Pet Sitting McClymonds

“Patrice is absolutely amazing!! She was attentive, punctual, and had great communication with us while we were on vacation. She even brought over dog-safe bubbles for our dog Elly, which was so cute and thoughtful! We felt completely comfortable and safe leaving Elly in her care.”

About: I provide calm, attentive care with a focus on routine and safety. I understand that every dog is different, and I aim to keep their environment steady and comfortable while you’re away. I enjoy taking dogs on regular walks and occasional hikes, giving them time to explore while keeping things structured and safe. I adjust to each dog’s energy level, whether they prefer an active outing or a more relaxed pace. I’m organized, communicative, and reliable, and I take pride in making pet parents feel comfortable and informed. You can expect clear updates, thoughtful communication, and plenty of photos so you can feel at ease while your dog is in my care.

“Christina was responsive, punctual, and took great care of both my pup and my home, exactly as I expected. She was also incredibly sweet and attentive with my dog. I would happily book her again!”

About: I love taking care of animals, not just dogs. I really enjoy walking and being outside in nature with dogs. I am very patient and happy to train puppies to learn their basic commands like sit and stay. I have taken care of older dogs too. Walking, feeding, overnight sitting, visit and play time. No matter day and night, my schedule is flexible as long as I know ahead of time. I am very careful to follow any owner instructions. I am also very respectful of other's homes and belongings and will treat your pet with care and kindness.

About: Ive lived with dogs for 20 years and know well their needs and how they act. I dogsit and walk dogs and cats from family and friends. Currently ive gotten interested in pursuing working with animals, so im very motivated to learn to handle and care for animals the best way possible. I have a dog like energy and like to play with the dogs too. I feel like a dog. And I want to meet more, they are all very unique and interesting. I do my best to give animals the care and love they deserve. Im a full time student, and part time worker. The times i would be able to walk and care for your pets are: Tuesday after 12, Wednesday morning before 1, and all day Thursday, Friday, and Saturday. When taking care of dogs, i will be home most of the time and take them on walks suiting their energy levels. I have a good sized fenced backyard and front yard for dogs to roam in. When not walking, i will let them do their own thing, giving them frequent attention and many pets. Cats, on the other hand, i will be more careful with regarding closeness. I will slowly let them get used to me when meeting them. When they know me, i will also give them frequent attention and lots of pets.

About: I've trained and cared for 2 dogs, both adopted. Rupert was a Jack Rusell/Corgi with an abusive history. I worked with him until he no longer tried to bite people. Leonard is energetic rat terrier, who can now keep himself in check on command. I've successfully trained both dogs to be sweet and loving, and you can expect me to treat your dogs with the same care and respect. I also worked for Wag for a year. I now have a cat at home and am comfortable with cat care as well, but miss the companionship of dogs, especially in these isolating times. I also love to walk and hike, am in shape, and would love to give your energetic puppy a long walk. I look forward to meeting your furry friend!

“Akiko was extremely responsive and went above and beyond. Our cat clearly loved her too! Akiko exhibited outstanding professionalism and genuine care for our pet. Can’t thank her enough.”

About: I cared for my own senior dog before he passed and understand how important patience, consistency, and routine are for pets. I’m experienced with regular walks, slower-paced outings, feeding routines, potty breaks, and keeping pets calm and comfortable. I’m also attentive to details like medication timing and following owner instructions closely. I’m especially comfortable with adult and senior dogs who benefit from a calm, reliable presence. I currently work on a flexible, self-directed schedule from home while writing a book, which allows me to be available for weekday walks and drop-in visits. I’m especially able to help with midday, afternoon, and early evening visits, and I’m happy to work with pet parents on consistent recurring routines when schedules align. I cared for my own senior dog before he passed (a 17+ year Corgi/Dachshund mix. I miss him so much!), so I understand how important patience, consistency, and attention to detail can be. I’m comfortable with regular walks, slower pacing, feeding routines, and making sure medications are given on time when instructed. In a client’s home, I follow their directions closely, keep pets calm and comfortable, and make sure doors, leashes, food, water, and any special instructions are handled carefully.

About: I have cared for multi-pet households. I have experience feeding, brushing, changing litter, and administering medication. I love animals of all sorts. I am also good with them. I am good at reading their body language, and a lot of them gravitate towards me for whatever reason. They tend to be comfortable with my presence. I am between jobs at the moment, so that means I am somewhat more flexible to work around your schedule. I am a little bit busy with stuff in my personal life, and obviously I have boundaries about when I can and can't be at your home and how much work I want to take on, but the lack of structure in my life right now means we have more options for how I can show up for your pets. I am not in school either at the moment. I am not planning to have this be my only source of income, but for now I am flexible. I can't have pets come to my apartment; it is too small and I don't live on the bottom floor so it would be too much of a hassle to take them outside. I can only come to your home. I am very respectful of boundaries and property when I enter someone else's home. I will pay close attention to your instructions about how to care for your pets and any important other details I need to know. I am responsible and detail oriented, so you can trust me in your home and with your animals. I care that my clients feel secure with me being there while they are away.

