deaf and blind so he needs a lot of extra TLC. I am local to south salinas, I have my own business and make my own schedule. I have my office 3 mins away from home so have the flexibility. Commutation is the most important thing for me, making sure you have updates about your pet and making sure they feel safe and protected weather it’s on a walk or home sitting.

About: Training and commands take time and patience.over and over the same routine.the rewards come when the pet understands.this can come in the form of playtime. I am retired.pets is a great form of therapy.no stress no worries,no problems.i all ready put in a lot of walking miles for better health on my behalf The pet should be in its own environment.where it will be more comfortable.unless they become comfortable with their sitter.nothing worst than a stress out pet

“My puppy couldn’t be happier in the care of Maryjane and Dominic 🤗 will definitely be going back to them in the future!”

“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.”

“Our pet had a fantastic experience with Molly and her family. Molly and her family were incredibly friendly and welcoming. Molly was extremely supportive, accommodating and helpful. I highly recommend Molly, and we will return our pet to Molly again in the future.”

About: I’ve cared for large, senior, small, young and special needs cats and pups for nearly a decade. I can’t wait to meet and spend time with yours My working hours are flexible during the week, I don’t have children to tend to, and I’m free all weekend so I can spend more time playing with your furry children. They’ll get plenty of play time and walks as needed. I have a fenced yard and two doggies to keep your furry baby company. If they prefer to be alone, we can go to my office where there is a large open area for them to roam, rest, or watch people walk by. If your furry friend prefers to stay in the comfort of their home, my hours are so flexible I can either stay or check in and walk them as needed

“Bryan and Renee have been great! They take such good care of my dog Disco. They’re communicative and take him on lots of trips when I’m away. Their dog is also very friendly and plays well with Disco who is only 8lbs.”

Dalal E.

“If you have a small friendly dog or dogs, book with Mike as soon as possible. He and his wife are simply the most kind and good people. My mom super appreciated them taking care of her two elder rescue dogs who have a lot of fear of people, loud noises, being alone. Our pups got a lot of walking and even ate at Mike's house, which they usually don't do in a new place. Highly recommend them if you want to know your furry fam is safe and happy while youre away.”

Tressa Y.

“Cesar is really amazing and easy to talk to. I enjoyed my vacation because I know my dog is in good hands. He sent me pictures everyday. Would definitely book him again on my next trip.”
