“This is my first time leaving Mocha at a sitter’s house and Cindy gave me good confidence that Mocha will be well taken care of. Cindy is so experienced in taking care of dogs and was able to help my dog transition from pee pads to doing his business outdoor. Mocha had a great time at Cindy’s place and made many friends. Cindy kept us updated all the time with photos and videos which we appreciate very much! Thank you for all the love and care for Mocha and for such a great help during this period when we couldn’t bring Mocha along with us!”

“Mary was a phenomenal cat boarder! We’d never boarded our cats before and Mary allayed all our worries. She is very knowledgeable and experienced with cats and has a wonderful space set up for the ones she’s boarding. We received multiple, thoughtful updates and pictures on the cats each day and Mary reached out when there was information about their care that we had forgotten to provide. She also went above and beyond spending time hanging out and playing with them. We highly recommend Mary and will certainly rebook with her the next time we need to board our cats!”

“I am beyond relieved to have found the perfect sitter for Coco. Robin and Dan suggested a meet and greet and then a trial stay so that Coco would get to know them before leaving her there for a longer period. During the two day trial, I was given updates via text, photos and videos. They kept Coco entertained and very well taken care of. They are the sweetest couple and they genuinely love what they do. I highly recommend them!”

“Natalia is the best with my puppies. She sent pics everyday and spoiled them so much. I extended the stay of my pups and she did above and beyond to accommodate my request. We were so lucky to find her and my pups love her.”

“I am so happy and lucky to have found Olivia! She is so sweet and great to work with and I could tell my Ruby girl loved spending the weekend with her. I appreciate how easy it was to get a hold of her and how communicative she was. Ruby had a specific meal plan and Olivia had no problem prepping her meals as requested. Thanks so much!”

“If you’re looking for someone to watch your dog, let me stop you right there! Harper is the best sitter!!! She is extremely kind, communicative and thoughtful. She sent photos and videos everyday which let us know our dog was in the best hands. She made sure to let him run around plenty and also cuddle up for naps. He had the best time with Harper and will definitely be back to hang out with her again!”

About: I have been caring for pets since I was 10 years old and have experience looking after my own pets as well as those of family members and friends! Over the years, I have provided a variety of pet care services, including taking pets on walks, playing with them, feeding them, and bathing them. My experience has helped me develop a strong understanding of pet needs and a genuine love for caring for animals! I'm available on weekdays from 10am-5pm and weekends from after 2pm! Feel free to please reach out even if it seems that I'm not available! I am pretty open unless I have another schedule / bookings. Please try to request a few weeks out so we can guarantee a meet & greet! I have a reliable transportation to go to farther places if needed. I have a fenced backyard for your pets to play in! I have a two story home that allows your pets to comfortably roam around. I currently have no personal pets residing in my house so I will be able to take care of your pet more properly one on one!

“I cannot express how happy we are with our dog-son Ethan's stay with Lea and her husband! This was the first time our guy ever stayed with a non-relative and Lea's frequent photo updates on Ethan's behavior, sentiments, and schedule kept us informed and excited that he too got a little vacation. Before staying with Lea, we did a meet-and-greet to make sure it was a match and Ethan instantly warmed up to her and felt comfortable in her home. I feel so fortunate to have met Lea and to have her in our corner for caring for our sweet boy. Thank you, again, Lea! : )”

“Jonathan and Tatiana were great for our dog! We had a last minute need and they rescued us in the eleventh hour. We are so grateful for their family and the care they showed our dog. They took him to the park everyday and sent updates every evening for the week he was with them. I would highly recommend anyone boarding with them. I won’t even waste my time looking for a different sitter in the future, they are my go to!”

“Great communication and Zoey seemed very happy there. She stayed for around 10 days while I was traveling and Gianna and her family made Zoey feel very welcome while I was gone. I would definitely have her stay with them again.”

“Fuji was so well taken care of during his very first boarding with April, Josh, and Boba! Josh was excellent in his response time to my questions, drop off and pick up was quick and easy, and video updates (loved them) were fantastic to receive! And it was so wonderful to see Fuji walking off their cozy bed (which hints to me that he was allowed to sleep on the bed - a big plus since he sleeps with me in my bed!). Thank you so much, you guys are absolutely fabulous! The house is very clean too, and very open setting which allows the goldens to play as much as they want inside. Fuji is exhausted, and I think wondering where Boba is. Next time for sure! I will book with them again. THANK YOU!”

