Dog Boarding in Big Oak Valley, 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.

“Kandra took such good care of our Mini Aussie, River. She was flexible and had great communication. River came home happy and tired from her fun time at Kandra’s. We appreciate the excellent care our girl got with Kandra and her family.”

“My dog had an awesome stay with Grant while i was gone for a week! It was my first time using rover and will definitely use this app again, and cant wait for my dog Creepy to stay with Grant again. Grant provided a great environment for him. Being a rescue, his stay helped socialize him more and taught him how to behave in a pack, with grant who has proved himself to be a good pack leader! I loved getting pictures of my dog running around having a good time, and best of all, hes nice and tired from all of the playing haha! Thanks for keeping my Creepy busy! We will be back!”

“Kelsey again exceeded our expectations! Such a good dog mom to our black lab, Titan. She got a walk in with him each morning before it was hot, he slept in her room just like at home, and got all the loves he could ask for. We will definitely be using Kelsey again in the future. :)”

“I was nervous having to use this app for my dogs to stay the night at a strangers house. My original plans fell through. Hailey not only accommodated my last minute plans so I could still go on my trip, I completely messed up the booking and she had no clue problems accommodating this as well. She gave me updates throughout the visit. I was so happy to hear my dogs got along great with her dogs and kids. She used her best judgement on when she introduced the dogs which all I wanted was for her to be comfortable. I did tell her my dogs go to daycare 4 days a week so I know my dogs are well behaved but you still never know. I will definitely be using her again. She already said she would be happy to watch my dogs for my vacation in July.”

“Very nice experience for us. This was the first time I’ve had to board my dog and I was worried about her reaction to being alone. Samantha kindly reassured me that she would be okay. There is a large fenced area for off leash play time. Blondie was taken on long walks and was bedded down in a stall in a former stable. She had a cozy bed and a heater. When we picked her up she looked happy and comfortable. We are very satisfied with Samantha’s kind care of Blondie.”

“Lynn has always been wonderful with our dogs. They are spoiled with walks, treats and lots of cuddling. Lynn is the best dog boarder - we are never worried leaving our dogs with her.”

“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.

“Alesya was great with my little guy and truly made us both so comfortable with his first boarding experience! She kept me informed along the way and it’s very clear she truly cares about the pups she watches!”

Stephanie C.

“Nicole and Jarrod have watched my pup several times and have always taken such great care of him. They are patient and kind, great communicators and I can tell that they genuinely care and treat Mac as part of the family. In addition, they are just awesome people. I feel really lucky that I found Nicole and family - can't recommend them highly enough!”

“Thank you Poulette for sitting Blue! He seem well taking care of and very happy when he returned today. I would definitely recommend you as a great dog sitter!”

Brandy B.

“Amanda was reliable front start to finish. She was commutative throughout our arranged time. Also sent pictures random throughout the day. Our lincoln seemed at home with their littles. 😀 I hope to be able to use her in near future.”

Kristina L.

“Finding a trustworthy petsitter can be the most challenging part of planning a vacation. If you are lucky enough to book Arwen and her husband, Mike, you can rest assured that you made the right choice! Their farm is the perfect setting to leave your furry family members. They will be showered with love, attention, and care. There is so much for them to explore and take in that they will come back exhausted. Arwen kept me informed with pictures and didn't hesitate to reach out with a question regarding one of my dogs. I had the utmost of confidence leaving my dogs with them and without a doubt recommend them to my friends, family and the Rover.com community.”

Beth G.

“I had such a great experience with Tiffany and her family! This was my first time leaving George with someone unknown, and Tiffany made it so easy for me. Such a lovely family and so kind and loving to George. I will definitely be booking with her again!”

Erica B.

“Nicole went above and beyond to make sure my pup was comfortable and well adjusted to her home. She also went above and beyond with communicating with me! I’ll be booking again!”

Pauline G.

“Jennifer and family were great!! I think they went above and beyond to care for our dog Chewie while we were out of town for Thanksgiving. I would highly recommend her and will book her again when needed!! Thanks Jennifer💕”

“Kerstin was great with our pups. She sent us lots of pictures and gave us updates, we would definitely recommend her for any of your sitting needs!”

“Ruby does a great job and communicates well. The pictures and videos sent daily are wonderful. I would recommend Ruby for dog care and we hope to use Ruby’s service again on future needs.”

Michael M.

“Olivia was super flexible and communicative. We needed to do a pretty early drop off and it was no issue. We got lots of great pictures throughout her stay. Our dog is coming home much happier than if she had stayed at a boarding place.”
