House Sitting Alameda

“Barbara provided exceptional care for both our home and our cat during her one week stay as our house sitter. She communicated consistently by sending daily updates and photos, which helped ease our minds while we were away. When minor issues arose, such as an ant invasion and watering during a heat wave, she handled them proactively. Barbara was patient with our cat, even when he became extra rowdy and anxious in our absence. We returned to a spotless home, with fresh sheets and towels that she had cleaned and neatly replaced. Her attention to detail and professionalism are remarkable. I highly recommend Barbara for her trustworthiness, conscientiousness, and overall fantastic service as a house and pet sitter.”

“Chardonay was fantastic and our dog Harley absolutely loved them! We already set up another sit, so we highly recommend working with her. Harley has some specifically reactivity needs, and we felt at ease with Chardonay watching her. She kept us updated and sent lots of dog pics throughout the sit too.”

“Shannon was a great pet sitter for our mini Aussie. Our pup warmed up to her very quickly and looked like she was having fun in all the photos we received while away. Came home to a clean home and happy dog! Would definitely book Shannon again the next time we travel.”

“Kayla was such an attentive and communicative sitter. She took great care of Rocco taking him on walks and giving him lots of pets! We would definitely recommend her and look forward to working with her again.”

“William has a very calm, patient energy that put our anxious little dog at ease almost immediately. He was very communicative before and throughout the dogsitting stay, and we were so happy knowing that our pet was comfortable snuggling with him at home. Thank you!!”

Maddie B.

“Jasper is attentive, positive, caring, and fun! Appreciate the questions Jasper asked in our first meet and greet-they really captured everything. Our dog, Fennel, loves Jasper. We received just the right amount of updates from them. We would highly recommend Jasper as a pet sitter!”

“I honestly can’t say enough amazing things about Marie!! We’ve used multiple sitters on Rover before, and she is in a league of her own. She went so far above and beyond—sending tons of photos and videos, keeping our home spotless, and even helping set up a water fountain and troubleshoot our cats’ picky eating habits. It’s clear she genuinely cares. Most importantly, she loved our cats like they were her own, and that meant everything to us. She was truly an angel and we feel incredibly fortunate to have had her. We will absolutely be using her again—she deserves every bit of recognition! Thank you so much Marie!!”

About: I’m a caring and dependable pet sitter with experience looking after dogs and cats of all ages and personalities. I provide feeding, walks, playtime, and lots of attention while following each pet’s routine and care instructions. I understand that every pet is unique and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. I also prioritize clear communication and enjoy sending regular updates and photos for peace of mind. I currently have a remote job, so my schedule is extremely open and flexible giving me ample time to give your fur baby/babies the attention they need! I care for your pets by following routines carefully, keeping pets supervised, and providing regular updates. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities.

“Carmen was wonderful and very communicative. She took great care of Pugsley and left my apartment cleaner than when I left it. I’d 100% book with her again!”

Meagan K.

“River was great! Very communicative and happy to send pictures/updates throughout. She generously accommodated some scheduling snafus between us, and additionally was happy to come meet him before the trip to ease into things. Importantly, she was happy to ask questions as needed. Our dog requires patience and exhibits some odd (charming) traits, and she was happy to learn how to accommodate a dog like that and get to know and meet his needs. While our dog was happy to see us, he wasn't overly relieved we were back, either :)”

“Scott provided excellent care for our two dogs, two chickens, and our home. He provided clear and timely communication. We felt like we left everything in goods hand when we were away. Thank you Scott!”

“Kirby stayed with our dog and cat for six nights and followed special diet instructions for our dog, which we appreciated. Both pets seemed well cared for when we returned home, and our home was left spotless!”

Sarah S.

“Great with the pups and took them to an off leash place where they could run off their energy. They were exhausted when we got back from our own adventure. We appreciate you!”

Jewel M.

“Aaron was a fantastic cat sitter. He gave my asthmatic cat, Tiger, her inhaler like an absolute pro, sent wonderful photo updates the whole time, and was incredibly conscientious. He left the house spotless, and somehow even won over my very shy kitty, Flora, by the end she was rubbing up against his legs like they’d been best friends for years. Highly recommend.”

Athena W.

“Michael was fantastic. He was open to meeting on short notice and saved the day when our original sitter fell through. He's a real pro and was so attentive to our pups. We'd absolutely book him again.”

Robin C.

“Shelly is a wonderful pet sitter and a great house guest! I love it when she watches my puppy because I know I don’t have anything to worry about. She takes great care of my little dog and sends me updates and pictures while I’m at work.”

Cassie A. B.

“Second time using Athena and she is just wonderful! My cat is a territorial old man but Athena is the only sitter he’s actually somewhat cuddled with. She respects his space personality which is what really helps him.”

Jade L.

“Meagan was great! It was a last minute booking during a holiday week and she just jumped right in. Poppy was feeling pretty spirited and Meagan was able to calm her down, get a harness on her. , and take her for a walk. Also, great communication!”

Jamie L.

“Jaycen was an excellent pet sitter. He was very conscientious, responsible, kind, and made sure that our pets received plenty of attention while we were gone.”
