House Sitting in Chabot Park, Oakland

“Ariena was wonderful! She immediately bonded with my dogs and I felt very comfortable with her right away. The house was left in exactly the same condition in which we left it, and Ariena provided tons of photos and videos while we were away. I would happily book Ariena again when the need arises.”

“Osaze has watched my dog for a couple months now. His mother recommended me. I have been happy with how Osaze has treated my dogs and hope he gets this job.”

“Coneisa went above and beyond on every dimension you could ask for from a pet sitter. She is caring, communicative, and extremely knowledgeable. She will be our first choice for any pet care in the future.”

“Devyn was an absolute dream! She took excellent care of our very spirited border collie pup and our home while we were out of town for a few days. She is extremely gentle, kind, and nurturing, and clearly has a deep affinity for/understanding of animals. This was evident from the moment she first interacted with our girl, and confirmed by the wonderful, thoughtful care she provided for her throughout her stay. Devyn is also an excellent communicator — she provided frequent updates, and immediately responded whenever I had a question or needed to check in. Overall, Devyn is an extremely conscientious, considerate, and caring individual — all qualities that make her a wonderful sitter and an ideal houseguest! I highly recommend Devyn for all of these reasons, and look forward to requesting her services again in the very near future!”

“Lea is AMAZING!!!! I have a 3 year old Boxer and a special needs Doberman. I have a difficult time leaving my dogs with anyone, but needed to for a work trip. I spoke with many pet caregivers and Lea stood out amongst them all. She was communicative, kind, reliable, and went above and beyond to care for my babies. I will 100% be working with her again!”

“We are returning clients because Jason was so great with Oakley before. Oakley had accidents and Jason was communicative with us throughout our trip and we felt comfortable and safe leaving Oakley with Jason.”

“Melissa was wonderful taking care of and interacting with my dog, Tank. She was very responsible with Tank's diet, as well as feeding on time and making sure he always had water. She never ignored him, and always took him for walks. The amount of attention she had for Tank was amazing. I would highly recommend Melissa.”

“Giselle did a great job house sitting for our dog over the weekend. Our dog seemed minimally stressed (we just moved and it’s hard for him to be in a new environment), she sent great updates, and left the house clean. Will definitely use her again!”

“Matt took great care of my dog, Koji. Koji is a very skittish and nervous rescue so finding a sitter for him has been difficult, but Matt provided expert and professional care. Communication was easy and he sent updates throughout my trip. Would definitely recommend.”

“Stephanie came through extremely last minute for my family when we were in desperate need of help! It was a stressful situation and she came in and saved the day while all family members were out of town. Thank you so much for taking care of Finn, we are grateful for you!”

“Sarah is so reliable and easy to communicate with. She sent us just the right amount of photos and check-ins while we were away. I will completely trust her with my dog any time. She is great!”

“Wen stayed at our house for the weekend to watch our doggo. She was super communicative, kind, and helpful with anything we needed. She left feedback and we trust that our Taro was in good hands. She left our house very clean. Thank you, sweet Wen!”

About: I’ve taken care of dog since I was 10. I currently have a beagle, I’ve potty trained her and I always find to take her on walks and especially to dog parks. I’m currently part time, so I have time in the morning and afternoon to take dogs on walks and dog parks. Weekends are pretty open for me as well I have a backyard with open space, I have a fence so they can’t get out. Also my beagle is outside most of the time and she’s friendly so they’ll get along.

“Marlene did a great job taking care of Pepper after we were out of town for a week! She was punctual and made sure Pepper got plenty of snuggles. She also was very kind about bringing in packages and kept the house really clean and tidy. We will definitely book with her again!”

“I can't say enough positive things about Diana and her exceptional dog-sitting services. She stayed at our house with my dog for 9 days when we we were away. She indeed went above and beyond in caring for our furry family member. From the moment we met her, it was clear that she had a genuine love and passion for dogs. Diana not only provided the basic care we expected, but she also exceeded our expectations in every way. She engaged him in playtime, ensured he got plenty of exercise, cooked for him, and the list goes on. Plus, our house was sparkling clean! My dog loves walking and being outdoors. One time, my dog wanted to walk at midnight. I think he was looking for us and thought he would find us outside, and Diana did walk him at midnight. My dog loves the outdoors and likes to sit on a grassy patch, and Diana sat 1-2 hrs with him. She evidently formed a strong bond with our dog when we were gone. We highly recommend her to anyone needing a reliable and caring dog sitter. We will be reaching out to Diana for all our future pet-sitting needs. Thank you, Diana, for your outstanding service.”

About: I grew up on a farm with many different animals and a dog kennel. I love animals but my city children are scared of most living things. Pet sitting or walking will let me get some much needed face to face animal time! I work from home and split custody with my kids so I've got time for walks and check-ins! Looking forward to getting some extra steps in with some pets who need it! I have pet sat for friends in their homes for up to a week at a time. I love detailed lists, especially when it comes with details about the pets personalities. I care deeply about emotional safety for people and animals.

About: I have had dogs since I could remember and became a cat mom 2 years ago. My fur babies are truly my babies. On top of that I have work experience in an animal hospital and volunteer experience walking dogs and play with dogs and cats in the Santa Barbara Humane Society. I am currently looking for part time work so that I can have some freedom back, I would be available early weekday mornings, evenings and possible afternoon. On top of that I would be available some Sunday evenings. I enjoy going out for strolls and would enjoy taking your dogs out around your neighborhood or nearby parks. I will ensure that your pets are well taken care of and are safe as I know how pets are family.

“Melissa is a wonderful with animals. She trains and cares for her dog so well. Very mindful and compassionate toward all dogs and other animals.I’ve seen her raises her puppy and train her dog so well that she doesn’t even need a leash to walk her dog. Truly would trust her with all my pets.”

“Tina has watched my dog multiple times. She is very patient with my Australian Shepherd and always communicates well. Regular updates, walks and feeding are all communicated and I’m thankful I don’t have to board my dog. I would highly recommend her with any of your pets.”
