Dog Boarding in Southern Oaks, Bakersfield, CA

“We love Barbara! She has taken care of our dog 3 times and we can’t imagine using anyone else. She is so caring and loving and treats our dog like her own. She keeps us updated daily. We highly recommend Barbara!”

“Super friendly and accommodating! We will definitely be bringing our puppy back! I will be recommending Julie to friends and family! Thank you for taking such good care of our baby!”

“Glenda was amazing with Steve from Finance. He felt right at home from the very first visit. She was always responsive to messages, and sent me photos and videos of Steve while I was away on a work trip. Highly professional, I feel more comfortable being away knowing my little guy is safe and cared for. Thank you Glenda!”

“Excellent sitter, professional, kind, communicative, helpful, and took great care of our pup. If this is your first time looking for a sitter or you need a better one, go with Elisa.”

“This is our first time leaving our pet at someone else’s house and we were a bit nervous since she is a special needs dog. After meeting Shanna, we knew Foxy was left in caring hands. Shanna is awesome and we can see how passionate she is about caring for others pets. We’ll definitely be using her again!”

About: I have always had dogs and im an experienced horse rider. I have a vet on speed dial for any emergency. i have a big backyard and two small dogs who love to play with other dogs and are the sweetest. I can administer meds if you need me to :) HI! Im Ali, im a 29 yr old stay at home mom to a baby and 2 doggies. My dogs are my life so you can expect the same treatment for yours, I spend my whole day with them and include them in everything they want! -I have a big backyard which they have access to anytime they want! (we have a doggie door installed) so they can enjoy the backyard or do their necessities there. -Dogs sleep in the room with us on their bed so we can keep an eye on them and they can sleep safe and warm. -We live in a safe and calm neighborhood so we can go on walks -I feed my dogs twice a day and leave water out all day for them to drink freely -We have a ring camera for security and trusty neighbors -I would love to meet you before dropping your dog off! and you can meet my dogs if you'd like too :) -I send pictures and updates! (As many as you'd like, I dont mind at all: I know its hard being away from our babies) I know how important dogs are to their families! so please let me know any concerns or questions you might have (Im happy to answer!) My backyard is completely fenced and its basically owned by my dogs (they use it freely all day) I dont go out much , so your dog might not spend any time alone whatsoever :) I let my dogs get on my couch but not the bed! they're allowed to be around the house wherever they want. *I prefer potty trained or crate trained dogs (we have a carpet sadly) * My dogs are sterilized, vaccinated and they're super sweet and playful with dogs that like to play. If your dog prefers their own space I can accommodate them, but no aggressive or destructive dogs please.

“Andy is a dog person. He immediately made me and my dog feel at ease. My dog is a bit shy and many people are intimidated by her because of her breed, but Andy's gentle approach allowed my dog to take to him right away. I really appreciated being given frequent updates and reassurance, along with photos. I would not hesitate to take my dog back to Andy for any type of care for my dog. We are both very happy with the service we were provided!”

“William's dedication to the well-being of the pets he cares for is unparalleled, and his genuine love for animals shines through in every interaction. William ensures the pets feel safe, loved, and well-cared for, providing them with the attention and affection they deserve. With William, you can have peace of mind knowing your pets are in the hands of a responsible and compassionate caregiver. I wholeheartedly recommend him to anyone seeking top-notch pet care services”

“Choosing Scott as my dog sitter has been a delightful experience, not once but twice! He’s not just a sitter; he’s a caring companion for my pup, who seems to have the time of his life under Scott’s care. What sets Scott apart is his exceptional communication - he keeps me updated with adorable pictures and videos, catering perfectly to my preferences. His flexibility in accommodating my schedule is nothing short of a blessing, making my life so much easier. Having tried various sitters from Rover, I can confidently say Scott stands out as one of the very best. My trust in him is unwavering, and I’m excited to continue entrusting my pup to his loving care.”

“Wow Jess was great! I can tell Barney really loved him just by how he moved around his place. He seemed very comfortable with Jess and I’d definitely would definitely use his services again.”

“We are so happy we chose Jill and Liz to take care of our pup Indie for the weekend. We were a little nervous to leave him since he has never stayed anywhere without us especially overnight but we felt relieved when we saw all the pics. He looked so happy to be there and around pup friends. He had a blast!!”

“Akie was phenomenal! From the moment we dropped off our girls we knew we picked the right person. She was so friendly and so accommodating. She kept us updated with pictures and texts everyday. We had some delays in pick up and she was so graceful and sweet about it. We will definitely book again. Our girls had a great time and seemed to be just as happy if not happier when we picked them up. Thank you Akie!”

“Good communication, loads of photos.”

“Haley is the best! I really recommend her! She took great care of my 2 pups! She let me know throughout the day how they were sending and send me pictures! Plus she is very understanding and loves and takes care of them like her own Definitely will be getting her again when I’m out of town!”

“Maria was the best sitter I could’ve asked for. She sent me updates of my dog throughout the day with some amazing photography skills! She let me know when my dog has eaten, went outside, or even taking a nap. I would definitely hire Maria as a sitter again if I am ever in that area!”

“Jackie is wonderful. I had never left our dog overnight with anyone and I was concerned about his first overnight. Jackie could not have been more caring and understanding. She sent me lots of updates with videos and her communications put me at ease. Jackie took great care of my dog and he could not have been in better hands. She gave him lots of attention and he played with her and her dog Athena. Thank you Jackie for being such a great animal caregiver.”

“Stephanie is the sweetest person ever! So easy going and cheerful. Nattie had an amazing time in her enormous back yard, playing chase with Maverick. We felt so comfortable leaving our fur baby with her, and I’m pretty sure Nattie is going to want to hang out with Auntie Stephanie and cousin Maverick again soon. :)”

“Kimberly is so sweet! Bo had so much fun with her!”

“Adriana is the best pet sitter I have ever known. She spoils my dog, gives him treats, and bathes him before I pick him up. I would highly recommend Adriana for any of your pet care needs.”
