Doggy Day Care in Piedmont Avenue, Oakland, CA

“Lee did a great job with my dog Riley. They were flexible about the start time for daycare and sent pictures to update me. Riley had a really good time sitting out back in the sunshine, and was happy and relaxed when I picked him up.”

“Danielle took great care of my dog! Usually my dog is very sad when I leave but she was running to meet Danielle and to get inside. She played all day with Danielle’s dog and they became fast friends. I loved all the photos and updates I received throughout the day! My dog was in safe hands, I couldn’t recommend Danielle more! I will definitely have her babysit again”

About: I’m a Fear Free Certified Professional, currently studying animal behavior. I’ve been running my own home based doggy daycare and boarding house for four years. My care is crate-free (unless that's what your pup's preferred at-home routine is,) with regular group outings to trails and the beach. I live in a two level home where the entire downstairs and fenced backyard are just for the dogs! It’s colorfully set up as the coolest doggie social club, but the pups are welcome throughout both levels of the home. They are never forcibly isolated and almost always prefer to be close to wherever I am. I keep my client list small and personal—almost all of my dogs have been with me for years. I don’t aim to pack the house; I aim to give the best experience possible for every dog and human involved. Even when clients start as one-offs, they usually stick around—because I strive to be a resource for dogs and their families. That’s why I call this place a home away from home. If you're interested, I invite you to come by for a meet and greet—see the space, meet me, and let me meet your little one. I look forward to being your dog’s new best friend! Canine care is my daily life. The dogs are with me throughout the day—whether we’re in the yard, around the house, or out on a trail. I structure my routine around their needs, with group outings, downtime, and a consistent rhythm. If my personal life calls me away, I have an amazing assistant Alaina who steps in. She also co-runs the daycare! I focus on keeping things consistent, calm, fun, and full of bonding—play, rest, outdoor time, and enrichment are all part of the daily rhythm. Outside of daycare hours, the space functions as our home too, so dogs experience a relaxed, real-life environment, not a facility. I send updates, pictures, and videos throughout the day.

“Tara took good care of our pet Mimi. She carried Mimi up and down the stairs to avoid any difficulties. Mimi was happy and energetic when she got home.”

“Schatze loves Alexandra!!!! Between the walks on the lake, the pet friend she gets to play with, and all the love, my dog gets more and more excited each time i drop her off.”

About: I’ve been lucky to grow up surrounded by both dogs and cats, and I can’t remember a time when there wasn’t at least one furry friend in my home. My pup, Ray Charles, and I truly enjoy the company of dogs of all sizes and personalities and foster on the side as well. To make sure everyone is comfortable, I like to arrange a friendly meet-and-greet before we set anything in stone. I work remote and have a lot of flexibility of schedule. Ray Charles and I spend our days exploring the beautiful parks and trails of the East Bay—and we’d be thrilled to have your pup join us for some fun walks and fresh air! Ray and I live in a cozy but spacious one-bedroom with a backyard, perched at the top of a hill in a safe, peaceful neighborhood that’s perfect for walks and outdoor play.

“Finn had a great time with Vanessa. She’s very kind and easy to communicate with, and Finn appreciates her great yard. Finn had a great time with Vanessa’s dog Robin. We will definitely book again!”

About: I grew up with 3 dachshunds and pet sat for many years during college. I've also had 2 cats during college that have since passed away. I've worked a summer on a goat farm, fed chickens, and watched pet doves. I have a good presence with animals and people. I am a freelancer and am at home for the majority of the day. I can bring your dog with me to the park and running errands. Sometimes I'm out on client meetings here and there, but am always close to home. We are at the Vespr apartment building which are a dogs haven. Minutes from the lake for morning walks, with a built in doggy spa and run for evening potty breaks. Big windows with sunshine spots for sun soaking naps and filtered water for tasty sips.

“Latricia was great! My dog can be a bit difficult with new people, but Latricia was patient and understanding. She kept me updated with pictures throughout the day, too, so I had peace of mind.”

Stephanie V.

“Anchisa kept my dog Walter for doggy day care on my long work days. I am completely pleased and so happy we found her! From time of booking throughout his whole stay her communication is excellent with updates and pics! He is no longer nervous when I get ready for work since he knows he will be seeing her. I would trust her completely for boarding if I leave town as well. I am so grateful we found you!”

About: Passionate and reliable dog sitter with a deep love for animals and years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all breeds and sizes. Known for providing safe, attentive, and affectionate care, including walks, feeding, playtime, and administering medication if needed. Committed to keeping pets happy and owners worry-free with regular updates and personalized care. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine, as I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals. I schedule walks, feedings, and playtime consistently each day. Whether it's early morning walks, midday check-ins, or evening cuddles, I make sure each pet receives attention, love, and the care they need. My flexible schedule allows me to prioritize their well-being while maintaining a balanced, pet-friendly routine. I care for pets by creating a safe, clean, and comfortable environment, whether in my home or a client’s. At home, I provide a secure space with plenty of room to play, regular walks, fresh water, healthy meals, and lots of affection. In a client’s home, I follow their pet’s usual routine closely—feeding schedules, walking times, and any special instructions—to help the pet feel at ease. I also keep the home tidy, respect the space, and give regular updates with photos and messages for peace of mind.

“Maxwell is incredibly slow to trust people. The moment he met Mary at our meet & greet I could Tell she had a special energy (he even tried to follow her into her apartment after they met). After this stay, I am so confident she is going to be an excellent fit for my sweet pup. She spent time with him 1:1 upon arrival before bringing him up to meet her dog (making sure he got comfy), she took him on errands and walks and sent the sweetest photos of him meeting the neighbors, and she was flexible and dropped him off at our house when our plans got delayed. Very much looking forward to more stays with Mary!”

“Jessie is a great dog sitter! She is communicative, sent great picture updates and even took my energetic 1 yr old pup on a long hike to tire him out. I would definitely book with her again.”
