About: I’ve been taking care of dogs and cats for around 4 years now! I’ve always loved animals, and first started getting expirence from volunteer at the Berkley Animal Shelter! Since then, I have dog and cat sat for many families! 🩷✨🐶 I am free every day of the week, and can fit pretty much anyone into my routine! Dogsitting and walking is what keeps me busy! In my home, we have a dog door that can be shut whenever. We also have a yard with fencing that keeps the animals safe

“Nancy was absolutely amazing, kind, and timely. We were stressing about having to leave our new puppy with a stranger for the day but Nancy's overall demeanor even before we booked her made us realize Baxter would be in great hands. Highly recommend!”

“Deborah was incredible with our cat and rabbit! I loved her detailed writeups about each visit and all of the pictures she sent - they helped me feel much better about being away from the boys for our longest vacation in many years. It made me so happy to watch the animals warm up to her - she truly went above and beyond for all of us. I can’t recommend her enough and will definitely be re-booking in the future when we’re out of town!”

About: I grew up in a large family of animal lovers, we've always had more pets than grandchildren! I've taken care of my own and other family and friend's pets, walking, bathing, and house sitting puppies to senior dogs. My main jobs require me to travel to my clients, so I'm consistently driving through East Bay. Pretty convenient for caring for your darlings ! I’d love to start and end my work days with them. I care for every pet as family and stick to any routines and preferences we discuss. I’ll always make sure pets are fed and walked regularly and tire them out with play and activities before they end their day. I can also give medications if needed. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I want your pets to feel comfortable by keeping to their normal routine. I also like to clean and tidy up anything I use during stays, and send regular photo and message updates so owners feel reassured while they’re away. My goal is to make pets feel happy, safe, and well cared for while keeping their owners informed and confident in the care their pet is receiving.

“Kyla was awesome! She was always on time and made sure our kitties were doing good while we were away. She was super responsive and quick on updates. We loved all the pictures and will definitely be a repeat customer! ?”

About: I offer calm, personalized care in a quiet home where your dog is treated like family, not one of many in a busy boarding facility or a home with multiple dogs. I typically host one household at a time, so your dog gets my full attention, genuine affection, and all the cuddles they can handle. My home is the right fit for friendly dogs who love companionship, walks, and settling into a peaceful routine. I'm especially drawn to dogs who thrive with one-on-one attention rather than the noise and energy of a busy multi-dog environment. I'm certified in Pet CPR, Healing Touch for Animals, and Reiki. And beyond the credentials, I'm deeply attuned to each dog's personality and energy. That attunement is what helps them settle in quickly and feel genuinely at ease. My connection to animals runs deep. I spent five years volunteering at Lindsay Wildlife Rehabilitation Center, working in both the mammal department and wildlife hospital with injured and recovering animals. That experience sharpened my understanding of animal behavior and reinforced something I already believed: animals feel safety before they understand it. My goal is always to create that feeling from the moment your dog arrives! Because I work from home, pets in my care are rarely left alone for long periods and receive plenty of attention, walks, and companionship throughout the day. When pets stay in my home, they become part of a calm and comfortable daily routine. I primarily host dogs from 1 household at a time so each pet receives plenty of individual attention. Dogs here enjoy daily walks, playtime, and relaxed downtime, and I’m home much of the day since I work from home. I pay close attention to each pet’s personality and needs so they feel safe and settled. For drop-in visits or walks in a client’s home, I follow the pet’s normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding, fresh water, walks, litter care for cats, playtime, and companionship. I’m happy to send photo updates so owners know their pets are doing well.

“Saylor is really great with my puppy, he truly enjoy his time with her. She is responsive and communicate well. I want to gatekeep her but she is very good! Would definitely recommend her to everyone else!”

About: I’ve been around animals my entire life, especially cats and dogs, so caring for them comes naturally to me. Over the years, I’ve helped care for many pets—walking, feeding, bathing, and giving them the attention they need to feel safe and comfortable. I’ve also worked with a variety of other animals, including rabbits, snakes, and small pets, so I’m adaptable and open to different care routines. I understand that every pet has their own personality and needs, and I take the time to make sure they feel relaxed, happy, and well cared for. I’m very attentive and follow instructions closely, so if your pet has a specific routine or preferences, I’ll make sure everything is done your way. Whether it’s playtime, quiet companionship, or structured care, I adjust to what works best for your pet. My goal is to provide reliable, loving care so you can feel at ease while you’re away—and come home to a happy, healthy pet. Currently I work full time! I start working at 2:30pm. Thursdays-Tuesdays! I am available in the mornings up until 1:30pm! I am off work Wednesday and Thursday! My backyard is fenced in all around! They can run around all day and play! I am the type to always keep an eye out and make sure any animal under my care and supervision is safe and having a great time! When on walks i am even more aware and make sure they are in my vision at all times. As long as they are potty trained I donot mind having the dog inside with me! I am open to many situations and can adapt to different pets needs!

“Maikala did a wonderful job. She was very professional, punctual and did a great job with communication daily. We would happily hire her again in the future.”

About: My name is Mandisa, I am a caring and compassionate Bay Area kinfolk. My dog recently transitioned after 14 years of lovely Boxer dog life. I decided this would be a great way to help others who might find themselves having a hard time finding a responsible person to love and care for their pets when they have the need to travel for work or for relaxation. I am available to board, drop in, walk dogs, take pups to the vet, or house sit depending on the needs of the client. I am very interested in helping urban farmers like myself. Thank you for taking a moment to view my profile. I hope I am able to meet you and your pet(s)! Diversity Statement: May all beings be free from suffering and injustice. I will always work hard to be inclusive, mindful, and aware of the needs of those families I encounter and their pets. I myself identify as and am happy to welcome QTBIPOC families and all others. Many blessings! MW I am an Ethnic Studies professor transitionionng in to life insurance. I work from home and am available for at least two 30-minute dog walks per day. I am looking forward to providing great care for your beloved pet. I always have lengthy conversations with pet owners including a site visit with the pet and parents. This helps to ensure that everyone is comfortable and the client/pet can see that my yard is fenced in the back and my home is ready for day visits. I am not doing much boarding these days because my Mom has a cat. Willing to consider it.

“Thank you Bibiana!!”

About: Hi there! I'm Jodi. Alongside being a devoted dog owner to my senior Italian grey hound mutt, Bruce, I have extensive experience in walking and dog sitting. Your dog will enjoy fun playdates, walks, and naps. Based in Oakland, next to Fairyland, I'm comfortable with dogs of all sizes, but small to medium are preferred due to apartment size. Just let me know your dog's quirks, and I’ll take care of the rest! My experience with administering medication: I can confidently administer medication as long as I'm shown the proper method beforehand. With a deep love for dogs and years of experience, I provide personalized dog walking services to keep your furry friend happy and healthy. I understand that every dog is unique, so I tailor each walk to meet their specific needs, whether it’s a leisurely stroll or an energetic run. Your pet’s safety and happiness are my top priorities, and I’m committed to giving them the attention and care they deserve. Let me help your dog enjoy their day while giving you peace of mind. When I dog sit, I work from home and am here all day. If your pup is up for it, we'll go on long morning and afternoon walks. our dog will have plenty of supervision and cuddle time. Extra house-sitting services? Let me know, and we can discuss! I’ll follow your schedule to maintain structure and consistency for your pet. We'll stick to their regular meal times, walks, and fun activities to burn off energy. I’ll be home with them all day, ensuring they have a safe place to play or rest while you're away.
