Dog Boarding Melrose

“Alexandra is such a great pet sitter. We have a very high energy dog and she makes sure he gets plenty of exercise and socializing with other dogs. She also is wonderful about keeping us informed on his daily status and sends pictures and videos. She is our go to for pet sitting.”

“Thank you Megan & Jenny! I needed to board my dog for one night with short notice and Megan & Jenny were able to board him. They responded quickly to my request and communicated with texts and photos during my dog's stay. My dog looked happy and it seems like he was well cared for. I will be contacting Megan & Jenny again for dog sitting and boarding.”

“This is my second time booking with Areyona. She is a great communicator, I feel very comfortable leaving my dog with her. She takes great care of her.”

“Hy and Arlo were amazing as usual! They took great care of our dog during fireworks, always concerned about his needs and are so flexible and accommodating when we had a flight delay. There’s a reason Clutch always come back happy and loved!”

“Astrid was a lifesaver! The dog sitter for my active Aussie Shepard/pitbull mix had a medical emergency and she agreed to watch my Lola on a week’s notice. Lola can be a handful (she is very hyper until she gets used to people and is reactive towards other dogs) but Astrid and her family were so sweet and patient to Lola that she settled in quickly. Astrid provided updates regularly which reassured Lola was well loved. Will definitely hire Astrid again to dog sit Lola since Lola had such a great time!”

“Our girls had a great time with Chad and his family. We will definitely be reaching out again in the future. Thanks so much for taking such good care of our babies!”

“Inkoo was a wonderful host for Tino, keeping him happy with lots of long walks, naps in the sun, and snuggles even on the bed. I loved her daily updates with pictures of him clearly relaxed and enjoying himself. Top notch care! I appreciate that she took my request with fairly short notice and was able to do a meet and greet the next day! We will definitely be reaching out to her again for future boarding needs.”

Lina H.

“If I could give Kelly SIX or SEVEN stars, I would! Our dog absolutely loves her. Her attention to detail, caring demeanor and genuine love for dogs shines through in everything she does. Her philosophy is that a stay at her house is like a vacation for our puppy, too. She is the best.”

Alexandra N R.

“Shannon is a phenomenal sitter. Our Miri absolutely loves her and Rocky. Miri is always happy to see her and when he’s with her we feel completely at ease knowing that he’s in good care. She takes amazing photos and I would encourage her to start a pet photography side business! As a sitter Shannon has been so accommodating by being able to be flexible when we’ve had some unexpected travel come up. She is very responsive and sends daily updates. We will continue booking with Shannon in the future.”

“Aymye was amazing! Leo loved hanging with her. She kept us updated, took him on long walks and outings to parks. Will book again!”

Meghan A.

“We are very pleased with the great care and communication Erika provided while watching over Sherlock. We highly recommend Erika and will be back again in the future. Thanks!”

Edward K.

“Meera was great to work with, very responsive and flexible and sent lots of photos. Took Luna for nice long hikes and was thoughtful enough to ask about allergies before giving any new treats. Would book again!”

Breanna J.

“Chawntea is amazing! Bear was well taken care of and she sent many pictures and videos of him so I could see how much fun he was having. Definitely recommend!”

Nicolette B.

“Suzane is a rockstar and our frenchie loves going there! Really nice to have someone caring and trustworthy to look after our girl when we’re away.”

Kelvin A.

“Paule was so sweet with aviva! Super communicative and friendly. Really love your space, super dog friendly. Will definitely book again”

Madison L.

“Our dog had a wonderful weekend with Faye and I’m sure he was sad to have to come back home with us. Faye was great with sending updates throughout the weekend and keeping us up to date on how our dog was doing. We will definitely book with Faye again!”

Jenna S.

“Kristen and Ryan were incredibly warm and accommodating when first meeting my small and nervous doggie. They showed their home and clearly demonstrated a level of care and experience that gave me a lot of comfort and would definitely rebook. They were also attentive of how our dogs interacted and made sure they experienced little to no distress. Highly recommend their services 🩷”

Bianca M.

“I received a lot of communication, videos and pictures from Jonathan. It was clear that our Minnie was being taken good care of and having a good time. This made us feel so happy that we can go out of town and leave her in good hands!”

About: I am a veterinary technician with 16 years of experience providing skilled, compassionate care for pets of all ages. I specialize in senior and medically inclined pets, in-home boarding, medication administration, and creating a calm, safe, nurturing environment where pets feel comfortable and secure. I work Tuesday through Friday from 8:30 AM to 4:30 PM. Pets are never left unattended for long periods, and if a pet needs to accompany me to work for continued care or supervision, I can safely accommodate this. Evenings, overnights, weekends, and Mondays are fully dedicated to pet care, boarding, medication administration, and attentive companionship I provide a safe, structured, and nurturing environment in my apartment with a large, secure outdoor courtyard for supervised exercise and enrichment. The building has elevators and multiple exit points, allowing for safe, controlled movement during potty breaks, walks, and emergencies. Pets are closely monitored at all times to ensure comfort, security, and well-being.

About: I have only pet-sat for friends doggos and cats in the past. Now that we are in a bigger place with a small yard, I’d love to work with you and your dogs. I will follow your directions and love your doggo right. I have had several Ridgebacks and Dobermans, a greyhound, and a viasla in my life and now love my two small ones - a rat terrier mix and a Pinchiweenie. I work from home and my desk is downstairs right by the back door so the door is open all day for my pets to go out as they please. I live in a quiet neighborhood with sidewalks for nice walkies around my neighborhood which has lots of grassy areas. I have time throughout the day for walks if needed and I make a point to have playtime with balls or toys throughout the day. We live just a few minutes from Oakland Airport in an 2 story townhome with a small (20 ft x 20ft), fully enclosed yard with areas for potties. It has great morning and early afternoon sun and I always have beds outside for sunning. The door is open for them to goes out as they want. We allow our pets in the couch and I office downstairs to keep an eye on the doggos. I have several water bowls around for hydration. I feed my girls a combination of kibble and homemade dog food, so “special meals” are not an issue for me.
