About: My passion for animal care started early, and I’ve been dedicated to looking after cats, dogs, and neighbors' or friends' pets since I was 16. Over the years, I've built a wealth of hands-on experience across all life stages—from bouncy puppies to wise seniors, including specialized care for rescue and deaf dogs. Whether it's feeding, playtime, daily walks, or giving dogs a thorough bath, I pride myself on tuning into every pet's unique communication style and treating them with patience, love, and attentive care. My love for animals isn’t just a pastime—it’s a lifelong passion that shapes how I connect with every pet I meet.I'm a full-time dog walker and cat whisperer! Your pet’s safety, security, and well-being are my absolute top priorities. Whether we're out on a neighborhood walk or hiking at a park, I maintain a watchful, proactive approach to keep pets secure and out of harm's way. I’m deeply attentive to each animal’s unique boundaries, physical needs, and comfort levels—from handling every age group with care to accommodating specific communication styles like those of rescue or deaf dogs. You can count on me to provide a calm, secure, and genuinely loving environment so you can have complete peace of mind while you're away.

About: I’ve been around dogs my whole life and genuinely love caring for them. I have a 8 year old Miniature Pinscher, Norman, who has taught me a lot about patience, routines, and making dogs feel safe and comfortable in their own way. (I don’t have him with me full time) I’m comfortable with dogs of different personalities and energy levels, and I’m happy to follow your pup’s usual routine, whether that means long walks, playtime, plenty of cuddles, or simply keeping them company. I’ll treat your dog like my own and keep you updated while you’re away. I am home in the morning and evenings on the weekdays. I am free to take your pets out on walks every couple hours or as needed. I prioritize safety and trust by maintaining a clean, secure environment for pets. I ensure their routines are followed, provide plenty of playtime and affection, and always keep a close eye on them to prevent any accidents. Your pets will feel comfortable and cared for in my home or yours. I have a fenced in yard as well

About: Greetings! I'm Patrick. I've done a bunch of pet and house sitting on another platform, as well as for family, friends and acquaintances, besides having my own pets or sharing them with past partners. I used to practice massage therapy and reiki. I bring a similar intention to handling pets that I brought to responding to clients needs. I'd like to do part-time pet care in the East Bay, with some availability to housesit for longer sits around the full Bay Area. I can be more spontaneous for pet care near Oakland depending upon the timing. For longer resident sits please try to give me a week or two notice with a request. For short notice I’ll see what works. What an honor it is to care for people's homes and pets! I feel excited to transition my pet and house-sitting to this platform. Thanks for your consideration. I enjoy caring for pets and homes. I appreciate the trust-building process, staying accountable and growing as a person, all which these experiences foster. I intend to be a respectful well-communicating sitter and to provide a safe fun atmosphere for your pets. I appreciate receiving questions and feedback during a video chat or in person meet and greet where we get to know each other.

About: I have taken care of friends and neighbors pets since I was a kid and love to have a fur friend around. Happy to take them out and walk and explore nature. I like to run and hike and bike and a companion on the way is a bonus. They will be greeted with calm warmth and care. I work on trips and when I am home I am home and can be flexible about where I work. This allows me to be present to the pets I care for and to adjust to their needs. I will probably have a run or workout at some point in the day or meet a friend but am quite present. I have a fenced backyard and live by myself in a peaceful quiet space. I enjoy a walk with a fur friend to get out and move and consider it a bonus to have a buddy along.

About: Rover is an amazing thing in my family's life. Our whole household REALLY LOVES DOGS. We love all the different dog personalities we get to know. We genuinely appreciate pet families trusting us to care for their pet(s). Boarding is our most used and preferred service of the Tree House. We have many regular clients who use our Boarding and Doggy Day Care services. We love all sizes of dogs and the full range of dog personalities. We host up to 3 guest dogs at a time and are very conscientious of the dogs we host and how they will interact. Therefore, if your dog does not do well with other dogs, our house may not be a great fit for your pet. We get requests for exclusive bookings, and where we can accommodate these requests, we will. ****price for exclusive bookings is 2X our service rate, boarding or day care slot**** We require all new clients to do a meet-&-greet, so we can only accommodate last-minute new clients if we get a solid referral from another sitter, you are a friend of the family, or one of our regular clients referred you. We have found our guests do much better when they have been here and sniffed about before their stay. Your dog(s) will be loved and treated with the utmost respect by every member of our household and any other guests. Our home is very relaxed, and our backyard is a dog paradise with lots of shade and different areas for dogs to claim their own space. We always have a crew of dogs, so your dog will have plenty of stimulation and exercise while at our home. We work from home and are here nearly all the time. Pickup and drop-off times are flexible—the key is communication and consideration—fees may apply where either is lacking. The yard has plenty of room for guests to stretch it out and find their own space. We are happy to accommodate crating, and problem children will have some sort of time out until they can ground and be good guests. We are not disciplinarians but are pretty good at setting boundaries thru timeouts and rewards.

