House Sitting in East Peralta, Oakland

“This was my first time using Rover and I was a little nervous because I didn’t know what to expect, and Madeline was phenomenal. My dog, Swiffy, loved her immediately and she sent me thorough updates of their time together which really helped put me at ease and I was able to enjoy my event knowing my dog was being well taken care of. I would highly recommend her.”

“Grace stayed in my home and watched my two fur babies (5-month-old kitten and 3-year-old cat) for 10 days/9 nights and she truly did the most amazing job—I really can’t recommend her enough!! I’m new to Rover and was hesitant to have someone I don’t know stay in my home for that long but Grace was so kind, trustworthy, and thoughtful. She was very quick to respond to my messages and sent me thorough updates every other day with lots of adorable pictures of her playing with my cats, which made me so happy. My kitten is a ball of energy and is still learning how to navigate the litter box (sometimes she steps in her poop) and required some medication while I was away. Grace had no issues administering the medication, she did an awesome job monitoring the poop situation, and played with her a ton (my kitten is probably disappointed that I came home from my trip 😂). Also, I cleaned my home before I left and when I returned, it was just as clean (if not cleaner) than I left it. I will 100% be a repeat client! Grace is fantastic!!”

“Dea was great with our senior pup and I felt confident that he was in good hands. Dea is easy to communicate with and provided photos and updates. We came home to a happy, sleeping dog and an immaculate house. 10/10!”

“Thanks for taking such great care of Sofia!”

“Book her without hesitation! It was the first time that my husband and I were having a dog sitter over our house so we were a little anxious, but Melina was extremely kind and helpful. She was sending a lot of pictures and updates of our puppy while my partner and I were out. Our little Sansa loved her! Plus she gave us a lot of advices about training and puppy behavior! THANK YOU SO MUCH!”

“Wow, where do I start? Jana is such a great sitter, super communicative and anticipates my cats and my needs before I even ask them. She really sees my cats unique personalities, and I can tell from the photos she shared that they really trust her. She got my shyer cat who typically hides for days to sit with her on the very first day! She left my house sparkling clean. I trust Jana completely.”

“Katie was great with our two aussies for an overnight house sitting! they were tired and happy when we got home, and she left the house clean. Thanks so much Katie!”

“Grey was awesome! He asked all the right questions, which helped put us and Pawlo at ease. He was genuinely sweet and gentle with him. We are looking forward to work with Grey again!”

“My dog is usually wary around strangers, and he was happily jumping up on Molly the first time he met her! I felt completely secure leaving him in her calm, capable care for almost 2 weeks. Molly was wonderfully communicative throughout the entire process, including sending photo and video updates. She also had to deal with unexpected crate rest the last three days when my dog happened to have a flare up of a condition during her stay. She dealt with taking him to the emergency vet with incredible grace and compassion, stayed with him as much as she possibly could and kept me abreast of the situation. She also took beautiful care of my home. I would highly recommend her!”

“Wish I could give more stars. Her attentiveness to all details of our dog Pippi and cats Vincent and Mia. Her caretaking of our animals AND our home. Her communication/pics while we were away - so so so reassuring and heartening. We came home to a happy dog and cats and a spotless house, including fresh sheets, which she'd requested she wanted to do. *sigh* She is a wonderful sitter and person. We are so so grateful!!”

“Jillian was super for my old dog Shane. He immediately took to her on the meet and greet, and she quickly understood his personality and needs. Shane was very relaxed when I return from the two days away, indicating that her felt very comfortable with Jillian being here with him. She also left the house in very good order, including a couple of nice extra touches.”

“I couldn’t recommend Lauren more. She was excellent with my little guy, looked after my house beautifully and was very communicative.”

“Sasha was fantastic. She was quick to respond and very communicative throughout the sit. Our puppy liked her right away and seemed to have a good experience with her. We highly recommend!”

“Korin is absolutely fantastic- she’s a great communicator, was so kind and gentle while also being “in charge” with my reactive dog. She sent great updates and pictures and I can’t wait to work with her again!”

“Went above and beyond dog and house sitting for my 2 pups. Christine gave lots of updates, sent photos and videos, and spent tons of time with our dogs. She took special care of our shy dog and played ball with our energetic terrier. She also left our house neat and clean! Have already asked her to watch our pups again.”

“What can I say? Hieremila is the best. She communicates very well with regular photos and updates, she was sweet with my high-energy dog, she took great care of our home, and she really listened to my dog's and my needs. If your pet deals with even mild anxiety issues, she gets it. I particularly appreciated her staying a bit later than expected on a Friday night - which was totally optional - so that she could hand off dog care in person when I got home and help my dog avoid potential separation anxiety. I'm so grateful for her help. Recommend without reservation.”

“We were so happy that Alyssa was available to watch our cat and house sit! She is super friendly and she clearly communicated with us during our time away. We got regular updates on our kitty and when we returned to our house it was neat and tidy. We would definitely book her again!”

“Lisa is the best! She's so calm and loving and attentive. We loved her energy. I have a senior dog and we had some last minute special needs and Lisa was able to accommodate no problem. Highly recommend.”

“Juanita took great care of my dog Pharah while I was away for a long weekend. She was very considerate and followed the care and feeding instructions and schedule. Pharah made fast friends with her new dog sitter!!”

“Cate was a big help with our house/dog sitting needs. She was great about communicating with us. We appreciated the fact that she was willing to meet with us twice before her scheduled stay so she could meet our elderly dog and get to know our house and schedule. We will definitely try to schedule with Cate again.”
