House Sitting in Upper Dimond, Oakland

“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!”

“Natalie was so wonderful taking care of our of puppy and two cats. We left her tons of instructions and she handled it beautifully. We felt so relieved to have her watching our fur babies. She was very professional throughout this process! Thank you Natalie!!”

“Madeline was such a great doggy sitter! I have two pups, both with their own special personalities (one is a little shy and anxious and the other is a little reactive to strangers). She came to do a meet and greet so they would feel comfortable the day of, and she was so patient and sweet with them. She was very attentive and listened to all the details we were sharing with her. She seemed super confident and experienced. For the day of (we were actually getting married!), we did not have to worry one bit about them and she sent us many cute pictures to update us on how they were doing. They looked at ease :) Would definitely recommend her and will contact her again if we ever need a dog sitter. :)”

When I came home, my kitty looked vibrant, healthy and happy. While I was gone, my cat Stripes even hunted and brought hannah a mouse. Stripes has not done that in years! I am planning my next trip!”

“Aurea is an outstanding pet caregiver who goes above and beyond. She cared for my cat, Chela, with incredible attention to detail, ensuring she was well-fed, entertained, and comfortable. Aurea regularly updated me with photos and messages, which gave me peace of mind while I was away. Her genuine love for animals shines through in everything she does, and it's clear she treats every pet as if they were her own. I wholeheartedly recommend Aurea as a responsible, loving, and reliable pet sitter. Chela and I couldn't be happier!”

“Rebecca is fabulous! I am quite particular about dog/house sitters and leave notes, as we view our dog as part of the family. Rebecca is reliable, she followed all of my detailed instructions regarding a particular diet regiment and walking routine. Rebecca is caring and clearly loves animals, our dog was sad to see her go. Rebecca is trustworthy, I am free of worry whenever she takes care of our dog. I highly recommend Rebecca!”
