Pet Sitting & Drop Ins in Rockridge, Oakland

“Madeline did a great job watching our 1 year old Zuko. She was very communicative and sent plenty of pictures! Even dealt with getting into our apartment after we had accidentally locked the door. Would recommend!”

“Shanley was great with my dog Shane. Wonderful attentive care! He was very relaxed when I got home thanks to her making him so comfortable.”

“Holly did a great job watching our cat Walter. She provided thorough updates and gave him lots of attention. I would recommend Holly's service and fully trusted Walter in her care. Looking forward to having Holly back soon!”

“Emily helped me out last minute when I needed a sister. It was clear to me that my sweet puppy boy was happy to be cared for by her. Emily’s energy and aura are very warm and I trusted her right away! Definitely recommend this sitter if you’re looking for someone you can trust to watch your pet closely. Especially if it’s a fresh pup!”

About: I have been caring for pets since I was a child. I have cared for dogs with physical disabilities and who require medications. I am also a nurse so feel very comfortable in the caregiving role. I work from home so have a reasonable amount of flexibility. I take my own dog for a walk twice a day and regularly visit dog parks for socialization. I have a fully enclosed deck/yard. We have lots of toys and balls for the dogs to play. My teen kids also love pets. They would enjoy playing with new pups if the owner's approve.

“Simone was very much what we needed while away. She made sure Harry had food and a clean litter box on a consistent basis she sent pictures to me as well which was appreciated. I highly recommend her services.”

“Jonathan and Chiel are amazing! This was my first time using Rover and it was a great experience. They communicated well, gave great updates and took great care of my dog. It was so nice to have peace of mind while on my trip. I will definitely use them again.”

“Sophie is lovely, and communication was great!”

“Shelly was a fantastic sitter. Very communicative, fantastic with our cats and super professional. Would highly recommend! Will be using Shelly again in the future.”

“Alison was our go-to sitter for our dog, Susan. She is attentive and responsible, and I knew that whenever we would be out of town, the house and the dog would be in great hands. I know she's also a loving dog mother herself. I totally trust her with my pets!”

“Laura was so conscientious with our two pandemic scaredy-cats! She took careful notes of all instructions, and texted them to me to make sure she had everything correct. She got one of them to warm up to her and managed to find our other expert hider, Maximo, and send us pics of him in his little hidey hole under our covers. One day, she had trouble finding Maximo. She had to leave for an appointment, but she actually came back later in the day to make sure she laid eyes on him to ease our nerves. Laura is a dedicated professional who also really cares about animals. I hope she will become our regular pet sitter, and would recommend her to anyone!”

“Terrific and great communication. Can tell my dog is super comfortable with him. My puppy has less anxiety since he has been walking him.”

“Hello, Angie has been a wonderful dog walker and sitter for me for the past 3 years. I have an elderly cockapoo that is 10 years old and sometimes I need to be out of my place. Therefore, Angie has never declined an offer to help! She is great with my dog and respectful in my place. Angie is very communicative and checks in with me when needed. She is thoughtful and loves animals! I would recommend her as a pet cargiver.”

“Renae was amazing with Almond! We came home to a very happy pup :) definitely recommend her for a walk and/or drop-in visit!”

“Margaret is a great cat mom and dog aunt! I would trust her with my pup Cooper for any amount of time. She is responsible, caring, and kind to all animals and humans. She will treat your fur babies like her own!”

“Cedric was on time, communicative and great with our dog (a big puppy) ! He has a great presence and was awesome at playing and being mellow :). We’ll definitely hire him again!”

“Alia is incredibly patient, caring, knowledgeable, and thorough as a pet caregiver. Her own dog is very well cared for and I highly recommend her services.”

“Elaine has looked after my cat Mimi twice now, and I could not recommend her highly enough! She got on so well with Mimi so quickly, and it’s obvious that she cares about the cats she looks after. She kept us well informed of how Mimi was doing – which was especially reassuring the first time we left Mimi because we were quite nervous about how she would get along with someone else! But we were put at ease so quickly, and we would definitely hire Elaine again.”

About: My family has loved dogs ever since I can remember! Coming from a large family we always had dogs running around bringing joy to our home. I’ve personally have owned or watch dogs for most of my life. Learning how to train, feed, and respond to their needs. From new pups to older senior dogs, I’ve seen and loved them all! I’m currently a student at UC Berkeley and would love to spend my out of classroom time with your pup! I’m free many morning and afternoons, and am willing to accommodate your schedule. You can count on me to offer and take care of your dog in a loving, patient, and fun manner! My number one priority is making sure your dog feels comfortable while joyfully awaiting your return!

“Brooke has cared for my beloved dog several times, while also housesitting. I would trust her with my dog and house again. She is responsible and really is loving and kind to animals.”
