About: I’ve been caring for dogs, cats, and other types of pets since I was very young and I’ve always had a great passion for it. I am unable to care for your pets in my own home but I am happy to come to you. I teach three days a week and mainly in the afternoon. I am often most available on Tuesdays and Fridays, but have time before and after work to check in. I will always work hard to ensure your pets are well cared for, comfortable, and have fun while you are away. I can send updates and photos as often as you'd like.
About: I have my doctorate in clinical psychology and love animals. I am not allowed to have my own pet so I love to pet sit! I am currently transitioning from internship to post doc and have a lot of time on my hands. Flexible in scheduling and happy to help when needed! I always make sure to follow the instructions left by the owner & give lots and lots of care and love to the pet I am sitting!

About: Hi, I'm Corinne! I'm an Oakland-based yoga teacher, writer, and aerial dancer with more than 8 years of professional pet-sitting experience. Caring for animals is one of my favorite parts of what I do, and I love getting to know each pet's unique personality, routines, and quirks. Since I began housesitting in 2018, I've cared for dozens of dogs and cats of all ages, breeds, and temperaments—including energetic puppies, senior pets, reactive or anxious dogs, and pets who need medication or other specialized care. As a yoga teacher, I'm naturally patient, observant, and attentive. I enjoy taking the time to earn an animal's trust, notice changes in their behavior, and adapt to the pace that helps them feel safest and most comfortable. I split my work between teaching in person and working from home, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to spend plenty of quality time with the pets in my care. I'm organized, dependable, and comfortable learning new care routines, administering medication, and providing regular photo and video updates so you can relax knowing your pets are happy and well cared for. When caring for pets in their own homes, I treat every home with the same respect I give the animals, and I always strive to leave your home just as clean—or even cleaner—than I found it. I’m a yoga teacher, writer, and aerial dancer, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to build my days around the pets in my care. My schedule includes a mix of teaching in person and working from home, so I’m able to provide plenty of companionship, attention, and consistency for your pets. For overnight stays, I love creating a calm, home-like routine—morning walks, playtime, meals, enrichment, and plenty of cuddles or quiet companionship depending on your pet’s personality. For drop-in visits, I’m happy to follow your pet’s normal routine and make sure they receive the care, attention, exercise, and affection they need while you’re away. I’m organized and communicative, and I take the time to understand your pet’s unique needs, habits, and preferences so their routine feels as familiar and comfortable as possible. When caring for pets in their own home, my goal is always to create a safe, comfortable, and stress-free environment that feels familiar to them. I know how important it is to trust someone with your home and your animals, and I treat every space with the same care and respect I would want for my own. Before each sit, I take time to learn your pet’s routine, personality, triggers, preferences, and any special care instructions. I’m comfortable administering medication, caring for senior or anxious pets, and adapting my approach to each animal’s individual needs. As a yoga teacher, I’m naturally patient, observant, and attentive to small changes in behavior and energy. I focus on building trust at your pet’s pace—whether that means an adventurous walk, a playful session, or simply being a calm presence nearby. I’m also happy to provide regular updates, photos, and videos so you can feel connected and confident that your pets and home are in good hands.
“I was super stressed about finding a sitter for my 11 week old pup last minute for an all day training at work, and even more nervous about having a stranger visit my place! But Alejandra had fantastic reviews and even initiated meet & greet, which I really appreciated. And when she came to meet me and MoMo - boy, did my puppy LOVE her immediately, which made ME love her too!! :) Finally, on the day of the appointment, Alejandra showed up on time, followed all my requests, and took such good care of my puppy for an hour. TYSM Alejandra, I will book with you again next time MoMo needs a sitter!! ❤️❤️❤️”


“Danielle is amazing! Lenny looked so happy in the photos and was in good spirits when I got home. Great communication. She took him over to Lake Merritt during two 1-hr visits. I will definitely book with her again!”


About: With over ten years of hands-on experience caring for my own anxious, grumpy little dog, I’ve developed a deep well of patience, empathy, and skill—especially with pets who need a little extra understanding. I specialize in building trust with animals who are nervous, particular, or slow to warm up, and I truly enjoy earning their affection on their terms. I have experience with senior care, including administering medications, monitoring health changes, and maintaining comfortable routines. I’m also confident with training puppies and reinforcing positive behaviors, especially for dogs who need consistency and calm energy. Whether it's a clingy cat who needs companionship or a temperamental pup who prefers personal space, I tailor my care to fit each animal’s emotional and physical needs. I’m not just here to walk or feed—I’m here to make your pet feel safe, understood, and loved while you're away. Pet care is a meaningful and fulfilling part of my weekly rhythm. Whether it’s a quick visit for a shy cat, a weekend walk for your grumpy pup, or a cozy check-in while you're away, I’m happy to work around your schedule to give your pets the reliable, thoughtful care they deserve. I believe pets feel safest and happiest in their own space, so I focus on providing calm, attentive care right in your home—where they’re most comfortable. I follow your instructions closely to maintain their normal routines, whether that means specific feeding times, medication schedules, walk preferences, or favorite hiding spots for shy cats. For drop-ins and walks, I make sure your pet gets both physical exercise and emotional attention—whether that’s playtime, gentle companionship, or simply a peaceful presence. I always keep the home tidy, respect your space, and provide updates with photos so you can feel confident that your pets are in good hands. I don’t offer care in my own home, but I’m fully committed to making your home feel like a safe, calm haven while you’re away.
“Cassandra went beyond expectations and really took care of my little ones. She on time and asked me if there was anything else she could do to help. She was able to wipe down my Persians water eyes (despite his tantrums) and asked questions to clarify the cats needs. I would definitely rebooks and recommend!”

