House Sitting in Eastmont, Oakland

“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!”

“Madeline was such a great doggy sitter! I have two pups, both with their own special personalities (one is a little shy and anxious and the other is a little reactive to strangers). She came to do a meet and greet so they would feel comfortable the day of, and she was so patient and sweet with them. She was very attentive and listened to all the details we were sharing with her. She seemed super confident and experienced. For the day of (we were actually getting married!), we did not have to worry one bit about them and she sent us many cute pictures to update us on how they were doing. They looked at ease :) Would definitely recommend her and will contact her again if we ever need a dog sitter. :)”

“This was my second time working with Zsa-Zsa and she was great! Her communication leading up to the stay and during the stay was thorough and detailed. My dogs were excited to see her when she arrived at the house; that’s always a good sign!”

“Took such good care of my little ones and sent wonderful updates. Thank you so much!”

“Korin is always great, loves what she does, super reliable, very communicative while I’m away, and Jake loves her. Such a comfort knowing he and the house are in good hands.”

“Anais took excellent care of our pets and home while we were away for the weekend. Our dog can be a little finicky and needs a lot of company, but Anais was enthusiastic about getting to know his routine and we arrived home to find relaxed animals and the house just like we left it (she even washed her sheets - really not necessary!). Thanks Anais!”

“Dennis is wonderful and we can’t wait to work with him again. He took great care of Bruno and our home. Dennis provided photos and updates on Bruno while we were away and our home was spotless when we arrived home. Highly recommend’”

“Kye was great! Went the extra mile to make sure I was comfortable before leaving Romeo with an in-person pre-meeting. Not only was I updated throughout the trip with cute photos and videos, my home was cared for and left in the same manner it was in before my trip. Thanks for great communication and care for Romeo!”

“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.”

“She is my savior! agreed to take care of our dogs at the last minute, and she did it perfectly. All of my dogs absolutely love her and they looked very comfortable around her. Thank you so so much!”

“Alyssa is a wonderfully pleasant sitter to work with. She is always willing to help us out and has great availability. She cares for our mini dachshund like it is one of her own dogs. We are so appreciative of her support with our old pup.”

“My dog loved Jessica when we met her initially to show her my place for a house sitting/dog sitting job. She was responsive to my messages, and I felt like my dog was in capable hands! would def book her again.”

“Karla was prompt and did a great job being communicative and took care of the cat duties very well.”

“Carolyn has been an absolute lifesaver for our family and our pup. She's incredibly dependable, kind, and clearly loves dogs. From the moment she met our dog, there was an instant connection—and now, tail wags start the second she walks through the door! Carolyn is always on time, communicates clearly, and sends thoughtful updates and photos after each walk, which we really appreciate. Knowing our dog is in such loving and capable hands gives us total peace of mind. If you're looking for someone who treats your pet like their own, we can’t recommend Carolyn enough!”

“Daria was absolutely wonderful on all fronts! She’s extremely timely with her communication/ responses and makes sure she understands all instructions before the visit starts. We have a senior dog with many needs including being carried up/down stairs and on a strict medication schedule, and Daria was very patient, meticulous in administering the medication, kept both dogs on schedule, and sent us photos and updates throughout our trip! We could tell they had been well taken care of and well-loved (and cuddled!) upon our return. The house/ guest space was kept very tidy. It would be an honor to have Daria watch our babies and home again in the future.”

About: Our pets are family. My approach is a balance of attention and simple structure that makes for happy socialization. My partner and I have always had cats and dogs and I have experience with everything from puppyhood to the special healthcare challenges of senior pets (including administration of oral meds and injected insulin) I used to walk dogs back in college as a part-time job. Now, I am excited to make some new 4-legged friends and get out for some exercise together. I work from home part-time and with a very flexible schedule. I do long walks in the morning and afternoon and, if staying with us, in addition to walks, your doggie will have full access to the yard during the day to sunbathe and play. If house sitting at yours, I will be on hand with your pet at a minimum in the morning, for a few hours mid-day, and then all evening and night. We have a large fenced yard and two small, friendly pups (9lb young female yorkie and 12lb female coton de tulear) to play with. "The girls" are not crated at night, but I am happy to set up your pup's normal sleeping area if staying with us. For dog walking, I do 30-45 minute adventures with priority given to clients located in Oakland's Laurel, Dimond, Maxwell Park, and Redwood Heights neighborhoods. Ideally, your dog loves walking with some friends, but we can customize for personal pup needs.

“Kristi did an amazing job watching our four dogs for us while we were out of the country. She communicated and followed instructions perfectly. We came home to a clean house and happy pups!”

“Diana helped us out last minute by watching Ralphie a few days before Christmas. She communicated regularly with us throughout the stay and brought walking outfits for Ralphie. We’re very grateful to her!”

“Nia was incredibly professional, caring, polite and genuinely cares about animals and people. I would trust her implicitly with housesitting or pet sitting! Nia is a gem.”

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.
