Top rated Oakland doggy day care sitters

“Bola came through for me last minute and took great care of Bea!! She sent me picture updates and communicated well throughout the day. Will definitely be booking again with her.”


“Katrina was just the best! Couldn’t be happier with the care our Loki got. The pictures and updates I received during his stay provided great peace of mind while we were away! 11/10 recommend”


“Ashley did such a great job with our 5 month old puppy! She made sure Connie felt safe and comfortable during one of our first times away from her, and Connie returned home tuckered out from a great day of play.”



“Liz and her family are ideal pet sitters. My bulldog Daffodil became comfortable quickly and is not eager to leave their home at the end of the day due to the abundant personal attention she receives. Great indoor and outdoor space. Consistent updates and photos. I think Daffodil has found a 2nd family, a home away from home, if you will.”


“Amy provided exceptional care for Maeve during her time at daycare. Maeve had an amazing time playing with her new friend Frank, and Amy treated her with the same warmth and attention as if she were her own. I highly recommend Amy and look forward to booking with her again!”


“As a repeat customer, Maeve comes over for puppy day care almost twice a week, and I can’t thank David & Jerrilyn enough for being so wonderful to Maeve. I trust them with Maeve as I know they treat her with love, compassion and care as they would their own three little puppies. I highly recommend them!!!”



“Ashley and her daughter Marina are incredibly conscientious and caring. Every time I bring my dog to their place, he is excited to run up the stairs and be reunited with his extended family. He truly loves them, and I can see how much they love him as well. 10/10, would recommend Ashley’s services to anyone!”


About: I've been taking care of pets since the I was 12. My family and I have had one english bulldog. Currently we have two french bulldogs, so I understand the importance of the care of bulldogs as well as Chihuahuas! I have always been the go to person to care for and groom our pets. I'm currently in college full time. However, it is online so I have a lot of time to play, walk, and give love to your pets! I have a fenced yard as well as two dogs to play with your pets. I also have one cat. I live close to the Mckinley Park area so there will be a lot of walks.

About: Looking for a dog sitter with a passion for pups and years of experience? I’ve not only been a dog mom for 14 years, but recently assisting in training the now 6 month old puppy that’s in my parent’s care. I’m the #1 dog sitter amongst my network, not only because I work from home and have availability, but because I also include their fur babies in my dog’s activities as well i.e. dog park dates, dog birthday parties, and doggie brunch! I’m a full- time remote employee with a very relaxed work schedule. Your pet will be spending the majority of their time in my care. I have a fenced front yard and a patio along with one 22lbs dog that will keep your pet company. I also have a lot of space to allow the dog to move around as they would like.

“Pamela is the sweetest and Charlie simply LOVES her. I'm so grateful that she cares for him so lovingly and truly enjoys him. She sends sweet updates that warm my heart. Why leave him alone when he can be so well cared for! I'll book with her again and again!!”


“Madeleine was so kind and accommodating. She was very easy to communicate with and was always prompt in her communications. She sent us multiple pictures as well. Highly recommend.”


About: Hi! This is Xinwen. I’ve been living with pets since I was a kid. I’m currently a volunteer at Anti-Cruelty shelter to help both dogs and cats, and I’m proud of it. I WFH and have plenty of time to take your pets out/ play at home. I’m very familiar with pets’ behaviors and could tell what they want: attentions, some alone time, an exciting hunting game…., by their body language. I keep track of their eating patterns and defecation performance, as those are important and straight forward reflections of their moods and health conditions. By these experiences I could give them more accurate cares. Also, I guarantee that I report the real conditions of your babies, instead of pretending they’re doing great just to win your approval. I respect them as human beings. :) I love both dogs and cats. I enjoy spending time with them. Also, I’m very patient and careful. I’ll make sure that your pet(s) get what they need and feel loved! I’m free to arrange drop-ins or walks every workday 7:00-8:00pm. I’m available for boarding and day care every day. Other flexible hours can be discussed with me too! I’m available for drop-ins and overnight stay in your home. I always make sure to provide them fresh food and water, clean the litter box and play/walk with them.

“Willy was amazing with my pup! I love that he has the skill to assist me with my 11wk pup with potty training. Very attentive with my baby and a lot of play time! Love the consistency with the updates and pictures and videos though out the day! Definitely will book against ten stars ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”

I work from home and teach online cooking classes. I have a very flexible schedule to accommodate any needs. I am available 7 days a week, including holidays.

My profound joy in this journey stems from the deep connections formed with these furry friends. Having worked with a diverse array of breeds, I've honed my understanding of their unique needs and temperaments. In addition, my expertise extends to puppy training, where patience and consistency are key. Caring for dogs isn't just a passion; it's a lifelong commitment that brings immense fulfillment. I work a full time remote schedule. I am at home Mondays and Fridays. Im off on the weekends. So I have plenty of time to play and go on walks! I have a small yorkie that can keep your baby company and I have a baby gate for safe separation if needed. I can also crate your baby if that is what you prefer. Your pets can sleep in the room with me on there beds or wherever makes them most comfortable

Lisette S.Star Sitter
“I hired Lisette to walk and care for my 6 year old golden retriever/pit bull mix rescue dog Lucy whenever I would go out of town for business. Lisette is the daughter of my co-worker, the first time she met my best friend Lucy, Lucy was a bit standoffish due to her being uneasy around strangers. After a few hours Lucy loved Lisette and felt comfortable around her. Lisette would care for Lucy for 2 weeks every month while I was away, she would send me daily pictures of their walks or when they were just hanging out. Sometimes Lucy wouldn't want to leave Lisette's apartment. Although I don't travel as much I still employ Lisette to walk Lucy just so that Lucy can see her good friend Lisette. I definitely recommend Lisette to care for your 4 legged friends. Lisette would also watch over my 3 year old cat Benito. Although Benito does not need much maintenance Lisette always makes time to play with him and ensures he eats his food. Lisette also recommended for me to add water to his wet food to ensure he drinks more water for health reasons. I cannot recommend Lisette enough, she is good at what she does, I have also recommended her to other friends who do not have time to walk tbeir 4 legged friends.”
