Doggy Day Care in Kilkare Woods

About: Here’s a professional English version: Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because caring for animals has been part of my life for many years. I structure my schedule around feeding, walks, playtime, and rest periods, and I make sure each pet receives consistent attention, companionship, and monitoring throughout the day. I especially prioritize routine, comfort, and safety, particularly for senior pets, to ensure they feel secure and well cared for at all times. I have a fenced yard and safe and big space of home. In my home, I provide a calm, safe, and loving environment tailored to each dog’s needs. I follow their regular feeding, walking, and medication schedules closely, offer plenty of attention and gentle playtime, and ensure they feel comfortable and secure. I have special experience caring for senior dogs, including monitoring health, mobility, and emotional well-being, and I treat every dog as if they were my own family member.

“Clara was wonderful and very communicative throughout the whole day with Tofu. You can tell she really truly cares not just for her dog, but every dog. She is very sweet and kindhearted and Tofu had a blast staying with her. She sent me pictures throughout the day as well which I really appreciated and spent lots of time with him. We will be in touch soon again, thank you!!”

“Ash and her family have treated my baby Pepper so well. He is just learning to be OK without me. Ash has helped me deal with his separation anxiety and mine :-) by welcoming him into her home.”

“Renuka, Kaushik and their two kids were so wonderful with Mojo. By the second visit he was dragging me up the walkway to their house. I got lots of pictures and Mojo got lots of love 💕 So happy to have found them!”

About: With 30+ years of dog ownership, care, and training of all breeds from Chihuahuas to Dobermans, your pet will be in good hands. I've trained puppies, rescue dogs, working dogs (Schutzhund training), and pets with minor behavioral issues. I have a 23lb spayed beagle who loves other dogs who will engage in play if your dog is active but will respect their space if they prefer to be left alone. I work from home, and can provide 24/7 care for your pet(s). I'm experienced in administering medication, as I have owned both senior and terminally ill dogs. I have a large back yard where your pet can roam or sunbathe under supervision, and I can take your pet on walks during my breaks. For care in my home: ***Dogs must be fully vaccinated and not ill with a transmissible viral or bacterial infection.*** - Pets should be crate trained. If not, I'd be happy to work on incremental crate training at your request. - For puppies and overly anxious dogs, I can accommodate them sleeping in the bedroom, and on the bed if needed. Housesitting/Care In Your Home: - Pets should be up to date on their rabies vaccine. I work from home and care for my own dog 24/7, so adding your pet to our pack would be a welcome addition to my daily routine. While at my house dogs are allowed to play, sleep, sunbathe, roam the yard, but are always under my supervision. Pets will be with me in the front room that's partitioned off by a baby gate, in my home office, in the garden (unless your dog has allergy issues), or in the bedroom. Dogs are allowed on the couch if the pet owner allows this behavior. I want to replicate the owner's rules to ensure the pet's training/boundaries are maintained. If you need housesitting, I will abide by all rules of your house as it pertains to your pet and home, most importantly, respecting your property and privacy. I know how important it is to trust the people watching and caring for your pets and your home. Building and maintaining that rapport is of utmost importance, and I always abide by the golden rule. I work from home during the week and will need access to a stable wifi connection. I will NEVER use your internet connection for downloading or streaming tv/movies/etc., but I may need to join the occasional work video call.

“Phenomenally trustworthy and kind pet sitter. Our puppy doesn’t usually like when I’m not around but she was so excited to go see Ying that I’ll probably be moving forward with booking her weekly. Very communicative, responsible, and caring.”

“My Siberian Husky came back very happy and tired from a fun full day! I really appreciated that he got a long walk first thing and had company and play time all day in a safe, clean house. Really gave me peace of mind and helped me out with my after-work evening errands to have a calm tired dog.”

