“Esteban is awesome! He takes good care of Sunny, my terrier puppy. And sends me lots of detailed updates and wonderful photos. Sunny seems very relaxed and happy after walks/hangs with Esteban. Thank you so very much for all that you do!”


“Ashlyn was super communicative and good with my dog. I also appreciate her flexibility on change times for a cooler time of day during a heat wave. I will definitely hire her again next time I’m out of town.”


About: I'm a nature lover and natural animal lover—especially doggies. Over the years, I’ve loved and cared for my my own pets: dogs, a rabbit and a cat. Currently, I help care for my aging mom’s little senior Shitzu: weekly walks at a nearby parks, vet care and lite grooming. Comfortable with harness attaching and removal. My own beloved dog passed away a couple of years ago, I still enjoy encounters with other dogs on my daily walks, giving ear rubs and back scratches—dogs just bring me joy. Currently, I’m retired, so my availability is flexible for you and your pet’s needs. I have experience caring for various breeds and size (small to medium size dogs), but I can handle larger senior dogs. I routinely walk at various designated parks and trails in the East Bay. When I pet-sit in my apartment, I inquire about pets regular routine first: walking, feeding, and medication (if necessary). I require they provide their pet’s own: bedding, sleepwear, food and treats and up to date vaccines. I also ask for emergency info: Vet, pet-owner (s), and an alternate contact. Finally, I will send regular updates via text, pictures or videos of your pets outings or stays—live if you like!

“Stephanie has been so great with my dog Maya. After starting a new job and moving to a new city, I didn’t have any support to help with my dog. Stephanie has been so helpful with all these changes. Maya can be a bit nervous around new people but she warmed up to Stephanie really fast and gets so excited to see her! Stephanie is so great- she is a very reliable person, trustworthy, a great communicator and great with dogs. I’m so happy I found her and that Maya really enjoys her company!”


“Christine is detail-oriented and incredibly caring in her approach! She was communicative throughout, asked good questions as needed, and took extra care to ensure my dog Ellie trusted her and had a good time. An excellent helping hand!”


“Erin is fantastic and takes really good care of my dog, Sansa, when I’m away. She is punctual, reliable, provides regular updates and is someone I trust to be with Sansa and makes sure she is cared for!”


“Natalie is super communicative and easy to work with. She’s very respectful in my home and always confirms all the tasks before leaving. I am definitely a repeat customer !”


About: Hello! My name is Ashley, and I recently moved to the beautiful city of Oakland and am offering my pet sitting services again! Over the years, I’ve had the joy of providing pet sitting in Hawaii, Washington, D.C., San Francisco, Seattle, and Chicago. I provide both dog and cat sitting, and I’ve had a love for animals since I was young. I first started offering pet sitting services while living in D.C. when I found myself without a furry friend of my own. Since then, I’ve gained experience caring for pets of all ages—from playful puppies and kittens to sweet seniors. I currently work a part-time schedule, which makes me flexible with availability and responsive to your needs. Communication is very important to me—I’ll always keep you updated and follow any specific care instructions you provide. As a pet parent myself, I completely understand how nerve-wracking it can be to leave your beloved companion in someone else’s care. That’s why I do everything I can to make both pets and their owners feel comfortable and at ease. Whether it’s enjoying long walks around Lake Merritt with dogs who love exercise, or curling up with a cat who just wants some company, I make sure each pet feels safe, loved, and cared for. My goal is simple: to give you peace of mind and make sure your pets are happy while you’re away. I look forward to meeting you and your fur babies! I am currently working a part-time schedule and can be very flexible with my availability, making it easy to work around your schedule and your pet’s needs. When walking dogs, I always make their safety my top priority—using secure leashes, keeping a close eye on surroundings, and making sure they get the right balance of exercise and care. I’m also very respectful of people’s homes, treating them with the same care I would my own. You can trust that your pet and your space will always be safe with me.

Whether your pup needs a fun walk, some quality company while you’re away, or your horse needs grooming and care, I’m here to help. I treat every animal like family and can’t wait to meet your furry and hoofed friends!

Francesca S.
“I can’t recommend Francesca highly enough! From the moment we met, it was clear she had a natural connection with animals. Our dog, Cali is usually shy around new people, not an issue with Francesca, they bonded right away. Cali wasn’t just well taken care of, she was genuinely happy, which we could see from the daily updates, photos, and videos Francesca sent. Francesca truly goes above and beyond, treating every pet like her own. She’s reliable, attentive, and clearly has a deep love for animals. Knowing Cali was in such capable and loving hands gave us so much peace of mind. We’ll absolutely be booking with her again! She also takes care of and rides horses, so you know she's excellent with all pet sensibilities and can handle dogs no matter where they are on the aggression spectrum.”


Marie S.
“Marie is a caring, trustworthy person with a lifelong love for animals. She grew up with both dogs and cats, and her calm, loving presence around them is immediately clear. She’s attentive, responsible, and treats every pet as if they were her own. If you’re looking for someone who will care for your pet with genuine love and dedication, Marie is an outstanding choice.”
Piedmont dog parents share their Rover experiences
Hilary is very easy to work with and has great and prompt communication. She was able to gain some trust of my sensitive and shy dog in only a couple meetings. She's good at reading the situation and taking the time needed to build a connection with her, even staying a little longer to make sure it was smooth for my pup and her needs were met. Would definitely have her walk my pupper again.
