House Sitting in Waverly, Oakland

“Amy was great. Pets were well cared for and calm when we returned. Photos gave us the insights to the animal moods, relieving the stress of worrying about them. House was well cared for and she deftly handled a broken light cover that crashed to the floor. Many thanks Amy! We will use your services again!”

“Hey, Natalie was great nano really seemed to like her, she was professional she showed up on time and was awesome. Even though it was super late notice she was on top of it. I’d definitely recommend her if anyone needs a sitter!”

“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.”

“Grey was fantastic with my older dog, Luna. I came home to a happy, relaxed dog. He was incredibly communicative and sent me wonderful updates and pictures throughout my trip. I will definitely rebook with him!!”

“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!”

“Grace stayed in my home and watched my two fur babies (5-month-old kitten and 3-year-old cat) for 10 days/9 nights and she truly did the most amazing job—I really can’t recommend her enough!! I’m new to Rover and was hesitant to have someone I don’t know stay in my home for that long but Grace was so kind, trustworthy, and thoughtful. She was very quick to respond to my messages and sent me thorough updates every other day with lots of adorable pictures of her playing with my cats, which made me so happy. My kitten is a ball of energy and is still learning how to navigate the litter box (sometimes she steps in her poop) and required some medication while I was away. Grace had no issues administering the medication, she did an awesome job monitoring the poop situation, and played with her a ton (my kitten is probably disappointed that I came home from my trip 😂). Also, I cleaned my home before I left and when I returned, it was just as clean (if not cleaner) than I left it. I will 100% be a repeat client! Grace is fantastic!!”

“We felt so comfortable leaving our dogs with Korin! She kept us updated and was super communicative. We came home to happy dogs and a clean home”

“Hyazinth is the cat sitting we’ve been searching for since moving to Oakland!! So kind & caring with our cats and home and so friendly & easy to communicate with.”

“Azar is a wonderful pet sitter. Highly recommend!!!”

“Just had Iris spend the weekend with my dog at our home! Iris was great!! She was super communicative and responsive. Iris was super willing and followed specific instructions I left. I have a high energy reactive dog and Iris was very willing to follow through with our routine and follow through with our current training.”

“Lina (Evangelina) did an excellent job looking after our pups! She did everything we asked and more! It was really easy coordinating the stay with her and she gave us a sense of confidence that our pups were in good hands! I would definitely recommend her.”

“Emily did such an amazing job with Kona. He experienced some pretty severe separation anxiety while she was with him and she handled the situation with so much kindness. Emily, we are so grateful for you!!”

“Katie was amazing with my dogs. One had had a dental 24 hours before and needed supervision and meds. She was also with them over 4th of July, and as you other dog pawrents know, it’s a scary time to be away from your pups. After meeting Katie briefly prior to the visit I felt so safe leaving them in her care. She left the place clean and well taken care of. Kind, conscientious, trustworthy and fabulous with dogs!”

“There aren’t enough words to express just how attentive and amazing Quishu is: Positive, dynamic personality with an ability to get zen when needed. She’s the kind of personality our beagles need. She followed all our doggie care and home instructions, it was such peace of mind. She sent frequent photos and videos which showed us that our adopted and often timid beagles trusted her, felt safe with her and were actually being their true goof ball selves. Most sitters think they’ll try to “fix” their issues which never works and creates a tense dynamic, but Qishu didn’t appear to judge us for all our instructions and expectations. She respected our requested level of care and the beagles and her bonded. Thank you Qishu!!”

“This was our second time working with Rachel and again it was a great experience. She communicates well and took great care of our pup and home.”

“Jiyeon stayed with my cats for 9 days, and I was so at ease having them in my home. They came over beforehand to meet us and the kitties and I could tell they had the best of vibes. They left the home spotless and my cats seemed really content. We also got delayed coming back due to weather conditions, and they were more than willing to stay as long as we needed. I really appreciate the understanding. And will definitely rehire them for future sittings. Thank you, Jiyeon!”

“Lulia did a wonderful job of watching Mak. She sent lots of pictures and updates throughout her stay and checked in with us anytime she would be away from the house for a longer period of time. Overall, very happy with Lulia and would gladly ask her to watch Mak again!”

“Qiana was absolute lifesaver! Handling our three pets is a total handful and Qiana handled it expertly! All of our babies are a bit challenging, our dog has very intense puppy energy, we have a giant rabbit who roams the house like a cat, and a cat who is very shy and she threw herself into handling it with ease! Felt super comfortable having her house sit as well and came home to everything perfectly today. Would absolutely recommend to anyone and would use her again anytime!”

“Beth was an excellent house/dog sitter for our pup! She was thorough, responsible, and very thoughtful. We appreciated her communication while we were gone, and coming back to a clean home when we returned made it even better! We will absolutely hire her again :) 10/10!”

“Sam house and pet sat for us when our regular dog sitter was no longer available. We have one pup who is very skittish and we have not had good luck leaving her. She loved Sam immediately! Sam sent us pictures of daily walks, kept our home beautifully, and baked us cookies on our return. I cannot recommend him enough. Fabulous!”
