House Sitter in Oakland, California

I'm an
Individual
Hi potential partners in home-caring and sharing. My name is Meg Anderson, I create under the entity KINETIC DUST -- I make music and dance and work to reconnect people with their creativity, with nature, and with each other. I am looking for spaces to care for in the San Francisco Bay Area -- my community and my work is here, but unfortunately we artists are unable to really plant roots due to the housing crisis. So I am utilizing this fabulous service to see if I can land a symbiotic situation with someone who needs expert care for pets, plants, home. I adore animals of every kind and have glowing references to confirm this. If the animals are ones who love to run, they will be happy as ever with me as their sitter because I. get. Out! Cats, Bunnies, Snakes, you name it, I can care for them. I'm especially intuitive with plants. When I was a professional house-cleaner, I would love nothing more than for owners to come home and exhale as how clean and sparkly everything was. I especially love to shine up a home for folks who have been away for a while -- no better welcome than a beautiful, clean space. Last but certainly not least, I keep the home in-order and safe. I adapt to your routine. If you have an alarm... or anything you like done a certain way, I am a fabulous chameleon and will adapt to your style and routine. I have sat for so many animals and plants and homes -- from backwoods farms to mansions to apartments. I'm very familiar with all of it and very robust, hard-working midwestern girl with a kick- work-ethic and deep love and compassion for animals. I would love to provide absolutely glowing references for you.Thank you! I hope to meet you soon !

Meg Anderson was caring, trustworthy, responsible, and a really really helpful house-sitter/dog-sitter/cat-sitter! My little homestead is not the easiest to housesit--I live outside of town in a really rural neighborhood, and I have an off-grid solar system and a woodstove for heating. She learned these unusual systems easily, and everything was perfect when I got home. Meg watered my garden and all my houseplants, and even planted the 10 bare-root raspberry plants that in the insanity of getting ready to be away, I hadn't had a chance to plant! She was SO helpful! Meg also lovingly took care of my Great Pyrenees dog--she was extremely friendly with him, and also firm and made sure he was behaving. My dog was happy and relaxed when I got home, and I could see that they had made a sweet bond. In addition, she cared for my 5 outdoor cats and "pet" Rooster. All the animals were so content, it was as if I'd never been gone. I completely recommend Meg to help out at your home when you're away and need someone trustworthy and careful to take care of things.
