House Sitting in Merritt, Oakland

“Ashley is awesome! She came to my home and took care of my brand new puppy, who has quite a demanding schedule. I was a super anxious new puppy mom and she put me at ease, kept me updated, and was super flexible and accommodating. Basil loved her and I felt like he was in great hands. Absolutely recommend!”

Osha K.

“G’La was amazing! She took such great care of Tuna and Finn while we were away for two nights and two and a half days. I felt totally at ease knowing they were in good hands. She was communicative, kind, and clearly loves animals — Tuna and Finn were so calm and happy when we got back. Couldn’t recommend her more. Will definitely be reaching out again!”

“Aman was fantastic! Friendly, calm, communicative, great with anxious dogs, and Yuki adored him. Would book with Aman again in a heartbeat. Thank you so much! ☺️”

Matt S.

“He followed all of my instructions to a T and was a great house guest. I really appreciate how fast he communicated with me throughout the process. My dog normally barks at people and his calm presence was a nice fit to keep Kuta calm.”

Linor V.

“Sasha is so caring, kind, and loving with our animals. She left a super clean house, was extremely communicative, very reliable and so respectful with our home. She is also extremely responsible and goes out of her way to make sure the animals get everything they need—walks, food, and treats—while we are away. I feel so lucky to have our animals in her care. We will definitely work with her again!”

Katherine K.

“Qishu was great with my dog! She has a hard time warming up to new people and Qishu was very patient with her and gave her lots of extra TLC. I got lots of pics and updates so I knew she was in good hands. Would definitely recommend and book again!”

“I had Esteban house sit to look after my big, rambunctious dog Sable for 6 days. Not only did Esteban take amazing care of my dog, he left the house in incredible condition. All my dog’s needs were met, and he sent regular pupdates. I’m a very anxious person and it was my first time using Rover, but Esteban put me at ease and I am so glad I decided to go with him. I would 100% use Esteban again if I ever leave town. I believe it’s safer and easier on my dog than boarding her at a dog hotel. You da man, Esteban!”

Casondra B.

“Victoria was very calm, collected and kind. She was flexible with our last minute needs and able to handle our very high energy doberman puppy with ease. Will be booking again - 10/10!”

Gianna R.

“So glad I found Cathy! Communication was easy, she sent lots of pictures and daily updates while I was away, and I swear my house was cleaner when I got home than when I left ? . My cat was happy, so I was happy, and we'll definitely be booking her again.”

Suzanne M.

“Ariana is wonderful! She sends frequent updates and pictures and you can tell she really loves dogs. Our Boxer puppy Hank, loves her. She also kindly deals with my nuerosis about leaving him. Highly recommended!”

Lacee M.

“She is great with my 2 dogs! She leaves the house clean. It is easy to call her if we needed her as long as she is available. Would recommend her for your furbabies!”

Meryll Ann C.

“Dennis is wonderful and we can’t wait to work with him again. He took great care of Bruno and our home. Dennis provided photos and updates on Bruno while we were away and our home was spotless when we arrived home. Highly recommend’”

Darcy P.

“Melina is fantastic! She stayed with my 2 pups, Rudy and Rondo, for 4 days while I was on a business trip. I received multiple pictures and updates that put me at ease during my travels. I am an anxious traveler and I was very comfortable knowing she was taking such good care of my sweet dogs. I highly recommend her for walks, overnight stays and pet care overall. Thank you for everything. ❤️??”

Tracy B.

“Cleopatra was quick and response in the setup and came out right away for a meet and greet. She was communicative while we were away with pictures and updates. She was able to deal with giving our cat an eye drop twice a day. She delt with any house issues quickly (garbage cans.) I would definiteley hire Cleopatra again.”

Eileen M.

“Lulia did a wonderful job of watching Mak. She sent lots of pictures and updates throughout her stay and checked in with us anytime she would be away from the house for a longer period of time. Overall, very happy with Lulia and would gladly ask her to watch Mak again!”

About: I have had 16 lovely years caring for all sorts of animals including many dogs and cats! I will care for your fur baby like my very own two kitties whom i adore! I am new to the area and looking to make your live a little easier :) I manage a criminal defense firm but animals are my passion! I love to help humans and people alike. I can do Monday-Friday after 6:30 and I am readily available every weekend to help you out! I take my time to let your little one warm up to me and care for them as if they are my own. I diligently watch, care for, and protect all animals in my care :)

About: I have 10+ years of pet and house sitting experience. I am a lover of all pets, whether they are cuddly or more of the silent observer type. Lots of availability and range of coverage location, so I am here to support you with your needs in watching your fur baby! I am a graduate nursing student who has a lot of free time during the week and weekends, as I only have class certain days of the week. I find myself with not much to do on my free days and would love to use this time to support pet owners while they are away from home. I am very attune to the pet’s routine and try to stick to this as much as possible, as I know they are missing their routine with their owners so much already. I love to spend quality time with the pets that I am watching, whether this involves taking them on long walks, visits to the dog park, or providing many pets. For house sitting, I am a thoughtful guest who keeps spaces clean and respects the client’s home. In the past, I usually bring my own meal-prepped food so that cooking in the home is not necessary other than to heat items up.

“Meshaal was a wonderful dog and house sitter! He has a calm demeanor and is very professional. He took excellent care of our senior dog who has some health needs and took care of all his medications with no issues. He also promptly responded to all our check in messages. Our dog loved Meshaal and and was crying when he left! Meshaal also left our house better than we left it. Looking forward to rebooking with Meshaal again in the future. Would definitely recommend Meshaal to others!”

“Second time having Elise at my home with my two pups and she was great with them again. I came home to happy tails. Recommend and would hire again. Thanks Elise!”

Ada P.

“Mony had a great time with Gabrielle, and she sent tons of great pictures and even some videos. Tons of communication and you can't even tell she stayed at the house. Can't recommend her higher and hope she is free for my next trip as I know my pup will be in good hands with her.”
