Dog Boarding in Lagunitas-Forest Knolls, CA

“I totally trusted Sophia and her family to take care of my dog Poka. Poka got great enrichment and outside time, plus lots of cuddles and love from humans (her favorite!). When Poka came back home, she was totally blissed out and relaxed, and I know it’s partially because Sophia made Poka feel at home even in a new environment. We had a lot of advice and notes about our dog’s quirks that we provided upfront, and Sophia was very understanding and respectful of our preferences. This made me feel comfortable with leaving Poka in her care, and next time I need a sitter I’ll definitely ask Sophia. I highly recommend Sophia!”

“Christopher was wonderful ! He took great care of our dog Marley. We also got regular updates and pictures of their adventures (hikes, runs, walks) with him. It was so nice to know she was in good hands and happy!”

“I have never met a person that loves and respects animals more than Justin. He understands animals. Justin has given me so much valuable training advice that I have implemented over the many years which has helped my dogs become well behaved and easy to live with. I have witnesses and seen him train many different types of animals such as police dogs, pit bulls, golden retrievers, labradors and small dogs. When he asked me if i would write a reference for him, the first thing that came to my mind was how lucky those dogs will be spending time with Justin (and the dog owners if in need of training advise as well, will benefit.) The second thing was it’s about time you follow true your passion. There is no doubt once the words gets out and dog lovers learn about his skills, his new dog boarding business will be a success. It is hard to find a boarder that you know will take excellent care of your loved family member ( my dog) No doubt Justin will fit the bill.”

“Dustin was great! He sent us a ton of pictures/videos of our dog during her stay and made us feel comfortable she was in safe hands. Lots of space to run around- our dog came back tired and seeming like she had a blast. Referred Dustin to our friends and family in town! 10 / 5 stars.”

“Nadia was an outstanding pet sitter who went out of her way to make out dog, George, feel comfortable and loved. George is picky with his food, so she made time to feed him by hand, to make sure he would eat something, while with her. She kept us informed of his well-being and stay with her by sending us pics, so that was great to see. I highly recommend her work and hiring her to take care of your pet!”

“Susanna and family were amazing with my almost 3 year old Cocker Spaniel. They knew exactly what to do, the right amount of exercise, naps/chill time and play. He has never been so content and relaxed after coming home from being away! Highly recommend!”

“Melinda took wonderful care of my puppy. Xena had the best time playing with Melinda’s dog and sweet kiddos. Melinda was very responsive and communicative and sent lots of pictures throughout the stay. Highly recommend!”

“Great sitter. We were a bit nervous at first cuz our dog has some bad tendencies but she was great at controlling his leash aggression and kept us updated the whole time. Really great experience overall!”

“Tatiana is fabulous! Extremely responsive, thoughtful, and took amazing care of our pup! She gave us frequent updates, asked great questions, and even got our pup a toy. We will definitely be coming back to have her take care of our puppy!”

“Emily was wonderful! We arranged a meeting in advance to give my dog a chance to see the space and place. Then Emily was flexible with timing as we firmed up plans. She took great care of Aubrey and her dog Gigi was a super pal for Aubrey.”

“Sonia is the best! She’s a wonderfully caring individual that clearly loves dogs and takes great care of them. Her home is well laid out for pups to play and relax, while also being located close by to lots of walking trails for exercise. We feel very comfortable knowing our dog will be safe and well looked after with Sonia. Also, her precious pup Tigerlily does great with other dogs.”

“Nancy is the best. Super attentive, super friendly and very clearly LOVES DOGS. She will treat your pooch like the most important being on the planet. Nancy, thank you so much - we all miss you already!!!”

“Mesgana did a wonderful job. Very professional. You can tell she puts a lot of care and effort into making sure your pet feels comfortable. Highly recommend.”

“Lisa was quick to respond and took care of my dog Gia like it was one of her own! She’s very flexible and reliable, and I felt very reassured having her watch my dog while I was out of town. I highly recommend her services.”

“Emily and Mark Were phenomenal with our pup. What was meant to be a routine trip to the East Coast for the holidays became a stressful delayed vacation thanks to Covid… And so Mark and Emily had to continue being patient as our plans and dates changed. But…Once we finally left…Mark and Emily communicated very well with us both via pictures and emails telling us about our pups day. Despite the rainy days that they had… They were able to keep the dogs entertained and well walked! When we picked up our dog biscoff he was naturally happy to see us… But we could tell that he was happy and well cared for. Emily left some sweet photographs that she had taken during his stay with a kind a message which was a beautiful goodbye token. Whenever I have met someone from Rover for a meet and greet you can always tell who the true dog lovers are and Emily and Mark are just that! Thank you for taking care of fur baby! We hope to use you again in the near future!!!”

“Avital is a very loving pet caregiver. We have had the opportunity to leave our dog with her and her family and have been able to see just how much care and love she gives to her own dog and those she watches. She has a large, fenced backyard where the dogs are free to roam and explore. If you're looking for a responsible, loving caregiver for your dog, you need not look any further. I recommend her without any reservations.”

“Alexandra was wonderful. Excellent communication and she really set my mind at ease sending daily photos and updates on my Ruby Rose! I highly recommend Alexandra.”

“Noey was amazingly attentive and loving, treating Boon as if he was her own. She sent us many picture/video updates which we loved receiving while we were away!”

“Abby seemed to have a wonderful time! Carla was very communicative, worked with us on our timing, and shared lots of sweet photos. We will definitely be happy to work with her again!”

“Kiara had a wonderful stay with Kevin and Rosa, and playing with Banksy really helped her come out of her shell around other dogs. We're so pleased her first time away was such a great experience.”
