Dog Boarding Oakland

“Casey and Phil were amazing! This was the first time leaving our pup with someone other than family. They did everything to make it a comfortable stay for her and she did awesome. Casey sent daily updates which made our vacation stress free because we knew our pup was having a great time. Definitely will book them again and would highly recommend Casey and Phil.”

“Ciara was incredible with my dog and truly went above and beyond. She kept him active with regular walks and made sure he was entertained with toys and attention throughout the stay. She was super communicative the entire time, giving me updates and keeping me completely in the loop, which gave me a ton of peace of mind. I could tell she genuinely cared for him as if he were her own. Exceptional experience, would absolutely book again.”

“My babies were so well cared for and loved by this family. I can’t say enough good things. If you want your fur babies to be treated like family Alysia is the way to go.”

Sarah E.

“Ruby stayed for a week and came home happy and tired! She loved playing with their dog and enjoyed all the cuddles. Loved all the pics and videos daily.”

Alexis M.

“Benjamin went above & beyond to provide for my dogs. He sent regular updates. I felt extremely comfortable knowing my dogs were being taken care of in a safe place.”

Becky O.

“Jenna and Micheal took great care of Shep! We loved all the videos and photos they sent over the long weekend - it was so great that Shep had a friend to play with all weekend, he was super tired when we picked him up”

“Jennifer was amazing. Highly recommend hiring her to watch your pet. Communication was flawless from start to finish, and she was always incredibly quick to respond to my text updates. I loved receiving the photos she sent throughout the weekend, which gave me complete peace of mind while I was away. She truly went above and beyond to make my dog feel at home. She spent time playing fetch—my dog's absolute favorite game—and was highly observant and adaptable when Daisy interacted with her own two dogs, ensuring all the pups felt safe and comfortable. To top it all off, she even sent my dog home with a toy she had fallen in love with during her stay. I will absolutely be booking her again!”

“I needed their services for the second time, now with two dogs, and I received excellent service. She always sent updates and took good care of them... I recommend them.”

About: I have walked and taken care of dogs since I was super young. I have a young creme and is my world and I treat every dog like it was my own. I haven’t worked in years and both my girls are in school so my schedule is very flexible. I enjoy exercise as well plus I walk my pup daily I have a huge fenced in yard where the dogs can play and lots of room to run around and act like a dog and play

“Thank you so much for bandits visit! Sarah and Ben are fantastic dog sitters that were very accommodating. Bandit seemed to really love his time there and didn’t want to come home from his vacation.”

“It was my first time using services from Rover.com as we have always had someone house/dog sit when we travel. The meet and greet went very well and we felt comfortable leaving our dogs with Breanna while we went on vacation. She communicated with us almost daily, sending messages, photos and videos about how they were doing. This made us feel at ease knowing they were happy and well taken care of, especially being their first time away from home. I would definitely use Breanna again.”

“We were looking for a place to board our special needs Golden and stumbled upon the River app. It was our first time boarding him and we didn’t want to leave him at a kennel. Parker took to Heather right away when we went for our initial visit, and enjoyed exploring one of the many fenced in areas of her property. Her experience with animals, particularly ones of the special needs variety, was what drew me to her. She kept me updated on how Parker was doing (response time was fast) and sent pictures of him on vacation at the farm!! Parker loved staying with her, and will be back again!!”

“Rebecca did such a great job caring for my boy Cody! I went on vacation for 10 days and was super anxious because I never left Cody with a sitter for that long. Rebecca reassured me that Cody will be well taken care of and she did not disappoint! She sent me daily photos and updates on how Cody was doing. She took him on walks everyday! He was a very happy and comfortable boy there! She genuinely cared for him like he was her own! If I ever went away again and needed a sitter I would definitely be contacting Rebecca again!”

