“Dora was wonderful to work with! She took great care of my dog Sassy, feeding her dinner and taking her for a walk on the days I needed to work late. She was very responsive to my messages and sent pictures of the walks. I would highly recommend her to care for your pet. Thanks Dora!”

About: First and foremost we have the best treats and home cooked food. The mystery machine is hosted by none other than Dumbledore himself (a sweet Great Dane who wanted to maintain his Scooby Doo persona) I am a healthcare professional working in emergency and critical care who always wished I was taking care of animals more than people. I am always home, we just moved into a large home with a big backyard in the Oakland Hills and decided to host some fur babies for fun and play time with our own big baby =) we love couch cuddles and beach trips .. your loved one will rarely be this spoiled =) It is our number one priority and our life centers around our children, and thus, your children. We've adjusted to being parents to a stage 5 Great Dane clinger. We have a fenced yard and lots of indoor space to adjust to any need. Just tell us what your pet needs and it can be accommodated.

“Very communicative and mindful of Max. I could tell Max likes Andrew right away because he was so kind.”

About: My eldest started working for Rover a couple years back and began working privately. In this process, I began helping at times and grew to enjoy the company of animals. I have a property that allows both outdoor play and a style home that allows me to keep my children kept apart for mutual safety if required. I enjoy all animals and unlike popular norms, I love both cats and dogs the same! Providing this service allows me to care for and enjoy animals without the long term commitments that come with owning pets. I have also cared for seniors and understand both the value and what is required in caring for others, humans and animals alike. Pet care is easy for me as I have a set up that allows it to be done relatively seamlessly. I work from home and design my own schedule allowing for me adapt to needs of animals with ease I have a fenced backyard and two story home that allows me to provide space required for the needs of your pet. My neighborhood is on a quiet street (cul-de-sac) on a hill allowing for me to easily walk pets.

About: Hi, Meghan here, I have always been a dog-lover, and currently have a lovable fluffy husky. I live in Oakland with my mom, a fellow dog-lover! I allow our furry friends on the couch, but can also work on furniture-boundaries if your pooch isn't allowed on furniture at your own home. I work from home, so I'll be home most of the day during the weekdays. The longest your pup will be home alone (with my pups) is around 5 hours. I am comfortable with big dogs. I can give medications, and can brush your pooch as well! Here's a little about us: Meghan has been a dog-lover since birth. She grew up with dogs of all shapes and sizes. Treesa loves pups of all sizes! Meet my pets: Just the dogs! About my yard We have a fenced backyard. My experience administering medication We are comfortable administering oral medication. **We do have a Potty Clause. We understand accidents happen, and are very forgiving, as pups are often excited and can't help themselves at first. However, we have occasionally had extreme repeat offenders. We take dogs on the basis that they are potty trained. If we feel there are an excessive number of indoor incidents, we will let you know, and ask for a $10 additional fee (per week, or fraction thereof), to cover the cost of laundry and cleaning supplies.** Thanks! I work from home so your pup will hang out with me and Winston at home, join us on walks, and get to spend the day with us! I have a fenced yard. Security gate at my back door means fresh air without escape opportunity. We're working on installing a dog door, so that should happen later this year!

About: Gentle (or jumpy!) giants are my specialty. I’ve spent the last 15 years sharing my life with Bullmastiffs, Dogues de Bordeaux and Cane Corsos from puppyhood to passing. Medium dogs are great but the big boys and girls are my heart. All ages welcome. My home is 100% set up for dog life. I’m retired from my full-time career but still work very part-time as a CrossFit coach, and also workout daily. Mornings I’m at the gym but home between classes and all afternoon. I have time for potty in the morning and awesome walks in the afternoon. Of course, cuddle and play time included! I have a fully fenced back yard, a dog run for their business, and a big dog bed in my living room. I have plenty of sanitized toys. Basically my home is set up to share with dogs. Unfortunately, my last baby crossed the rainbow bridge in September so I’m taking this opportunity to care for yours.

About: I've had cats and dogs my whole life, and have helped train puppies as young as 8 weeks old to be ready for adult doghood. I have administered deworming medication, washed dogs numerous times, and love making sure pups are living life to the fullest. I also love being active for high-energy dogs and taking them on walks all around Oakland, exploring different trails, parks, and neighborhoods. I’ve taken care of cats and dogs young and old, and show each of them love, care, and patience as if they were my own. I have a large fenced in yard for dogs to openly play in, and a large home for both dogs and cats to enjoy during their inside time. I can’t wait to meet your pet! I am typically home all day as I work from home, and have plenty of availability. As I work from home and have flexible hours, I'm available for walks, doggy day care , or boarding all week. I'm flexible with working hours and am happy to accommodate your needs! I live in a house with a fenced-in yard, so your pup can play in the yard as well as hang out inside the home. I love going on walks and hikes all around Oakland and the surrounding neighborhoods and parks, and can provide plenty of play for higher-energy animals.

“Natalia is great! You can tell she really cares about animals! She shows interest in our pup and sends lots of pictures when she’s with him! It’s nice to know that he is in very capable and caring hands 😊”

“Karla is great! She shows up on time and my dog is happy and ready to lay down after her walks with Karla. I will definitely request her services again.”

“Jiaji took such great care of Ginger! The updates were detailed and reassuring, and it was clear they were attentive to her needs on the walk. They made sure she had fresh water, paced the walk based on her energy, and gave her lots of affection. Ginger came back happy and content. I would definitely recommend Jiaji to anyone looking for a caring and reliable walker!”
