Doggy Day Care Clawson

“Matthew and Van Joseph were fantastic dog sitters! They not only took great care of my dog, but also gave me a peace of mind with frequent updates and clear communication. My dog can be nervous in new environments, but felt right at home with Matthew and VJ! 10/10 highly recommend!”

“Latricia is a wonderful pet sitter. She made me and my family feel comfortable from the time we met her. She was super professional and invited us in with open arms. I felt totally safe leaving my two French bulldogs with her and will definitely be booking her again.”

“Alison was really nice, and my dog was drawn to her right away at our meet and greet. She was really understanding with me as a first time app user, and made me feel safe about leaving my dog with a stranger for the first time. She handled my dogs separation anxiety really well and sent me updates so I wouldn't worry. I would definitely book again.”

“Ruthy is the best! Huey goes to the dog park multiple times a day and is socializing with the other dogs all day. He comes home tired, happy and hungry. Thank you ruthy!! ”

About: Hey there! 🐾 My Wi-Fi name is "House of Dogues". That probably tells you everything you need to know about me. I've been around pups my whole life: walks, sits, feedings, bath time, you name it. Friends, family, neighbors have all trusted me with their fur babies, and I take that seriously. But also I make it really fun. Here's what makes me a little different: I follow the dog's lead. Some pups want a big adventure. Others want a slow sniff-everything kind of walk (honestly iconic). On our walks, they pick the route. I'm just happy to be invited. I also put together little enrichment activities because a stimulated dog is a happy dog, and yes, I talk to them like they understand everything I'm saying, because they do. I'm a big dog park person too, but I'm picky about it in the best way. I stick to parks where I already know the people and the dogs, so I know exactly what kind of environment your pup is walking into. No surprises, just good socialization with faces I trust. When your dog stays with me, they get a whole day tailored to their vibe: cozy, active, or somewhere in between. And you? You'll get so many photo and video updates you might actually forget you miss them. Might. At home I live with Totó, my shichihuahua who is fully convinced he runs this household (he does). He's taught me everything about big personality in a small body, and he's an excellent host. I have a special soft spot for senior dogs. I know how to give them the patience, gentleness, and extra love they deserve. My clients always say the same two things: they got way more updates than they expected, and they finally felt okay leaving their dog with someone. That's the whole goal. 🐶 I work remotely, which means I'm home most of the day and genuinely available, no scrambling, no rushing. Midday walk? Morning sit? Last-minute check-in? I can make it work. Pet care isn't something I squeeze into my routine, it basically IS my routine. Your dog will never feel like an afterthought. Safety is everything to me, and so is making sure your pet actually enjoys their time. In your home, I follow your instructions closely, keep things clean and consistent, and make sure your pup always has water, food, and lots of love. On walks, I stick to routes and parks I know well, with dogs and people I already trust. No random off-leash situations, no surprises. At my place, it's calm, cozy, and very much a dog household (my Wi-Fi is literally called "House of Dogs"). Totó, my shichihuahua, is a great host as long as you respect that he's in charge.

“Thanks Sophie for taking good care of our dog Hobbes! We had Sophie watch Hobbes while we attended a concert in Berkeley. We had drinks at a spot in Oakland beforehand and her place was a quick stop on the way to the venue. Hobbes seemed to have a blast playing while there. She shared some photos which was a nice touch. We will gladly reach out again if we need pet sitting in the area.”

About: I’ve built a loyal client base since 2022 primarily through word of mouth and have many excellent references. I have experience caring for dogs with a wide range of personalities, needs, and routines, and I consider myself well-prepared to handle a variety of situations. I’m highly communicative, proactive, and attentive to each pet’s individual needs. I always strive to go the extra mile for my clients, making sure both pets and their people feel heard, respected, and confident in their care. This work brings me a great deal of joy, and I genuinely love getting to know and care for each animal. I work remotely, which gives me the flexibility to provide pet care throughout the week and travel across the Bay Area for in-home sits. Pets are also welcome to stay with me at my Emeryville loft. I have an 8-year-old Chihuahua-Terrier mix who is friendly with most animals and mostly keeps to himself. I prioritize regular walks, play, enrichment, and plenty of affection throughout the day. When caring for dogs in their home, I aim for 2–3 walks daily on safe, familiar routes; there is also a dog park directly across from my loft if that’s a good fit for the dog. I follow each client’s care instructions closely, communicate proactively if questions come up, and keep clients updated with photos and messages so they can feel confident their pets are happy and well cared for.

