Pet Sitting in Oakland

“April was very attentive, open, and communicative while I was away visiting family. I will definitely rebook her to care for my senior kitty.”

“Great first visit with Melissa today. My dog immediately liked her. We look forward to many future drop in visits.”

“Highly recommend Madelyn for taking care of your animals. She was amazing with my 3 dogs and cat. Plenty of updates through photos, videos and daily paragraphs. We had a storm while we were on vacation and she did a few extra tasks to help us out as well as taking care of the pups. All of my animals loved her even on the first introduction. Thank you for taking such great care of our fur babies on our vacation!!”

“I feel very comfortable that my dog is taken care of, safe and getting just enough attention to help fill the void in her heart while Mom is at work. Sarah is very kind, professional but most of all interacts extremely well with my pup. She also explained how the rover app works and made several suggestions to go about entering my home that helped to sooth my nervous nerves upon using the app to begin with. I learned a ton about door locks I never knew existed! If your new to the app I absolutely recommend and I definitely recommend Sarah! 5 stars from me and a very big thank you!!”

“Emma was so great! Even though our kitties were a little wary of someone they didn’t know, she was patient and still spent time with them which we really appreciated! She was communicative and we loved seeing the photos and videos she sent. Highly recommend!”

About: Grew up with animals including lizards, cats, dogs, birds and horses. Volunteered in animal shelters doing all care of cats and dogs! Love animals :) I volunteer at the shelter, so I work short shifts at odd hours but I am fully available at almost any other time of the day! I have three cats currently who are the most spoiled animals, they get lick mats, vitamins, and all sorts of other fun enrichment. They are also some of the kindest cat you will ever meet! I would extend this love for my cats to your animal offering homemade pumpkin puree treats (if allowed) and plenty of attention and play time!

“Kelly is the best!! The care she provided for our pets while we were away for an extended amount of time was top notch. We couldn't ask for a better pet caretaker! She was on task 100% of the time, She truly loves our pets and treated them as if they were her own. We can't thank her enough and hope to use her many more times in the future.”

Large fenced in yard and farmers porch equipped with doggy doors for easy accessibility! I have 2 Australian Shepherds who are incredibly dog friendly, love snuggling and adding new friends to their pack! That being said, my care will depend on the pet owners preference - I am able to crate, restrict doggy door access, limit play time with my dogs etc. If your pet is not dog friendly or you simply prefer your pet stays in your own home while away, I offer my services on location as well! All of which is completely decided upon your preferences and with your pet’s best interests in mind.

“Valerie was great! I really appreciated the details she provided each time she visited Birdie, it really put my worries at ease. She was dependable and Birdie seemed to have a good time hanging out with her. I would highly recommend her services and will definitely use her help again when I need it!”

“Rylee is amazing! Very communicative, which is so appreciated with a new puppy. Will be using her in the future!”

“Lea enjoys working with animals especially dogs. She has walked dogs on a regular basis and also works at a dog boarding facility. At this facility her job duties include pet care, cleaning of kennels, grooming and playing with the dogs.”

About: Pets have always been part of my life, for as long as I can remember. When I was 12 I started helping my step father at his animal hospital with after hour emergencies,and simple cleaning tasks. When I was 14 I was officially hired as the kennel attendant. My main responsibilities were caring for boarding cats and dogs as well as any sick, injured or animals post surgery. Over time I became a vet tech, assisting with appointments, and procedures. I LOVED my job. When my 2nd daughter was born I made the tough choice to stay home with my kids after my step father passed away. Throughout my life I've cared for a wide variety of animals, furred, feathered and scaled! As an adult our family consists of 2 labs, 2 cats, and 6 chickens! I am a stay at home, homeschooling mom of 2 beautiful girls. This allows me to have a very flexible schedule, and can fit in visits almost any time of the day! In my home our pets are family! I will treat your pets with the same amount of kindness and love as my own! I am comfortable caring for pets with a variety of needs.

“I have known Katie the last 7 years. She is the most caring, responsible pet owner I know. She treats any dog like they’re her own. She is respectful in others homes, has great time management, and is a great pet caretaker. Whenever I have questions about my own dog, I go to her. Highly recommend her for all your pet needs!”

“Hope to see you soon thanks for stopping in”

“Erin is such a wonderful sitter! We use her on every trip to take care of our three cats and she is very nice, accommodating and responsive. I feel like I can relax on vacation knowing I can count on her to take of my kitties while I am away!!! Highly recommend her.”

“Monte is great with cats and dogs. Loving, caring and takes the time the pet needs to feel comfortable and safe. He is active with the ones that needs to get their energy out and will just sit and live on the couch potatoes. I've had Monte care for my high energy dog and seen his love for his own cat. I would use Monte every time I needed a pet sitter”

“Abigail not only did a perfect job of taking care of my cats with photos and check-ins but she went way above and beyond: she was caring for them when the big flood happened in December and even though she did not need to drop in on the day the house flooded, she tried to stop in and check on everything. Her call to me is the only reason I found out what was going on so I could cancel my plans and get home asap. I highly recommend Abigail and hope to have her back next time I go away. Thank you Abigail!!”

“Ileia loves animals. Her dogs are spoiled worse than children! Her passion goes beyond her pets as she works with animals as well. I would trust her to pet sit my pack anytime.”

“Jason did a great job of caring for our kitties, plants, and home! Would recommend!”

“Riley is trustworthy and compassionate. She is responsible and dependable. Riley takes her job seriously and enjoys getting to know all of the animals she cares for and treats them as her own.”
