About: With 10+ years of animal care experience — including 4 years as a veterinary assistant — I’m especially experienced with seniors, anxious or shy pets, and those needing medications or extra TLC. I’m reliable, calm under pressure, and treat every pet like my own. Providing care for pets fits naturally into my lifestyle — my schedule is intentionally flexible so I can be available when your pets need me most. Whether you need help during long workdays, weekend trips, or last-minute schedule changes, I’m happy to accommodate a wide range of needs. Let me know what your pet’s routine looks like — I’ll do my best to match it, so they feel safe, loved, and right at home while you’re away. Within the client's home, I do everything I can to make their pets feel safe, seen, and loved. I know how important it is to maintain their routine and environment, especially for pets who thrive on familiarity. I take time to build trust, go at their pace, and make sure they feel comfortable with me in their space. Whether it’s a quick drop-in, extended visit, or overnight stay, I’m respectful of both your home and your pet’s boundaries. I always follow instructions carefully, provide updates along the way, and make sure your pet is happy, secure, and well cared for while you’re away. For the health and safety of your pet, I kindly ask that clients provide their own grooming tools — including brushes, combs, nail clippers, styptic powder, and any other essentials your pet is familiar with. Using your pet’s personal tools helps prevent the spread of bacteria, and ensures a safe, and hygienic experience. Your pet’s safety and your peace of mind are always my top priorities.

About: Have you ever wanted your dog to have the comfort of a 5-Star vacation experience with the trust of an experienced pup-lover right in your community? I’ve set up my ADU to be your dog’s private BnB oasis! It’s a totally separate space (just like a BnB), therefore your pet would have no interaction with my dogs. Your dog’s climate-controlled space is equipped with everything needed to make them comfortable during their stay - beds, toys, blankets, and backyard. I work from home, so I’m able to spend plenty of time with them and do whatever is needed for them to have a comfortable home away from home❤️ A little about me: Hi! My name is Sydney and I’ve had dogs my whole life. I have experience caring for cats (including medication administration) and I have also fostered over 40 dogs in my home, so I have experience with all ages and breeds ❤️ As mentioned, your pet would have their own space separate from my dogs, but I do have two small rescue pups! I have one senior 12-pound girl named Mooncake and a 17-pound boy named Toast and they are the loves of my life!! I love pet-sitting! I’m very responsible, dependable, and can be flexible to meet your dog’s specific needs. Whether it’s dog-sitting, dog walking pr cat care, I would love to meet your pet and provide exercise and a fun, loving place to stay while you’re gone! Send me a message with a little more info about you and your bestie and we can set up a time to meet. Can’t wait to meet you! :) I work from home, so I can be somewhat flexible with timing for cat care, dogstting and dog walks! I prefer walking in the evening before it gets dark but let me know your ideal timing and we can work around it. For cat care and walking, I would want to know more about your specific pet but also how to enter the home safely to ensure your pet doesn’t escape as I come in.

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 4 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, currently $150/night 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 grew up with a menagerie of animals: dogs to pigeons to squirrels. I am drawn to large and giant breed dogs. My cane corso recently passed away, leaving 2 cats behind. I would enjoy caring for your pack. I will treat them as my own. I work a hybrid schedule, so I am at home part time and away part time. Therefore, I have flexibility to play with your pups! I offer pet sitting in your home. However, I have a fenced-in yard in case of emergencies. I am not able to care for pets in my home, due to my indoor cats.

About: I grew up with dogs and currently have my own dog. He’s a four year-old mini golden doodle named Riley. We are active and frequently go on hikes, to the park, and to the beach on the weekends. I also have a backyard where the dogs can play. If your dog needs more than just neighborhood walks, I’ve got you covered! I’m experienced in caring for puppies and managing them so that they don’t get into trouble. I also have a lot of experience administering medication since my dog is on several meds for some of his health issues. I can provide enrichment for your dog if needed, since my dog loves sniffing games, lick mats, and trick training. I absolutely adore dogs and will treat your dog as he/she were my own! I’m available for boarding on weekends and potentially sometimes during the week, if your dog is OK with being left alone for longer stretches of time. I have a hybrid work schedule so I go into the office three days a week and I work from home two days a week (usually Mondays and Fridays). I have a fenced-in yard for the dogs to play. If your dog needs to be crated when left alone, I have a crate that can be used. I also have a Furbo dog camera where I can keep an eye on the dogs while I’m gone. If your dog is comfortable and safe not being in a crate when left alone, I can accommodate that.

“Christina is an amazing pet sitter. My huge dog is usually skeptical of new people but immediately liked her, as did I. She sent updates, communicated extremely well throughout the booking and sitting process, and followed all instructions. She went above and beyond and left everything very neatly. I would definitely recommend Christina. She's a natural with dogs, trustworthy, reliable and will put your mind at ease when you have to leave your furry friends for a little while.”

