Doggy Day Care in Berkeley

“I'm so happy to have found Kelli! My 3.5 month old puppy, Luna, got to meet cows, played with a variety of other dogs, and went swimming for the first time! Kelli provided lots of photos and updates - Luna clearly had the best time of her life! I'll absolutely use Kelli again when needed.”

“Jaclyn saved us in a pinch and watched our energetic pup with less than a day’s notice. We couldn’t be happier with the day care. We knew Walter had a blast because he passed out immediately in the car. To top it all off he was ready at pick up with a printed report card, a nice portrait, and a seasonal scarf. Unexpected, but a nice surprise. Thanks for taking care of our boy!”

“I plan on requesting daycare from Charlie again. The pick yard and dogs to play with is a plus. I'm confident that Sadie will be as well cared for as she was. Charlie was flexible when I had to change my schedule”

“Rob, Jeannie and Peanut are fantastic, they genuinely love dogs, they are extremely friendly and professional. I received lots of photos and videos of my dog boo , even got a personalized report card for boo at the end of his stay. Perfect 10/10 rating, they are one of the best sitters on this app, I am extremely lucky to have found them, HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!! Thank you so much for taking care of boo and the extra warm/caring touch you provide, it means a lot knowing that boo will be taken care of like he is part of your family.”

“Tori is a great person and you can tell loves animals. My spoiled dogs hate to be away from us , but Tori made them comfortable and gave them tons of love with time to run off the zoomies. Thank you for caring for my lugs. I would definitely recommend Tori.”

“Lejune & Mike were amazing. Our puppies came home so happy and worn out from all of the playing. I was nervous about dropping them off however Lejune eased my worries! She was very thorough with her questions regarding how to care for our babies. They will definitely be going back.”

“I felt super nervous starting Daisy at yet another daycare but as soon as I met Kelly, she made me feel comfortable with leaving Daisy with her. I even woke up to a pic of my Daisy girl relaxing and comfortable as can be!”

Cherie H.

“Wonderful sitter! You can tell she really cares about her campers. We have our baby scheduled with her for a long weekend and I fully trust her to provide excellent care. My little baby is my pride and joy :)”

“We knew the minute Heidi met us at the door for our Meet and Greet with Tux, our 13-year old Bichon-Poodle, that we had found the perfect sitter. Tux felt right at home wagging his tail at her kids and Moochie, her Golden Retriever. He sniffed around, as all dogs do, and made his way outside to explore in their fenced-in backyard. We had total peace of mind leaving Tux in her care. She updated us throughout the day with pictures of the kids snuggling and playing with him. We will look no where else when we need someone to care for Tux. We highly recommend her services to anyone looking to find the sweetest caregiver for your beloved pets.”

About: I’ve had and taken care of dogs/cats since a young age. I love all animals and taking care of them! Currently, I am caring for my 2 cats and leopard gecko! I recently switched shifts so I am now available all week! I am no longer able to do house sitting because I now have a baby to take care of, but if they are good with kids and cats, your pet is more than welcome to come stay with us! I do prefer having the option to crate so if issues do arise or if I need to step out, I can do so easily.

“Jessica was amazing! She had oakley out all day playing and sent pictures throughout the day of what they did. Oakley loves going there! I will definitely rebook for future!”

Chelsea T.

“Chris is a really good dog sitter, he sends you updates of what your pet is doing throughout the day. This helps a lot when having a puppy.”

Leydy L.

“Charity was super responsive and sent pictures of Jax right away! My schedule was a bit in flux and Charity was very understanding and willing to work with me. Jax came home happy and tuckered out from a day of playing!”

“Wonderful. Dave not only took care of my dog but helped me by picking Junior up and dropping him off. Junior was happy and well taken care of. I highly recommend Dave to help you with doggy day care or longer stays if needed.”

“Sheryl was fantastic with Ladybug! I didn't worry for a second, she is such a warm and welcoming person. Ladybug had three days of doggie daycare and when I dropped her off, it was clear that Ladybug enjoyed her time at Sheryl's house.”

About: Over the past 12+ years, my journey in caring for a diverse range of dogs has been both rewarding and enlightening, spanning from playful puppies to wise seniors. While being a pet sitter equipped me with practical caregiving skills, it was the dogs themselves who imparted the most genuine form of love. The genesis of my canine companionship traces back to childhood dreams of owning a dog, a wish that remained unfulfilled. Undeterred, my passion led me to assume the role of the community dog walker. From there, I expanded my involvement by offering bathing services, and one satisfied customer's needs seamlessly led to another. Eventually, I found myself entrusted with the care of not just pets but also homes, as I stayed at my neighbor's, tending to both their residences and beloved animals. ****PROMO CODE/COUPON: GABRIM69619**** I am a full-time remote employee and proud fur mom to Max and Marena. I am eager to embrace more outdoor activities, connect with new pets, and engage with fellow pet parents in our local community. Based on my profound love for my own pets, I understand the challenge of entrusting strangers with the care of your furry companions. Building trust is an integral aspect of my role, and I am dedicated to treating your pet with the same level of care and devotion as I do for my own.

“Nate is great! He genuinely seemed like he cared about snow and sent me a ton of messages pictures of them walking/playing e.t.c.”

About: I can help! I have just over four years raising my dogs. I also have some experience rescuing dogs when I was growing up. And a variety of pets from snakes to cats. I currently work at home full time and looking for more activity! I can take care of pets any time. Check out our pics, our family is dedicated to making your pets feel at home while your away. 🙂 We let pet roam free in our home and have pet friendly furniture. There is a fenced dog park for small and large dogs on site! We also have cages and an extra large balcony for extra outdoor space to roam!

