House Sitting in Highland, Oakland

“Thanks for taking such great care of Sofia!”

“Dea was extremely professional and knowledgeable of our dog’s needs. She made us feel very comfortable and was a great communicator. We definitely would recommend her services and would love to book with her again.”

“Wow, where do I start? Jana is such a great sitter, super communicative and anticipates my cats and my needs before I even ask them. She really sees my cats unique personalities, and I can tell from the photos she shared that they really trust her. She got my shyer cat who typically hides for days to sit with her on the very first day! She left my house sparkling clean. I trust Jana completely.”

“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!”

“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!”

“Maia truly loves animals and she is very responsible. Our cats were relaxed and happy when we returned. She provided good updates and communication while we were away. We would be happy to have Maia as a catsitter again in the future.”

“Wish I could give more stars. Her attentiveness to all details of our dog Pippi and cats Vincent and Mia. Her caretaking of our animals AND our home. Her communication/pics while we were away - so so so reassuring and heartening. We came home to a happy dog and cats and a spotless house, including fresh sheets, which she'd requested she wanted to do. *sigh* She is a wonderful sitter and person. We are so so grateful!!”

“Giselle did a great job house sitting for our dog over the weekend. Our dog seemed minimally stressed (we just moved and it’s hard for him to be in a new environment), she sent great updates, and left the house clean. Will definitely use her again!”

“Hieremila was an awesome house guest and pet sitter for my dog Tam! I went out of the country for a little over two weeks for my cousin's wedding and was looking for a sitter who could not only keep Tam company throughout the day and at night but also cater to Tam's needs. My dog can be a bit reactive to new guests and other dogs; she is also on daily anxiety medication and can get frustrated when things don't go her way. Hieremila's energy and calm demeanor was very reassuring during our meet and greet so I felt good about leaving Tam with Hieremila. Though I'm sure there was an adjustment period, I appreciate Hieremila keeping in touch and communicating with me throughout my trip about how Tam was doing. Thanks Hieremila for sending both photo and video updates!! I also appreciate Hieremila working to keep Tam's attention as I know she can get pretty distracted out of the house and on walks. Also, thanks for jogging with her and introducing her to new dog friends :) Thanks for also looking after the house and keeping my plants alive! Much appreciated!!”

“Either a quick walk to let the dogs out and stretch their legs, or a week long stay at the house, Janine is excited to provide excellent love, care, attention, and support to all pets. The dogs and cat are super excited to have her come around and becomes very sad when she leaves. I don’t think they notice I’m gone. She sets an alarm to ensure one of my dogs get the meds he needs on time every day while I’m away and posts pictures and updates so that I can see they are well fed and cared for. Added bonus, she’s great with plants and taking care of the house as well as the pets. Whenever I’m working late and know the dogs need to be let out, I know I can always call Janine and she’s more than happy to go the extra mile to not only take them out but play with them and give them love and feed them if I know I’ll be home later.”

“Stephanie sent regular updates and was very easy to maintain contact with. When I came home from my long weekend away, both of my babies (Charlie Barker, 10yo pibble mix; Angrboda, 2yo longhair housecat) were very comfortable and happy. Stephanie stayed over while I was away, and left the house tidy for when I got back. I really appreciated the care she gave my pets, and I loved working with her!”

“Jason watched our dog while we went away for a few nights. He was communicable, shared pictures of our dog, and left the house spotless! Thanks again, Jason, and we look forward to having you watch Berkeley another time!”

“Ethan, you are a dog-sitting superstar! Zoey had the time of her life, and I couldn't be happier with the experience. Your genuine love for dogs shines through in the way you interacted with Zoey, making her feel right at home. The updates and photos you sent during her stay were the highlight of my day, and it was clear that she was having an absolute blast with you. Your laid-back and friendly personality made all the difference, and I can't thank you enough for treating Zoey like family. You're a true dog whisperer, Ethan, and I would highly recommend you to anyone in need of a caring and fun-loving dog sitter. Zoey can't wait to see you again!”

“Marlene did a great job taking care of Pepper after we were out of town for a week! She was punctual and made sure Pepper got plenty of snuggles. She also was very kind about bringing in packages and kept the house really clean and tidy. We will definitely book with her again!”

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

“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!”

“Leo has been a reliable friendly walker for our 50 lb shepherd mix. Easy to communicate with via text with ETAS and photos/summaries of the walks. Our pup always comes back happy and ready for a nap. Thanks Leo!”

“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!”

“Briana is a dog lover! I can't express how much love she has for these animals. Since the moment we met, she expressed how much she loves dogs. She dedicates her time and spoils them like crazy. I've had my dogs stay with her and I can assure you that your dogs will have the best care and a LOT of fun while they stay with Briana. Briana is a well rounded person wanting the best for every single dog she can help out with. Your dog/s will be in good hands!”

“Peter was very sweet and so flexible with our last night arrangements. Luna can be a bit shy and he was very patient with her. Absolutely rebooking in the future”
