House Sitting in Sheffield Village, Oakland

“Thanks for taking such great care of Sofia!”

“Dea was so great with Loki, I could tell from the photo and video updates that he was very comfortable and happy! Would absolutely rebook her services again and would definitely recommend Dea to anyone!”

“Jill is so awesome. She watched our little chihuahua mix and our outdoor cats for a little over a week. She was super communicative and thoughtful. Our animals were well cared for. We felt extremely comfortable having her stay at our house. And like all her other reviews, we were super grateful and amazed on how well she left our house! It was so clean, maybe more clean than when we left! Hopefully we can book Jill again.”

“Giselle did a great job house sitting for our dog over the weekend. Our dog seemed minimally stressed (we just moved and it’s hard for him to be in a new environment), she sent great updates, and left the house clean. Will definitely use her again!”

“Devyn took care of our dog overnight and took excellent care of her. She diligently reviewed the care instructions in advance and was very communicative. We are new dog parents and it was our first time leaving our dog and Devyn was extremely understanding and accommodating. She left our house in good order. Would highly recommend her services and we hope to use her again!”

“Our elderly dog was safe and happy while we were on an extended vacation out of the country. Jason communicated with us as we discussed prior to our trip and everything was taken care of just like we planned.”

About: I have over 30 years experience caring for animals, pet sitting, and dog walking. I also have veterinary technician schooling experience. All in all, I just love animals! I teach during the weekdays and can pet sit after 3:30 pm on weekdays, M-F. I have open availability for weekends with 72 hours advance notice. I strive to care for your pet/pets the way you would care for them. Whatever feed schedule walk routine, or other activities your pet requires and enjoys is what I will do for your pet!

“I am happy Kenya was able to be with my pups. We have had Kenya sit for a few over nights and each time she has been very communicative, sends picture updates and is on time. We will definitely ask her to stay with our home and pups again!”

“Sarah and her partner Embry really came to our rescue when our original house sitter bailed halfway through our time away. We reached out to them day-of with an urgent request for a new house sitter and they were very responsive and understanding of our situation and so patient as we worked together to coordinate a remote handoff of our spare key and house/pet care instructions. Even though they were just finishing a stay with an existing client, they came over as fast as they could and went above and beyond with their care. They checked in often (which was so appreciated since we were abroad and scrambling to make sure everything at home was ok), followed our pet care instructions to a tee, and even took the time to do some cleaning/laundry which we were not expecting but were so thankful for. Connecting with Sarah and Embry turned a stressful situation into a positive experience and we're happy to have met such reliable and caring sitters! We will definitely be reaching out to them for help again in the future.”

“Either a quick walk to let the dogs out and stretch their legs, or a week long stay at the house, Janine is excited to provide excellent love, care, attention, and support to all pets. The dogs and cat are super excited to have her come around and becomes very sad when she leaves. I don’t think they notice I’m gone. She sets an alarm to ensure one of my dogs get the meds he needs on time every day while I’m away and posts pictures and updates so that I can see they are well fed and cared for. Added bonus, she’s great with plants and taking care of the house as well as the pets. Whenever I’m working late and know the dogs need to be let out, I know I can always call Janine and she’s more than happy to go the extra mile to not only take them out but play with them and give them love and feed them if I know I’ll be home later.”

“My pets loved Lissette! She was great about sending updates & very respectful of our home”

“Tina has watched my dog multiple times. She is very patient with my Australian Shepherd and always communicates well. Regular updates, walks and feeding are all communicated and I’m thankful I don’t have to board my dog. I would highly recommend her with any of your pets.”

“Stephanie came through extremely last minute for my family when we were in desperate need of help! It was a stressful situation and she came in and saved the day while all family members were out of town. Thank you so much for taking care of Finn, we are grateful for you!”

“I would highly recommend Rosie to be a dog caregiver. Not only is she responsible, yet she is also really attentive and caring. These are all traits I would consider to be perfect for taking care of your animals. I have seen first hand how she has cared for her sisters dogs, for she acts just like they are her own. I know she would do the same for your animals. Your dog would be well cared for and loved in the care of Rosie.”

“Ashlyn was an absolute delight. She treated our pets and home with so much care and respect. Our animals (cat & dog) stuck to her like glue. She made sure our dog got thourough and senic walks & our cat got all the treats her little heart desired. Thank you Ashlyn!”

“Marlene did a great job taking care of Pepper after we were out of town for a week! She was punctual and made sure Pepper got plenty of snuggles. She also was very kind about bringing in packages and kept the house really clean and tidy. We will definitely book with her again!”

“You can tell Ariena loves your dog. He is always well taken care of and she goes above and beyond to make sure he has a special time while you’re away. I would highly recommend her to stay with your animals!”

“Holly is not used to having someone in her home. She is protective. Millan came over twice to meet Holly and help her adjust to a new person. Holly was wary the first night but didn't growl, that was amazing. She got along with Holly and was even able to walk her, that was also a first. Holly is not mean but at 140 pounds she can be intimidating. Milan approached her just right and was never scared. She sent me pictures and updates. I would absolutely hire her again and Holly would gladly have her back.”

“This was our first sitting with Destini and Benjamin. Prior to the appointment, they scheduled a meet and greet with us, so they would get to know the house and our pup. From the get go, they were responsive and great to interact with. They took great care of our dog and house, and left things neat and clean. Our dog looked very happy and well cared for, and wasn’t as anxious when we got home as he usually is on dog day cares. We will definitely reach out to them again in the future.”

“Diana helped us out last minute by watching Ralphie a few days before Christmas. She communicated regularly with us throughout the stay and brought walking outfits for Ralphie. We’re very grateful to her!”
