Pet Sitting Oakland

“I’ve had a great experience with Christina! She is reliable, caring, and always takes great care of my dog. I really appreciate knowing my dog is in good hands while I’m away. She does a wonderful job, is dependable, and I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for someone they can trust with their pets!”

“It was my first time using rover and I was looking for someone who truly understands dogs, and its Tamara! Tamara was a true blessing while I was away in Mexico. My dog isn’t usually quick to trust—he even tried to bite her when they first met—but she was so patient and kind with him. By the end of the week, he was waiting at the door for her, tail wagging, 30 minutes early. I could tell he really bonded with her. I’m so grateful and would absolutely have her watch him again.”

“Amazing as always! Sorry, yes Sookie got new bowls from his grandma for Christmas. Thank you so much for taking care of my boy :)”

“Olivia was everything I could hope for and more in a sitter for my two kitties. From the onset of the booking through each visit, her communication was quick and effective. She went above and beyond with grace and patience when an issue of my own fault happened (I had the wrong address!). The photos she sent assured me even more that the kittens felt safe and comfortable with her presence on each timely visit. 10/10 would recommend hiring her for your pet sitting needs!”

“Evan did a wonderful job watching our cat for a long weekend. He was communicative and responsive, which made us feel comfortable and confident that our cat was in great hands.”

“Thanks again for over caring for the dogs and stray kitty! My return home to them was like returning from work. (Even tho it was days) They were happy but not overly excited to see me and I know that is nothing short of you giving them the opportunity for their routine to not be disturbed and visiting with them with love!”

“Great experience with Jasmine, as usual”

About: I have volunteered at animal shelters since I was 10 years old, and am comfortable with dogs and cats of all sizes and ages! Additionally, I have seven years of experience pet/house sitting, including overnight. In the past few years, I have specialized in caring for puppies, and have experience with bottle feeding. I also had the unique opportunity to work with a coalition that supported people experiencing domestic violence by connecting their pets with fosters while they stayed in shelters (which normally do not allow animals.) I am currently a grad student at the University of Chicago, and have quite a bit of flexibility in my schedule! Whether you would like me to stay at your home full-time while you are away, or just need me to stop by for periodic visits, walks, or play-time, I have plenty of time to dedicate to your pets! I am available both during the week and on the weekends, and can't wait to spend them hanging out with your cats and dogs! I am very comfortable walking dogs of all sizes, and am happy to take them outside to play as well! If your pet has any medication, I can make sure they take them. I will make sure that dogs have plenty of potty breaks, and that all animals are fed on time. If I am staying in your home, I will be respectful of any boundaries you have and will leave the place just as you left it.

About: I’ve always been the go-to among family and friends to watch their animals when they are gone for trips or vacations or need extra help. I’m an avid walker in general, and a walk is always better with a pet! I’ve volunteered for two years at animal shelters, trained and raised a puppy, and have experience caring for pets young and old. I’m currently a writer, remote copy-editor, and substitute teacher with an incredibly flexible schedule at the moment. I can watch, walk, and care for dogs and cats pretty much 24/7 at the moment. The only thing I cannot do is host animals in my home due to my apartment’s lease. Every pet is different and every pet owner cares for their pet differently. Let me know all your animals quirks and needs and I’ll meet them happily! I’d love to walk your dog around the park or neighborhood, give them them their special treats, respect your cat’s weird boundaries and quirks, etc, etc. :)

“Dominique is excellent. She is reliable and great with our big and small dogs. We plan to ask her to help our dogs every time we need a dog walker or drop in visit.”

About: Fun fact about me is I’ve never actually had a pet thanks to my parents, but ever since I was a little kid, I have always been around and taken care of the pets of different family members. This has led me to form a love for dogs and animals in general, hopefully as a profession in the future. I’m currently a student athlete at the University of Tampa meaning that working on my craft daily is a must. In my free time, I will definitely have time for pet care. I plan to not only respect the dog that I am caring for, but I will respect the owner, the owner’s property, and whatever they request.

“Tim is amazing! He was very communicative, prompt and most importantly patient and showed my fur baby the attention she needed when I was on vacation.”

