Pet Sitting & Drop Ins in Shepherd Canyon, Oakland

“Madeline is so lovely! She is kind, prompt, and responsible, and our dachshund absolutely loves her. She sends thoughtful notes and photographs, and it’s a joy to work with her. We will definitely be reaching out to her again and can’t wait to work with her in the future :)”

“This is the second time Celeste has helped us with insulin for our dog. Celeste is great! She was on time and great with our dog. We highly recommend her!”

“Zsa-Zsa has been great with drop-in care for our two dogs (one is a five-month-old puppy). She's sweet with the dogs, they have a great time with her, and I really appreciate her communication and reliability.”

“Shanley taking care of Shane is a real treat for him, and relaxing for me. He always is more calm when I get back than he was when I left. Shanley is super!”

“Korin was on time and communicative! She was great with Tater and I really appreciated how patient she was when Tater was WAY over excited when she came over for a meet and greet. Would love to book her again in the future!”

“I appreciated the detailed, but brief, updates from Natalie, as well as multiple pictures. Natalie was patient and kind with our cat who can be a bit skittish. Came home to a happy kitty. Thanks Natalie!”

“Second time booking with JJ, and we came home to one happy cat! It’s clear that there was time, attention and plenty of activity for our little chatter box Bean!”

“I am delighted to share my heartfelt testimony about Alejandra, who truly is the best dog nanny in the world. Her exceptional care and genuine love for dogs are unmatched. Alejandra's dedication to the well-being of every dog in her care is evident in the way she interacts with them. She treats each dog with the utmost respect and affection, ensuring they feel loved and secure. Alejandra's kindness and patience are extraordinary. She understands the unique needs and personalities of every dog, providing them with the individualized attention they deserve. Her positive attitude and gentle touch have a remarkable impact on the dogs, making them feel comfortable and happy. Moreover, Alejandra's passion for animals goes beyond mere duty. She has an innate ability to connect with dogs on an emotional level, which fosters a deep bond of trust and affection. Her love for dogs is palpable, and it shines through in everything she does.”

“Ainsley was very accommodating to our dog Benny. Sometimes I get called last minute to pack up and head out of town for my meetings, and Ainsley was always quick to respond in a timely manner. Often times it seems like Benny doesn't want him to leave, so that has been quite reassuring.”

“we love cassandra!”

“Lauren is awesome! She was available to meet last minute as I had some weekend plans that I needed doggy care for. She’s very kind and detailed and I van tell Noodles feels really comfortable around her gentle nature!”

“Ares has always been the one who has taken care of my two dogs. He has always helped me through difficult seasons and on my vacations.”

“Whether it's for a walk or overnight pet sitting stay, our pup is always excited to see Ruby. We are grateful to have found such a reliable, trustworthy and kind pet sitter 🙂 Ruby loves our dog and always makes sure she has her medications, and supplements daily (she has OA due to an elbow deformity which was corrected with surgery when she was younger). She also preps the Toppls, and Lick mats for all of our pup’s meals, and takes photos and sends updates. Ruby is frequently in our neighborhood as she walks some dogs daily, and our pup always recognizes her/her car from a distance! Our pup gives Ruby amazing welcome every time they meet! We know Ruby takes really good care of our pup while we are away on our vacation and that really gives us peace of mind!”

“Kit did an excellent job taking care of my dog, Derby! She was a loving caregiver and very responsible. I felt safe knowing that my pet was in good and capable hands”

“Kate is awesome! My socially reserved pups love her so much. She’s super communicative and dependable! We LOVE Kate! We will continue to use Kate anytime we can!”

“I have known Albert for 31 years. It was only about nine years ago that I discovered that like myself, we both shared a love of dogs. This is when I met Albert's little beagle dog...driving several hours to pick the puppy up. The two are inseparable, like me and my shih tzu-chihuahua mix. I know for a fact Albert would give care to any dog belonging to any owner, if he is tasked.”

“Angela took on the job of checking in on my cat with just a few days notice. She sent updates and multiple pictures after each visit, and made sure my fur baby was well cared for while I was away! I’ll definitely book again with her in the future.”

“I’ve known Michelle for years and she’s always been such a avid animal lover. She has cared for my dog and two cats many times since 2021 and has always been phenomenal. She’s very attentive and always providing updates so that I know my pets are being well cared for. You can tell Michelle has so much love and passion for taking care of animals.”

“Sophia was amazing! Very great at communication and she made me feel very safe. I would definitely hire her again. My cat loved her! 10/10!!”
