Dog Boarding in Alta, CA

About: We absolutely love animals, and want to share our home and fenced yard with your pooch. We understand what it’s like to leave your dog with someone else while you’re away; we will treat your dog like a member of our family. I (Diana) grew up on a farm with lots of different animals and dogs, and understand how each one has their own fantastic personality. Just let me know what they need, and I can do it. We’ve had puppies, older dogs, big dogs, small dogs, and everything in between! My tween/teen kids are kind and fun with animals, and will provide even more love and attention for your dog while they stay with us. Thank you for trusting us with your favorite furry buddy! We primarily work from home so we can spend a lot of quality time with your dog. We have a Newfoundland-poodle mix of our own, so our daily routine is already focused on dog care (feeding, walking, letting outside, etc). Just let me know what your dog needs! We also have goats, chickens, outdoor cats, and a couple of feral peacocks that hang around the property. It’s a pet paradise. 😊 We have a large fenced yard and a big goofball named Hoagie to keep your doggy company. We will love and care for your dog as if he/she was our own, because that’s what we would expect for Hoagie while we’re away. We have extra pet beds, food and water dishes, etc. Our yard is perfect for a game of fetch, a sunbathing session, playtime with Hoagie, or just a great sniff. We’re happy to have your dog sleep in one of our bedrooms, take them for walks, and give them all the love.

“Being new to the service we were unsure of the entire process. However, Olena Davyd put us at ease. They sent several pictures throughout the days and answered all my questions. We would definitely recommend to others.”

“Alexis's place is in a secluded and safe place with huge lawn and play area for dogs. She is extremely patient and kind with older dogs like ours and has shown willingness to go the extra mile caring for them. Hidden gem and definitely recommendable.”

“Another happy getaway for our pups at Diane's house. She even made a special treat for our dog's 'gotcha day' which happened while they were there. So thankful for Diane!”

“Boarding our Labrador retriever for a moderate length of time with Grant was a very good choice. Our dog was exercised daily. He returned home looking lean and strong. Grant was thoughtful, communicative, and easy to coordinate with for drop-off/pick-up.”

About: I have extensive hands-on experience caring for dogs of all ages, sizes, and temperaments. I run a 501(c)(3) dog rescue, regularly transport dogs, care for puppies, seniors, and special-needs dogs, administer medications, work on basic training, leash manners, and provide structured, loving care tailored to each pet’s needs. Pet care fits seamlessly into my schedule because animals are already a central part of my daily life. I work from home and plan my days around feeding schedules, walks, medications, enrichment, and individualized care. This flexibility allows me to be reliable, responsive, and fully present for each pet. I have 2 600+ feet plus areas for dogs to run and play. We have a building for them to sleep cozy, clean and safe.

“Abbie did a great job taking care of Ella-dog. Her communication was prompt and professional and most importantly Ella-dog had a great time. 10/10 would happily recommend to anyone.”

“Our puppy had a 4-day stay with Nicole and Jarrod and she really enjoyed it. Being a high-energy breed, they made sure to keep her engaged and exercised throughout the stay. She was visibly tired when we picked her up, which means she had a great time. It's clear that Nicole and Jarrod are animal lovers and they made sure to integrate our puppy into their family during her stay. We also appreciated receiving daily updates and photos while we were away. We are grateful to them both for taking care of our puppy and giving her plenty of love and attention.”

“Bear loved his time with Linda! He had a blast playing with the other dogs and running around the property, he came home so tired and so happy. His whole life he’s been terrified of the water but he felt so comfortable that he even jumped in the pond a few times for a swim! Linda sent us pictures and kept us updated the whole time we were gone, it really helped us relax a little more and felt so good to know he was in such great hands! We also really appreciate that they do not take on too many dogs at one time so we know that Bear is getting the attention he needs and likes. We will definitely be bringing Bear back here in the future. Thank you so much Linda for taking care of our boy!”

“Khamrie was an amazing dog sitter. Although she had her puppy to take care of also, Kona looked so happy in the videos the Khamrie sent me. Will definitely be booking her again!”

Preston N.

“We are glad we found Logan in town! We needed a petsitter for the weekend, and Logan was available! She was great, took them on walks, send pictures and updates! We’d definitely recommend her for anyone who is looking for a pet sitter. Thank you Logan for the great care of our pets!”

“Our girl Amber is a little shy, and she had recently lost her brother, so she was a little hesitant to socialize at first. Aron did a fantastic job of making her feel comfortable so she could slowly integrate into the pack.”

Matt P.

“Amanda was our first sitter through Rover and it was a great experience, we will definitely use her again! She took wonderful care of our paralyzed doggie Brody, taking him on walks in his wheelchair, helping him with his bathroom breaks and giving him lots of love and cuddles. It was such a great peace of mind getting updates and photos while we were out of town and knowing he was in good hands. Thanks Amanda!”

Meredith H.

“I am so very thankful to find Rover thru a friend's referral and to find Kris and Joe. This was my first experience with a pet sitter and it was great! I got texts and photos and I enjoyed my camping trip without stressing on the dogs at all. They fed them wonderful homemade food and my fur kids got to play I will certainly use them again and again!”

“This was by far the best decision my wife and I made. Elisabeth, is so great, welcoming and warming. Our Great Dane, Luna, had no problem what so ever and had so much fun. I look forward to our next appointment.”

Jeffery W.

“Absolutely would use this family again! They treated Fancy and Rowdy as if they were a part of their home. The dog came home exhausted from playing and we could tell they had the best time ever with the children. Would highly recommend this family to dog sit 🙏🏼🤩”

“Connie and I were very happy with Pam's caring for Kimba and Happy. Kimba and Happy also appreciated Pam. We will ask Pam again in the future. Thank you Pam, Rod”
