House Sitting Seminary

“My chihuahua and sisters German shepherd/black lab mix loved having Angelique stay with them during our weekend away. Angelique was so kind to do a visit ahead of time, was very communicative, and organized her schedule around our dogs. My dog loves to cuddle and definitely got all of the love from Angelique. We’d love to have her back to stay at our place with cooper in the future.”

“Johnatan took care of my dog for 2 weeks. He’d feed her and walk her twice a day. He was always respectful and kept me posted about my dog’s activities. He washed the linens before departing and even gave my dog a quick bath (he forgot the blow-drying part though). As much as I’d like to give him 5 stars, there’s still room for improvement as he forgot to leave the sliding door open for the dog to go outside leading to the dog peeing and popping inside of the house. He sometimes took 8+ hours to get back home and a couple of nights he wasn’t able to return at all and my dog slept alone. The latter due to he working part time at a place located 1 hr away from our home. Overall, a thrustful boy who just needs to get more experience.”

“Christine was wonderful and kept me informed with everything that was going on at my house. When I got home, the dogs were calm, which to me is a good sign of a caring sitter.”

“Diana did great with our dog, who doesn’t always warm up to new folks! She also left our home looking spotless, which was so appreciated. Would definitely hire again!”

Kevin & Aoife H.

“Aymye did a great job keeping my anxious dog company!”

“Josie was great, spent 5 days taking care of our home and our two pups. Gave regular updates, and left the house immaculate. Thanks Josie! Hope to have you help us again in the future!”

“Dane was amazing and I’m so relieved to have found such a great sitter on our first go at Rover. He’s extremely communicative and took amazing care of both our cat and dog. We received frequent updates and photos and knew both our babies were in good hands. Our dog was extremely well exercised, and Dane went above and beyond to still check in and greet our cat (while giving her space) who doesn’t do well with people. Dane also went above and beyond to leave our house neater than when he first arrived! Would highly recommend Dane, and I’m so glad to know we have a reliable, trusted sitter for future vacations!”

“We were so happy that Alyssa was available to watch our cat and house sit! She is super friendly and she clearly communicated with us during our time away. We got regular updates on our kitty and when we returned to our house it was neat and tidy. We would definitely book her again!”

Lisa J.

“Laura was awesome with our pup Charlie! Sent us lots of pictures and updates and communication was a breeze. Will definitely book with her again!”

Jessica W.

“Couldn’t recommend Eleanna more! She watched our dog and cat while we were away for a week and was very communicative the whole time. She sent us lots of pictures and made sure they both got lots of exercise and love.”

Maggie A.

“Book her without hesitation! It was the first time that my husband and I were having a dog sitter over our house so we were a little anxious, but Melina was extremely kind and helpful. She was sending a lot of pictures and updates of our puppy while my partner and I were out. Our little Sansa loved her! Plus she gave us a lot of advices about training and puppy behavior! THANK YOU SO MUCH!”

Gracia H.

“Cara was great with our babies. Got updates and cute pics. She took good care of them and our house during our trip. Will definitely recommend her.”

Johanna M.

“Nicky took great care of Callo, and was super responsive. She also left the house in great shape. I highly recommend her. Thank you, Nicky!”

Kellie D.

“I couldn’t have asked for a better cat sitter than Natasha! She spent the week with my cat while I was on vacation, and sent me updates throughout the week which was reassuring. She even cleaned up before leaving, which was wonderful! I highly recommend Natasha :)”

Sonja J.

“Sarah was great! She went above and beyond watching Martin. He obviously felt comfortable and took a liking from the photos that were sent. Highly recommended.”

Daniel N.

“Salina was very punctual and communicative. She stayed at our house and took care of our senior dog and outdoor cats for 2 days and we felt totally comfortable with her making sure everyone was well taken care of!”

Nitya V.

“Tina helped us out with our two dogs for a second time, this time pet sitting in our home. Tina was great, sent us updates, and was generally easy to work with. Would definitely hire Tina again. Thank you Tina!”

Brandon C.

“Tami had a GREAT connection with Lucy. She quickly figured out Lucy's personality, her likes/dislikes, favorite activities (going to the beach) and also the ins and outs of my apartment and building. Tami did a wonderful job of sending me pictures at least twice a day so that I could feel at peace that my girl was happy and being taken good care of.”

Rafael C.

“Bola is just lovely. She is considerate, thoughtful, and took amazing care of our dogs (on short notice no less!) We had never hired a house sitter before and are now wondering why we never did, when there are people like Bola in the world. I feel like I owe them a ride to the airport. Like not even OAK. I owe them a ride to SFO or San Jose. Thank you Bola. We’ll be hoping you’re available every time.”

About: I’ve been housesitting and taking care of pets for about 10 years. I work remotely full-time so this allows me to spend time with the fur babies and be present. I’m comfortable with anything thrown my way. I have taken care of big and small dogs, cats, bunnies, hamsters, etc. I also have experience administering medicine if needed. I work remotely so I am able to spend loads of time with your fur babies. I’m available every day and any time. I teach dance classes as well but that usually is only twice a week for an hour or so. I will make sure your pets are safe with me and follow any instructions you may leave. I treat your pet as if they were mine and will make sure to check in with you to give you peace of mind, if you wish.
