Doggy Day Care In Alameda

“Christopher was great! He was easy to communicate with and gave Change lots of great walks and burned out a lot of his energy. Would definitely recommend and book with him again when in Portland.”

Riley W.

“My dogs had a great day trip to Portland and stayed with Mark. He was very nice to work with. Quick response time too! Thanks so much for taking good care of Vladimir and Arthur!”

“Evita was incredible! She watched Miso while I had a 12hr shift at work, and was extremely accommodating with drop off and pick up time. She sent lots of updates and was very understanding when my nervous dog wouldn’t stop barking in the morning. 10/10 would recommend!!”

“Washington loved it at Dahlia’s. She really helped make sure Washington was comfortable and he enjoyed going on walks with Dahlia. Thank you.”

“Devin was wonderful and very trust worthy. Made us feel good to know we were leaving our pup in great hands! Her backyard is an ideal space for play time. Our pup seemed very comfortable! Would definitely recommend Devin!”

Natalie T.

“Laura and Nicholas took such great care of my pup Brielle the beagle! She has separation anxiety so needs someone around to keep her company and Laura and Nicholas were so kind to host her for the day. They sent multiple updates and cute photos to keep me up to date. Brielle got to sunbathe and explore their yard, which was such a treat because our place doesn’t have that. Would definitely recommend Laura and Nicholas!”

“Leah was great. I had to leave my 8 week old puppy with a sitter in an emergency, and Leah was very communicative, kind, and generous. She met me right outside her building so we had no trouble finding her. We sat and chatted for a bit inside before I left for the day, so I felt comfortable before heading out. She even gave Frankie a new stuffed animal that he now can't sleep without because he loves it so much. She sent multiple texts and pictures while I was away, so I felt secure that Frankie was safe and sound.”

“Wonderful, wonderful dog sitter! She was incredibly kind to my dog! Her two dogs were adorable and were great for nervous, first time in someone else’s home dogs (my dog). She took them on frequent walks, communicative about eating, treats, potty, and nap time and sent many pictures. I’d recommend her to anyone with small-medium dogs that need somewhere to go either sitting or boarding. One issue I faced which wasn’t a huge deal, was in the middle of my reservation the rate of sitting increased to almost double the initial rate I paid for. My intial booking was 15/day and I asked for one more day of sitting, and the entire reservation was modified to 25/day. It caught me off guard since it was the middle of the week and I was caught off guard with the new price. The service was worth the new rate, just wanted transparency there.”

“Amanda was so welcoming and caring while dog sitting for Q. She was knowledgeable and very capable; made sure to know what Q’s needs were. Her dog Ginger was friendly and understanding of Q being shy. Q was so well taken care of in a few days she went from being really shy to getting all excited play with Ginger. Amanda made sure Q had her walks and gave me all the updates I needed. Q started to participate in play more so I know her time with Amanda was safe, fun, and instructive! I would definitely recommend her for dog waking and dog sitting!”

“Very friendly and communicative! My dog was very well cared for and would definitely have Natalie watch her again sometime.”

Alexandra B.

“Loved Natalie’s calm and reassuring demeanor. First time using Rover and she made it easy and we really felt like our anxious dog was in great hands! Couldn’t thank her enough.”

Trina W.

“Took my 3 year old female GSD to Allen’s for daycare and had a good first time experience. Got to meet the other dogs and see her interact with them. Lots of photos and videos throughout the day, which really helps you feel at ease for a first time drop off. Good to know the dogs are running around getting their exercise. We plan to continue using Allen’s services.”

“Michael was a lifesaver today on Super short notice (my sitter cancelled last minute) he was very quick to reply, extremely friendly and professional, but best of all.. my dogs absolutely Loved him. I have an English bulldog w anxiety/separation issues and a mix doodle who is shy and full of energy at the same time. When I picked them up both were happy and my bulldog ran back for more scratches and play. That said everything i needed to know.. Will Def be rebooking next time I'm in town. Thank you again Michael!!”

“Serena is great! I love that whenever I leave Theo in her care, I know he’s going to get nice and tired playing with Nugget, and I appreciate the updates I get throughout the day. 10/10 definitely recommend and we will keep coming to Serena!”

Abigail H.

“Mousse loved spending the evening with the whole family. When I arrived she proudly showed me her spot where she sits. April and family are the best.”

About: Hi! I’m a full-time animal lover offering boarding, daycare, and drop-in visits. I have a friendly, well-socialized dog and a calm, confident cat who are both very used to being around other animals. They help create a relaxed, safe environment for visiting pets. I treat every pet like my own—whether that means playtime, walks, or just giving them a calm space to relax. I’m attentive, patient, and always focused on making sure your pet feels comfortable and cared for. I also send regular photo and video updates so you can feel at ease while you’re away. I’m happy to accommodate different energy levels and personalities, and I can separate pets if needed to ensure everyone stays safe and stress-free. I’m currently building my client base, so I’m very flexible and available—including last-minute bookings. I’d love to meet you and your pet! I do pet sitting full-time, so I’m able to provide lots of attention, supervision, and care throughout the day. My schedule is very flexible, including availability for many last-minute bookings. I focus on creating a calm, structured, and stress-free environment where pets can settle in comfortably. I pay close attention to body language, routines, and individual needs to help every pet feel secure while they’re away from home. I can easily separate pets when needed and always prioritize safe introductions, supervision, and a clean environment. I also have a fully fenced in backyard.

“Craig gave our pup the exercise and the attention she needs. She came home happy everyday! He also worked with her on her lease pulling and gave me some tips. Thanks Criag!”

About: Certified helicopter dog mom here who will dote on your pet! I've had dogs for the past 16 years, spent time volunteering for endless adoption events and shelter visits, and am Red Cross certified in pet first aid and CPR. Seven years of pro pet care has allowed me to care for dogs of all sizes, breeds, temperaments and ages, from 5lb to 100lb, from babies to seniors. I've also been trusted with many cats and even rats, bunnies and a lizard! I'm always easy to reach and and can't resist a cute pet selfie, so you will get plenty of photo updates of your dog's stay with me! I have a super flexible schedule so feel free to reach out! I am a full-time freelancer, primarily in design and film, with pet care being my secondary gig. I typically make my own schedule and have long periods of open availability interspersed with intensely busy periods. You should know: because I live alone, my dog Teddy comes along on my overnight dog sitting bookings. He is very chill, respectful and easy tempered and I have never had a problem having him in other homes! At my place, I definitely let the pets rule the home and enjoy snoozing on the bed and couch. I do not have a fenced yard, so we will always be on leash for potty breaks in the back courtyard area or full walks. I typically do not do off leash dog parks until I have established trust with your dog, and feel strongly about strict safety rules for females in heat. In your home, I’ll defer to your rules!
