Cat Sitting Oakland

About: For the past ten years, I’ve dedicated myself to providing professional, high-quality pet care, specifically focusing on dog walking/sitting. Over the last decade, I haven’t just walked dogs—I’ve managed schedules, built deep trust with clients, and mastered the art of understanding animal behavior and safety. Whether navigating the logistics of running a busy daily schedule or ensuring that every dog in my care receives personalized attention and exercise, I treat the responsibility with the highest level of professionalism. Ten years in this industry has taught me incredible time management, adaptability, and how to deliver exceptional, reliable service that keeps clients coming back Im my own boss! I work my own hours and will schedule according to YOUR needs!! Early mornings, mid day or late nights… whatever works for you! Animals will be kept at close distance and leashed. I have my own transportation (if needed). When I am with the pet my attention is completely focused on them!

“Joseph was amazing! Our elderly dog and 3 cats enjoyed his visits. Joseph was extremely reliable. Our dog needed medications administered at specific times and Joseph was always right on time. We will definitely contact Joseph again..”

“Allie did an outstanding job taking care of our Cali. Cali is a tough little girl and gets a bit of "separation anxiety". Allie handled it well and did a great job of making Cali feel comforatble and keeping us informed along the way. Would highly recommend her!”

About: [PSA 1st-2nd week of May - limited moderate and no high energy bookings due to medical] Hello! I have years of pet care experience under my belt. Throughout my childhood I was able to grow my love and knowledge of many animals. I had cats dogs and small mammals like hamsters and bunnies growing up I got to help care for and learn about. During my teen years I helped family friends and neighbors with their pets including cats, dogs and even goats and chickens. With a solid foundation in feeding, walking, grooming, medicating, and playing with animals, I look forward to meeting and helping out many more pets throughout my twenties and beyond. I’m currently looking to go back to school, growing my expertise as a pet walker and sitter, and taking care of my own pets. I’ll have the free time and consistent schedule to check in and provide care for local pets as well. Safety trust and environment are a must when it comes to pet care. Environmentally I have my eyes peeled for hazards that could harm or cause illness in an animal, and remove those things to where they can’t be a problem. In building trust, I start every interaction with pet psychology in mind. I let them approach me with all of their senses first. Once they become interested in getting to know me, I can continue to show them I’m a safe person through gentle and secure actions on my part like walking carefully and taking softly.

“Pam was great, very timely visits and lots of updates. My kitties looked very content in their daily photos and I felt like they were in very good hands while we were away. Definitely highly recommend and will hire again!”

“This is the third time we have used Andrew to watch our cat and will definitely be using him again! I love getting updates and pictures seeing how he is doing!”

“Corinne is the best! Rocket is my little love muffin and it’s so nice knowing he’s getting taken care of when I have to work nights. She’s great!”

“Samantha went above and beyond for our cats and us. She took excellent care and also spent quality with them and that means the world to us. We highly recommend her!”

“Our second time with Katie. She is very reliable and responsive to our pets. So glad to have found her and will definitely be using her services again.”

Carol B.

“I have too many adjectives to describe Colleen. She was extremely trustworthy, communicative, accommodating, caring, thoughtful, kind, responsible and prepared. I always stress when I go away and leave my girls but Colleen alleviated that feeling almost entirely. She even stayed longer than needed the first night. I am very happy with how my girls were treated and will definitely pick Colleen as my sitter next time.”

Robert C.

“Sevinc is absolute fantastic. She was extremely attentive and friendly to my cat Arthur. I definitely felt at ease, especially with this being my cat’s first time alone overnight. I’d highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, reliable and trustworthy pet sitter.”

Erica B.

“I am very fortunate to have found Yang to take care of my girls for a week. Yang was extremely kind, trustworthy, communicative, caring, responsible, prepared, thoughtful and generous. In our meet and greet she brought a notebook, connected with my cats and asked great questions before leaving. She offered to bring her own brush to groom my one cat, wore shoe covers to keep my place clean and even brought her own litter bags to take away each day. The level of detail and attention she provided throughout the whole experience was something I have never experienced from a pet sitter and the genuine bond she formed with my cats made me exceedingly assured, content and happy knowing they had her presence and care while I was away. I can’t recommend Yang enough and will pick her as my sitter going forward.”

About: I’m a long-time cat and dog owner with experience caring for friends’ and families’ pets as well. I have lots of free time and flexible availability. I currently work part-time where I choose my own hours! I’m looking forward to using my free time to care for your pets and give them my full attention. I will care for your pets in whichever way best works for you. I’ll keep them safe and away from other animals and humans on walks, give them the right amount of exercise for their breed or size, and give them all the pets and attention they could ever ask for.

About: I’ve always had a huge love for animals and have experience caring for many different types of pets, including dogs, rabbits, and birds. I also owned a German Shepherd, so I’m comfortable handling larger, high-energy dogs and understand the importance of patience, structure, and exercise. I previously worked as a vet tech, where I learned how to properly handle animals, recognize signs of stress or discomfort, and provide attentive care. I’m reliable, patient, and genuinely enjoy spending time with animals and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and happy during walks and visits. I also provide updates and photos so owners can feel at ease while they’re away. I enjoy making pet care part of my daily routine because spending time with animals is something I genuinely love. I currently work during the weekdays, but I’m available most evenings as well as Thursdays and weekends for walks and drop-in visits. I like staying active, so dog walking fits naturally into my schedule, and I always make sure pets get attentive, reliable care and plenty of attention during visits. I focus on making pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while keeping their normal routine as consistent as possible. During walks and drop-in visits, I pay close attention to each pet’s personality, energy level, and needs. I make sure they get exercise, fresh water, attention, and a calm environment. With my previous vet tech experience, I’m also attentive to signs of stress or discomfort and always prioritize safety. I treat every pet with patience and care as if they were my own.

“Wendy did a fabulous job watching our two fur babies! Being out of the country I'm always frightened the AC will stop working for some odd reason, but she assured me that the house remained cool the entire time. Located in the same town as me, she could come to the house quickly if needed. The house was clean and tidy just like we left it. We'll definitely use her on our next trip!”

“THE best!”
