Doggy Day Care in Berkeley

“Lily had a nice visit with Renae, her boyfriend, and their sweet dog, Kimchi. I appreciated how patient Renae was with Lily's appetite issues due to chronic kidney disease. I feel comfortable leaving Lily in her care.”

“Ellie had a great day with Danielle and Joel! They were very active with her and gave her plenty of outdoor time which we so appreciate! Our pup came home happy and sleepy from her day of play.”

About: I’ve done neighborhood dog care in high school for 2 years and in college occasionally take care of my friends cats while they are away. I’m a full time student at Cal but my classes are all during the morning so afternoons and evenings I am normally available to go for walks, feed, or play with pets. I have a fenced back yard and a pet friendly lease for my apartment. While boarding I would put fragile valuables away securely in my loft.

“Michelle is great with dogs. You can see the rapport and experience she has with dogs right away. We started with a meet and greet, where Michelle listened to our expectations and asked questions of us, and we made a booking for a day visit. On drop off, she took our pup R on a quick walk to get her away from us (later, she told us that that's better than having a specific goodbye), and R trotted after her happily. We got some photos and reports during the day, and at pickup time, R was glad to see us, but also went back to Michelle for some petting before we left. We are planning to leave R with Michelle for boarding during our summer holiday.”

“Ashley helped us out in a pinch and exceeded our expectations! She cared for our dog and quickly helped acclimate our anxious dog. We’ll definitely be asking Ashley for services in the future! Thanks for loving our pup like your own :)”

“Emily is a fantastic dog sitter! She watched my pup overnight, kept me updated with photos and messages, and made sure Roxy felt right at home. Her dog, Kibli, is super sweet and was such a fun (and gentle!) playmate, even though he’s much bigger than Roxy. I found Emily to be completely trustworthy and responsible, and it’s clear she genuinely enjoyed spending time with my dog. Roxy came home happy, well cared for, and tuckered out from all the playtime—I couldn’t ask for more!”

“Desi had such a good day with Mariola! She came home happy and tired from playing fetch and going on walks. I would gladly recommend Mariola to other dog parents!”

“If I could give 6 stars I would. Kianna and the kids treated Charlie with care and kindness. They played til he dropped. Normally when I pick him up from days care, he’s ready to go, not today. I think he was upset he was leaving. :) I will be booking again. Thank you Kianna.”

“Claudio was amazing with Xico. Xico does not always get along with other dogs, but Claudio has the ability to ease any tension or fear Xico may feel around new dogs. Claudio went above and beyond to make Xico feel at home. They even went to Alameda beach! I know Xico felt safe and happy due to Claudio’s warm energy. I’m so happy Xico could socialize and have fun this week!”

“She was by far the best dog sitter I’ve had in 13 years. She’s clearly doing it for the love of dogs! She was so kind and loving to my Maltese. My dog takes along time warming up to people and has a severe separation anxiety but she hit it off with Juyeon right away! 🫶🏻💕💕 I absolutely recommend her!”

“Danthony was fantastic! He took great care of Bowie and Bowie came back so happy.”

About: I am 25 years old. I’ve had many different animals/reptiles in my life and have always loved taking care and being there for them just as much as they’re there for us. I have one dog named Fiona, there is a whole separate room for her so if I do babysit, Ill leave her in my room but she does get along with all animals (I mainly put her up for the safety of it) ! I have been training dogs for many years now thanks to my grandmother. She owns her own farm and I have helped her out since I was young, it has taught me quite a bit. I would be honored to look after your fur babies!! It’s always a pleasure working with animals. I have the ability to work for the whole week due to free time on my hands! I’m able to house/pet sit as long as someone may need unless I am scheduled with someone else. I listen to each direction that’s given to me before accepting the clients request to make sure we’re cleared up and no mistakes happen. I follow through to each word that’s told to me because they’re safety comes first.