About: I’ve been taking care of dogs and cats since I was 9. I’ve owned aggressive / reactive dogs, dogs who need a lot of management, sport dogs, working dogs, and other animals with special needs. My personal dogs are elderly now and need more special care and I conduct all of it. I do drop ins, dog walking, and house sitting by myself but for boarding dogs me and my mom do that together (we are Angie’s pet care) that way our boarding dogs are with at least one person 24/7. I have a well fenced in yard and basement entirely dedicated to dogs! You can look us up at Angie’s pet care (Middleboro Mass). But our boarding dogs are allowed to be on the other floors with us (only when supervised) but someone is home majority of the day.

“Monica was absolutely amazing with Bruno! This was our first time leaving our puppy, so we were definitely a little nervous, but Monica made the whole experience so much easier. She gave us great suggestions to help Bruno feel comfortable and took such wonderful care of him. She kept us updated throughout his stay with lots of pictures and videos, which gave us so much peace of mind. We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter and would definitely recommend Monica to anyone looking for someone who will treat their pup like family!”

Josie M.

“Anna is amazing. She kept my dog Oliver for 7 days. I received updates with great pictures. Oliver looked great when I picked him up. I could tell he was very well taken care of. Her home is so dog friendly and the dogs that were there were perfect company for Oliver. She will definitely be Oliver’s go to sitter going forward.”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since a very young age I love all different kinds of dogs and cats. I have a nice set up in my home and I have a fenced in yard so it feels a lot safer and private :) I have a quiet neighborhood and lots of places to walk ! I always provide lots of photos and constant communication with pet owners. I also helped my mom board dogs growing up so I also have experience in that as well. I’m currently in school and have mostly online classes so I’m pretty flexible. I also have a car that I can transport if need be. I love walking them and letting them play outside in the fenced yard! I have a dog proofed home:) I’m open to all requests, more communication the better !

“Cheyenne was great! She sent us a ton of pictures of her and our dog having the time of their lives. I was afraid she wouldn’t want to come home! Highly recommend!”

“Tara is the best! We know our Frenchie has the best time when he’s with her. She is so kind, accommodating and communicative. Thank you for taking such great care of Oscar once again, Tara!”

About: My husband and I both grew up with dogs and had the privilege of fostering several dogs while living in Rwanda for 2 years. This past May, we unexpectedly lost our beloved 11-year-old dog. She was so much more than a pet—she was truly a member of our family and had grown up alongside our children, ages 9 and 6. We’re not quite ready to fill the space she left behind, so we thought Rover might be a wonderful way to spend time with dogs again while giving another family peace of mind knowing their dog is being cared for and loved. Your dog is allowed on our furniture and has access to a large fenced in yard! Our dog was fear aggressive and we were unable to utilize a boarding facility. We can sympathize that leaving your dog can be difficult. We’ll treat them like one of our own—with lots of affection, patience, attention, playtime, and plenty of cuddles. Having fostered dogs with very different personalities and backgrounds, we know that every dog has their own needs, quirks, and way of showing love. We’d love to welcome your dog into our home and give them the same love and care we’ve always given our own. Note: For the comfort and safety of your pup, we only care for dogs from one family at a time. We’re happy to accommodate two dogs from the same family, but we do not mix dogs from different households during the same stay. I work in healthcare on Mondays and Wednesdays from 12:30 PM–11:00 PM, and Saturdays I work a 12 hour shift and am home all other days. On the days I work, my husband is home by 2:30 PM, and he is home with our children on Saturdays. Our family does have occasional evening or weekend commitments for our children’s sports, but these are typically short outings, and we are rarely away from home for more than about four hours at a time. We’re happy to work with you to make sure your dog’s routine and needs fit comfortably into our schedule. Because I have a flexible schedule the majority of the week, I’m able to provide plenty of attention, companionship, walks, playtime, and breaks throughout the day. I’m also happy to accommodate a dog who needs more frequent potty breaks or simply prefers not to be alone for long periods (we've been there). We have a large fenced in yard where your dog can run to their heart's content. We live in a quiet, safe neighborhood and have the perfect mile walking loop. Your dog is welcome to sleep in our bed, lounge on the couch and take a snooze on our deck.