“Highly recommend booking Izzy for taking care of your fur kid! Great communication from start to end and he sent pictures/videos daily. 100% certain Strudel loved that there was a fenced in backyard to run around and lounge in. Our pup looked so happy that we didn’t think he’d want to come home haha. Thanks again and can’t wait to have more play dates in the future”

“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Angélica and her family took wonderful care of Jarvis. They followed all of my instructions perfectly, including his medication schedule. They sent lots of photos and made sure he was comfortable and happy. They even provided toys, a bed, and food and water bowls when I forgot to bring mine. Jarvis loved playing in their backyard. I would absolutely book with them again!”

About: I have been providing home-style dog boarding and pet care since 2017, with over 9 years of hands-on experience. I also worked for two years at a professional dog boarding and daycare facility in San Francisco and have experience in animal rescue. I am experienced in caring for dogs of all ages and personalities, especially puppies, senior dogs, rescue dogs, and dogs with anxiety or special needs. What sets me apart is my small, home-based care approach. I only accept 1–2 dogs at a time, which allows me to provide full attention, a calm environment, and truly personalized care for each dog. I am patient and attentive, and I adjust my care based on each dog’s personality to help them feel safe, comfortable, and at home. I stay at home most of the time and have a flexible schedule, so caring for pets is a natural part of my daily life. I take dogs out for walks, feed them, and spend time with them every day. I only accept a small number of dogs so I can give each pet plenty of attention and care. Home-style care in Castro Valley. Only 1–2 dogs at a time, never more than a small pack — so every visitor gets personal attention and a calm, consistent routine. Quiet indoor spaces to nap, multiple walks outside each day, and free meet-and-greets before any stay. I've been caring for dogs, cats, rabbits, guinea pigs and more since 2018 and specialize in small and medium dogs under 45 lb.

Cindy took wonderful care of our 2 dogs and kept us updated with frequent photos, which really helped us miss them a little less. She was easy to communicate with, very organized throughout the process, and gave us great peace of mind. We would definitely recommend her!

Jonathan and Tatiana were great for our dog! We had a last minute need and they rescued us in the eleventh hour. We are so grateful for their family and the care they showed our dog. They took him to the park everyday and sent updates every evening for the week he was with them. I would highly recommend anyone boarding with them. I won’t even waste my time looking for a different sitter in the future, they are my go to!

Ashu was wonderful with Radha. She kept us updated with great communication and shared photos throughout the stay, which gave us peace of mind. Radha was well cared for and clearly comfortable with Ashu, her husband, and their two dogs. At pickup, Ashu was very transparent about a few observations that would be helpful to consider for longer boarding stays. We really appreciated her honesty and thoughtful care. We’d happily board Radha with Ashu again and highly recommend her.

Michael and his wife Cindy are very nice and I can trust them for my dog. They both greeted after the booking and they work as a great team for the clear and easy communication. I had to modify my booking due to the schedule change and they were so nice to adjust it for me. I will definitely ask them again to watch my dog when needed. Highly recommend them.

We left our dog, Gabi, for 10 days while we were traveling, and we were very happy with the care she received. Gabi came home happy and well cared for, and we appreciated the regular updates. We would definitely recommend them to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter!

Rashmi was super accommodating and made the whole experience stress free. Our flight kept getting delayed, so we couldn’t pick up our dog until after midnight. Despite the late hour, she was incredibly understanding and didn’t mind at all. Both the drop off and pick up process were easy and convenient. It’s clear that she genuinely cares about the pets she looks after. I highly recommend Rashmi and would definitely trust her with my dog again!

Jocelyn-Lisbeth and her family provided amazing care for our dog while we were away. During the booking stage, she proactively setup a meet-n-greet where she got to know our dog well, asked great questions about taking care of her, and was very accommodating of our specific needs, which instantly gave us a lot of confidence. Later during the actual stay, she consistently shared updates, photos and it was very evident that our dog was happy and well taken care of. Just a day prior to the start of the stay, our dog needed a procedure in her toe that required a strict 10-day medicine and care regime, which prompted us to reconsider our travel. But Jocelyn-Lisbeth readily offered to provide the necessary care and gave us peace of mind to proceed with our travel. She found creative ways to ensure the meds were taken and kept us continuously updated on the medicine intake and healing progress. We very highly recommend her (and her gfamily) and would consider them our top choice for future such needs.

Duke and Ruby had so much fun!! I could tell in every picture and video I was sent that they were super happy. The frequent updates we got really eased my mind. Socorro was great and we will definitely rebook if we go on another trip!! Thank you again for taking them so last minute and being so understanding! You’re the best!!

Tatiana and Lenin took amazing care of my high energy dog. They gave her lots of attention, took her for long walks and played with her, and sent me lots of pictures and videos throughout her stay so I was reassured that she's being well taken care of. I couldn't have taken better care of her myself and I would recommend Tatiana and Lenin's services to anyone. I'm looking forward to booking with them again in the future.
