Doggy Day Care in Longfellow, Oakland

“Lilly has looked over my energetic puppy Juice before & when I was in last minute need for a sitter she was quick to step in a look after him. Lilly sent plenty of updates and most importantly Juice enjoys his time with her. Thank you once again!”

“Aman was excellent with Deuce. He came back happy, excited, and ready to play. He sent me a pic of Deuce while in his care, and gave me updates during his time there. I’d definitely book with Aman again. He was pleasant, polite, and kept me updated. Great vibes all around.”

“Ashley helped us out in a pinch and exceeded our expectations! She cared for our dog and quickly helped acclimate our anxious dog. We’ll definitely be asking Ashley for services in the future! Thanks for loving our pup like your own :)”

“Finn had a great time with Vanessa. She’s very kind and easy to communicate with, and Finn appreciates her great yard. Finn had a great time with Vanessa’s dog Robin. We will definitely book again!”

“Lily had a nice visit with Renae, her boyfriend, and their sweet dog, Kimchi. I appreciated how patient Renae was with Lily's appetite issues due to chronic kidney disease. I feel comfortable leaving Lily in her care.”

“I can't recommend Heather and Ilaria highly enough! From our first interaction, communication was excellent. It was such a relief knowing Rio was in such caring and capable hands. I could tell Rio was happy and comfortable, and I appreciated cute photos! I will absolutely be using their services again and wholeheartedly recommend them to anyone looking for a trustworthy and loving dog sitter.”

“Michelle is great with dogs. You can see the rapport and experience she has with dogs right away. We started with a meet and greet, where Michelle listened to our expectations and asked questions of us, and we made a booking for a day visit. On drop off, she took our pup R on a quick walk to get her away from us (later, she told us that that's better than having a specific goodbye), and R trotted after her happily. We got some photos and reports during the day, and at pickup time, R was glad to see us, but also went back to Michelle for some petting before we left. We are planning to leave R with Michelle for boarding during our summer holiday.”

About: I’m a Fear Free Certified Professional, currently studying animal behavior. I’ve been running my own home based doggy daycare and boarding house for four years. My care is crate-free (unless that's what your pup's preferred at-home routine is,) with regular group outings to trails and the beach. I live in a two level home where the entire downstairs and fenced backyard are just for the dogs! It’s colorfully set up as the coolest doggie social club, but the pups are welcome throughout both levels of the home. They are never forcibly isolated and almost always prefer to be close to wherever I am. I keep my client list small and personal—almost all of my dogs have been with me for years. I don’t aim to pack the house; I aim to give the best experience possible for every dog and human involved. Even when clients start as one-offs, they usually stick around—because I strive to be a resource for dogs and their families. That’s why I call this place a home away from home. If you're interested, I invite you to come by for a meet and greet—see the space, meet me, and let me meet your little one. I look forward to being your dog’s new best friend! Canine care is my daily life. The dogs are with me throughout the day—whether we’re in the yard, around the house, or out on a trail. I structure my routine around their needs, with group outings, downtime, and a consistent rhythm. If my personal life calls me away, I have an amazing assistant Alaina who steps in. She also co-runs the daycare! I focus on keeping things consistent, calm, fun, and full of bonding—play, rest, outdoor time, and enrichment are all part of the daily rhythm. Outside of daycare hours, the space functions as our home too, so dogs experience a relaxed, real-life environment, not a facility. I send updates, pictures, and videos throughout the day.

“Noni was so great and Tahoe enjoyed his stay! He came back with a new toy & we were so happy to get so many updates. She was patient and understanding as he is a shelter dog finding his rhythm in the world.”

About: I grew up with dogs and cats my whole life, have been pet sitting for the past 10 years for friends and family, and we now have a dog daughter of our own – a 3 year old standard poodle. We'll care for your dog just like we care for our own – as part of our family. I work from home primarily and my partner works from home occasionally so your pet will never be alone for too long. We have a yard where our dog and a neighboring dog like to play and we go on 3 walks per day at minimum in the morning, afternoon, and evening. Whether your dog enjoys lots of social time and play or is more relaxed, we are set up to provide your dog with the care and safe space they need.

