Pet Sitting & Drop Ins in Harrington, Oakland

“Anais was awesome with our pups! My gals are old but still peppy, strong, and sometimes over exuberant. She took great care with both but especially Cookie who recently had surgery. I look forward to booking another visit with her again!”

“Kristi is amazing... My four doggos absolutely adored her! She was willing to come to my home last minute for a meet and greet and drop in on the weekend to check on them. Kristi has a special way with animals and is very caring. I received live updates and photos during her visit which left me feeling relieved knowing they were in good hands. 10 stars. I highly recommend her for your pets needs:)”

“Karla is a lovely, kindhearted, and respectful person. Karla has dogs of her own and loves them to death, I never seen anyone have such a love for being with/around animals as karla. Great person to have to walk your dogs if you really care about your pets being cared for.”

“Analicia is a great sitter - communicative, reliable, and thorough - and I feel comfort knowing that my cat is going to be well looked after while I'm away. Thank you Analicia!”

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.

“Kerri is AWESOME!!! I was really worried that my scaredy cats would hide from her the whole time but she obviously has something special going on because they all turned up and interacted with her so I knew they were in great hands. If I ever need a pet sitter again Kerri will be it!! Thanks you”

About: I don’t just care for your pets, I treat them as part of my family. I love spending time with them, whether it’s playing, resting, or giving them attention, and I want your pet to feel loved at all times. I am currently available to care for your pets at any time, whether it’s during the day, night, or weekends. I offer flexible scheduling to fit your needs and ensure your pets receive the care and attention they deserve. I know that the most important thing is pet care, and one of those is their feeding. I can provide food at any necessary time, in case they have a specific feeding schedule, and I can do it without any problem. I will also dedicate enough time for play or bathroom breaks.

“Very appreciative of Maia taking great care of my dog Daisy during her check in! Greatly appreciated the updates and Daisy seemed to get along with Maia from the start.”

“I've been a client of Kye's for seven years. He's watched my two cats, a chaotic crew of chickens, and my 2 naughty dogs (pitty mixes raised on a wolf sanctuary). My partner and I feel so confident and safe leaving our animal family in his care. He provides excellent and prompt updates, he's respectful of our space, and our home is always cleaner than we left it! He also has quite the green thumb and cares for our plant friends as well. 10/10 would recommend!”

“I worked with Hannia when she participated in our youth employment program at Lao Family Community Development, Inc. During her time with us, she successfully completed 100 hours of paid internship. She was placed at Peralta Hacienda Historical Park, where she demonstrated great responsibility and initiative. Her duties included organizing and managing interactive activities for children who attended weekly programs at the park. She also took on the responsibility of preparing, loading, and unloading decorations and food for events, and maintained the cleanliness of the park. She cleaned out the trash and other clean up duties. Hannia has an excellent work ethic; she is currently enrolled at San Jose State University and is eager to gain more experience. Her sweet and kind demeanor, along with her ability to connect well with children and her love for animals. She even has a dog of her ow, make her an ideal candidate for pet caregiver.”

“Laura has been an amazing caregiver for my dog, Reese, time and time again. I’ve hired her multiple times during holidays and work trips, and she always exceeds my expectations. Reese feels comfortable, happy, and completely trusts her. I’m usually nervous about leaving my dog with strangers or at dog hotels, but Laura provides the perfect solution by staying at my home so Reese can remain in his own familiar space. It’s never easy to be away from my dog for an extended period, but knowing Laura’s dedication and love for dogs gives me peace of mind. I highly recommend her!”

“Melina did such a great job drooping in and feeding my elderly cat, Momo. She was prompt with timing and sent lots of pictures and updates. I could tell that Momo really liked her 🥰 would definitely recommend Melina to anyone!!”

“Emma is very calm and connects well with all my three cats. I have one high-energy kitten (needing lots of playtime), one shy/nervous cat (needing patience and calm care), and one more senior long-haired cat (sometimes needing extra help with grooming) She is trustworthy and very reliable. My cats like her a lot, and she spends quality time with them. She goes above and beyond. When my cat was sick, she helped provide necessary oral medicine. You would be lucky to have her as your cat sitter.”

“Sarah was very sweet with our kitty, providing food and play and sending plenty of photos to keep us updated. Our cat really seemed to like her, too. Highly recommended!”

“If you have a dog or two that need lots of love and care, America is definitely your girl. Trust me you won’t regret it, my dog is always super excited to see her! What are you waiting for?!”

About: I enjoy taking dogs on walks and hikes and to dog parks (if allowed). I also have experience with dogs with anxiety. I give medications to my own dog and cat. I would love to provide drop in care to your cat(s) I have flexibility with my job and work from home two days a week. I am available mornings, evenings, and weekends. I am used to taking my dogs on morning and evening walks and mid day walks, weather permitting. NOTE: my 3 dogs are currently out of state. I have a fenced in back yard and my dog friendly cats are currently out of state. My cats are dog friendly but can be separated at my house if needed.

“I got lots of photos of my Luna bear and I felt much better knowing she got some TLC during the day!”

“Cynthia did two drop visits in one day with my sweet Edwyn pup. She kept me updated each step of the way and left my keys in the proper spot. I especially appreciated her photos and walk summaries. Thank you, Cynthia!”

“Emily was absolutely amazing! She looked after my corgi with the best care possible! She was super communicative and just overall and really great person. Harley really enjoyed his time with her! I’ll definitely be coming to her the next time I need my pups to be watched! Thank you again Emily!”

“Shana is a gem! I’m a new cat mom and being away is hard for me, but upon meeting Shana I was instantly put at ease and my cat felt very comfortable around her calming energy. Knowing my little guy was in good hands while I was away made the distance a bit easier. She was communicative with great little recaps and pix that I looked forward to daily 😻”