About: I am new to the Bay Area and while I am working on a certification I am hoping to hang with some pets. I can’t actually think of a more fun way of earning money. I was raised with dog and cats of all kinds. I have had ones with health issues and ones that need LOTS of exercise. My current dog needs lots of walks, which I really enjoy. I grew up with a few different pups, including one with seizures and one with diabetes. I’m familiar with having to give reluctant pets meds and shots. I have a senior cat currently and am happy to sit and pet. Im looking forward to caring for your pet as if it were my own. I am new to the area due to my husband being transferred with the Coast Guard to the area. I currently have a normal 9 to 5 and looking to supplement my income. I love dogs and cats so much I cant think of a better part time gig. I am adaptable and an happy to care for your pet in any way they need. Keeping them on a normal schedule can be important and I understand that. I particularly love taking dogs on walks, especially in the nice FL weather (which may be the evenings after the sun sets in the summer).

About: Through having dogs myself, dog walking, and taking care of friends dogs for the past 9 years I have experience sitting, walking, and playing with dogs. In the past year I have adopted the sweetest dog named Cariño, a 35 pound terrier mix, and have cared for them through their puppy stages and now into adulthood! I primarily have experience with dogs weighing 10-60 pounds and dogs of all ages. I'm good at taking control of a situation and can also understand when a dog is scared, upset, or just needs a break. I have a car so I can come to you and live walking distance from Lake Merritt. I'm currently working part-time and have plenty of time to go on hikes, walks, or check in on your pup! I am flexible during weekdays and am unavailable on weekends currently. I have experience raising my own currently one and a half year dog. I can easily crate your dog and leave them well-rested. I do not let dogs go outside unleashed unless there are specific instructions to do so. I work part-time and have a flexible schedule so I am happy to make things work with your pet needs whether it's morning, middle of the day, or early evenings. I am not accepting pets in my home because we have a dog and a cat who are a bit sensitive to other pet friends.

About: I had a dog for 15 years and a cat for 2 years, giving me experience with pets at all stages of life. They are very special and I have a deep passion for caretaking, one that extends to your pets! I can also administer medications if needed. I am a student at UCSF on summer break. I have availability most days—weekdays and weekends, just need a few days notice! I am also a night owl so I can watch your pets well into the evenings! I have a fenced backyard and live in a dog-friendly neighborhood. I love going on long walks around here solo, and a pet companion would make that even better! For cats, I can also take them on walks (if they’re those types of cats haha) or can just stay inside and play with toys.

Mei is a wonderful cat sitter! She took excellent care of my two cats while I was traveling. She provided detailed updates about how they were doing and communicated regularly throughout each drop-in visit. I was able to fully enjoy my vacation, completely stress-free, knowing my babies were in such caring and capable hands. I’m extremely happy with Mei and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, attentive, and caring person to look after their fur babies. I would absolutely book her again!

We couldn’t be happier with the care and attention our dog Oliver received! Leo went above and beyond to make sure our pup was happy, safe, and well cared for. It was such a relief knowing our dog was in such wonderful hands while we were away. Leo was dependable, caring, communicative, and clearly has a genuine love for animals. He treated our dog like his own and kept us updated, sent us photos we felt were from a professional photographer - this gave us complete peace of mind and filled our hearts with joy. We highly recommend Leo to anyone looking for a trustworthy, responsible, and truly fantastic dog walker. We will absolutely be booking with him again! 🐾❤️