About: I’ve had dogs my entire life and have always been passionate about animal care. During my undergraduate studies I was on the pre-veterinary track and volunteered with local animal shelters and veterinary clinics to gain hands-on experience working with dogs of different breeds, sizes, and temperaments. I’m comfortable with energetic puppies, shy dogs, and dogs that need a little extra patience. I’m attentive, reliable, and happy to provide updates and photos so you know your dog is safe and happy. I currently offer dog walking and drop-in visits and specialize in dog care. Caring for animals is something I genuinely enjoy, so pet visits fit naturally into my routine. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide reliable walks and drop-ins during the week, especially during the daytime hours when many dogs need a break and some attention. Safety and trust are very important to me when caring for someone else’s pet. Having grown up with dogs and volunteered in animal shelters and veterinary clinics while on the pre-vet track, I’m comfortable working with dogs of different sizes, breeds, and temperaments. During visits I pay close attention to a dog’s behavior, environment, and any specific instructions from the owner. I make sure dogs are securely leashed on walks, gates and doors are properly closed, and pets are supervised throughout the visit. I’m happy to follow feeding schedules, administer basic medications if needed, and provide updates and photos so owners know their dog is safe and doing well.

About: Growing up surrounded by pets of all sizes and species, I've developed a deep understanding of each animal's unique needs. My lifelong love for animals stems from knowing they're truly family members who give us their whole hearts. I'm experienced in administering medications (pills, liquids, and injections) and have experience and am comfortable providing specialized care for pets in recovery. Whether your furry, feathered, or scaled family member needs basic care/companionship, medical attention, or just a walk to get some exercise, I'm here to give them the same love and attention they'd receive from you. Let me give you complete peace of mind while you're away—your pets will be in caring, capable hands! Whether you need someone to stop by or look after your house, I am available 7 days a week. Please provide at least 1 day notice to confirm availability. Since I rent my home I am only able to come to you! I currently reside in Oakland, so I am open and available to any needs within the area.

“Megan did such an amazing job taking care of our pup for us. It is obvious that she LOVES dogs, and our dog LOVED her. She sent us lots of pictures and videos and went completely above and beyond what was expected. We are so grateful and will definitely ask Megan to take care of our pup again, especially since I’m pretty sure our dog misses her already. Thank you so much, Megan!”

About: In 2012 my mother started a dog boarding business out of her own home. I was this businesses number #1 (and in a lot of ways only) Employee. We watched an average of 4 dogs a day not including the dogs me and my mother had that were our own and the fosters we were taking care of as well. We closed down the business in 2021 when we moved and now that I have my own place I'm looking to work with pets again (dogs and cats!). I can not board but I can still do walks and sitting. I'd love to meet and get to know your pets. I work weekends so I am not going to be available most Saturdays and Sundays before 6pm. On the flip side I am completely open on any weekday for walking or sitting. I can make any of those days work with your schedule. I won't be able to take care of your pet in my home but I can do whatever is needed of me if I were to take care of your pet in your home. Wether that's crating, specific feeding schedules or making food from provided ingredients, routines for outside and potty time. I want to make your pets experience as close as it I can do your ideal.

About: Lifelong animal lover with years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all sizes—from energetic Rat Terriers to strong and loyal Rottweilers! I’ve been caring for dogs since I was 8, including feeding, walking, bathing, administering medicine, and even helping raise puppies. I’ve raised my dogs from puppies to seniors, caring for them lovingly throughout their lives. I also have experience with cats and small pets like hamsters! Since I don’t have pets of my own right now, I’d love to give your furry friend all the love and care they deserve—just like family. Plus, I love taking walks, so your pup will get plenty of exercise and attention! I work the graveyard shift at the airport, so I have plenty of availability during the day! I’m usually free after 9-10 AM for walks, drop-ins, and pet sitting. My schedule is super flexible, and I’m also happy to take dogs on relaxing evening walks around 6-7 PM. Whether your pup needs a midday stroll, a cuddle buddy while you’re away, or a late-night walk, I’ve got you covered! Safety and trust are my top priorities when caring for pets. I always ensure they are comfortable, secure, and well-supervised, whether in my home or a client’s. I follow any specific instructions given by pet parents, including feeding schedules, medication, and exercise needs. On walks, I use secure leashes and keep a close eye on surroundings to ensure their safety. In clients’ homes, I respect their space by keeping things clean and tidy while giving their pets the love and care they deserve. My goal is to create a safe, loving environment so both pets and their owners feel at ease!

About: Dogs have been in my life since I was a kid, and caring for them has always come naturally to me. Over the years, I’ve had the joy of looking after dogs with all kinds of personalities and needs: • Gator, my grandma’s goofy orange lab, who loved carrying giant rocks and playing in the water. • A shar-pei with big “Stanley-from-The-Office” energy, who needed daily walks and, later in life, extra care with meals and medication. • My parents’ pitbull, who I raised from the puppy stage and helped train—my most challenging and rewarding experience! These experiences taught me patience, responsibility, and how to adapt to each dog’s unique needs. I’m reliable, attentive, and genuinely love spending time with dogs (and I think they can tell!). I am currently doing freelance work and studying from home which means If there is WiFi, I am more than happy to stay at a place to be attentive with the pet and also keep them company. When I care for a pet I make sure they feel safe with me in their home, I let them warm up to me and I make sure they know that I am a friend by giving them their favorite treat. I prefer to meet pet before hand. If it’s a dog I avoid other dogs on walks and even if encouraged or recommended, I do not take them to the dog park. When in my care I want them to be safe and I know that can get tricky with other pups so I avoid it all around.

“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 😍🤩”
