About: I’ve fostered and volunteered with a wide variety of animals over the last 10 years including cats, dogs, rabbits, reptiles, and farm animals. I’ve worked with a variety of ages (neonatal to senior), treated a variety of medical conditions (requiring medications, injections, and inhalers), and cared for animals of all temperaments (dog reactive, anxious, etc.) I’m currently a full time student at Berkeley Law but I’m usually on campus for only 5 or so hours a day. During the summer, I will be working remotely. On weekends, I am available all day. I will ensure that your pet stays in their usual routine while providing them plenty of love and attention. I will respect the animals boundaries in your home and build trust by creating a safe environment while you are gone.
“It was a pleasure to work with Patricia, who stayed at my house for five days and took care of my eight-year-old mini doodle, Ruby. Patricia was highly communicative leading up to her stay, sent daily pictures of Ruby while I was on my trip, left the house spotless, and even helped out with our parakeets. When I met Patricia during our meet and greet, I could see that she is a truly lovely and kind person. I look forward to working with her again. Patricia is highly trustworthy, responsible, and most importantly took great care of Ruby, I cannot recommend her services highly enough!”
About: My pet care experience includes looking after cats, dogs, fish, and hamsters. I'm happy to maintain litter boxes, take dogs on long walks and play fetch, spend time with cats, administer pills and medications to any animal (even if they are not excited about it), and provide pets and scritches whenever needed I'm currently working 8-4:30 with open availability every early morning, evening, and weekend from now until June 6! During the summers, my availability will be completely open! I am experienced caring for pets in other people's homes, but unfortunately not in my own because I have two rescued cats of my own. I love taking dogs on walks, feeding and spending time with cats, and looking after all types of animals in your home!
“Eleanna was amazing with my older dog Ollie! He’s a reactive dog but Eleanna took the time and had the skills to help him adjust while I was away and took some adorable photos!”
“zhane was an incredible sitter for our pups! Incredibly communicative. I got photos and updates everyday, and our dogs got a lot of attention, exercise and loving company which is all we could ask for and more! THANK YOU ZHANE”
“Lola is a great sitter and we loved having her stay. She is communicative, responsible, attentive and tidy- everything one needs in a sitter. Monkey was very well cared for while I was away and I would recommend her to stay with any pet!”
“Michelle was absolutely fabulous! She was able to watch my two dogs on very short notice while I was in Oakland to visit family. My dogs loved her! She took great care of them, taking them on multiple walks throughout the day and providing attention when needed. She we be the first person I reach out to when I am in the Oakland area again. Thank you Michelle!”
“Nicky did great with my dog. He isn’t super comfortable with others taking care of him, but he seemed really at ease with Nicky and warmed up quickly. I was able to not worry about him while out of town, knowing that he was being taken care of. Thanks, Nicky”
“Nicole was fantastic. She was so patient with my two maniacs, sent plenty of pictures and updates, was punctual, professional and communicative. I highly recommend her for all of your pet needs and look forward to her sitting with Henley and Jones again!”
“Agnes was taking care of my cat Fritz for a week and it was the first time I booked them. I was very happy with them and my cat too. Agnes is very responsive and they gave me every day feedback. Definitely can recommend them.”
“I hired Robin to watch my kitty, Nyx, for a long weekend. Nyx is a sweet lap cat with me but very shy and usually hides in the closet when my friends come over. With Robin she rolled on her belly and purred within the first moments of meeting her. It was so comforting to me. Robin knows how to be calm and gentle and the first night sent photos of Nyx on her lap. She was communicative and caring. Additionally, Nyx needs medication twice a day and Robin handled that easily too. I can't say enough great things about Robin or how she cared for my cat and I would highly recommend her to anyone.”
“Dogs were completely chill when we came back, which is a sign that they were happy and taken care of. Katherine was easy to work with and a great communicator. I'd happily use her again.”
“Daria was absolutely wonderful on all fronts! She’s extremely timely with her communication/ responses and makes sure she understands all instructions before the visit starts. We have a senior dog with many needs including being carried up/down stairs and on a strict medication schedule, and Daria was very patient, meticulous in administering the medication, kept both dogs on schedule, and sent us photos and updates throughout our trip! We could tell they had been well taken care of and well-loved (and cuddled!) upon our return. The house/ guest space was kept very tidy. It would be an honor to have Daria watch our babies and home again in the future.”
“Alondra was a MAGNIFICENT pet, plant, and home sitter! My very, very, very shy cat quickly came to trust and enjoy her kind, patient presence for which I am deeply grateful. Alondra was so easy and pleasant to work with; very good communications and support. She left the household happily alive and all things clean. I’m so grateful for Alondra. She’s the best! ❤️❤️❤️”
“Thuy was an awesome dog and house sitter. She sent pictures regularly (without me even asking) which helped out my mind at ease. She also sent regular updates on how my pup was doing. She also left recommendations for me regarding my pup based on her experience with him. I would definitely recommend Thuy and book her again!!!”

Our dog, Enzo, decided to give Robert some attitude and behaved differently than usual during their time together. Thankfully, Robert handled things very well and was able to manage the situation. He was also very accommodating and flexible with our unique timing and apartment building setup. We are so thankful for his time and care!
Victoria apartment-sat with Snowy for three days and was absolutely on top of everything from walks to treats to cuddle time. Provided a lot of comfort and confidence that my 3yr old corgi would be well taken care of. Look forward to her and Snowy hanging out again.
Shareese was a huge help with our elderly dog while we were away. Our dog was having a hard time with age-related changes and Shareese provided such calm and compassionate care. She was patient in all our communication and helped us figure out how to keep our dog feeling comfortable. We are so grateful to have found her and for the peace of mind she gave us.
Sarah was awesome. She took care of my high maintenance blind, senior dog for three days while I was out of town. She handled his many medications and followed my detailed instructions for his care completely. She even moved my car into the garage for me when I needed it, and my home was spotless upon return. She is very professional and very thorough. And is especially skilled with sr/diabled dogs. I will for sure book her again for help with my lil guy.
Ida and Travis were amazing to work with! They sent tons of cute photos of my cats, were the best communicators, and even left my home cleaner than they found it. They were very attentive to learning about my cats' needs and managing challenges like my sticky front door key. I'd definitely use them again!
Kendra fits us in sort of last minute, but despite that she was very thorough in getting the details needed to care for my senior crew. Both my cat and my dog have several medications a day, and Kendra handled it all very smoothly. She paid extra attention to some troubles my old dog was having, and kept me updated throughout her stay. House was very clean and well maintained, and everyone seemed happy and content. My younger dog even wanted to go home with Kendra! Highly recommend her and will use her help again as soon as I can.
Robyn came and took care of my older cat with an illness for 1 week. My cat, Nyx, requires medicine twice a day and lots of cuddle time which Robyn provided equally. It was the second booking ive made with Robyn. Again everything was great, and my cat was happy and healthy upon my return. Highly reccomend! Robyn a great! Thank you!!!!
Valerie was great! Rafa took to her immediately and really enjoyed her company and care. She provided plenty of pictures and updates throughout the day, which we really appreciated. She asked lots of questions demonstrating her attention to Rafa’s particular needs. We highly recommend Valerie!
Yena was great - I could tell my dogs felt safe with her right away in her first walk-through, and she was not daunted by an energetic pitbull and terrier duo. While we were away for 4 days, she stayed over, and gave great photo diaries of her time with the pups. She took thoughtful steps to reflect that she heard and executed my directions and details in the photos, so I knew the dogs were staying on their routines. She was diligent and did what she said she'd do. I would hire her again, for sure.