About: I’ve taken care of of dogs since I was about 7, I’ve owned two as a child growing up. As an adult I spent most of my years as a single soldier as a mechanic and many of my coworkers need it sitters for a variety of dogs that I was always happy to assist with. Currently I’m a full time student working on my degree in audio design. I typically have classes twice a week with one online. On the weekends I dj Saturday nights 9-1am. I’m a very active person I run 2 miles to the gym at 6am 5 times a week and walk back after my workout. I’m a 16 year military veteran and have a lot of past experience with helping raise, walk and watch a variety of different animals while I was single and on active duty so now that I have more time on my hands it would be a great way to stay active throughout the week! I typically don’t keep animals at my home, but in other people’s home I always like to be introduced to the pet by the owner and have a very in depth overview of the things their animals absolutely do not like. After that I really like to know the owners worries and what things they need in terms of communication to keep them comfortable. As for the interaction I definitely want to be slow with the pet has any sort of anxiety but I love to give them lots of attention weather that’s to play with them talk to them or let them get comfortable by sitting on my lap or holding them.

“This is my first time booking Rover for my 2 kitties and I’m so glad to have gone with Nandini! She’s been super accommodating with my last minute booking and also very caring and sweet to my babies. It didn’t take them long to open up at all ☺️ she’s very reliable and also shared the cutest check-in photos of them. I’d definitely book with her again when I’m out of town!”

“Elin was great for drop in visits with our cat and small conure. We got photos each day and even found a new cat toy that she brought and Colby loves to snuggle with now!”

About: I have work with dogs my entire life, but currently I run a small dog daycare/boarding facility at my home with my husband so our sole focus is caring for our pups and we will happily give your pup all our love and attention! I’m responsible, respectful and very organized which allows us to run a safe and stable home environment for each one of our dogs. I’m available daily for dog walks, daycare and/or boarding. My current small daycare group is about 3-5 regular dogs that come on different weekdays. I’m a firm believer in clear, calm communication with any dog that I am working with and I only use positive reinforcement. My yard and entire property is fully fenced with a 6ft wood privacy fence and there is an extra gate between the front and back yards for extra safety. I’m available pretty much anytime for dog walk or boarding and I currently run a small group dog daycare in my home with my partner between the hours of 7:30am and 5:30pm Monday to Friday. My current group of regulars (that come varying weekdays) includes extremely well socialized dogs of all sizes most of which are between 3 and 6 years old. It’s a great environment for a dog to build social skills and confidence in a calm, well adjusted pack. I live in West Oakland (very close to the Bart station!) and my home and yard are very secure with a 6ft tall redwood fence surrounding the entire property. My yard is pretty large and great for off leash fun as it’s completely safe and secure. I live only with my husband and our two very friendly Cavalier King Charles Spaniel who loves every dog they has ever met. Oliver even has a way of making dogs that are usually not dog friendly play as if they were a puppy - it seems to be his super power! While Opal is just a love who is always ready for fun in the yard or cuddles on the couch.

About: I've grown up with multiple dogs and am now happy to have my own little corgi-terrier named Karl and a black cat named Billie. I'm my friend's go-to pet sitter and have been loving getting to know the other dogs in the neighborhood. I have experience with puppies, senior dogs, large dogs, and reactive dogs. I am available in the evenings on week days and anytime weekends. Please do not book recurring walks if they need to occur earlier on weekdays. I also work as a para educator, so my schedule is flexible, but I will be unavailable for up to 9 hours at a time. Pet care and safety is very important to me. My own dog has very high needs and requires a lot of attention and care, especially on walks, so I completely understand all the peculiar needs of all pets and their individual personalities.

“Thank you so much for taking such great care of my fur baby! I was able to enjoy my vacation knowing he was in get care. I loved getting pictures and a report while away. Thank you, Shirley!!!”

About: I have always been a natural when it comes to animals and have been caring for them since I was very young. I have one fur-baby of my own, and will always treat your fur-baby as if they were mine. I am very respectful of both humans and animals when it comes to care. I am experienced in giving medication, grooming, and enforcing training (ie. no pulling on the leash, no jumping, dog reactivity, ect.) I am very experienced in powerful, reactive dogs - so if your pup requires that extra care and attention on walks, have no fear, as I am always in control when it comes to walking your dog. I work remote for my job which allows me great flexibility with my schedule. I am available throughout the day for walks, check-ins, and boarding. I live in an apartment with my 5 year old dog Nena. She is active, very friendly, and enjoys to play. If I ever leave the apartment for any reason, my dog, and your dog will be separated in separate rooms until I return for added safety.
