Pet Sitting & Drop Ins in Foothill Square, Oakland, CA

“Angelique is the BEST!!! I have an elderly 14 year old Pitmix with high dietary supplement and high care needs. My character-judgung do g took to ger instantly with her loving animal vibe. She was loving, patient and took pics with sweet notes to settle any of my anxiousness about leaving her. She also took amazing care of my shy cat and my mouse. And she did small chores for a minimal fee. Angelique is dependable and when I got home I was so impressed on how she maintained my home and furbabies. We would hire her again as we would look no further!!! Thanks , Angelique 😍🤩”

About: First and foremost we have the best treats and home cooked food. The mystery machine is hosted by none other than Dumbledore himself (a sweet Great Dane who wanted to maintain his Scooby Doo persona) I am a healthcare professional working in emergency and critical care who always wished I was taking care of animals more than people. I am always home, we just moved into a large home with a big backyard in the Oakland Hills and decided to host some fur babies for fun and play time with our own big baby =) we love couch cuddles and beach trips .. your loved one will rarely be this spoiled =) It is our number one priority and our life centers around our children, and thus, your children. We've adjusted to being parents to a stage 5 Great Dane clinger. We have a fenced yard and lots of indoor space to adjust to any need. Just tell us what your pet needs and it can be accommodated.

“Jiaji was a fantastic sitter for our two kittens (5-6 months old)! She is very communicative and thorough in her visits and care notes. She went above and beyond to give added care when the kittens needed a bit more attention and some medication application. She also took very good care of our home. Highly recommend!”

About: With 16 years of hands-on experience, I bring a calm, confident energy that pets (and their humans!) trust. I’m currently caring for my own sweet 15-year-old senior pup, so I’m especially tuned in to the needs of older pets—whether it’s medication, slow strolls, or just a little extra TLC. I’ve seen it all, from wiggly puppies to wise old souls, and I treat every pet like they’re family. My goal? To make tails wag and hearts feel at ease. Pet care fits naturally into my routine—I work from home and have a flexible schedule, so I’m available during the day for walks, check-ins, or cuddle breaks. Whether it’s a midday stroll or a bit of playtime to break up the day, I love incorporating pet care into my everyday rhythm. It keeps me moving, smiling, and surrounded by furry joy—what could be better? In my home, pets are treated like part of the family! I have a sweet senior dog who’s very friendly and laid-back, so visiting pets get a calm, welcoming vibe. I’ve got a fenced-in backyard for safe outdoor time, and I’m happy to follow whatever routine makes your pet feel most comfortable—whether that means crate time, couch time, or anything in between. In clients' homes, I aim to keep their pet’s routine consistent and stress-free, with lots of love, attention, and belly rubs!

About: Hi, Meghan here, I have always been a dog-lover, and currently have a lovable fluffy husky. I live in Oakland with my mom, a fellow dog-lover! I allow our furry friends on the couch, but can also work on furniture-boundaries if your pooch isn't allowed on furniture at your own home. I work from home, so I'll be home most of the day during the weekdays. The longest your pup will be home alone (with my pups) is around 5 hours. I am comfortable with big dogs. I can give medications, and can brush your pooch as well! Here's a little about us: Meghan has been a dog-lover since birth. She grew up with dogs of all shapes and sizes. Treesa loves pups of all sizes! Meet my pets: Just the dogs! About my yard We have a fenced backyard. My experience administering medication We are comfortable administering oral medication. **We do have a Potty Clause. We understand accidents happen, and are very forgiving, as pups are often excited and can't help themselves at first. However, we have occasionally had extreme repeat offenders. We take dogs on the basis that they are potty trained. If we feel there are an excessive number of indoor incidents, we will let you know, and ask for a $10 additional fee (per week, or fraction thereof), to cover the cost of laundry and cleaning supplies.** Thanks! I work from home so your pup will hang out with me and Winston at home, join us on walks, and get to spend the day with us! I have a fenced yard. Security gate at my back door means fresh air without escape opportunity. We're working on installing a dog door, so that should happen later this year!

