Doggy Day Care in El Sobrante

“Gracie loves to play with Nadine’s dogs. She had a great time! Thank you, Nadine, for taking care of my pup. I have no anxiety while she’s with you. I know she’ll have fun.”

“Yukon is an amazing host! We couldn't have asked for anything more. She took great care of our Lady bug. Gave us timely updates with pictures after walks, meals, and poo breaks. Lady also enjoyed hanging out with her fellow schnauzers. I highly recommend their services and plan to be repeat clients!”

“I would absolutely recommend Sabrina to anyone in need of a sitter! She is the most kindest and caring person I have ever met💕 I completely trust Sabrina and her family with Tucker 1000% Tucker loves her and her family as much as his own and is always excited when he comes over. Being new to the Bay Area Sabrina has always looked out for Tucker and I, and I can’t ever thank her enough 💕”

“I highly recommend Asatur for your pet stay whether it is just day care or for boarding. His love for dogs is obvious in how the dogs respond to him. My Labradoodle, Bailey is a Velcro dog and finding care outside of our home has been a challenge. Bailey has warmed up to Asatur after one day stay and has just completed her first overnight stay. I’m now feeling very secure that she will do quite well when we are gone for extended lengths of time. This has opened the possibility of long stalled travel plans again since my retirement. Thanks Asatur!”

“Allora and her family are awesome!! You can tell they genuinely love dogs. Nori seemed so happy and comfortable with them. Allora only cares for 1-2 dogs at a time. She makes sure they get one on one attention and they are closely supervised at all times. We are lucky to have found Allora.”

“Tiffany’s family is absolutely delightful. My little pup had a blast playing fetch with them and felt completely welcome and comfortable very quickly. Tiffany is a very caring sitter and genuinely wants to help you and your dog out. Will definitely book with her again.”

“Milad was incredibly communicative and incredibly understanding with our boy! Rottweilers are big dogs that are vocal and peculiar and Milad took the time to build trust with him! When we left, our boy fell right asleep! The yard was great, and he really listened to our communication! Highly recommend!”

About: About Me I'm a devoted dog lover who specializes in caring for reactive and anxious dogs - the ones that are often misunderstood. Working from home gives me the flexibility to provide the consistent, patient care these special dogs need. My own journey started with my 6.5-year-old lab-pit mix who taught me everything about reactivity, high prey drive, and anxiety. Though she doesn't live with me full-time (which I miss terribly!), she's shown me incredible progress over the years - she's much calmer now, can get along with other dogs with proper introductions, and mostly just wants to nap and be loved. My partner's 6-year-old standard poodle is a certified service dog who's wonderful with dogs of all temperaments and serves as a calming presence. Why I Do This Having lived with a reactive dog, I know the frustration of finding someone who truly understands your dog's needs without judgment. I want to be that person for other dog families - someone who sees past the "difficult" label to the loving dog underneath. My Approach: • I always carry high-value treats during walks to redirect and reward good behavior • I'm experienced with reactivity management and reading dog's body language • I believe in structured socialization: supervised co-existence rather than forced play, with short play sessions (15-30 minutes) followed by decompression time • I avoid dog parks to prevent overwhelming situations and maintain control • I'm comfortable with senior care and daily medication routines My Setup I prefer starting with walks to learn your dog's personality, triggers, and preferences. I take one dog at a time for boarding to ensure your pet gets my complete attention and isn't overwhelmed. My partner's gentle service dog provides a calming role model when appropriate. I plan my schedule weeks in advance, so early booking is appreciated for the best care. Working from home gives me the flexibility to be present throughout the day, which is perfect for providing consistent care and attention. I love having pets around while I work - they actually make my day more enjoyable! I do play sports some evenings, but I always plan my schedule around any pets I'm caring for. If I'm boarding a dog or have a pet sitting commitment, I make sure my evening activities don't interfere, or I'll arrange my sports schedule well in advance so there's no conflict. Your pet's routine and needs always come first. I treat every pet like they're part of my own family. My backyard is completely fenced, so dogs can play safely while I keep a close eye on them - I'm always right there with them, not just watching from a window. I love that my neighborhood is so quiet and peaceful, and we're lucky to be just a short walk from the beautiful Bay Trail, which is perfect for dogs who love longer walks or new scenery. Your pet's safety and happiness are my top priorities, and I make sure they're never left unsupervised.

About: I’ve been caring for animals for over 13 years, including my own special needs dog, Jimmy. We adopted him from the Humane Society, and since then, he’s been part of our family. Jimmy has required extra care due to medical and mobility issues, and through him, I’ve learned how to be patient, gentle, and attentive to every pet’s unique needs. I have hands-on experience with: Special needs and senior dogs Administering medications Building trust with shy or anxious pets Providing a calm and loving home environment Your pet will be treated like my own — with love, respect, and plenty of cuddles. Whether you're away for a day or a week, I’ll make sure your pet feels safe, happy, and cared for like family. I'm home and available most of the day, which allows me to give pets the time, attention, and care they deserve. Whether it’s walks, playtime, feedings, or just quiet companionship, I can easily adapt to your pet’s routine. Since I already care for my own dog and have experience with cats, pet care is a natural part of my daily life. I enjoy being active and love spending time with animals — they truly bring joy to my day! I care for pets in my own home or through drop-in visits — I do not stay overnight in clients’ homes. In my home, pets enjoy a safe, quiet, and loving environment with plenty of attention, walks, and playtime. I keep their routine as close to normal as possible, including feeding times and medications. For drop-in visits, I make sure your pet gets everything they need while you're away — food, fresh water, outdoor breaks, and lots of love. I’m respectful of your space and always follow your care instructions closely.

“Shashi and her family took great care of our boy Bruno! They’re very communicative and flexible, and their friendly husky made a great companion for Bruno. Thanks!”