About: I have taken care of many dogs and cats and all types of animals throughout my lifetime. All animals trust me And they always have a great time in my care. I am currently just a stay at home mom so my schedule is very open. I am free throughout the week and the weekend. To care for your animals. I make sure they go for walks on time and make sure they have their food on time. And they have a great time With me. I am very trusted And loving of animals.

About: I wholeheartedly appreciate integrity, transparency, and respect - trusting someone with your family is not something to take lightly in today's world! Here’s a quick rundown on me to help YOU decide if/how I'm a good a fit for your fur family! I spent 5 yrs on the United States Humane Society’s animal rescue team & district leader programs (experience with a variety of topical and intramuscular medications, ages, sizes and temperaments, Dog First Aid/CPR certified, catered to special needs, coordinated canine engagement and enrichment, it was an incredible chapter of my life!). I’ve also spent 5 yrs as volunteer Fire/EMS and then started a holistic nutrition & natural health practice, which all together has given me the experience & afforded me more time with one of the things I cherish most: DOGS. They’re the most selfless animals I’ve loved learning how to communicate with and being there to love if/when you can’t. I’m 31 yo with 2 dogs of our own and love making them feel like family! I’d love to help take care of your fur babies while you’re away! My hope is you can rest easy knowing your pet and home are in loving, knowledgeable hands while you’re away. WHAT YOU CAN EXPECT FROM ME - SAFETY: I’ve learned to never get complacent & reasonably prioritize situational awareness for your pets like I would my own family (strangers, locking doors, choking hazards, health emergencies, etc). LOVE: dogs make our days so much better and I love to fill their day(s) with the joy, laughter, and belly rubs they deserve! INTEGRITY: I say what I mean and I do what I say! Trust & transparency are hard bridges to build back once burnt so with clear expectations set, your dog(s) will be cared for exactly the way you ask them to be no matter how simple or complex their routine may be (with lots of photos/videos along the way!). WHAT I’D LOVE FROM YOU - COMMUNICATION: every dog is different with unique needs so please never hesitate to promptly specify what your dog(s) need more/less of! OBEDIENCE: I never expect perfect obedience!! But I do believe manners are important. I've been (unintentionally) injured, seen dogs damage property, and believe setting boundaries (lovingly) is important if we want to coexist! With the HSUS, I was taught how to train basic obedience using Pavlovian pairing/classical conditioning techniques (ex: rewarding for what’s acceptable, creating opportunities to praise, replacing minimal physical correction with verbal correction for desired outcome, etc) and witnessed all breeds learn better behaviors with consistent guidelines. However I only offer training and will never praise or correct behavior unless asked. Otherwise, the only behavior I'll stop is any behavior that harms your pet(s), people, or property. Services: 🏠 DAYCARE/OVERNIGHT: a fun way for me to supervise your pup while they socialize and play at home away from home! We’re grateful to have hvac, a fenced yard, clean carbon filtered water, and plenty of antlers to share. We love welcoming 1 dog to stay (and snuggle) with us and our crew (2 female dogs, 1 toddler) where they’ll get greeted with belly rubs over coffee and talked to like family throughout the day! Plenty of yard to roam, a dedicated den to make their own (toys, beds, blankets, etc), and way more opportunity to go potty/exert energy than 2-3 drop-ins. You pack the food and maybe their favorite treats, I’ll make sure they feel right at home with daily pictures/videos throughout the stay! Daycare: $60/daily | Overnight: $70/daily Availability: Monday-Sunday 🦮 DROP-INS/DOG WALKS: they’re essentially the same service (same price!)! In theory, “drop-ins” are potty breaks/playtime for dogs with fenced in yards, large open properties, dogs who spend most of their time inside, or need more than a walk… while “dog walks” are leashed walks around your neighborhood. In my book, they both include lots of belly rubs, playtime, poop pickup, cleaned dog bowls/fresh water, meals & meds, and tons of time outdoors. 1-3 dogs $25 | 3+ dogs $30 Availability: Monday-Sunday HOUSESITTING: I no longer offer “overnight” housesitting but I do as many visits as you’d like, so your pups still enjoy steady company in the comfort of home sweet home. Always includes walks or potty breaks daily, meals & meds, playtime & exercise, lots of cuddles for dogs who’d rather snuggle than play, and light tidying up (clean dog bowls, poop pickup, quick sweep) so you come home to your space the way you left it. See drop-in/dog walk pricing. CAT CARE: more than willing to help with cat care for clients already paying for dog care (no cat-only services). Includes meals & meds, snuggles, playtime, and cat litter. On average its only an extra $5-15 total (depending on duration of stay). A note on distance/radius: please keep in mind Rover takes 20% of my rate, so in order to make a profit after gas and Rover fees, I only offer dog walks within a certain radius. Please touch base with any Qs! I'd love to help! WARNING: malicious inquiries have definitely come through so we'll schedule a free 20-30 minutes together beforehand! $20 OFF for first time clients when you use Danika 20 at rover.com/sit/danikalauren $20 OFF when you refer a neighbor/friend who books any service. Rover asks, “describe a typical visit.” A worn out dog is a happy dog! Walking is such a great opportunity to train & reinforce commands together too. But potty breaks, a game of fetch, tug, toys that release treats, ropes, stuffed animals, a local park, or snugglin on the couch can be just as interactive! I also know the stress that comes with living in various types of locations: our own dogs have lived on a busy road and a wide open farm. While I'm so proud of how obedient they've been off leash all these years, I know recall takes time to train so I’m more than willing to entertain your dog(s) on leash or in your yard. I understand they're domesticated animals that depend on us to supervise them! The least intimidating introductions, positive body language, smiles, belly rubs, and sticking to routines you've already built for them to make them feel as comfortable as possible!
