House Sitting Panoramic Hill

“Angela was amazing! She offered to do a meet and greet before sitting, which was perfect for my dog who is a little wary of new people. I also got plenty of updates and pictures. And I was able to enjoy my time away worry free because she was in such good hands.”

About: I have grown up with big dogs and have helped my family in fostering over 15 different shelter dogs with different needs ages and behaviors. I also have over 5 years in dog and cat sitting experience. I’m currently super flexible and can fit in walks frequently i’m home for summer break so have lots of free time. I also have a car and can drive to nearby trailheads. If caring for pets in your home I will take all precautions and instructions given seriously. I’ll also update with photos of your pet and communicate accordingly.

About: I have been surrounded by animals my entire life, beginning with my childhood growing up on a farm. That early, hands-on exposure taught me the fundamentals of animal care, daily routines, and how to read animal behavior. This transitioned into professional work as a dog trainer at Happy Hound play and daycare in Oakland where I trained and cared for dogs both at the center and on park walks and in home visits. I am able to confidently handle pets of all sizes, temperaments, and energy levels from puppies needing structure and basic obedience to older dogs requiring a gentle, patient approach. I have a background in housing and caring for animals. I currently share my home with my own pet, Baloo and my housemates pet Bentley my living space is always dog-friendly. I know exactly what it takes to create a safe, enriching, and comforting environment for visiting animals. I can give owners peace of mind while they are away! I am currently working part-time and have lots of flexibility to work around schedules and to setup routines! I also have transportation to travel. I have a fully fenced in yard with two fur babies to keep your doggos safe and entertained! They can lounge outside in the sun or inside.

“Juliana is awesome!! She house sat for us for a few days and took super great care of our kitties and sent us very sweet pictures. Juliana is very kind, responsible, trustworthy and all around wonderful - we hope to have her watch our kitties again in the future!”

“Our puppy Murphy is a big energetic boy who loves to get into mischief. Kat did a great job with him, and he was a happy boy when we got home. Since this was our first time leaving him with someone else, I was very relieved that he did so well with her. I would definitely trust her again to watch our boy!”

“John did an excellent job watching our cat! He kept the place clean and communicated frequently and promptly. We highly recommend John for your pet care needs and we’re happy to have him back in the future.”

“This was my first time using Rover and working with Irina. She exceeded my expectations and hopes for animal care of our two cats and one senior dog. She was conscientious, thorough, took amazing photos of them all and was thorough with communication. Honestly she cared so well for my senior dog that I learned a bit from her. I'm so excited about Irina and highly recommend her!!”

“Lisa was a fantastic sitter for our cat, Pepita! I am an incredibly anxious pet owner and this was my first time using Rover, so I was very nervous going into the weekend, but Lisa put me at ease! You can tell she absolutely loves cats and getting to know them, and she communicated frequently and thoroughly. She also went above and beyond to do a load of laundry before she left my place, which I totally did not expect or require. I will certainly be using Lisa's services again!! Finding her as a sitter has freed me up for more summer travel :)”

“Myra was the BEST! Our Akita, Koa, isn’t always the easiest or friendliest fella but he took to Myra very quickly! Myra understood his little quirks and asked appropriate questions during the meet and greet. Koa is a big guy - so having someone who feels confident in walking a big dog was huge for us. Myra was just that!!! Totally reliable. Koa got his walks, spent plenty of time outside and seemed to have a great time with Myra. Myra also sent pictures and updates often which was so great for me and helped me relax much more on vacation. When we returned home we had a clean house and a happy dog - what more could you ask for! I highly recommend Myra and am so happy to have found her and will rebook in the future. Thank you Myra for being so kind, patient and understanding with Koa and allowing us to relax as well!!”

“Wenjie did so well with our cranky old dog, taking care of the dog and apartment equally. He is cheery, responsive, and responsible, and we would book him again for Henry in a heartbeat”

“Rong was super responsive, timely, and communicative! She took great care of my pup and made sure to follow through on every request I made of her! My place was spotless when I got back and I will definitely ask her to look after Marco again!”

About: I am an undergraduate student at UC Berkeley studying Political Science. I have several years of experience cat and dog sitting for various friends and family members. Most recently, I attended to a family friend's two cats, spending quality time with them each day, feeding them, playing with them, and clearing out their litter boxes. In the past, I have also walked dogs and dog-sitted while owners were on vacation. As a pet owner myself, I enjoy spending time with cats and dogs and am extremely attentive to their needs. Additionally, I have experience following multi-step instructions regarding pet care that are suited to the owners' preferences. I have lots of free time given that my class schedule is going to be light this year. When I'm at school, I don't get to be with my family pet, so I would love to bring cats and dogs into my daily/weekly routine. I treat every pet as if they were my own and always follow the owner's routine as closely as possible. I know that consistency helps pets feel comfortable, so I make sure they receive their meals on schedule, get plenty of fresh water, regular potty breaks, exercise, playtime, and lots of attention and affection. When caring for pets in a client's home, I respect both the pet's routine and the owner's home. I'll keep you updated with photos and messages so you can have peace of mind while you're away. If pets are staying in my home, they'll have a clean, safe, and comfortable environment with plenty of supervision. I'll make sure they get exercise, enrichment, and a calm place to rest, while monitoring them closely for any changes in behavior or health. My goal is to make every pet feel safe, happy, and loved while their family is away.

“We loved having Vivian around. She came to our place while me and my husband were traveling and took really good care of our dogs. She texted us everyday and let us know how everything was going. She also left the house tidy and everything in order. We’ll definitely contact her to stay here again on our next trip. Thanks Vivian”

“Cameron was very lovely! Our pup can be a little shy and timid. However, in the short time he had, he was able to eventually build trust and create a bond. We really appreciate him staying in touch during Enzo’s care and giving up assurance with frequent updates. We also appreciate his calm and positive attitude.”

Eric S.

“Lucy was so responsive and was such a warm and kind presence that my dog immediately felt comfortable. Thank you again for coming in on such short notice!!”

“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.”

“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!”

Jessica R.

“Aunt Tania is our kitty’s favorite—we always know our baby is in great hands. She goes above and beyond as both a cat and house sitter, sending daily photos, watering plants, and leaving our home spotless. She even adds the sweetest welcome-home notes. We highly recommend her!”
