House Sitting Southgate

“Francis was a fantastic sitter, providing high-attention care of both our pets and our house while we were away. He took careful notes, tracked medications, proved highly flexible with unexpected changes, and even managed to make quick friends with our elusive cats. Francis is the first sitter to interview us during the meet-and-greet, rather than the other way around. From the moment we met, we knew that Francis was a different kind of sitter. Francis is a caretaker. We strongly recommend Francis for your pet and house sitting needs.”

“Jack was great watching violet. I was happy with the service. He communicated well and followed instructions and is trustworthy. Violet 🐶 loves him as well. I will definitely use Jack again in the near future. Thank you Jack, happy to have found you :)”

“Amy is the best dog sitter we could have asked for. I pride myself on how much I take my dogs on adventures but Amy even surpassed what I do for my own dog! Amy took my dog on numerous wonderful adventures while sending me amazing pictures from their adventures. When Amy left she left a gorgeous hand drawn picture of our dog. I recommend Amy to anyone with a pet that they like and want to leave in good hands. 5 stars. A+ dog sitting! Will hire again!”

“Angie was great. She was very responsive and kept us updated throughout the entire time she took care of both our pups. The pups were healthy and happy and our home was kept clean. We would have her house sit for us again.”

“Chelsea is incredibly responsive, reliable, and easy to communicate with. It’s obvious she genuinely loves animals, and she took excellent care of my fur babies while I was away. I had complete peace of mind knowing they were in such good hands. I highly recommend her and would absolutely book with her again!”

He did a wonderful job caring for her, keeping her engaged and also following our routines. We would definitely use Kevin in the future.”

“We had such a great experience with Vivian and can confidently recommend her! She pulled through for us last minute and made us feel so secure leaving our dog in her care. She, daily, sent photos and videos of him and always let us know when she was feeding and walking him. She is so responsible and took amazing care of him!”

Isabelle M.

“Michelle was absolutely fabulous! She was able to watch my two dogs on very short notice while I was in Oakland to visit family. My dogs loved her! She took great care of them, taking them on multiple walks throughout the day and providing attention when needed. She we be the first person I reach out to when I am in the Oakland area again. Thank you Michelle!”

“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.”

Thomas C.

“Tori was absolutely wonderful. Our dog is very skittish and does not warm up to people easily, but within minutes of meeting Tori, she was affectionate and clearly comfortable. Tori was incredibly responsive, responsible, proactive, attentive, and respectful throughout the entire stay. She kept us updated, took amazing care of our dog, and treated our home with real care. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing both our dog and house were in such capable hands. We cannot recommend Tori highly enough and are already planning to book her again to stay at our house when we travel later this summer.”

“Darya was amazing! She sent me multiple daily updates with photos. The animals loved her right away which was very reassuring and she left my house very clean and even stripped the sheets! I will be using her again.”

“Stephanie is a wonderful sitter! She took care of my 14 year old pit bull for the weekend and I came home to a tidy home and a very happy puppy. She also sent some cute photos! Will definitely be using her again.”

“Paulina was able to take a late request to watch my 2 cats. She interacts alot with my cats, which I appreciate, as one of my cats NEEDS lots of attention. They look forward to her visits with them.”

About: Animals have always been a passion of mine. I have over 11 years on and off and 5 years of hands-on experience caring for both dogs and cats. I've worked as a veterinary assistant in multiple settings, including a feline-focused practice and a facility that specialized in dog boarding and walking. These experiences taught me how to safely handle animals with different personalities, energy levels, medical needs, and comfort levels. Because of my veterinary background, I'm comfortable recognizing changes in behavior, stress, discomfort, and potential health concerns. I understand the importance of routine, patience, and positive interactions, and I strive to make every pet feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owner is away. Whether your pet needs an energetic walk, playtime, medication support, extra attention, or simply a calm and reliable companion, I'll treat them with the same love and respect I would my own. My goal is to provide dependable care and give pet parents peace of mind knowing their furry family member is in good hands. I currently work full time at the zoo so my time is limited to before and after work and my weekends but I will do what I need to to meet your needs. I will always follow the owners instructions to a T and even go above and beyond to try and ease the clients worries in whatever ways I need to.

“Had a great experience. Our 2 huskies are very much like siblings, complete opposites of each other. Daryl was great at making sure everything was clear ahead of time, adapted to small situations during and communicating throughout. Would absolutely recommend to anyone.”

“Mai was great with our dogs. I am glad I found Mai so we could have a peace of mind when we travel. She communicated well and was realiable. She also left our house neat and clean. We will definitely get her services again.”

“Amazing pet sitter! I had a last minute trip and was scrambling to find a sitter. Lauren sent daily photos and took great care of my pets and my home. Will definitely contact again!”

Emily S.

“We had a great experience with our dog /house sitter, Julia! She was reliable, caring, and kept us updated with photos and messages throughout the stay. She also kept our home clean and treated it with respect. It was clear our dog was happy, well cared for, and received plenty of attention and love. We felt completely at ease knowing our pet was in such good hands. We would definitely recommend her and would happily book with her again!”
