Doggy Day Care in Orinda

“Excellent care ! Chad is very friendly and knowledgeable. He has a big house with a huge backyard. When I arrived for pick up, my dog was sleeping on the couch. Comfortable and safe. Thank you.”

“Eiko is a great dog caregiver. She kept me informed with how Hinahina was doing so I don’t worry any bit. Drop off and pickup were both smooth. She also offered “meet and greet” before the day of daycare so we were both comfortable. Highly recommended!”

“Jessica is super responsive and took great care of our dog Birdie! She sent lots of pictures and we could tell Birdie had a fun time with the other dogs and tired herself out”

“Tosca has taken such good care of our puppy Waffles! We are very very happy to have found her. She was able to give him the meds he needed after his neutering surgery, and accommodate changes in our schedule. It’s clear Tosca loves dogs and Waffles loves her. She is excellent with communication, provides status updates, and photos. We will definitely be using her services in the future!”

“Phoebe had a great time with Elery and Daniel! She came home happy and calm. Will be requesting their services again.”

“Emerson was super accommodating of a very last-minute dogsitting request and a late pick up. We are so grateful we found him, he seemed to be excellent with dogs. It was a great socialization experience for our young puppy since she got to meet a couple of other dogs he was boarding that day too.”

“Francesca and her husband are absolutely incredible - definitely dog whisperers. We needed someone to watch our dog Pebble over the holidays and Francesca came to the rescue. You can tell how much they truly love and adore dogs just from the initial conversation. When we went for a visit our dog felt right at home as their house is basically specifically designed with dogs in mind. She also walked through all of Pebble’s preferences in long detail before we set up the dog sitting officially. It’s clear she has A LOT of experience with dogs - annd importantly, just truly loves them. For the week we were gone, Pebble got so much activity, attention, and love that she didn’t want to come home! They took pebble on multiple long walks everyday, figured out her likes/dislikes in terms of play, and showered her with love. Francesca kept me in the loop the entire time and ensured Pebble was comfortable at all times. They also make sure not to take too many dogs at one time and do everything to make the dogs are happy. I will most certainly be leaving Pebble with Francesca again. We feel so lucky to have found such an incredible place for our dog.”

“Let me tell you, Winne's a rockstar when it comes to looking after her pup, Bella. Seriously, Bella's like the poster child for well-behaved dogs, and Winne deserves all the credit for that. She's trained Bella herself, and you can see the love and effort she's put into it. It's clear Winne's got the magic touch when it comes to raising a happy and obedient pooch like Bella.”

“Kelly has been a great caregiver for our dog, Cali! We have been using Kelly twice a week for the last few weeks and hope to continue. Our dog is super excited to be dropped off there. Our active puppy gets lots of love and attention, playtime and walks and comes home all tuckered out. Kelly is also very responsive to messages and flexible when we have had schedule changes. I strongly recommend Kelly!”

“What a treat for my dog Luna! Such an amazing property for the dogs to hang out. Mara is a sweet friend for Luna. Jeff and his wife were super responsive and kind. Best rover experience yet!”

“I have never met anyone who loves animals as much as Ida does. She has cared for dogs, cats, bunnies, mice & hamsters, and even fish & turtles. For her, caring for pets is not a job, but a passion that she truly enjoys. Your pets will be in great hands!”

“Melissa was an amazing sitter for our pup and went above and beyond to ensure that she had a positive experience. Melissa is super kind, very attentive, and very communicative. Our experience with doggy daycare with Melissa was great, starting with Melissa’s willingness for a brief introduction prior to leaving our dog for a few hours. Our pup has some separation anxiety, and Melissa made sure to spend time engaging with her and making her feel comfortable in her home. Melissa also made super cute videos of our pup’s stay and kept us updated with their well being throughout the stay. We couldn’t recommend Melissa (and her daughter) enough, and look forward to booking with them again in the future. Thanks again!”

“Alireza took great care of our 3 month old energetic puppy. Highly recommended”

“Margaret is a great cat mom and dog aunt! I would trust her with my pup Cooper for any amount of time. She is responsible, caring, and kind to all animals and humans. She will treat your fur babies like her own!”

“Ulunma and her husband are fantastic, so nice flexible and my Beauregard loves coming for visits. I highly recommend them and will continue to use them. Beauregard loves visiting, and is super happy every time I drop him off!!”

“It’s always hard for me to leave Lulu when I have to go on a trip but having Valerie to be so mindful and loving present with lulu has made me feel safe and content that lulu is in the best of hands. I will always be requesting Valerie!”

“Flannery was amazing!! It’s so hard to get someone with our schedule as most daycares open after 8AM. She was super flexible! She also asked for permission for certain things like taking him in her car before a walk, which I appreciated even though it was totally okay. Communicated super well with me when I asked her how remi was doing and had a bunch of pictures of my boy having a great time! I can tell she’s responsible and loving towards remi and she has my full trust. Finding a good sitter has been tough, but she was great and remi seemed safe. I’d definitely book her again, and is 100% recommended.”

About: Hi! I’m a stay-at-home mom, whose pack includes three dog-savvy kids, a supportive partner, and a good-natured dog, named Pup. We’d love to be your dog’s extended pack, and spoil them like family while you’re away. I love all dogs, but specialize in active/working dogs. I have experience raising our own dog, as well as hosting our friends’ and families’ dogs. I’ve also taken puppy and obedience training classes and use positive reinforcement techniques. There’s nothing I love more than getting outside with my pack (dogs included of course!) Being at home full time means I’ve got lots of time to care for your pup. I’m available for drop in care, weekday walks, and overnight boarding (provided your dog is both dog and kid-friendly). We have a fenced yard with a sunny deck and space to roam. Dogs are welcome inside as well, although not on the furniture. You can expect good communication and photo updates from me throughout their stay.

“Fabio & Charlie are AMAZING! Our dogs had the best time together. Fabio and Charlie kept us updated throughout the day with adorable pictures. They were really attentive to our dogs needs, and she warmed right up to them even though she can often be shy around new people. Highly recommend!!”

“My furbaby Jada loves Niki, her husband, & her dog Booster. She gets so excited now when she knows she gets to spend the day with them. Since I started my new job, me & my boyfriend are gone from home around the same time for over 10 hours. It feels great to know that I have someone like Niki to watch her for us!”
