House Sitting in Lincoln Highlands, 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.”

“Wow, what to say about Grace? Nothing but good things! My partner and I went on a 9 day trip to Europe and, before we went, I was extremely nervous. Like most people, our 2 dogs (and 1 cat) have a very particular schedule and I was so worried that no one would be able to take care of them the way WE did. I’m so happy to say that Grace immediately put those fears to rest. At my request, she sent twice daily updates, along with photos, showing her adherence to the pets’ routines. We still retained our dog walker and he had nothing to report but positive things about Grace and her care of the animals. We even had a friend stop by (did I mention how nervous I was???) and she had nothing but good things to say about Grace. Grace took all of my instructions and nerves with aplomb, and, dare I say it, grace. We’re so happy with her services and hope she will sit for us again soon!”

“Melina has watched our puppies (and cat) several times now, and she is always such a joy to work with! Prompt, professional, kind, and most importantly-the animals are so happy to see her! Makes it much easier to be away when we have to travel.”

“Thanks for taking such great care of Sofia!”

“Dea was extremely professional and knowledgeable of our dog’s needs. She made us feel very comfortable and was a great communicator. We definitely would recommend her services and would love to book with her again.”

“Katie was amazing with my dogs. One had had a dental 24 hours before and needed supervision and meds. She was also with them over 4th of July, and as you other dog pawrents know, it’s a scary time to be away from your pups. After meeting Katie briefly prior to the visit I felt so safe leaving them in her care. She left the place clean and well taken care of. Kind, conscientious, trustworthy and fabulous with dogs!”

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

“Devyn took care of our dog overnight and took excellent care of her. She diligently reviewed the care instructions in advance and was very communicative. We are new dog parents and it was our first time leaving our dog and Devyn was extremely understanding and accommodating. She left our house in good order. Would highly recommend her services and we hope to use her again!”

“Maia truly loves animals and she is very responsible. Our cats were relaxed and happy when we returned. She provided good updates and communication while we were away. We would be happy to have Maia as a catsitter again in the future.”

“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.”

“Alyssa was incredible! She took amazing care of Pip, was super communicative, and went way above and beyond! I felt 100% comfortable knowing Pip was getting lots of love and attention while I was away!”

“Our experience with Shanley was nothing short of amazing! She was our very first Rover/pet sitter experience. We are so thankful to have found her. She sat our 130lb Irish Wolfhound, Lando, at our house for two days. Shanley was very attentive to Lando’s schedule and took excellent care of him. She updated us on how he was doing, sent pictures, and always responded very quickly. We saw her a few days later so she could meet our other dogs, and Lando was over the moon to see her again! We definitely plan to use her for future trips”

“Jason watched our dog while we went away for a few nights. He was communicable, shared pictures of our dog, and left the house spotless! Thanks again, Jason, and we look forward to having you watch Berkeley another time!”

“Victoria was an excellent sitter! She did a great job taking care of our very energetic dog and was communicative throughout our trip. Would definitely recommend her!”

“Osaze was great with Arthur. He was communicative, prompt, and an all around great dog sitter. Highly recommend him for your dog sitting needs!”

“Caleb was thoughtful and attentive with our 1-year old energetic puppy. Our dog immediately loved him and then we got daily updates and knew that Caleb was taking good care of our dog. He house-sat and we will definitely want to have him back!”

“Marjerrie did a fantastic job taking care of Moon, our husky. They went on long walks and she was very responsive throughout the stay. She spent a lot of time playing with Moon and sent us regular updates. Overall, we would highly recommend her. Her pleasant, friendly nature was a definite plus! ☺️”

“Bianca was reliable and a good communicator. She did all I asked with my dog and cat and sent me photos of a happy dog. I hope to be able to have her again”

“Aviva is such an excellent doggy caretaker - she's thoughtful, kind, and a joy to work with. I'm told our basset hound made the rounds on Instagram and now his self-esteem is at an all-time high. Thanks Aviva!”

“Could not have asked for a better, more competent, more thorough sitter for my two (no always easy) pups. Simply based on the questions Becca asked me ahead of her stay, I knew my pups were going to be in good hands. She made enrichments toys for them, played endless fetch, walked them, and gave them all the snuggles they wanted. They can’t wait to see Becca again.”