About: I have had dogs all of my life and consider them people. Often I’ve had two at a time. I have experienced puppies and older dogs at the end of their lives. I love them all though prefer mature dogs. I have also experienced all sorts of dog medical maladies and all kinds of medical treatments. I am currently a volunteer at the Tri Valley Animal Rescue. I am retired and live alone and am available 24/7 for time with your dog/dogs. I live in a park like setting and am accustomed to walking 4 times a day and I have a goal of 10,000 steps per day, if required for the dog. I am retired and available 24/7 for the care of your dog. I love to walk. If the dog is accustomed to sleeping in your bed I am wide open to that or crated if that is what the dog is used to.

“Leena is very nice and her home is setup perfectly to watch your fur babies. Her dog Prince is a sweet boy too. She provides walks, updates, pictures, and everything you can ask for from a sitter.”

About: I provide calm, attentive care and genuinely enjoy spending unhurried time with both dogs and cats. My focus is on helping pets feel comfortable, safe, and well cared for while their owners are away. I have many years of experience with dogs—from childhood, to my own dogs, to fostering long-term dogs through animal rescue, including dogs recovering from injury or past trauma. This experience has taught me patience, good judgment, and how to read an animal’s cues and adjust to their individual needs. I’m reliable, observant, and committed to creating a calm and caring environment for every pet in my care. My schedule is very flexible, which makes it easy for me to accommodate your routine and your pet’s individual needs. I truly enjoy spending time with animals and look forward to giving your pet plenty of attention, companionship, and care. I currently don’t have pets of my own, so visiting pets get my full attention. Pets are welcome in my home, and I have a secure, fully fenced yard for safe outdoor time. If your dog is crate trained, I have a kennel available from previous dog-sitting experience with my son’s dog. I’m also very comfortable caring for dogs who are not crate trained. I enjoy neighborhood walks and light trail walks when appropriate for your dog’s age, energy level, and comfort. Also my two pet loving sons, who are in college, are in the home. They won't be involved in primary care of your pet and they will give your pet space unless you would like them to also spend time with your pet. If your pet is nervous around men we have plenty of space to easily accommodate keeping your pet with me in a separate areas.

About: I’ve spent three years caring for dogs through walking and sitting, providing safe, loving, reliable support tailored to each pup’s personality, routine, and comfort needs. With lots of free time in my daily routine, I’m able to focus fully on each dog I care for, providing steady attention, enrichment, and a peaceful, supervised environment. I provide a safe, reliable home where dogs can relax and feel supported. With frequent potty breaks, daily walks, and attentive supervision, your pup stays comfortable, happy, and well‑monitored.

“Thank you Ashley for taking great care of Koda. I know he enjoys his visits. I said to Koda, I know you like grandma and he was looking around the room. So I know he likes grandma. Thanks”

“Pratima is great. She took on my pup for long term daycare while my partner and I work long hours. She is very accommodating and takes the time to learn all of my dog's tendencies to provide the best care for her. She works from home so I'm glad to know that my pup always has someone to be around.”

About: Growing up, I always had a lot of love for animals and had many different pets from fishes, birds, guinea pig, and dogs. I had a toy poodle for 14 years before she passed and growing up as an only child, she was my best friend and more than a dog. Now, although I don’t have any pets of my own (eventually will!) I love taking care of dogs of my friends and family! I started taking care of dogs around the end of my college years and occasionally take dogs in need for care and more. I know a lot of parks around Pleasanton and tri-valley as I grew up here and would love to take your dogs on a walk! I am also available to check in on your fur baby whenever you need me to. I’m currently working part time, and have plenty of flexibility in my schedule to give your pets the time, love, and attention they need. I make sure to plan my day around walks, playtime, and check-ins so that your furry friend always feels cared for and never rushed. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priority. I create a calm and loving environment, and I’m attentive to each pet’s unique needs and routines. Whether at my home or yours, I make sure they’re safe, happy, and never left unattended for long. I’m comfortable with crates if needed, giving medications, and providing plenty of playtime, cuddles, and walks. You can feel confident knowing your furry friend is in caring, reliable hands.

“A was wonderful with Bear. She was very accommodating in letting me drop him off very early in the morning and understanding when I was running late picking him up. Her home is warm and inviting and she made sure to send pictures throughout the day. I can tell my baby was very comfortable and I was very happy and will have A watch him again in the future.”