About: Hello! My name is Dan, and I live in Downtown Oakland. I have two cats, Bernie and Kitt, and I've been pet sitting for dogs and cats for pretty much my entire life. As someone who understands the anxiety of leaving your furry friends behind, I take the responsibility of being a pet sitter very seriously. I am an organized, detail-oriented person, and I take pride in following instructions accurately and completely. I am available for overnight stays, drop-ins, or walks. When I'm not pet sitting, I work as a non-profit attorney and freelance writer. I work mostly remotely with a flexible schedule, allowing me to be available for overnight stays as well as weekday drop-ins and walks. Especially if given enough advance notice or establishing a regular routine, I am typically able to accommodate most schedules. Outside of pet sitting, I work as a non-profit attorney and a freelance writer. I approach my clients' furry friends with the same compassion, care, and attention to detail that I do my own beloved pets, Bernie and Kitt. I communicate in advance with my clients to make sure that I understand their instructions and expectations. I very much appreciate the trust and responsibility involved in allowing someone to entire your home to care for your furry friends, and I strive to earn and deserve that trust from my clients.
About: Hi! I’m Madeline. I’m an urban planner based in Seattle and am currently living in the East Bay while my partner works in the area. I’d love to provide dependable, thoughtful care for your pets while you’re away! I’ve been a cat owner for eight years and grew up caring for cats, dogs, guinea pigs, and even a 40-year-old parrot! For just as long, I’ve been trusted by friends, neighbors, and loved ones to care for their cats and dogs. I understand how important it is to know your pets are safe, comfortable, and well cared for when you can’t be there yourself. I’d love to meet you and your furry family members! Thank you for considering me for your pet care needs. I have a flexible work schedule while I’m in the East Bay, so I can provide plenty of attention and accommodate your pet’s routine. I’m happy to work around feeding times, walks, medications, and other specific care needs to help keep your pet comfortable and on their normal schedule. I prioritize creating a safe, calm, and comfortable environment for every pet in my care. I’m attentive to their routines, boundaries, and individual needs, and I treat every home with the same respect I would my own.

“I booked Laura last minute after my other sitter canceled and she was super quick to reply and easy to communicate with. She sent updates and pictures of our cat every day. Will definitely book with her again. Thanks for taking such great care of Antonia!”

“I felt comfortable with Stephan taking care of my dog. He was very responsive and loved my dog (which I find to be very important) My puppy also seemed to respond to him well which makes my heart smile Thank you so much Stephan!!”

About: I've grown up with dogs and cats. I know their behavior and what to look for, and I love showering them all with the attention and affection they deserve! I have two cats myself (they're nearly 15 now), but my family has always had dogs. English Springer Spaniels, specifically. At one point, we had 3 of them! I'm the go-to petsitter when my friends and family are out of town, and I'd love to meet yours. I'm currently flexible so looking for anything from one-off visits to regularly scheduled ones. I can't do overnights because of my own pets but on occasion I'm sure we can work something out. Any instructions you have for how to care for your pet are appreciated. Depending on your home I'm happy to let pups out or keep them in, just need to let me know your (and their) preference.

We needed a drop-in on very short notice and Jeremy was quick to respond and confirm the booking. He was very attentive to details about our home and instructions, sent us an adorable photo right away and made the entire process seamless. Our kitty can be very picky about newcomers, but it was obvious from the pictures that he knows how to win her trust quickly. Will definitely be using his services again.
Liwei was a fantastic pet sitter for my babies! I was away for an entire week and needed someone to stop by my house twice a day, which I know is a lot! Liwei was very reliable and easy to communicate with. My pets were happy and healthy when I returned home. I received regular pictures, which is such a relief on vacation! She followed every instruction and we couldn't be happier! I highly recommend her as a pet sitter.
Love having Jessica look after my cat Kiwi. She's really been able to break through Kiwi's shyness and have her out and playing with her from day 1, when it usually takes a 3-4 days with different sitters. Would definitely keep booking as much as she is available!

Chen has been an incredible caretaker for our cats when we are away. He sends frequent updates so we know our cats are doing well. Our cats have grown fond of him and trust him. It’s nice to know we have a pet sitter who they are comfortable with and look forward to seeing. I can tell they genuinely miss Chen’s drop ins now that we are back. Every morning around the time scheduled for our drop ins they start meowing at me. They have gotten used to him coming to visit. Chen will be your cat’s best friend when you are away!
