Dog Boarding in Bodega Bay, CA

“I'm so happy that I found Lauren to watch Shifty. She sent photos and videos of my pup having a blast daily. I felt safe on my vacation knowing that Shifty was also having a vacation. Lauren treated her like she was a part of her own family. I will definitely call her again whenever I go out of town!”

“My dog Eddie just had his first experience with Brandi, and I can’t say enough good things! I had to take a trip on short notice, and I was a bit nervous about leaving my dog, with someone new. But Brandi made everything so easy. Her communication was fantastic—she kept me updated and sent some great pictures of Eddie having a blast. Eddie got to play with her dog and another pup, and I’m sure he loved having the cats around too! He even got in on a little football action, which he loves. It was clear he made some new friends, and seeing him so happy was comforting. If you’re looking for someone who truly cares about pets, I highly recommend Brandi. I’ll definitely be reaching out to her again.”

“Mollie’s beautiful enclosed farm setting was the perfect place for Yahtzee to stay and run and play while we were gone. We came home to a tired, happy pup who’s still sound asleep! A pretty country drive convenient from the highway. We will be very happy to have Mollie watch our dog again.”

“We are incredibly grateful to have Heather D. as our go-to dog sitter! They always go above and beyond to ensure our pup is happy, healthy, and well-cared for. From daily walks to playtime and snuggles, Heather D. truly treats our dog like their own. Their reliability, kindness, and love for animals shine through every visit. Highly recommend!”

“Had such a great experience leaving my chocolate lab mix with Caleb and Dustin. They were amazing and clearly knew how to introduce new dogs into their home. When we arrived, they invited us in and we went into the living room with a doggy gate blocking the rest of the house. After Levi felt comfortable there they brought out their pups and kept them in the other side of the gate so they could smell each other and get used to it, then they let in one dog for and introduction and then the other. That alone made me feel super confident and as this was my first time leaving my dog with anyone that was important. They sent pics and provided updates, and were quick to respond. When I picked up Levi he was excited to see me but once we got home it was clear he missed Chose and Waffles, which makes me happy as it means he had a great time. I highly recommend these two and will definitely go to them in the future for any dog sitting needs.”

“Our XL dog had a wonderful stay. He was so well cared for and I loved that he got to spend his vacation with three kiddos as well. Such a wonderful family! Very grateful that they took him in as their own for our little getaway!!”

“Gabriel & Laura took such great care of our dogs, Kylo & Cocoa! They were very attentive and sent us updates throughout the dogs’ stay, so we got to enjoy our weekend knowing that our dogs were cared for by this amazing family. Highly recommend and will definitely have them look after the dogs again when we’re in the area!”

“Bernadette watched and fed our little dog while we went to dinner for the night. She was very accommodating and communicative through the whole process. We would recommend her for dog-sitting, especially for small dogs.”

Edith H.

“I spend the vast majority of my time with my dog Maple and this was my first time using Rover. Oksana was wonderful! Very loving and attentive, and an excellent communicator. Maple was happy and relaxed when I picked her up, and clearly had a nice time with Oksana. I highly recommend her as a compassionate and trustworthy dog sitter. Thank you so much!!”

“David was very easy to work with and responded quickly to our questions/ concerns. Our dogs had access to a few enclosed acres on the property which was great for the dogs...a beautiful setting as well. Our 3 dogs got along well with David's dogs and another visiting dog. Most important, I felt our dogs were in good hands with David.”

About: Walks through Armstrong Redwoods are a favorite activity. I have a large yard and a dog friendly house. I have a couple of years experience working in a veterinary clinic giving me experience medicating animals, including giving injections. I have a pool for dogs who love to swim! I was a volunteer and puppy raiser for Canine Companions for Independence back in the mid to late 1980's, and a Puppy Petter for Assistance Dog Institute in the early 2000's. I've also kept busy with boarding in my home for friends and acquaintances. I love dogs!! I have Sundays and Mondays off from my full time job, but I can fit in a nice walk after 4 pm most other days. When I have someone's dog, they get my full attention; we play, exercise, snuggle. My focus is providing an enriching experience for your dog .

“Leslie was a wonderful sitter for Lola. We have used her twice and she will continue to be our go-to whenever we're in Guernville. She has a great house perfect for dogs and she was incredibly easy going. Would highly recommend!”

About: I had two dogs growing up and had to train them all on my own. I am not a professional trainer, but I am very patient and open to teaching your dog some new things. my work shifts are 7 days on and 14 days off. So I have a lot of free time to fill and have availability for longer stays. I live on a 5 acre property with three other homes next door. There is a fenced yard in the back and lots of free space to let your dog roam with my Nina.
