“Charlene is a rock star! I was worried about leaving my pittie in dog boarding since I had just adopted him. However, Charlene was the perfect choice. Her house is extremely pet friendly and her little pups are adorable. I loved that she kept me updated with pics of Brax’s status. Thanks, Charlene!”

“Even when Ruby showed up with a cone and some hotspots at the last minute, Lilian was a professional and helpful sitter for our dog, giving her warm compresses on her sore spots and swapping out and washing her cone each day.”

“I’m very happy with our first experience boarding our senior dog, Luca, with Kristy. Her communication with me from start to finish was excellent and as other reviewers have mentioned, she sent lots of photos of Luca. She’s got quite the eye for capturing your pet from all angles and showcasing how adorable your pet is (: I really appreciated how attentive she was to Luca, especially given his age (14!) and special needs. Overall, Kristy made me feel confident that Luca was in good hands and enjoying himself! Thank you Kristy!”

“Doja loved staying with Yunhee & Kevin. They took really good care of her and were great about sending updates and were super thorough. You can tell they really care about doing a great job to make sure your pet feels at home. Highly recommend!”

“Nino had his first overnight stay at Kelly’s for 3 nights while I was on a much needed vacation. I missed him so much while I was away, but Kelly was so great with regular updates and pictures/videos. He had so much fun and didn’t even want to leave when it was time to go home. I like to joke that he’s the one that’s on vacation when he gets to go to Kelly’s. 😆”

“We had a great experience with Suzanne! She was responsive and sent us daily pictures and messages about our dog's well-being, mood, and activity level. This was our dog's first time boarding over night and we couldn't have asked for a better first experience for him and for us!”

“Kelsey and Harvey were *incredible* sitters for my little terrier mix pup, Penny! This was the first time I've traveled without my dog in a while and they gave me nothing but peace of mind while leaving my girl in their hands. Amazing photos, communicative and quick to respond updates, all showed me how comfortable my girl Penny was in their home and with their sweet dog Maggie. I will definitely be booking Kelsey and Harvey again soon! ??”

“Our family’s fav. We love getting pics and updates when we’re away. Our girl always has a great time and loves spending time with her doggie play pal. Chawntea is the best provider!”

“Megan was amazing! Kept us up to date with lots of photos and was super flexible when our flight home got delayed. Will definitely book again!”

“I had daily updates with very pertinent information about my furry child. She went above and beyond and even cooked some rice for him because of his stomach issues. I liked her communication and accessibility. I would definitely recommend her. Thank you for taking care of my special boy.”

“Harley had an amazing time with Marc and Jayne and enjoyed her time with lots of new furry friends. Marc and Jayne provided such great care to Harley and I enjoyed receiving pics of how she was enjoying her stay with them. She was definitely loved and cuddled. Marc and Jayne's home is perfect for your furry pal's vacation. Harley can't wait to be back!”

About: I have had a dog my entire life from the time I was a kid, ever since I can remember. I am skilled with dogs and I've taken dog training classes so I know what your dog is saying by reading his/her body language. I am good with puppies and older dogs and I can also manage a dog whose somewhat skiddish or scared by moving slow and taking time to let the dog trust me. I have two dogs of my own and I walk them daily on long walks, usually 1.5 hours in the oakland hills . Happy to bring your dogs along or happy to have them come stay with me at my house should you need it. Pet care fits into my everyday schedule as I have 2 dogs of my own (they are socialized and good with other dogs). I would Say I spend about 1.5 hrs walking them per day total plus time for attention when hanging out at home. I work from so it's easy to have the dogs here with me and they get plenty of attention and love. I have a fenced yard with space for some running but most of the running takes place while out on long walks. I also have a good clean pet friendly home. I am great at following instructions when It comes to dog sitting or house sitting. I'm dependable and trustworthy and I know how to care for your dogs safely in any environment whether your house or having them at my house.

“Amy is friendly and nice. She took good care of Kobe while we were away! She sends picture of Kobe everyday. Would definitely recommend her if u are looking for someone reliable to look after your pet!”

“Shadow had a fantastic time with Jeff and his family! We appreciated being able to do a meet and greet beforehand to make sure he would be a good fit, and we really enjoyed getting photos of him throughout the weekend. We were able to enjoy our time away knowing he was in good hands. We look forward to having Shadow stay over with Jeff and his family the next time we go out of town. Thanks again!”

“Timber had a great time with Emerson! Sitter is very responsive and professional. Timber seemed to enjoy the company of the other dogs under Emerson's care. Provided daily pictures.”

“Desi ran into Donald's yard at drop off for his stay. You can tell he loves being there! Donald went above and beyond to wash Desi after he got into a mess with his weekly dog pack ! We all feel so safe leaving Desi in Donald's care.”
