House Sitting in Shafter, Oakland

“Christina was very kind and not afraid of my two very large English Mastiffs. Their size intimidates most everyone, but not Christina! She is truly a dog lover. ”

“Ashley was wonderful. She took great care of our Murphy, sent messages and pictures, and left great feedback. I would not hesitate to ask her to housesit again.”

“Samantha took care of my 5 year old Vizsla pup for a multi day housesitting stay and was just incredible - her communication leading up to and during the stay was impeccable, she was punctual, attentive to details, sent me multiple pictures and check ins a day, took amazing care of the house, and overall just showered my dog with love and listened to every instruction I left and beyond. I would 110% highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and trustworthy sitter. Thank you Samantha and I will definitely be re-booking with you!”

“Great stay with Gus over a holiday week. Our dog is a rottie and Gus knew just how to manage her; she was cozying up to him in no time. She was well cared for, the house was super tidy and clean when we returned. Gus sent regular updates to let us know that all was well. We will definitely try and hire him again!”

“Maren has cared for my cat Penelope many times over the past year, and I can’t recommend her enough. She treats every pet like her own — thoughtful, attentive, and full of helpful advice (she even shared tips for Penelope’s stiff joints!). She makes sure pets have enrichment and playtime too, so Penelope is always happy, healthy, and relaxed when I return.”

“Victoria was the best! She sent pictures daily and was extremely communicative. Our pets were well cared for! We will 100% be asking her to come back next time we are gone.”

“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.”

“Nicky was amazing with Kevin! We came home to a happy boy and very clean house. She is extremely communicative and gave us daily reviews. We cannot wait to use her again!!!”

“This was my second time working with Zsa-Zsa and she was great! Her communication leading up to the stay and during the stay was thorough and detailed. My dogs were excited to see her when she arrived at the house; that’s always a good sign!”

“Anny and Shuhan were responsible and reliable, and Anny provided regular updates on my dog. My dog can get a little depressed when we aren’t there and Anny went out of her way to make sure she was ok. It was wonderful knowing she was in such loving and competent hands. They took great care of our house too! We will definitely hope Anny can sit for us in the future!”

“Sara came to the rescue when our other house sitter hurt her leg a few days before we were scheduled to go out of town. She is a great pack leader and put our bully Charlie in his place very quickly. She was tidy and we came home To a happy and relaxed pup. We would work w Sara again!”

“If you're leaving town for a trip, having Hilary care for your pet is the only way to do it! For over 5 years, Hillary has watched our dog a handful of times. We feel completely at ease when Hillary is in charge! She is incredibly trustworthy and absolutely adores dogs. Hilary is a great communicator, extremely punctual, and leaves her home clean and in order. Not only is Hilary great with dogs, she's great with people. She's truly a joy to be around!”

“Audrey is an animal whisperer! She cares deeply for all animals in her care and is exceptionally attuned to their needs. I never hesitate to have her care for our pets and they are always so happy to have her around. I can't say enough about her genuine kindness and care towards furry friends.”

“Kimberly did a great job with my 2 cats! She played with them, kept their routines, and sent pictures and videos. She also took great care of my home. I definitely recommend her.”

“I had Esteban house sit to look after my big, rambunctious dog Sable for 6 days. Not only did Esteban take amazing care of my dog, he left the house in incredible condition. All my dog’s needs were met, and he sent regular pupdates. I’m a very anxious person and it was my first time using Rover, but Esteban put me at ease and I am so glad I decided to go with him. I would 100% use Esteban again if I ever leave town. I believe it’s safer and easier on my dog than boarding her at a dog hotel. You da man, Esteban!”

“Kimmy was wonderful! She stayed at our house while we were out of town - took great care of our dog, was very communicative, took her on long walks and shared photos and updates throughout the stay. We’d recommend Kimmy and hope to work with her again!”

“Lisette was wonderful, she took great care of Zoe and left the house very clean and organized. Would definitely book again whenever we are out of town.”

“Dennis is a considerate and kind person, a wonderful dog sitter for us and our German Shepherd. Our GSD is older and requires a cart when being walked. Dennis took the time to ask for what he needed to feel comfortable getting her into and out of the cart, making sure he had the dietary and medication needs defined, and meeting with us to ensure everyone thought it was a good fit. I highly recommend Dennis if you need a pet sitter! He left our home just as it was when we left, and we had the peace of mind of knowing our special-needs dog was well cared for while we were away.”

“Jon helped us with a last-minute need for dog-sitting and walking, and we’ll certainly be asking for his help again! Our dogs aren’t the easiest pair, but I could tell that they were treated with love, care, and attention.”

“Irina was amazing with Loki. She kept us up to date with great photos. Our dog loved her and misses her now that we are back. Will definitely use Irina again.”
