Pet Sitting West Oakland

About: Although I’ve cared for only a few pets for about 5 months, the owners have consistently called me back, which I believe speaks to the trust and care I provide. I genuinely enjoy getting to know each pet’s unique personality and love the joy they bring. I am highly organized, detail-oriented, and committed to following regulations. If needed, I’m not afraid to ask for help to ensure your pet receives the best care possible. My goal is always to provide the highest level of care and attention to every pet I look after. As a graduate student, my schedule may be demanding, but I am still able to accommodate pet care around my studies. I am available to check in on your pet in the late afternoons or evenings during the weekdays, anytime on Saturdays, and early morning, afternoon, or evening on Sundays. I will do my best to keep my schedule flexible to meet your pet’s needs and ensure they receive the care and attention they deserve. While I may not have extensive experience caring for pets, I am genuinely a pet lover, and pets tend to respond well to me. I am highly reliable and dedicated to following your instructions to ensure the best care for your furry friend. You can trust me to keep your pet happy, safe, and well-cared for. I’ll do everything I can to provide a loving and secure environment for your pet.

“Abriana took the best care of our Samson. He can be very shy especially when away from us and we could tell through all the pictures of videos we got throughout the stay that he was comfortable with her. Abriana took great care of Samson and kept us updated all weekend.”

About: Hi! I’m Ryan, a lifelong animal lover with years of hands-on experience caring for dogs, cats, birds, and other pets. I understand that pets are family, and I treat every animal in my care with the same attention, patience, and affection that I give my own. I currently share my home with a spoiled cat who runs the household, so I know how important it is to find someone trustworthy and dependable when you’re away. One of the biggest advantages I offer is flexibility. I work remotely, which allows me to provide daytime drop-in visits, quick check-ins, feeding, walks, playtime, medication administration (if needed), and lots of attention throughout the day. I’m also available during evenings and weekends. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pets. I treat every animal as if they were my own and strive to maintain their normal routine as closely as possible. Safety, patience, and positive interactions are always my priorities. I carefully follow feeding, medication, and exercise instructions, and I provide regular updates and photos throughout each visit. My goal is to make both pets and owners feel comfortable, confident, and cared for.

“This was my first time booking on Rover and we had a great experience with Riley. Great communication and photos while taking care of our cats!”

“Tiffany was wonderful! From the initial meet-and-greet through our time away, Tiffany was responsive and dependable. Our cat Cashew was happy and well cared for, and we got tons of pictures over the week that we were gone. It was our first time using Rover and it was a great experience. We wouldn't hesitate to have Tiffany watch Cashew again!”

About: I have lived in a house with cats, dogs, etc. my whole life. I have experience with walking, feeding, and even providing medical attention to animals. Animals steal my heart and i would love to take care of yours! I am currently working a part time job at the Pet Palace, because I love animals! Send me a message and I’d love to help you and your furry friend in my free time! Depending on your pets needs, I am willing to spend as much time with your pet as needed, whether it’s just a walk, or playing with toys.

About: I’ve cared for dogs of all sizes and temperaments, from energetic puppies to calm senior pets who need a gentler pace. I’m patient, detail-oriented, and always prioritize safety, whether that’s sticking to your dog’s routine, handling leash walks confidently, or keeping a close eye on behavior. I’m comfortable with feeding schedules, basic training reinforcement, crate routines, and giving lots of love and attention. What sets me apart is how seriously I take communication and trust: you’ll always get updates, photos, and full transparency so you feel completely at ease while you’re away. I’m currently a student at the University of Pittsburgh, which actually gives me plenty of flexibility for pet care. I have breaks throughout the day between classes, so I’m able to stop by for walks, drop-ins, or check-ins without rushing. Evenings are usually wide open for longer visits or house-sitting, and weekends are very flexible as well. My schedule is consistent week to week, so you can count on reliable care and clear communication about my availability. Since I provide care in my clients’ homes, my priority is always to maintain a safe, calm, and familiar environment for your pets. I follow your routines exactly; feeding schedules, walk routes, crate rules, playtime, and any house guidelines you prefer so your pet feels comfortable and secure while you’re away. I’m very mindful of doors, gates, and leashes to prevent escapes, and I make sure your home stays tidy and respected throughout my stay. I communicate frequently with updates and photos so you always know how things are going, and I’m attentive to any changes in behavior or appetite. My goal is to give your pet reliable, loving care while giving you total peace of mind.

About: For more than 10 years, I have volunteered at a local animal shelter, where I care for dogs by feeding, walking, and supporting their daily needs. I have been a lifelong dog owner and have developed a strong understanding of their care and behavior. I currently have two dogs: a dachshund and a medium-sized Labrador/Pit Bull mix. Spending time with dogs is something I enjoy, and caring for them is rewarding. Their companionship brings me a great deal of happiness. I currently work full-time and am available during the evenings. Beginning in the fall, I will also be attending school, so my availability will vary depending on the day. In my free time, I enjoy spending time with my dogs, especially playing with their favorite toys. We often play fetch outside and enjoy relaxing together in the sunshine.

“Friendly and super communicative!”

“Lauren was absolutely fantastic! My cats warmed up to her super quickly, and she took excellent care of them while I was away. I especially loved her updates and looked forward to them everyday. They were so detailed and fun to read!! I couldn’t have asked for someone better to watch my cats and will definitely be booking her again!”

“Clytie was amazing with my cat Khalesi. Especially the regular updates with pictures was the best part of her cat sitting. Recommend her 100% to any cat and dog owners. She will treat your pet like her own! -M. Haris”

“Disha was a great sitter for our two cats while we were out of town! Both of our girls warmed up to her quickly, even our shy cat. Would trust her with the care of our girls again next time we travel.”

“Abby, was so great with our Sailor. She has a friendly, confident and warm way with dogs! Sailor loved her right away when they met. I could tell how excellent her caregiving was as he did all his routines great with her-- a walk, bedtime routine, ate his meals, was calm and great when we got home. He is used to us being around and I hadn't left him for an overnight for some years, so it is all the more impressive that he adjusted so quickly to Abby. Also, we loved getting the detailed updates and pictures! We are so happy we were able to have Abby help us for these couple of days and know Sailor will want to have her back! Thanks for taking care with all our little notes about things, Abby! Hope we can have you back soon!”