“Communication was super and thanks Leonard for his flexibility :)”

“Very impressed with Hong! We had a last-minute change of plans and needed a sitter for our girl Spoon, and Hong was absolutely amazing. She cared for Spoon like she was her own, which gave us so much peace of mind. She’s incredibly thorough and keeps us updated throughout the day—even down to every bowel movement—which we really appreciated. We’re so grateful to have found her and will definitely keep booking with her. Highly recommend! 🤍”

“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.”

“Great adaptable service. My pup had a wonderful time:)”

“Koa loves going to Courtney's. Courtney keeps you updated throughout the day with pictures and other information. She also groomed Koa while she was there and did a great job. We will definitely use her again!”

Darci B.

“We had a great first daycare with Nikolai! He is very responsive and easy to coordinate with. It was nice to know Jax was having a fun day with other dogs and nice people. Excited to go back again!!”

Kendall B.

“Simba had a fantastic time. He came home happy and ready for bed. Mary took lots of photos and we would be happy to use Mary again when we are in the area.”

Katherine B.

“I felt a little unsure of dropping my dog off to someone I didn't know but started to feel more comfortable the more I spoke with Hye. Then Rudy, my pup, and I met Hye in person and we both were put very much at ease. Hye and Rudy hit it off immediately and I was fine leaving him with her. Hye updated us with photos and really "loved" Rudy and my wife and I were able to relax and enjoy our evening. I would totally recommend Hye and her husband for the care of their family member.”

About: Hi there! I'm Jodi. Alongside being a devoted dog owner to my senior Italian grey hound mutt, Bruce, I have extensive experience in walking and dog sitting. Your dog will enjoy fun playdates, walks, and naps. Based in Emeryville, I'm comfortable with dogs of all sizes. Just let me know your dog's quirks, and I’ll take care of the rest! My experience with administering medication: I can confidently administer medication as long as I'm shown the proper method beforehand. With a deep love for dogs and years of experience, I provide personalized dog walking services to keep your furry friend happy and healthy. I understand that every dog is unique, so I tailor each walk to meet their specific needs, whether it’s a leisurely stroll or an energetic run. Your pet’s safety and happiness are my top priorities, and I’m committed to giving them the attention and care they deserve. Let me help your dog enjoy their day while giving you peace of mind. When I dog sit, I work from home and am here all day. If your pup is up for it, we'll go on long morning, afternoon, and evening walks. Your dog will have plenty of supervision and cuddle time. Extra house-sitting services? Let me know, and we can discuss! I’ll follow your schedule to maintain structure and consistency for your pet. We'll stick to their regular meal times, walks, and fun activities to burn off energy. I’ll be home with them all day, ensuring they have a safe place to play or rest while you're away.

“Wow! That’s a busy walk. If there are distractions, I just give Molly the command to leave it and continue to walk. I expect her to behave with good leash manners. When she has the privilege to be off leash, it’s fair game to chase a squirrel or play with a dog if appropriate. Please do not worry about reporting back you gave her medication on time. I trust you:)”

“Anchisa is wonderful with dogs! She managed Joey’s puppy antics beautifully and kept in touch during the day with frequent updates and photo. Joey was clearly happy and completely at ease with her and her husband. Highly recommended!”

“Julie clearly loves and knows dogs and has a wonderful environment for hosting them. Snowy came home happy as though she had a vacation day. Our thanks to Julie.”
