Dog Boarding in McClymonds, Oakland, CA

“Matthew and Van Jospeh did a wonderful job hosting our dog, Stanley, for a 2 night stay. They were very easy to work with, were flexible, very friendly, and Stanley seemed at ease the moment he met them. Would absolutely use their boarding services again. Thank you!”

“Karen and Hisako are so kind and take great care of your pup. They create engaging adventures to keep the pups happy. Echo comes home feeling and looking great!”

“Our dog Brody seemed comfortable with Alex from the first introduction and did very well in her care. She has an upbeat and welcoming manner, and a wonderful way of speaking to him directly. He often does not eat the first day or so that we were away but that was not a worry when he was with Alex. She understood his needs very well and took excellent care of him. I would definitely use Alex again for his care.”

“Fruko loves Jake! He spend the best time at his place, hanging with new furry friends. Thank you so much Jake, 100% recommended. If you’re looking for a trustful and loving dog sitter Jake is the best option! 🐶🐾”

“If I could give Mariola 10 stars I would! It can be very nerve wracking to leave your fur baby somewhere new, especially for an entire week, but immediately, I knew my senior pug Pennie was in excellent hands with Mariola! In fact, so much so, that Pennie was more than content to stick around longer when I came to take her home on day 8. I so appreciate having a loving, caring responsible dog sitter like Mariola so close by to care for my pug while I’m traveling for work. Thank you again so much!”

“Jenny and Megan were great communicators and sent so many pictures while we were away. Athena seemed to be having the time of her life. It was such a comfort to know she was in good hands. We’ll definitely be coming back for future dog boarding:)”

“As always a great experience with Kani. Lexie loves her visits here and Kani is always great with my erratic pick up and drop off times. Thank you again!!”

“Marlene was wonderful! She was very responsive, kind, and reliable. We met before, so she could be introduced to and ask questions about Birdy. She has a great home environment, and I definitely felt like my pup was in great hands. I would be more than happy to work with Marlene again (as would Birdy!)”

“Danielle and Joel are fantastic dog sitters. I truly cannot recommend them enough. They bring me so much peace of mind everytime I leave my little pup with them.”

“Albina was great with our dog! He can be very particular about people but he loved her, & got lots of walks & outings! She was super patient with him & we got great updates while we were gone. We would love for our dog to hang with her again!”

Danielle R.

“We have a big rescue dog, Lupin, who is nervous around new people and leash reactive/frustrated because he wants to play with every dog he sees, and Karen was fantastic with him. It was very clear at our meet and greet at the park that she knew how to deal with such issues, and knew a lot about dogs and their behavoir. We did a one night trial run to get lupin used to them for longer boarding and they were very kind to him - we have already booked 2 more trips. At our meet and greet, her lovely pup was a marvelous calming influence on our 2 yr old.”

“Madeleine was again a great sitter for our very high anxiety dog. She made him feel right at home snuggled under the blankets and soaking up the sun! Always friendly, flexible, and punctual!”

“Thank you Isaac and Jordan for taking such great care of Max! My dog has a lot of separation anxiety and can be a bit of a handful at times, but Isaac and Jordan did a great job making sure he got a lot of care and attention throughout his stay. I got a lot of great pictures and updates throughout his stay, and they even have a large doggy play-place and potty area where Max got to play and meet other fur friends.”

About: I provide calm, attentive care with a focus on routine and safety. I understand that every dog is different, and I aim to keep their environment steady and comfortable while you’re away. I enjoy taking dogs on regular walks and occasional hikes, giving them time to explore while keeping things structured and safe. I adjust to each dog’s energy level, whether they prefer an active outing or a more relaxed pace. I’m organized, communicative, and reliable. You can expect clear updates and photos so you feel informed and at ease. I treat every pet with patience, love and respect, and I’m committed to providing dependable care you can trust.
