House Sitting in Oakland

Barbara was absolutely wonderful! I was away for two weeks, and I felt completely at ease knowing Rumi and Nara were in such good hands. She was incredibly attentive, communicative, and thoughtful, and it was obvious that she genuinely cared about them and spent quality time with them while I was gone. I came home to two happy, well-cared-for cats and an absolutely immaculate apartment. Honestly, I’m not sure my home has ever been this clean! It was such an incredible thing to come home to after a long international trip. Barbara truly went above and beyond, and I would trust her with my cats and my home again without hesitation. Highly recommend! ❤️🐾

Wow, this is one of those moments where you're torn between keeping a wonderful secret to yourself and sharing it, even if it means risking her availability in the future! Tami is absolutely fantastic—she’s the only dog sitter we’ve ever had who our dog actually allows to touch her. Throughout the evening, Tami sent us pictures of our dog completely relaxed, and when we came home, it was clear she had been comfortable the entire time. We feel so lucky to have found Tami and can’t wait to go out again, knowing our dog is in such caring and capable hands. 💖

Thank you for taking amazing care of our puppy! We really appreciated your care and attention, and thank you for sharing the wonderful photos. We are excited to have you over again!

Six stars, if that would be possible! Dennis took excellent care of our greyhound and house. He was fast and clear in his communications, on time, and didn't mind accommodating our dogs little quirks. We left our house knowing that our girl would be in very good hands and returned to a happy dog!

This was our second time having Melina over to watch our anxious 2-year old pup for the day. She took excellent care of him, sent regular updates, and was positive and kind. Thank you, Melina!

Meshaal is one of our go-to trusted dog sitters for our senior dog Brody who has some unique health needs. Meshaal is reliable and attentive each time, and Brody absolutely loves him! Thank you Meshaal!

Hong recently housesat our 5 year old golden doodle in our home and we could not be happier with the visit. She was so kind and understanding towards our dog, who immediately fell in love with her. Hong was incredibly communicative throughout our trip, sending frequent updates and photos that put our minds at ease. She was so attentive to our dog’s needs, even making sure to take her on long walks to hit her daily step count. Finally, she was a fantastic house guest, leaving our place spotless and even keeping up with washing the bowls and cleaning up after treats like her pupsicle. We really appreciated her flexibility when we had to change our plans last minute. We’d recommend Hong to anyone looking for a caring, reliable sitter, and we’ll definitely be booking her again!

Erik is great!! He watched our pups for a few nights and he gave them love while also respecting our home and leaving it super clean! We received pictures and updates everyday and communicated clearly and quickly. I highly recommend him and will for sure have him watch our dogs in the future!!

Manuel was great to work with while taking care of our sheepdog and cat. He sent regular updates and lots of pictures which I really appreciated, and he was very quick to respond to messages. It is obvious he loves animals and gave both lots of attention. I could tell that my pets were happy and had been well cared for. The house was spotless when I returned home too! I would definitely work with Manuel again in future.

Agnes is absolutely incredible - my dog had a medical scare while in Agnes’s care, and they were able to handle the situation with such thorough dedication and kindness, staying at the ER for hours overnight in order for him to be seen. I would absolutely trust Agnes to watch Remy any day, any time. An absolute 100/10 review from me!

Erika is amazing! This is the first time we’ve ever had someone house sit and watch our puppy Chloe while we were away. Erika’s kindness, gentle demeanor and obvious love of animals put us at ease immediately. While we were gone, Erika sent plenty of photos and updates. It made us feel great to see that Chloe was being so well taken care of and having fun taking walks and playing with Erika. Chloe can be slow to warm up to new people, but she took an immediate liking to Erika. Dogs are great judges of character! We were also so appreciative of how Erika looked after our house. Everything was immaculate when we returned and Erika had even taken extra steps to start the laundry and clean up the kitchen. We can’t say enough about Erika’s trustworthiness, courtesy, professionalism and kindness. We are looking forward to working with Erika again in the future!

Charlii was amazing with watching my dog and my sister’s dog. I really appreciated her communicative approach, and she brought a lot of attention to detail and care with not only sitting the dogs, but caring for the house as well!