“Anchisa kept my dog Walter for doggy day care on my long work days. I am completely pleased and so happy we found her! From time of booking throughout his whole stay her communication is excellent with updates and pics! He is no longer nervous when I get ready for work since he knows he will be seeing her. I would trust her completely for boarding if I leave town as well. I am so grateful we found you!”

“Claudio was amazing with Xico. Xico does not always get along with other dogs, but Claudio has the ability to ease any tension or fear Xico may feel around new dogs. Claudio went above and beyond to make Xico feel at home. They even went to Alameda beach! I know Xico felt safe and happy due to Claudio’s warm energy. I’m so happy Xico could socialize and have fun this week!”

About: I have had dogs since I was 6 years old so I have all kinds of experience with dogs and their quirks. Additionally, I have a furry friend who has a disability—my own dog is blind. So, I understand the unique care and attention that dogs with special needs require. Your pup will be in safe and understanding hands! Let's create a comfortable and happy environment for them. 🐶💖 Balancing my part-time work, full-time college schedule, and caring for my own dog has taught me to be super organized. I've got a routine that ensures your furry friend gets all the attention they need. Daily walks, playtime, and feeding are non-negotiables. I've structured my week to accommodate pet care seamlessly, making sure each furry friend gets their own special moments. Your pup will fit right into my pet-loving schedule! 🐶💙 Safety, trust, and a comfortable environment are my top priorities. In my own home, I've set up a pet-friendly space where your dog will feel right at home. I pay attention to their needs, ensuring a secure and loving environment. Additionally, I'll keep my own dog separate, if needed, to make sure each furry friend has their own space and feels comfortable. If I'm taking care of your pet in your home, I'm all about maintaining their routine. Whether it's feeding, walks, or playtime, consistency is key. I want your furry friend to feel comfortable and happy, knowing they're in a trustworthy and familiar space. Rest assured, I'll treat your pet like family, making their well-being my utmost priority. 🏡🐾💕

“Naomi was amazing!! Put my mind at ease and my dog had a great time, when I showed up she was relaxed and excited to show me where she’d been hanging out.”

“Latricia was very welcoming my puppy “Mars” and she took care of him well. She shared photos of my puppy with me how he was playing with her and being well. I will definitely contact her again! ?”

“Maxwell is incredibly slow to trust people. The moment he met Mary at our meet & greet I could Tell she had a special energy (he even tried to follow her into her apartment after they met). After this stay, I am so confident she is going to be an excellent fit for my sweet pup. She spent time with him 1:1 upon arrival before bringing him up to meet her dog (making sure he got comfy), she took him on errands and walks and sent the sweetest photos of him meeting the neighbors, and she was flexible and dropped him off at our house when our plans got delayed. Very much looking forward to more stays with Mary!”

Marcy R.

“Ali's house was a great outdoor space for Luna to play and run around. She was tired after playing all day. Thanks for looking after our puppy”

Julie T.

“We had a wonderful experience with Sarah and Evan! From the very beginning, they were warm, communicative, and made us feel completely at ease leaving Mika in their care. They kept us updated with photos and messages throughout the stay, which we really appreciated. Mika got along great with their dogs and came home happy. It’s clear they genuinely love dogs and treat them like part of the family. We’ll definitely be booking with them again!”

“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.”

“Jess is the best and we are so lucky to have found her!! My dog loved her and her family, and it was clear she had the best time. Jess’s communication is a dream, and I felt so safe having Ellie stay with her. I loved all the picture updates! Ellie was clearly very comfortable around Jess from the moment they met, and I know Ellie will be so excited for the next time she gets to stay with Jess! Thank you for being such an incredible pet sitter, Jess!”
