House Sitting in Coliseum, Oakland

“G’La was amazing! She took such great care of Tuna and Finn while we were away for two nights and two and a half days. I felt totally at ease knowing they were in good hands. She was communicative, kind, and clearly loves animals — Tuna and Finn were so calm and happy when we got back. Couldn’t recommend her more. Will definitely be reaching out again!”

“Aman was great house sitting our dog. It was our first time using Rover and I created some confusion but he was very gracious and helpful. Sent plenty of photos and was very communicative as we had a few unexpected packages show up. Even offered to was some dishes we’d left behind! Oh and our dog loved him. Wouldn’t hesitate to use him again!”

“Qishu was amazing with our high energy dog and extremely communicative with us. We received lots of updates and pictures over all the days we were gone. We would unreservedly recommend Qishu to anyone!”

“Dane is an incredible dog sitter! This was his second time watching Noah and it went so smoothly. He is very communicative, gives excellent updates, and Noah absolutely loves him. Will definitely book with him in the future. He took Noah for lots of great walks, had playtime and training time with him, and I genuinely feel like I had peace of mind while traveling that Noah was getting exceptional care tailored to his needs and personality.”

“Victoria was very calm, collected and kind. She was flexible with our last minute needs and able to handle our very high energy doberman puppy with ease. Will be booking again - 10/10!”

“Cathy always does such an amazing job caring for our pups and our home! We have a young, energetic dachshund as well as a senior dachshund with dementia, which means Cathy has her hands full when she comes to stay. The dogs are so happy and healthy when we return, and our home is clean and well cared for. We wouldn’t book with anyone else!”

Tiff K.

“Anais has watched our dog three times now, and we couldn’t be happier. She has excellent communication, provides regular updates, and takes incredible care of our senior pup with complex medical needs. We always return to a clean home, which is such a thoughtful touch. Anais is a wonderful dog sitter - we highly recommend!”

“Korin sat for our 5 month old puppy and was amazing! She treated him with lots of love and as if he were her own dog, which we really appreciate.”

Kimberly T.

“Alyssa stayed in our home and watched our two dogs, cat and guinea pigs for three nights. She was very communicative and always very quick to respond to any texts or questions. She was also very accommodating, in regards to our schedule that ended up changing a bit. She was tidy and thorough. We will definitely love to rebook her in the future. Thanks Alyssa!”

Rachele S.

“Vivian was very sweet and Javi was very relaxed with her. He can be a pretty high stress dog when we are away but he seemed to have really enjoyed his time relaxing with Vivian. Thank you!”

Chelsey T.

“Jesika and Jyhikeen sat for our 3 rambunctious cats for 10 days, and were wonderful! Great, caring communication, daily photos, and we came home to a clean house and happy cats. We'd absolutely hire them again.”

“Heather gives Meg and Simon so much love and attention when she's here. So much that my neighbors notice in a positive way. Heather also will do little things around the house like water plants, run the dishwasher, etc. She usually leaves my place nicer than I left it. I never have a worry when Heather is watching my two goofballs.”

About: With 10+ years of animal care experience — including 4 years as a veterinary assistant — I’m especially experienced with seniors, anxious or shy pets, and those needing medications or extra TLC. I’m reliable, calm under pressure, and treat every pet like my own. Providing care for pets fits naturally into my lifestyle — my schedule is intentionally flexible so I can be available when your pets need me most. Whether you need help during long workdays, weekend trips, or last-minute schedule changes, I’m happy to accommodate a wide range of needs. Let me know what your pet’s routine looks like — I’ll do my best to match it, so they feel safe, loved, and right at home while you’re away. Within the client's home, I do everything I can to make their pets feel safe, seen, and loved. I know how important it is to maintain their routine and environment, especially for pets who thrive on familiarity. I take time to build trust, go at their pace, and make sure they feel comfortable with me in their space. Whether it’s a quick drop-in, extended visit, or overnight stay, I’m respectful of both your home and your pet’s boundaries. I always follow instructions carefully, provide updates along the way, and make sure your pet is happy, secure, and well cared for while you’re away. For the health and safety of your pet, I kindly ask that clients provide their own grooming tools — including brushes, combs, nail clippers, styptic powder, and any other essentials your pet is familiar with. Using your pet’s personal tools helps prevent the spread of bacteria, and ensures a safe, and hygienic experience. Your pet’s safety and your peace of mind are always my top priorities.

“Nicole went beyond our hopes! Nicole regularly sent pictures and updates. We could see how happy our guy was. When we came home be was relaxed and not at all stressed from us being away (as he had been after other sitters). Nicole followed all instructions to care for our guy was is a little high maintenance due to back trouble. Nicole discovered his favorite games and even gave him a nice brushing at the end of their time together. We were so pleased and would love to have Nicole come back!”

About: Dogs have been part of my life for as long as I can remember, from childhood companions to the many pups I’ve had as an adult, including Shiba Inus, Labs, and a Goldendoodle. I also have experience pet sitting from my college days and love animals of all kinds. Whether your dog prefers hiking trails or lounging at home, I’m happy to meet them where they’re at. I’m reliable, grounded, and kind-hearted, with a strong attention to detail, I’m comfortable following specific feeding routines, administering medications, and respecting whatever schedule your pet is used to. I’m genuinely excited to care for your furry family member and make sure they feel safe, loved, and well looked after while you're away. I work from home and have a flexible schedule, so I have plenty of time to play with your pups or hang out with your kitties and give them the attention they deserve. Let me know about any special needs or preferences your pet has, including toys, walking or play styles. I'm happy to accommodate them on my visits. I provide a calm, caring environment and pay close attention to every detail, from feeding routines and medication schedules to subtle changes in behavior, so your pet feels secure and understood. I'm reliable, grounded, and deeply respectful of the trust you place in me, and I treat every animal in my care as if they were my own.

“Tina is the best!”

“Diana arrived early which ended up being a blessing as we got ready to go! She did an incredible job as our dog was a bit standoffish at first. Diana quickly built a strong and trusting relationship with our pup and was very patient! Would definitely love to connect her with our dog again!”

About: One of my first memories is of adopting a stray that we named Chiqule (Gum, in Spanish) because he decided to stick around. Ever since then I’ve picked up many of our four legged friends and made them family dogs. Many years since having my own pet, my love for our furry friends has yet to dwindle and I continue to pet-sit and house-sit just for the opportunity to hang in with a little fur ball. I have experience with a small senior dogs and dogs who have required medication, 3+ walks a day, or an extensive park visit. I’ve house-sat and makes sure to build my schedule around my four-legged, temporary bestie to ensure a stress-free time. I like to establish constant communication and updates with the pet-parent to make sure all is well. I regard play time highly but makes sure to only ruff-house and much as per-parent sees fit. Cuddles are optional but recommended. I my work hours are 8:30-5 but travel form Berkeley to Hayward so I can pop in within that 15 mile radius! My weekends are a lot more flexible. I make sure to follow a requested guideline and/or care checklist from pet-parents. I make sure to scope out the potential yard for any hazards and establish some trust with pets before going out on our first walk. If treats are allowed or provided, I will reward my furry friend when I see best on our initial walks to establish trust and respect. Play-time is important and can also be carried out as the pet-parent sees fit.
