Dog Boarding in Piedmont Avenue, Oakland

“Jeff and Beth are the best! They kept me updated all the time about my dog’s adventures and were kind enough to make sure Shiryu was always comfortable. Great experience. Peace of mind while I’m traveling. Would definitely like to take Shiryu back next time!”

“In Hanna, you’ll find a true dog lover who is intuitive, loving and thoughtful about the care she provides. I have a quirky and anxious pup and Hanna treated her like a queen throughout her 10 day stay. I appreciated all the comms and photos from their daily hikes. Thank you Hanna, I will recommend you to all my friends!”

“We have a big rescue dog, Lupin, who is nervous around new people and leash reactive/frustrated because he wants to play with every dog he sees, and Karen was fantastic with him. It was very clear at our meet and greet at the park that she knew how to deal with such issues, and knew a lot about dogs and their behavoir. We did a one night trial run to get lupin used to them for longer boarding and they were very kind to him - we have already booked 2 more trips. At our meet and greet, her lovely pup was a marvelous calming influence on our 2 yr old.”

“Pablo for the win! Our dog received many snuggles and it was obvious he was very well taken care of. He kept us updated with photos and we had absolutely no worries while we were away. Thank you to Pablo and his wife for providing top-notch care. We appreciate the great communication and flexibility as well.”

“Karen is a super caring dog parent. I see her regularly at the dog park and its obvious she really loves dogs and takes good care of them.”

“This was Rex’s second stay with Mary and Murphy Brown and we couldn’t be happier! Mary is so great and patient with Rex! As a super senior he is on multiple meds and needs potty breaks quite frequently, and Mary jumped right in without skipping a beat. She was in constant communication and shared tons of photos to give me peace of mind during my trip! Rex will be back again next month!”

“Kelly is a wonderful caretaker — she is super communicative and really cares about the well being of your pet. My cat is particularly shy and doesn’t like most people right off the bat; he was comfortable with her in a way I have not seen him be with strangers in very very few instances over 5 years. She’s also super diligent and makes sure your pet will have everything they need for their stay from both ends, every T is crossed and every I dotted. This was my first time using rover and it couldn't have been a better experience. Thank you so much Kelly!”

“Robert and Brian went above and beyond when they took care of my dog last weekend! They are reliable, experienced, caring, and I would highly recommend them. My 70lb dog, who can be quite shy around new people, quickly warmed up to them during the meet & greet, which is a testament to their patience and experience with shy dogs. They also took time to answer all my questions and show me around where the dog would stay/the yard during the meet and greet. Throughout the weekend I received regular updates, including photos and videos, which really put my mind at ease. Robert and Brian took my dog on long walks, spent time playing tug, and even designed enrichment activities like painting for my dog. My dog returned happy and healthy. I am grateful to Robert and Brian for their care and would board my dog with them again.”

“I wasn’t sure if my dog Toby would want to come home because I could tell he was having the time of his life all weekend long. I look forward to Toby spending more time at Lee’s home again soon!”

“Danielle treated our dog to more TLC and walks than we do ourselves, to be honest. Snowy loved her and she was a pleasure to work with. 5 paws up 🐕”

“Thank you Paula for giving Porky such a great time!!! Porky made so many friends and looked so happy everyday! He told me you’re officially his second mom now. And he can’t wait to come back to spend more time with you🔥😍”

“Donald took great care of our lab, Joey. We received plenty of photos and videos which put us at ease while we traveled. He was kind, communicative and a really nice guy. We will book with Donald again soon. He is a rock star!”

“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!”

“We needed someone to watch our 5 month old pup fairly last minute, and for 7 days. They were wonderful. They asked all the right questions up front, sent daily photos, videos, and little updates. It was very low stress for us and we didn’t have any worries, which was so great ❤️ When another pup chewed through Pennys leash, they even replaced it and bought us the same one! Penny seemed very calm and happy when we picked her up. We met Jake at drop off and pickup and he was so kind. Very thankful for them, and will be a repeat customer.”

“Tiffany and Lauren are absolutely wonderful caregivers to our pets. They have done both in-home care/housesitting as well as hosted our animals at their house - two pit mixes and two cats. I know that L&T will absolutely shower them with love and send us updates throughout the stay (including very sweet photos). They have cared for our animals at different life stages and are happy to adjust to the animal's specific needs, whether it is taking an energetic pup on a long walk or accommodating any physical limitations, including caring for our dog with significant mobility challenges. Their dog, Guapa, has always gotten along well with our dogs, and their cats are very comfortable around a variety of dogs since they have also hosted foster dogs in addition to petsitting. I feel very confident in the care that Tiffany and Lauren provide for our animals!”

“The hype about Sara is 10000% true!!! I left my baby boy with her for 2 weeks after only having him for 2 months, and though I missed him, I never had a moment of worry because I knew he was in the very best of hands (and paws) with her and Soba!! Sara kept me updated very regularly and sent me such wonderful photos. She's a super transparent and effective communicator, and obviously has a special touch with dogs. My pup had so much fun playing, adventuring, cuddling and relaxing with her! She really went above and beyond in terms of being so attentive, working with his training, and making sure he had a super enriching time while I was away. I'm so grateful that she took the best care of him. As long as Sara's available I will never consider another sitter!”

“Mariola is a lifesaver!!! We had to find a sitter for our senior chihuahua and we couldn’t have found anyone better than Mariola!! Our dog found comfort with Mariola and friends staying at her place. With photo updates we knew Dolly was doing well but could tell she would be in amazing hands as soon as we met Mariola. Her caring and loving spirit is easy to feel as soon as you meet her. Will be using her again without a doubt!!”

“Kaitlyn is super wonderful and it’s always a positive experience. She’s easy to coordinate with and sends lots of updates. I'm always hesitant to leave my baby anyone but the day she spent with Kaitlyn was perfect. She took care of ALL of her needs and sent me tons of photos and videos. She’s the best!! 💗”

“Michelle was great. our dog Beni had lots of play friends through out the weekend to keep her entertained. Michelle was very confident and seemed to know the ins and outs of dogs and dog training. She asked questions about Beni beforehand and offered a meet and greet. We required a bit of flexibility with our timing and Michelle was responsive and open to the change. Would definitely recommend her!”

“This was such a great boarding experience! My pup is elderly and requires some patience and attention, and they were so kind and thoughtful with her. She got a bit sick on the first day and they let me know right away and were happy to make changes to her routine to work with it. I got consistent updates with pictures and felt totally certain that my dog was well cared for the entire time. Definitely one of the best dogsitters I've used through this site.”
