Melina is WONDERFUL! She came in 3 days this week and each day did an INCREDIBLE JOB! She keeps me and my boyfriend super up to date with communication, videos, and pictures ❤️ If I have any questions, Melina responds immediately. And she follows any requests for Ivy (our pup) closely. Looking forward to having Melina come back to watch Ivy soon☺️

About: I've been watching critters of all shapes and sizes for over 20 years: cats, dogs, rabbits, parrots, chickens to name a few. I'm comfortable with administering medications (oral, eye, topical) I'm incredibly attentive to the specific care your furry family member needs and very communicative so I can provide the best care possible. I've recently returned to school online full-time, so I'm excited that the flexible schedule allows me to spend more time with your pet. I generally have open availability and can work with varying routines that work best for you and your furry family member. I offer petsitting in your home, so that your pet can feel comfortable in familiar environs. I love how this allows me to meld into your pet's routine and keep them happy! I provide drop-in and overnight services and am flexible to alternate between the two.

About: I’ve had dogs in my family my entire life, peaking at seven jack russell terriers and one yellow lab as a child! In my adult life I’ve been taking care of my cat, Solar for the past four years! I’m currently transitioning between jobs and am usually available! I’ll be updating my availability when I next find work, but for the time being I have more or less unlimited availability, just need to get home to care for my own cat, Solar and maybe get a surf or two in! I always clean up after any dogs I walk and can keep any space that I’m watching over clean and tidy in the case of pet or house sitting. I know that cats love consistency and can do my best to fit their current schedule of comfort. I am also able to be friendly and firm with dogs so that they stay in a safe and happy environment for their whole walk. As a kid I had to keep a lot of Jack Russell’s out of trouble, so I can keep them on a leash and out of conflicts with humans or other dogs!

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!

About: I love little dogs! I enjoy connecting with them and getting to know their quirky little personalities. I grew up with a toy poodle and helped with my neighbors' dogs for years - walking them, hanging out with them during the day, and even keeping them for a night or a week. For the past 4 years I've also had a sweet mini aussiedoodle, Murphy. If you're a first time Rover user, get $20 off your booking with me! Use this code: PARKERD42569 I work part-time and mostly from home, and have a lot of flexibility right now. I can do one-time gigs and would love to build ongoing relationships! - BOARDING includes roughly 24 hours of doggy care and I am flexible about start and end time. If you need longer than 24 hours, an extended care fee will apply. If you need less, ask me about negotiating price. - DAY CARE can be 8-5, or 4-10, or any stretch between 8am and 11pm. - DROP INs and WALKS can be anytime between 9am and 9pm. Please let me know if your dog has separation anxiety or can be left alone briefly if I needed to run out (for example, the laundry is on the ground floor of my building). I give doggos a lot of personalized attention and try to anticipate their needs. I'm good at reading the vibe and knowing if a dog needs more or less of something. I am very safety conscious and will follow whatever guidance you offer, and communicate with you as much as you like!

About: Hi there! I have experience working at a doggie daycare, as a dog walker, at an animal shelter, and a natural raw food pet store. I value positive reinforcement training. I've worked alongside professional dog trainers modifying reactivity, leash pulling, counter surfing, barking, and teaching basic commands (sit, touch, spin etc.) using treats and positive attitude. I’ve provided various enrichment activities such as homemade puzzle boxes, lick mats, kongs, nyla bones, marrow bones and frozen treats. I’ve worked with various ages, sizes, and abilities. I have experience administering medication (oral, eye, topical). I have 3 cats and a fish of my own with my partner. I love working with other critters too (bunnies, rats, Guinea pigs) . I'm incredibly fascinated with animal psychology and behavioral health as well. I’m available Monday- Friday and some weekends. I'm open to overnights and traveling. I prefer reoccurring clients to develop a bond and trust. I also offer transportation for field trips such as hikes & the beach: My 3 cats are indoor only, I have successfully introduced them using a slow and comfortable pace. They are fed wet food with extra freeze-dried toppers, morsels, and salmon oil. I provide fresh water and daily litterbox cleanings. I also frequently switch enrichment activities like toys, lickmats, and puzzles.

About: I've had dogs my whole life - from high to low energy we've had every type and I love them all. I'm happy to go on long walks or hikes with you pup and/or take them to the beach if they love the water. I'm currently pursuing a masters at Berkeley so I have lots of free time to check in or walk your pup. Mid day check-ins/walks are especially accessible! I plan to keep your pet safe by abiding by whatever guidelines you set for your dog. I have lots of experience, but will ultimately defer to you because you know your pup the best.

We have had Shanley come over for drop in visits regularly over the last few weeks. She has been wonderful with Misty, trusted, respectful and communicative. Her first visit, we had a bit of a snafu (completely our fault), and she handled it with grace and calmness (she was way more calm than me and I appreciated that!). We are so thankful we found her and we welcome her to “Team Misty!”

Christine is hands down the best pet sitter we’ve had so far! Not only was she extremely knowledgeable, professional and enthusiastic, but she also went above and beyond taking care of our cat for a bit over a week. She took our instructions very seriously and ensured that our kitty had the best care possible during our absence. We even got to Facetime a bit since we missed our cat so much. Christine also stopped by an extra time to give Knives, our cat, a little extra love, which wasn’t necessary but SO appreciated. Would definitely recommend Christine for any of your pet needs if you’re in the Oakland or East Bay - she was super responsive as well with both me (through the app) and my partner through text, which made it all the easier. Our cat can be sassy too and it seems like she’s smitten over the course of a week! Overall could not ask for a better sitter and we will 100% be booking with her when we go out of town again.

