Pet Sitting & Drop Ins in Montclair, Oakland

“Madeline did a great job watching our 1 year old Zuko. She was very communicative and sent plenty of pictures! Even dealt with getting into our apartment after we had accidentally locked the door. Would recommend!”

“Zsa Zsa was absolutely wonderful and went above and beyond to care for Dinka. The visits were during a period of high heat and she conscientiously checked the temperature each day to make sure the home didn’t get too hot for my cat. She is kind and patient with cats, and very communicative and responsible. I highly recommend her as a catsitter!”

“We have a fearful senior rescue dog with a complicated history, and Liz has been great about doing an initial meet-and-great and then an extended drop-in to spend time with our dog alone. She very much understands how to interact with a fearful dog who needs time to feel trusting. Her experience as the guardian of a rescue dog herself definitely comes into play. She was punctual, cheerful, and generous-minded, and we really appreciate her willingness to work with Penny! We will definitely use her again.”

“Christine is the best! She took such good care of Marigold while I was gone and really got her out of her shell. She is very easy to communicate with!”

“Working with Shanley was ideal in every way. She's a quick and clear communicator, she was thorough in our initial meet and greet and in her visits with my cats, and she did a wonderful job caring for them and attending to other details in the house. I will definitely book with Shanley again next time I go out of town!”

“Marina is amazing! Very trustworthy, attentive and loving.”

“Melina is great with all of our pets! She kept us updated and sent photos of all four pets for each drop in. My dog loves her and even the shyest cat comes out to see her during her visits.”

“I appreciated the detailed, but brief, updates from Natalie, as well as multiple pictures. Natalie was patient and kind with our cat who can be a bit skittish. Came home to a happy kitty. Thanks Natalie!”

“JJ is a real professional. Took great care of our home and more important our cats. They loved playing with JJ and she sent us really fun action shots of our Bengals playing. Will def. rebook with JJ.”

“Thank you Dean for taking care of Willow!! I felt very safe and comfortable knowing she was in good hands!!”

“Megan and Jon are the absolute best pet sitters you will find. They took so much care making sure they had all the info they needed before sitting for our two puppies, they were easy to communicate with, and so caring. They gave us regular updates, including photos, and went out of their way to make sure our boys had a fun, safe, and enriching stay at their home. I was so at ease because I knew my boys were not only being watched, but also cherished. Can’t recommend them highly enough!”

About: I’ve always loved animals, for their big hearts and one of a kind personality traits. My family had a Rottweiler when I was a child and she always felt like the little sister I never had. My hours are flexible so I’m open to meeting your requirements to watch over your pet. I currently don’t have any pets at the moment, so having the opportunity to cuddle up & spend some time making a new furry friend would be a treat. Overall, I’m very passionate when it comes to the safety & well-being of your pets, so I look forward to providing I am currently a freelance filmmaker, so my schedule is pretty flexible! I’m available for boarding on the weekdays after 2pm and Saturdays from 10am-4pm I'd love to know more about your furry friends personality traits, or any activities that they enjoy to ensure that they feel as comfortable as possible. Also curious, if your pet has any specific needs as in their diet, limitations or routines that i should be aware of; Lastly, it would be helpful knowing if there are any triggers or quirks your pet may have that I should be mindful of.

Our goal is to always put ourselves in your shoes and their paws😆 and provide the best-pampered care for your babies and peace of mind while you’re away.

She likes all new friends but minds her own business most of the time😆. Given that said, your pup(s) must be human friendly.😅.

“we love cassandra!”

“If Cubby, Sammy, Lulu, Billye, Moomoo or Mikey were able to write a testimonial about THEIR Ruby, this little box would not be large enough to hold their unstoppable tail wags, licks, kisses whoops, woofs and meows. As far as they are concerned, Ruby is the best!!! I mean .... like better than Mom. No rain, sleet, hail, wind, snow, or blazing heat will keep her away from her daily romps with them, and when the weather does not cooperate, she finds active entertainment to fit the day. On the occasional slumber party occasions they'd rather she shared the popcorn with the movie, but know she will spoil and treat them appropriately. We are watching waistlines. As a dog/kitty mom, I am particularly careful (ok let's be honest here-- fussy) about my fur babies. We often have a few furry friends that stay with us, and Ruby always accommodates the increased numbers with a smile on her face and an extra leash and treat. Plus she has a super safe car for road trips. She even deals with the puppy spa visit days! It doesn't get much better than that.”

She is not just a dog sitter; she is a true friend to all dogs.”

“Thank goodness I found Jackson at the last minute! My cats were sooo grateful a loving cat person was by their side while I had to go away urgently! I will use Jackson to watch my ‘kids’ again soon! Thank you Jackson!”
