House Sitting in Piedmont, Oakland

“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.”

“I’m so happy Korin had availability to watch Leo and Oscar! I had never left one of my dogs with a sitter before and he can be shy and nervous. She was great with both of them, super communicative, professional, and friendly. Can’t recommend enough!”

“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.”

“Christine is a great sitter. Remi got stitches on his foot a week before Christine's visit, and his exercise still needs to restricted. Christine was great at ensuring Remi's exercise was restricted while also finding ways to play games and keep him engaged. It's obvious Remi had a great time with her. I trust my dog is in good care when he's with Christine.”

“Shelly is awesome! We will have her back in a heartbeat! The Big Dogs loved her (and so did the Cats although they didn’t ask her). She is super responsible and yet laid back. She is now part of the Pack!”

“Noel is the best. I feel so comfortable leaving Nala with her and know that Nala is getting the very best care. She’s very professional and courteous as well and always goes above and beyond.”

“Natalie was so wonderful taking care of our of puppy and two cats. We left her tons of instructions and she handled it beautifully. We felt so relieved to have her watching our fur babies. She was very professional throughout this process! Thank you Natalie!!”

“Jasmine was very responsive when messaged and willing to take steps to ensure the kitties were able to maintain their indoor/outdoor routine. She asked questions regularly and took on extra care steps such as watering plants and letting in maintenance folks. Would recommend to others.”

“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!”

“Zsa-Zsa is professional and a delight to work with. I look forward to working with them again !”

“Sophie did a fantastic job sitting for our house, two dogs, 6 chickens and many plants! She's a great communicator and enthusiastic pet lover. She sent daily dog photos and kept the house so clean it was hard to tell anyone had been there. I will highly recommend her for house and pet sitting!”

“Lauren was excellent! She took great care of our two dogs for 4 days and shared plenty of updates with us the whole time, which we really appreciated. She spent a lot of quality time with them just hanging out, and gave our high energy pup lots of ball time to tire her out. We definitely recommend her!”

“Liz was wonderful. My dog Ellie took to her right away. Great questions and communication during the stay. Will definitely reach out again - thank you!”

“Emma was so great! Leo was happy to see her again. She also went above and beyond this round as we used her as our rover during our wedding weekend and she brought Leo to the venue for photos and ceremony. She was a great handler for him and so patient with our timeline. Highly recommend”

“Shanley was wonderful during our recent 10-day house sit. She was super communicative, sent daily pictures of our cat and dog, and cared for our house like it was her own. We couldn’t recommend her enough!”

“Val is amazing with our two pups. She has house sit for us a couple times now -- thorough, prompt, and very responsive. We get plenty of pictures, and Val always leaves the house cleaner than we left it -- she's even surprised us with flowers on our return. Can't recommend Val enough!”

“Dennis was a wonderful house and pet sitter for us while we were away for a week. He took good care of our two dogs and two cats so we could actually have a relaxing vacation, knowing they and our home were in good hands. We will definitely book him again.”

“Ruby is such a phenomenal dog walker. Our big and little pups got better at being walked. I used to struggle with pulling, but ever since Ruby started walking our two dogs, I have an easier time when it's my turn. Ruby was punctual and communicative, and she even started taking our pups to Mills College and send us pictures. We felt they were safe and comfortable, because they run to her whenever she arrives.”

“Nikki was very gentle with my two elderly dogs, dispensed medicine and special diet as needed, and kept me informed with pictures of Norton & Ziggy. I highly recommend Nikki!!!”

“**Testimonial for Kyle on Rover** I recently had the pleasure of hiring Kyle to watch my two cats and dog while I was away, and I couldn't be happier with how everything went. Right from the start, Kyle's friendly attitude and obvious love for animals made me feel at ease. He took the time to get to know each of my pets and understand their quirks, making sure they were comfortable and happy while I was gone. Kyle kept me updated with regular messages and photos, which was such a relief. It made it so much easier to enjoy my time away knowing my pets were in good hands. He didn't just stick to the basics of feeding and walking them—he played with them and gave them plenty of love and attention. When I came back, my pets were relaxed and content, which says a lot about the care they received. I can't recommend Kyle enough to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter. He did an amazing job, and I'll definitely be asking for his help again in the future.”