“Coretta is absolutely fantastic! She took such great care of my cat, providing regular updates and making sure everything was perfect. My cat seemed so happy and relaxed when I returned, which is a testament to the loving and attentive care she received. I highly recommend Coretta for anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter!”

About: Hello, I’m Cori and I was born and raised in Chicago. I’m comfortable with all types of dogs and I’m very aware that each dog is unique. My love for dogs started when I adopted my Jack Russell Terrier, Ziggy Marley, back in 2009. Ziggy made me realize that it takes time, commitment, patience, education, and love to care for any animal. Since I have a pet, I’m very experienced in dog walking. I’m aware of the different types of leashes and harnesses that is needed. I follow any specific instructions that a owner has for their pup. Whatever you need me to do for your pet, I will do it. Lastly, SAFETY, is my number one priority when it comes to your pet! ❤️

About: I have hands-on experience caring for dogs of all sizes, breeds, and energy levels, including active and strong working breeds. I focus on creating a safe, structured, and stress-free environment while making sure every dog gets the attention, exercise, and care they need. I’m comfortable with walks, feeding schedules, crate routines, basic obedience reinforcement, and handling energetic dogs with patience and consistency. Pet parents can expect dependable communication, regular updates, and someone who genuinely treats their dogs like family. Your dog’s safety, comfort, and routine come first. A typical day includes structured walks, playtime, exercise, water breaks, feeding according to your instructions, and plenty of attention. I keep a calm and clean environment while making sure each dog gets the right balance of activity and rest based on their personality and needs. I’m especially comfortable with active and strong breeds, so dogs that need confidence, structure, and engagement are in good hands. Whether your pet needs a relaxed companion, exercise, or consistent care while you’re away, I aim to make the experience stress-free for both you and your dog. You’ll receive updates, photos, and quick responses throughout the stay so you always know how your dog is doing.

“Acoya was wonderful! Was so sweet to our kitties while we left them for a night. She even mashed up my cat’s food because he has a tooth problem. Thank you so much Acoya! Definitely will be booking you again!”

About: I’ve lived with dogs since I was little and have always had a love for animals! I now have a pet cat of my own and often pet sit for family and friends of mine. I currently am a full time student and work as well. My evenings and weekends are full availability though, and I’m always free for last minute walks and drop in’s. Ever since I was little I’ve been a huge animal lover. I have experience with all different kinds dogs and cats, all of various sizes, ages, and behavior styles.

About: I’ve been around animals my entire life, growing up in a home with several dogs and gaining hands-on experience caring for them from a young age. Over the years, I’ve become very comfortable with all aspects of pet care, including administering daily medications and following specific routines to keep pets healthy and stress-free. I’m especially attentive to each animal’s unique needs my own pup, for example, has sensitivities, so I understand how important it is to monitor diet, behavior, and environment closely. In addition to dogs, I also have experience with a variety of animals, as my mom rehabilitated exotic wildlife while I was growing up. That background taught me patience, adaptability, and how to properly care for animals that require extra attention. What sets me apart is how much I prioritize each pet’s health and quality of life. I personally walk my own dog four times a day and bring that same level of care, attention, and routine to every dog I work with. I pride myself on being reliable, detail-oriented, and genuinely loving toward every pet I care for, and I specialize in working with puppies. I work from home, which allows me to be present and attentive to your dog throughout the day. This setup is ideal for pets who need consistent companionship, frequent potty breaks, or a little extra reassurance while you’re away. Whether your dog thrives on attention, has separation anxiety, or simply enjoys having someone nearby, I’m able to provide a calm, supervised environment with plenty of interaction and care. I live in a secure apartment on the third floor with easy ground-level access for quick and convenient potty breaks. My building also offers a dedicated outdoor dog area on the 17th floor, providing a safe and clean space for additional exercise and fresh air. I prioritize safety, routine, and comfort in my home, and I’m happy to follow any specific instructions you have for your pet’s care. To keep you fully at ease, I provide daily, detailed updates with photos so you always know how your dog is doing.
