Dog Boarding in McNears Beach, CA

“Mary is kind, compassionate, and extremely attentive to the dogs that she cares for. We were a bit nervous to leave our two rescue dogs for 10 days for the first time, but Mary handled them with grace and ease, and took extremely good care of them. The dogs had so much fun and we could tell they were thoroughly enjoying themselves from the daily photographs that she sent. She followed all of our care directions and medication instructions wonderfully and was highly communicative throughout the stay. I can’t recommend Mary enough! She really is the best of the best of dog sitters.”

“Julie and Adam were AMAZING! They took such incredible care of Axel and we could tell he felt right at home with them. They have a lovely garden that he was able to enjoy - and they even gifted us some delicious greens that they’d grown! What gems they are! Axe is looking forward to seeing them again soon.”

“Emily was awesome with my slightly anxious rescue dog. Sent updates, very responsive, and flexible about drop off and pick up times. Much appreciate the care she gave my little doggo over the course of a weekend and always felt she was in safe hands.”

“Lori is the most compassionate and caring dog sitter I’ve ever met. My dog was injured while I was out of town, and she picked up and took care of my dog with such kindness and compassion. She communicated with me all throughout the day and night until I was able to make it back home. Ziggy & I are so grateful for her. I couldn’t recommend a sitter more!!! She’s amazing!!!”

Each of these dogs have their own characteristics that help me understand every pet has their own unique personality and demands. I currently work from home and have a very flexible schedule. I am available for all your pets needs any day, or night, including weekends. I would prefer to care for your pet in the comfort of their own home & will treat your home as my own. I can walk or use a fenced in yard depending on your home.

“We couldn’t be happier with the care Kim provided for our dog, Boots! From the very start, during the initial meet and greet, we knew Boots was in excellent hands. Kim’s calm and friendly demeanor immediately put us at ease, and Boots took to him right away. Throughout Boots' stay, Kim kept us updated with regular messages and adorable photos, which really helped us feel connected while we were away. Boots is still a young dog, and it was heartwarming to hear that an older dog Kim was also watching stepped in as a “mentor” for Boots! It’s clear that Kim fosters a safe and nurturing environment for all the pets in his care. Our travel plans unexpectedly changed, and Kim was incredibly accommodating, extending Boots' stay without hesitation. This level of flexibility and understanding was such a relief during a stressful time. We wholeheartedly recommend Kim to anyone looking for a trustworthy, attentive, and compassionate dog sitter. Boots came home happy and well-cared-for, and we’ll definitely be booking with Kim again in the future!”

“Radha is amazing. We were so nervous about leaving our anxious dog for the first time. From the first time I spoke with Radha she put me at ease, she was so friendly and professional, I felt confident that she would be a great sitter. She blew our expectations away. I couldn't have asked for a better experience for two people who were so nervous about our trip. She took care of our dog so well, he seemed so happy to be with her and spend time in her beautiful yard. I recommend Radha for anyone looking for someone who will take care of their dog like it's their own. I will definitely be reaching out to Radha again.”

About: Hi! I’m a mom, and lifelong animal lover based in San Rafael. With over 20 years of experience caring for pets—including sitting for all of our friends dogs and cats—I bring both heart and hands-on knowledge to every dog I care for. I work from home and offer dog walking, pet sitting, and boarding 7 days a week. I love being outdoors and make time daily for walks, hikes, and playtime in nearby parks, trails, and beaches. I have twins in high school who were raised around animals and love spending time helping to walk, play, and socialize with our furry guests. Whether it’s a high-energy puppy, a senior dog needing special care, or a shy pup who needs patience and love, I adjust my schedule to meet each dog’s individual needs. I've cared for puppies and seniors needing medication, and everything in between. I'm located right near beautiful walking trails, and beaches, and dog-friendly parks—perfect for pups who enjoy both exercise and social time. When your pet stays with me, they’re part of the family. Safety, affection, and joy come first in our home—and yours. Let’s chat about how I can help care for your four-legged friend! I work from home and have plenty of flexibility to pay attention to your pet. I have twin teenagers who both love animals. Your pets won't be short on play mates or love here! I am right by a great park and trails for fun walks. I don't have a crate for sleeping, but I have comfortable dog beds. I cook for our pet milo, so if you need home cooking Ican accommodate that. Milo is almost 17 years old! He is part Corgi and Part Belgian Shepard. He loves other pets that visit us.

“Our Shepherd/Husky loved staying with Allora and her family. He loved being able to play with their dog Boba, chasing each other around in their large outdoor backyard. Allora was very attentive and sent pictures every day, keeping us up to date with all the activities they were up to, which included walks every day, and being involved in family activities. I will definitely choose to leave him with Allora in the future too.”

“Kevin and Arushi were great! We recently had our wedding in the area and wanted to have our dog nearby because he was our ring bearer. It was a very big day! Kevin and Arushi were very flexible, responsive, and coordinated with us and our dog handler. It was seamless and everything turned out perfect. Waldo came home a happy camper. Thank you both so much!”

“Carla was wonderful with our 18 pound mix Charlie! She went on lots of walks despite the rainy weather and was well-taken care of. We would certainly hire Carla again to watch Charlie!”

“I'm really appreciate Nadine's care for Laila. She seemed really nervous on the first day despite having a meet&greet beforehand. Nadine was patient with her and she sent an update every day and I love seeing that Laila is getting along with her cute poms. My car broke down on my last day of the trip and Nadine was able to extend the booking for another day and dropped her back to our house.”