She was super communicative and sent pictures each day without prompt. I felt so comfortable and secure leaving our cats with her and we will absolutely be seeking her services again!

About: 🐾💖 🐾 Hi, I’m Lee—a lifelong dog lover based in Oakland, CA. My home is designed with small dogs (≤15 lbs) in mind, featuring cozy lounging spots and a large, secure backyard with new turf—perfect for play and sunbathing. As a remote worker, I'm home most of the day and ensure dogs are never left alone for long; if I step out for more than an hour, a trusted local friend comes over to care for the pups. 🐕 Dogs 🐕 in my care are treated like family—they’re welcome on the furniture, receive tons of love, and enjoy a tailored experience that includes playtime, gentle walks, enrichment activities, or plenty of couch snuggles. 🌈 I take extra pride in working with shy, senior, and special-needs pups, making sure every dog feels safe, seen, and spoiled. 🏡 A Typical Day in My Care 🏡 Each day begins with attentive potty breaks and a gentle introduction to the fresh turf, allowing pups to explore at their own pace. After a nourishing breakfast, we engage in a balanced mix of interactive play, affectionate cuddles, and serene indoor relaxation. Dogs are encouraged to bask in the sun, frolic with toys, or curl up on the couch with me and my two friendly senior resident pups, Carl and Midge. 📅 Throughout the day, I maintain a structured routine that includes regular potty breaks, stimulating backyard activities, leisurely neighborhood walks, and ample downtime. This thoughtful schedule ensures a calm and enjoyable atmosphere, tailored to each dog's individual needs. 🌙💤 As evening approaches, we wind down with more outdoor time, gentle bonding on the couch, and a peaceful night, ensuring every pup feels secure and cherished. 🩺 Experience with Special-Needs Pups 🩺 I have extensive experience caring for dogs with various special needs, including:​ - Medication Administration: Both oral and injectable medications. - Blindness & Deafness: Adapting communication and environment for comfort. - Diabetes: Monitoring and managing dietary needs and insulin schedules. - Incontinence: Providing regular potty breaks and maintaining hygiene. - Heart Failure: Observing for symptoms and ensuring a low-stress environment.​ ⭐ I approach each pup with patience, empathy, and a commitment to their well-being, ensuring they receive the personalized care they deserve. 🐾 Pet care is an integral part of my daily routine. As a remote worker, I'm home most of the time, which allows me to provide constant care and attention to the dogs in my care. Each day begins with potty breaks and a calm introduction to the outdoor space, followed by breakfast and a mix of interactive play, walks, and cozy moments on the couch. I prioritize structure, ensuring there are regular potty breaks, enrichment activities, and downtime for every pup, whether they're playful or need a more relaxed pace. With two resident senior pups, Carl and Midge, I incorporate bonding time with them as well, creating a peaceful, inclusive environment. I also make sure special-needs pups, including those with medications or other health concerns, are carefully monitored and receive the personalized attention they need throughout the day. This routine ensures that every dog feels loved, safe, and relaxed, fitting seamlessly into my work-from-home lifestyle. ❤️ 🏠❤️ At my home, I prioritize safety and trust by creating a secure environment where dogs feel comfortable and cared for. My backyard is fully enclosed with new turf, providing a safe space for pups to play and relax. Inside, dogs have access to cozy lounging spots and plenty of places to rest. I maintain a structured routine with regular potty breaks, interactive play, and walks to ensure each dog’s needs are met. For dogs with special needs or medical requirements, I’m experienced with administering medications and providing additional care to make them feel secure and comfortable. Trust is crucial, so I make sure to communicate openly with pet parents and maintain consistency in the care I provide. I closely supervise all interactions to ensure safety, whether with my own resident dogs or pups in my care. If I need to step out, a trusted friend comes over to ensure the dogs are never left alone for long. Whether in my home or a client’s, I maintain a calm, secure, and enriching environment where every dog feels loved and protected.

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!

Christine is hands down the best pet sitter we’ve had so far! Not only was she extremely knowledgeable, professional and enthusiastic, but she also went above and beyond taking care of our cat for a bit over a week. She took our instructions very seriously and ensured that our kitty had the best care possible during our absence. We even got to Facetime a bit since we missed our cat so much. Christine also stopped by an extra time to give Knives, our cat, a little extra love, which wasn’t necessary but SO appreciated. Would definitely recommend Christine for any of your pet needs if you’re in the Oakland or East Bay - she was super responsive as well with both me (through the app) and my partner through text, which made it all the easier. Our cat can be sassy too and it seems like she’s smitten over the course of a week! Overall could not ask for a better sitter and we will 100% be booking with her when we go out of town again.

Lisa was AMAZING!!!! She is so clearly a cat lover and went above and beyond to take care of our two cats. She spent extra time with them each day to make sure they got plenty of love and attention. She was super communicative and sent pictures each day without prompt. I felt so comfortable and secure leaving our cats with her and we will absolutely be seeking her services again!

I couldn’t be more grateful for Lee! She takes incredible care of my senior chihuahua, Nicco, and he absolutely adores her. Every time I pick him up, he’s so happy and content. Lee’s space is not only safe but also wonderfully pet-friendly, which gives me peace of mind knowing that Nicco is in the best hands. Thank you, Lee, for always going above and beyond!

I felt comfortable with Stephan taking care of my dog. He was very responsive and loved my dog (which I find to be very important) My puppy also seemed to respond to him well which makes my heart smile Thank you so much Stephan!!
