House Sitting in Patten, Oakland

“This was my first time using Rover and I was a little nervous because I didn’t know what to expect, and Madeline was phenomenal. My dog, Swiffy, loved her immediately and she sent me thorough updates of their time together which really helped put me at ease and I was able to enjoy my event knowing my dog was being well taken care of. I would highly recommend her.”

“Checkers seems to feel safe and loved whenever Melina cares for her. We love receiving photos while away. She’s a wonderful caregiver to our pup.”

“Grace stayed in my home and watched my two fur babies (5-month-old kitten and 3-year-old cat) for 10 days/9 nights and she truly did the most amazing job—I really can’t recommend her enough!! I’m new to Rover and was hesitant to have someone I don’t know stay in my home for that long but Grace was so kind, trustworthy, and thoughtful. She was very quick to respond to my messages and sent me thorough updates every other day with lots of adorable pictures of her playing with my cats, which made me so happy. My kitten is a ball of energy and is still learning how to navigate the litter box (sometimes she steps in her poop) and required some medication while I was away. Grace had no issues administering the medication, she did an awesome job monitoring the poop situation, and played with her a ton (my kitten is probably disappointed that I came home from my trip 😂). Also, I cleaned my home before I left and when I returned, it was just as clean (if not cleaner) than I left it. I will 100% be a repeat client! Grace is fantastic!!”

“Jill is so awesome. She watched our little chihuahua mix and our outdoor cats for a little over a week. She was super communicative and thoughtful. Our animals were well cared for. We felt extremely comfortable having her stay at our house. And like all her other reviews, we were super grateful and amazed on how well she left our house! It was so clean, maybe more clean than when we left! Hopefully we can book Jill again.”

“Wow, where do I start? Jana is such a great sitter, super communicative and anticipates my cats and my needs before I even ask them. She really sees my cats unique personalities, and I can tell from the photos she shared that they really trust her. She got my shyer cat who typically hides for days to sit with her on the very first day! She left my house sparkling clean. I trust Jana completely.”

“Qishu was amazing with our high energy dog and extremely communicative with us. We received lots of updates and pictures over all the days we were gone. We would unreservedly recommend Qishu to anyone!”

“Thanks for taking such great care of Sofia!”

“Dea was a super dog sitter for Nova. She was professional, communicative, smart, and took great care of our home and our dog. We look forward to having her back!”

“Alyssa is great! Jumped right in and was up to the challenge of caring for our puppy (house training, teething, mega energy, etc!)… She was super communicative, providing updates throughout our time away, and left our house spotless. We’re excited to work with Alyssa again, and highly recommend her for excellent, thorough care of your beloved pet(s)!”

“Devyn was phenomenal! She helped us out with the request to watch our pups on short notice and did a wonderful job at it. We couldn’t have asked for better care. Thank you, Devyn and we look forward to working with you again!”

“Katie was great with our two aussies for an overnight house sitting! they were tired and happy when we got home, and she left the house clean. Thanks so much Katie!”

“We are repeat customers for over a year. We continue to seek Jason’s help with our 2 year old rescue. Jason is so meticulous and keeps close attention to detail. Jason is able to track changes from month to month as our puppy has grown to changes from day to day, however Arlo may be feeling, especially with his separation anxiety. I can travel at ease knowing Jason is caring for my pup.”

“Lauren and Justin were so great watching my Lucky boy! They kept me updated everyday and sent me the cutest photos while I was away and even left me some cute polaroids of Lucky when I returned home! I returned to a very clean house which made my long journey home so much better! I will definitely have them watch Lucky again because I know he loved them and felt super comfortable with his new friends!”

“Christine has sat for Disco twice and has always been super communicative and caring for my little guy! She sends tons of photos and I know he's in good hands when I'm away. I was on a camping trip with no cell phone service and I didn't worry at all leaving him with Christine.”

“My dog is usually wary around strangers, and he was happily jumping up on Molly the first time he met her! I felt completely secure leaving him in her calm, capable care for almost 2 weeks. Molly was wonderfully communicative throughout the entire process, including sending photo and video updates. She also had to deal with unexpected crate rest the last three days when my dog happened to have a flare up of a condition during her stay. She dealt with taking him to the emergency vet with incredible grace and compassion, stayed with him as much as she possibly could and kept me abreast of the situation. She also took beautiful care of my home. I would highly recommend her!”

“Dennis is wonderful and we can’t wait to work with him again. He took great care of Bruno and our home. Dennis provided photos and updates on Bruno while we were away and our home was spotless when we arrived home. Highly recommend’”

“Hieremila is just amazing! I was super anxious about using Rover for the first time bc my 2yo pittie mix can be reactive to new people and dogs. But Hieremila was so great, she and her two dogs met with us at a dog park to introduce our dogs and made me so comfortable about the entire process! She sent me photos everyday and let me know that everything was going well. She is so calming and caring. I’m sure my pup had the most amazing vacation playing and cuddling with Hieremila, Togo, and Stygi! Thank youu! ?”

“Jillian was super for my old dog Shane. He immediately took to her on the meet and greet, and she quickly understood his personality and needs. Shane was very relaxed when I return from the two days away, indicating that her felt very comfortable with Jillian being here with him. She also left the house in very good order, including a couple of nice extra touches.”

“Caleb was thoughtful and attentive with our 1-year old energetic puppy. Our dog immediately loved him and then we got daily updates and knew that Caleb was taking good care of our dog. He house-sat and we will definitely want to have him back!”

“I've never seen a happier pet than Felix! It's obvious that Filmon puts their pet's well-being first. They provide the best care, from nutritious food and regular exercise to lots of love and attention. It's clear Felix is thriving in their care. Filmon is a compassionate and responsible caregiver that truly respects all animals.”