“I always have a piece of mind when I travel knowing Vanessa will check in on my cat Snorri. The visit notes and photos are especially thoughtful. Overall very happy with her care!”

About: What can I say, I love dogs and I adore my pack. For the past 15+ years, I’ve worked with all kinds of dogs. From a professional doggy daycare environment to settings that are more immediate bonding with dogs, I’ve done it all. If you need someone to help walk or watch your pup, you can bet I’ll do it with love and high energy. I currently have two dogs of my own. Luna and Canella, and they are like yin and yang. Both sweet girls, but one will give you a run for your money. The other, you’d be begging her to make you walk. 😂 One knows a bunch of fun little tricks, the other is too nervous to get past “shake”. But that’s just how my girls are. I have a lot of free time. So I figured, fill it with something I enjoy, which is hanging out with a group of dogs. I love mine, but let me love yours too. I tend to keep my clients dogs close to me when I’m working with them. So where I go, that dog does as well. I also send video and picture updates whenever we’re doing something different in the day. One of my dogs loves to make new doggy friends, the other just hides in crate unless it’s a smaller dog.

About: Hi there! I’m an animal lover with a few pets of my own, and I’d love to be your neighbor and help care for your furry family members. I’m experienced with reactive dogs who need their space, playful puppies full of energy, and older pups who prefer a calm day of walks and relaxation. Whether you’re working hard, taking a much-needed break, or heading out for an escape, I’d love to keep your pet safe, happy, and clean while you’re away. I currently work part-time in the evenings and have free time during the weekdays (8am–2pm). Since I’m often out and about in the East Bay, I’d love to spend some of that time helping out furry friends and neighbors. Whether it’s a walk, some playtime, or a quick break in the day, I’m happy to provide care and companionship for your pets—while adding a few extra steps to my own routine! Your dog’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities—I pay close attention to their needs, keep a steady pace that matches their energy, and make sure every outing is secure and enjoyable. Whether it’s a quick potty break or some extra exercise, I’ll treat your pet like my own.

“Tina was amazing at making Maple feel comfortable and quickly built rapport with her. She followed my instructions and was able to give the most care to Maple.”

“Jason was completely reliable. We trusted him to feed both our cats twice a day, as well as clean the litter box. He followed our instructions and was very respectful and friendly. He even washed the dirty food bowls! We loved getting the updates and photos. Both our cats took to him—our kitten, Stella, totally adored him and looked forward to his visits. What more can you ask for? We’ll be booking him again!”

“Marlene just did the first drop in visit for our two dogs. She was very communicative, punctual, and made sure to secure the house when she left. Plus it was a very rainy day, and she got the dogs all cleaned up when they came in from the yard. Glad we found a reliable person.”

“Nayeli was a life saver! We had to find a Rover during our Spring Break cancellation and Nayeli rose to the occasion. She was very communicative, thorough and loving with our fur babies. When a hiccup with our travels came up, Nayeli was more than willing to stop by again after the job was completed. I really appreciated her notes and photos. I would love to hire Nayeli again!”

About: I had my own very cherished Mini Pinscher Leah that passed away a few years ago. Since then, I’ve really missed the companionship of pets but am not yet ready for a commitment after that grief. I cat sit for my sister regularly, and am looking to be of help to any families/pet owners in my local community whose pets I can treat with care and respect. I am available to walk any dogs after work ends at 6 PM and am happy to have any pets board with me on the weekends! I have a fenced yard and no pets or babies in my home, just myself and two adult roommates. I’m ready to customize my house to be safe and suited for any pet that will be boarding here, and can walk dogs in my neighborhood at any time.

“We appreciate Daria taking care of our kitty while we were away. She played with, fed, and looked after our cat, sending cute pictures and even short videos (which was really nice) every day. Our kitty has definitely enjoyed her time with Daria.”
