Doggy Day Care in Lockwood Tevis, Oakland, CA

“Chad took excellent care of my young and energetic greyhound with a lot of separation anxiety. When I picked her up she was happy and excited, but she didn’t show any signs of distress. Prior to my dog’s stay at his home Chad had invited us over for a meet&greet and he took a lot of time to inquire about my dog’s character and behaviors, which made me very confident that things would be alright. Chad was also willing to accommodated my travel schedule. I am happy with the experience and hope he will be available next time I have to go out of town.”

About: Hi, I've cared for animals of all shapes and sizes for my entire life and used to work professionally as an animal caretaker at a kids amusement park. I'm experienced with administering medications and older pets that might have special needs and I'm looking forward to looking after your precious pet while your busy or away! I wfh in my spacious home in the Frick neighborhood of Oakland. I have a 10month old medium sized dog called Mayka who is very friendly and playful with other animals. There's a large completely enclosed backyard with tons of space for dogs to run around and explore. Close to Reinhardt Redwood Regional Park and other large trails to take dogs out on long walks! I work from home at the moment so I will always be able to supervise your pet and I'm available seven days a week and can do boarding overnight I have a large fenced yard and a friendly dog to keep your pet company. They'll have free roam of the entire house and will get supervised access to the backyard. I have a large dog crate and can easily crate your dog if needed

“Baxter had a great day with Kim and her human and dog crew. :) She sent pics with fun commentary several times (much appreciated -- especially on the first day!. Baxter was wiped out in the evening after a day of play. Kim is clearly a pro at dog care. She was very engaged in our meet and greet and asked lots of good questions. She's very pleasant to chat with and communicates proactively. Looking forward to Baxter's next stay!”

“Kai and I enjoyed Chawntea so much that we rebooked. As a first time furbaby mom it’s hard to just leave my baby with anyone. I am so glad to have found her.”

About: Dogs aren’t just pets to me… they’re family. I’ve been caring for dogs for 10 plus years, and I truly love getting to know each pup’s personality, quirks, and favorite belly rub spots. Whether your dog is playful and energetic or more of a cuddle-on-the-couch type, I make sure they feel safe, loved, and right at home. I have an open and flexible schedule, which allows me to give pets plenty of attention and care throughout the day. I’m available for weekdays, weekends, and holidays, and I can accommodate last-minute bookings when needed. Your dog won’t be left alone for long periods and will get lots of supervision, playtime, and companionship. 🐾 I take time to learn each dog’s routine, behavior, and any special needs so I can care for them the way you do. Whether that means sticking to specific feeding schedules, administering medication, or giving them space when they need quiet time, I follow your instructions closely. If I’m in a client’s home, I’m respectful of your space and keep your pet’s routine as normal as possible to reduce stress. I monitor for any changes in behavior, appetite, or energy and will contact you right away if anything seems off. I believe trust is built through communication, consistency, and genuine love for animals and I treat every pet like they’re my own family member. 🐾❤️

“Baxter has stayed Andrea and her pups twice for daycare, with hopefully more days to come! Andrea has a gentle, kind spirit and seems very attuned to a dog's needs. At our meet & greet, she asked great questions about Baxter and his routines. She provided fun updates with pics a few times a day -- much appreciated!”

“This was my first time using Rover, and Erika made me feel totally at ease. She has a calming and positive energy that was well suited to my 7 month old American Bully. I received several photos and videos. Erika also provided some useful tips for walking our puppy. At the end of the day, he was relaxed and slept well through the night. I definitely recommend Erika for your furbaby needs.”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats of different kinds. My love for pets have been for as long as I can remember! Growing up, I have personally cared for medium-sized dogs, specifically a German shepherd and Pitbull, and also 3 different cats. I recently have lived in a house with 5 pit bulls and helped walk, feed and bathe each one for over a year. I currently do not own a pet, but am itching to own one soon. For now, I am happy to assist in bringing comfort and joy into your pet’s life. Anything to help make a family's home easier is what I strive for. I am currently working full time, but have a flexible work schedule that can accommodate to feeding/walking times. I am looking for anyone interested in board & care at my home (limit 2 dogs), occasional overnight or drop in pet-sitting, dog walks, feeding and/or bathing care for your pet. I live in a house with a fenced yard. I offer a safe space to care for your pet. I live with my husband who is also a pet lover. It will help us get out of the house for necessary walks and overall care. Please let me know if your dog is friendly with other dogs as I can host up to two dogs at a time.

