House Sitting in Fairfax, Oakland

“This was my first time using Rover and I was a little nervous because I didn’t know what to expect, and Madeline was phenomenal. My dog, Swiffy, loved her immediately and she sent me thorough updates of their time together which really helped put me at ease and I was able to enjoy my event knowing my dog was being well taken care of. I would highly recommend her.”

“Wow, what to say about Grace? Nothing but good things! My partner and I went on a 9 day trip to Europe and, before we went, I was extremely nervous. Like most people, our 2 dogs (and 1 cat) have a very particular schedule and I was so worried that no one would be able to take care of them the way WE did. I’m so happy to say that Grace immediately put those fears to rest. At my request, she sent twice daily updates, along with photos, showing her adherence to the pets’ routines. We still retained our dog walker and he had nothing to report but positive things about Grace and her care of the animals. We even had a friend stop by (did I mention how nervous I was???) and she had nothing but good things to say about Grace. Grace took all of my instructions and nerves with aplomb, and, dare I say it, grace. We’re so happy with her services and hope she will sit for us again soon!”

“Thanks for taking such great care of Sofia!”

“Dea was so great with Loki, I could tell from the photo and video updates that he was very comfortable and happy! Would absolutely rebook her services again and would definitely recommend Dea to anyone!”

“Korin is absolutely fantastic- she’s a great communicator, was so kind and gentle while also being “in charge” with my reactive dog. She sent great updates and pictures and I can’t wait to work with her again!”

“Melina was a huge help in a pinch when my sitter cancelled. She was attentive and sweet with my pup and sent many pictures and updates throughout the day! Would love to have her help again and recommend her greatly!”

“Jill is so awesome. She watched our little chihuahua mix and our outdoor cats for a little over a week. She was super communicative and thoughtful. Our animals were well cared for. We felt extremely comfortable having her stay at our house. And like all her other reviews, we were super grateful and amazed on how well she left our house! It was so clean, maybe more clean than when we left! Hopefully we can book Jill again.”

“My dog is usually wary around strangers, and he was happily jumping up on Molly the first time he met her! I felt completely secure leaving him in her calm, capable care for almost 2 weeks. Molly was wonderfully communicative throughout the entire process, including sending photo and video updates. She also had to deal with unexpected crate rest the last three days when my dog happened to have a flare up of a condition during her stay. She dealt with taking him to the emergency vet with incredible grace and compassion, stayed with him as much as she possibly could and kept me abreast of the situation. She also took beautiful care of my home. I would highly recommend her!”

“Katie was great with our two aussies for an overnight house sitting! they were tired and happy when we got home, and she left the house clean. Thanks so much Katie!”

“Absolutely thankful that Hieremila was able to jump in last minute and give us peace of mind that our dogs were being properly cared for while we attended to a family emergency.”

“Devyn took care of our dog overnight and took excellent care of her. She diligently reviewed the care instructions in advance and was very communicative. We are new dog parents and it was our first time leaving our dog and Devyn was extremely understanding and accommodating. She left our house in good order. Would highly recommend her services and we hope to use her again!”

“I couldn’t recommend Lauren more. She was excellent with my little guy, looked after my house beautifully and was very communicative.”

“Bianca was reliable and a good communicator. She did all I asked with my dog and cat and sent me photos of a happy dog. I hope to be able to have her again”

“Victoria was the best! She sent pictures daily and was extremely communicative. Our pets were well cared for! We will 100% be asking her to come back next time we are gone.”

“Our elderly dog was safe and happy while we were on an extended vacation out of the country. Jason communicated with us as we discussed prior to our trip and everything was taken care of just like we planned.”

“Caleb was thoughtful and attentive with our 1-year old energetic puppy. Our dog immediately loved him and then we got daily updates and knew that Caleb was taking good care of our dog. He house-sat and we will definitely want to have him back!”

“My pets loved Lissette! She was great about sending updates & very respectful of our home”

“Osaze was great with Arthur. He was communicative, prompt, and an all around great dog sitter. Highly recommend him for your dog sitting needs!”

“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!”

“Thank you so much exceptional care you provided to my beloved dog, Millie. You truly went above and beyond, and I am incredibly grateful for your dedication and expertise. Millie had an incredible time with you, and I couldn't be happier with the experience. From the moment I dropped Millie off, it was evident that she was in capable hands. Your genuine love and passion for dogs shone through, instantly putting both Millie and me at ease. Your friendly demeanor created a warm and welcoming environment, allowing Millie, normally a bit anxious, to feel comfortable and loved throughout her stay. I also want to extend my heartfelt appreciation for the way you handled a significant issue that arose during Millie's stay. Your quick thinking and proactive approach were truly remarkable. When Millie unexpectedly fell ill, you promptly contacted me, provided updates on her condition, and ensured she received the necessary medical attention. Your attentiveness and care during this challenging time were invaluable, and I am forever grateful for your expertise and support. Thank you for keeping me informed with regular updates and adorable photos. I travel a lot for business so it always heartwarming to get updates on my baby! It was evident that Millie was having a fantastic time with you, enjoying walks, playtime, and plenty of affection. Your dedication to her well-being and happiness was truly remarkable. Ethan, I cannot thank you enough for the exceptional care you provided to Millie. Your expertise, attentiveness, and genuine love for dogs make you an outstanding dog sitter. I would highly recommend you to anyone. Millie and I are forever grateful, and we look forward to entrusting her care to you again in the future.”