“Sherry was attentive and loving with our pup and also did a wonderful job of keeping us updated daily on how things were going! We will definitely rebook with her.”

“Eve has a very dog-friendly house and leaves the back door open to a great fenced yard. Dakota seemed very at ease there. Eve is a true dog lover!”

About: I have 3 lazy shih tzus who loves to be chauffeur in their stroller. We live in a house with fenced yard that has a nice lawn for relaxation or doggie tag. I have been caring for dogs since college (a long time ago!) from puppies to seniors. My doggies and I have travelled all of the country when I used to travel often for work, which trained me with care techniques as well as identifying behaviors and administering medications. I am 5 minutes walking distance from Berkeley Dog & Cat 24 Hours Hospital and can quickly get medical attention when necessary. The neighborhood has a handful of nice spaces for strolling, including parks, college campus, and quaint streets lined with shops. I have 2 teens who also love animals and occasionally help look after the dogs when I briefly step out for groceries or similar errands that are close by. The doggies all enjoy indoor and the fenced back yard. It is clean and secure. They also love sitting on the front porch with me and people watch. I do have a crate, but most of the time they are free to roam around the house. I never have more than 6 dogs, including my own, so that each one will get adequate attention.

“Taylor is fantastic. I was in town for work with my wee guy and she took care of him during the times I couldn't have him with me. Rowlf and Taylor made a fast friends. They played and walked and cuddled, she took tons of pics and kept me up to date about their time together, and really supported me while I was working. I'm so grateful I found her. Taylor is super friendly, thorough, and loving. It can be so hard for all of us to trust the care of our babies to a stranger. You can't go wrong here!”

“We're so glad we found Anna! She asked great questions, and sent updates and photos regularly. We'll definitely be going back to Anna the next time we need a dog sitter.”

“Danielle is wonderful! Very responsive and communicative. I have a shy pup, and she understood exactly how to navigate her needs. I will definitely be utilizing Danielle's care in the future!”

About: I work part time, 100% from home, so I can spend every minute of my day loving and running around with your dog! My family got a lab mix when I was ten and I took care of him on my own for the past two years until he passed away from cancer in February. I’ve really missed having a dog in my home, but doing rover and getting to be with dogs, go on walks, and get lots of cuddles has made a world of difference. Due to my last dog’s advanced age, I am very good at administering medication and also noticing any kind of sickness. I have also taken care of dogs with anxiety and reactivity issues. I love to go hiking and if your dog is up to it, would love to take them with me. I used rover for my own dog and know how scary it can be to leave your dog. Safety is my top priority, followed by lots of exercise and love for your pets! And most importantly tons of pictures :) I work remotely at a job with very flexible hours, so I can always take a break and exercise your dog. I will provide your dog with constant love and attention and as many walks and games of fetch as they could want! I work from home and have a flexible schedule so I will provide your dog with constant love and attention, and will exercise them as much as they like. As a general policy, I do not let dogs under my care interact with other dogs. Even if your dog is great with other dogs, I can never be certain if the other dog might have a trigger, be aggressive, or have a contagious disease. Your dog’s safety is my top priority. I love to play games with dogs, take pictures and videos, and go for long walks with them and play fetch (if your dog likes that!) My dog loved to eat anything he could find on walks, so I am very vigilant about ensuring that they don’t eat anything that might hurt their tummy. Because of my last dog’s health issues, I learned about many signs of possible health issues. I used to leave my dog with rover sitters and know how scary it can be to be away from them. Your dog’s safety is my highest priority, followed by them having a good time and getting lots of attention :)

About: I have taken care of dogs and cats for a few years. My friends trust me as a pet sitter. I am also a groomer, which brings me a lot of security to handle pets and calm them down. I have flexible working hours, I just need 1 or 2 days in advance to schedule myself and serve all my four-legged clients well. Weekends are exclusive like Pet Sitter I live in an apartment with screens on the windows and a backyard without a fence, which I use only to sunbathe with small dogs.