“Emerson and his family were great sitters for Bernie. Communication was strong, he even sent pictures and a video to let me know how things were going. We meet the day before so that they would be familiar to my dog. It was a good match from the very beginning. We will definitely use them again.”

About: Caring for your dog is as if he’s mine: his safety, comfort, hygiene, diet and well being is a must. I send updates and cute pictures of your dog in a consistently basis. My business acumen helps me be a multitasker, have awareness to surroundings, have foresight, and staying calm. I do respond to texts pretty quickly. I have a happy, friendly 15 year old dog that your dog can play with. I am self-employed and my schedule is flexible. Could adjust lifestyle depending on pet care needs. Possibly already similar to caring for my own elderly dog. I make sure I know about any health issues, medications, dietary restrictions, vet name. Dog has his ID at all times and well attached to his collar/leash when outside. Walk with a short leash for control. Limit socializing with unfamiliar dogs for safety. In the home, I make sure im aware where the dogs are most of the time.

“Kelly was amazing! She is so thorough in getting to know both the dog and owner at the meet and greet. She put our shy dog at ease immediately, and our dog was very comfortable during her first daycare day. Thank you, Kelly!”

About: I've had dogs and pets in some capacity or another throughout my life and have loved being Sister-2-Legs to each of my four-legged siblings. I have cared for a variety of animals from young to old, mostly cats and dogs, a bird, and a few rabbits. More recently, it's been a mix of senior dogs and puppies. I'm used to balancing puppy training versus the possible complex needs of senior dogs. My own sweet spaniel passed last year, and he lost both his sight and his hearing as he aged, which presented a few challenges but was a very valuable learning experience. I'm comfortable with all ages and stages of life and love spoiling every single furred family member I care for. I adapt my schedule around your pet's needs and routines. Please message me for schedule details. I may be able to offer drop-ins, walks, or daycare either in your home or at my doggy daycare outside of the time slots listed. Daycare: My yard is fully fenced with a grass area for all kinds of running and toy play time. Everyone is welcome to sprawl out on the furniture both indoors and outside. Your dog is given as much attention and love as if they were my own. I look forward to welcoming new furry friends! Housesitting: My preference for my animals has always been to keep them in their home environment where they feel the most safe and secure. I will follow all their daily routines and any other directions provided and treat their space as if it were my own. Depending on your preference, hikes, beach trips, and other special activities can be added to the daily standards of belly rubs, walkies, and cuddles. As I also have a doggy daycare, it would be great if your pets are dog-friendly and able to participate in daycare during our stay!

About: What sets me apart from other sitters is My Energy im able and willing to give. Positive Loving energy like none other! Im sure your pet will fall in love with me and myself in turn, will fall in love with your pet as well. I’ve taken care of dogs and cats of every kind since about 9 yrs. Of age. Family, Family Friends, Friends, and Neighborhood families have relied on me to walk, feed and bathe their pets if need be. What are you waiting for?! Lets Connect!! Im available to watch All Pets (Dogs, Cats, etc.) currently throughout the week. As clientele grows, my schedule will change but will be notified in advance always! My place has a very big yard area for easy potty relief but will also take them out for a walk to release as well. Im able to easily crate your dog if need be. There is ample amount of space in the living room which help makes it a puppyroom/kittyroom depending on your pet and preference. They also have free reign to walk around throughout my place, wherever they choose. Cannot forget Treats! (only with parents permission of course)

“Miki is fantastic and super sweet. She clearly took great care of Leo and sent some awesome pics of their adventures. I would definitely recommend having her watch your creature.”

About: I grew up with 6 pit bulls, taking sun baths with them in my backyard. I’ve volunteered in SF SPCA and donate monthly. My best friend aka Herita is a rescue, she’s been with me for over 3 years now. I believe animals have taught me how to love unconditionally and responsibly. Calm, trust and safety are my top priorities. I hope you give me the chance to connect with you and your fur baby/ babies. I work from home. I normally take Hera on a walk every morning for about 30 mins. Come back and hit the gym. After that I’m free. I can always head over in the am, afternoon or evenings. I have a fenced yard, Herita is spayed and loves to play with other dogs. Her bff is a 3 y/o Doberman. Which I take care of a couple of times a week (take her out on walks and feed her)

“We are so lucky to have Briana to watch our pup. Hersh is very comfortable and loves spending time with her! Having peace of mind when you’re away from your fur baby is important to us so Briana is our go-to! We always enjoy the pics/vids she sends of Hershel ♥️”
