Pet Boarding Pleasant Hill

“I felt completely comfortable with Aubry watching my dogs, she sent wonderful pictures of them throughout their visit. I will definitely be sure to use her in the future. I am so glad I found her! Max and Fez loved her too!”

“Nathan had a blast! Because normally he gets scared going with strangers but the second day he didn’t even bother to look back. They are amazing with Nathan and great with communicating about him as well.”

About: What sets me apart as a sitter is my strong experience working with dogs and puppies of all sizes, breeds, and energy levels. I’ve been caring for animals since I was young, starting with pets belonging to family and friends, which helped me build a solid foundation of hands-on experience with dogs in everyday home environments. I’m especially comfortable with puppies and understand the patience and consistency they need while learning routines like potty training, crate training, leash walking, and basic commands. I also enjoy helping reinforce positive behaviors through structure, repetition, and lots of encouragement. For adult dogs, I adapt easily to their personality—whether they are high-energy and need plenty of exercise or more relaxed and prefer a calm routine. I also have experience with senior dogs who may need a slower pace, medication reminders, and extra attention to comfort and mobility. I pay close attention to each dog’s individual needs, including feeding schedules, exercise requirements, and behavioral cues, so they feel secure and understood while in my care. My goal is always to create a safe, trusting environment where dogs feel comfortable, loved, and well cared for. I also provide regular updates, photos, and communication so you always know how your pet is doing while you’re away. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine, especially with my availability in the afternoons and evenings. Since I work part time, I have ample time during the day to give pets the attention, exercise, and care they need. I enjoy spending my evenings going on walks, which would make it easy and consistent for me to provide daily exercise and outdoor time. I also look forward to using my free time for play, feeding, and bonding activities that help build trust and comfort with pets. In my home or a client’s home, I provide pet care with consistency, attentiveness, and respect for the animal’s routine and comfort level. I follow all care instructions closely, including feeding schedules, portion sizes, medication instructions if needed, and any specific preferences the owner provides. I make sure pets always have fresh water, regular meals, and a clean, safe environment. I prioritize daily exercise and enrichment through walks, playtime, and interaction suited to the pet’s age, energy level, and personality. I also focus on building trust through calm, patient handling and positive attention. In a client’s home, I am mindful of maintaining the space exactly as instructed, keeping things clean and secure, and making sure the pet feels comfortable in their familiar environment. I understand the importance of routine, so I do my best to keep things as normal and stress-free as possible for the pet while their owner is away. Overall, my approach is to care for each pet as if they were my own—providing reliable, loving, and responsible care tailored to their individual needs

“I have a 12 yo German Shepard. He's an old man now. We were going away for New Years and our normal sitter wasn't available. I was apprehensive about leaving him with someone new. Karin was spectacular. She was attentive to his needs and careful about his 'age' related shortcomings. She has a pup of her own and a young son who loved my boy. Karin sent plenty of pics of him and was very communicative during his stay, asking questions to make sure behaviors were normal and making sure he'd tolerate the environment there! I don't know how many stays my old man has left in him, but Karin is definitely the person I'd want watching him when I leave!”

“Karen was great with our dog! The Dude has a lot of anxiety and she was very good with him and she also sent lots of pictures and updates. Will definitely use her again.”

Victoria A.

“Lashonna is fantastic. A great meet-and-greet, very accommodating on pick up and drop off, great communication, and most importantly our dog seems very happy with the stay.”

Simeon E.

“Ms Amber has a loving and friendly doggo home, and is a great communicator & coordinator. I can't say enough about the experience. Will definitely request future stays!”

Buckeye W.

“We feel Tara was well taken care of by Emily. Will definitely use her again!! Love the fact she has a fenced in yard with plenty of room for a dog to run. We also appreciated that for the meet & greet she had us come to where our dog was going to be staying and not some park. Emily was great with us as well. Friendly & pleasant.”

“Angel was great to work with. She made our dog feel right at home. Angel gives you an update daily on how your pet is doing and includes pictures!! Would highly recommend her to anyone!!”

Jessica H.

“My dog had an amazing time with Gregory and his family! Not only did he take excellent care of my dog, he help me with some issues I was having with some of his puppy behavior! I would give more stars if I could.”

Henry S.

“Cerah and her family were excellent with our senior dog who doesn’t hear or see well anymore. She is extremely understanding of his needs and had very clear communication with us before and during the stay. We were very happy with our dog’s 2 week stay and hope to use her again!”

Meg T.

“Kristen did an excellent job, and I highly recommend her. I was a little hesitant at first because of the pricing, but once I realized what was included, it made complete sense. Her setup is on a large piece of land that has clearly been customized specifically for pets. There are multiple fenced-in areas where dogs can safely run freely, and it gave me a lot of peace knowing my dog had space, structure, and proper care. Her communication could not have been better. Every time I texted her, she responded within minutes and fully addressed whatever concern I had. I also noticed a real difference in my dog after coming home. Before the stay, my dog would just come up to me and act excited when she needed to go outside. Now she actually cries to be let out, which is much easier to understand. She also seems to pull a lot less when I take her outside, so it honestly feels like some obedience training happened during the stay too. The kennel is climate controlled, the property is very well set up, and Kristen clearly cares about the dogs she watches. She even gave my dog special treats like pup cups with peanut butter and whipped cream. I was honestly worried my dog might not want to come home. If you want to leave your dog somewhere and not have to worry the whole time, this is the place.”

“Jeanie was wonderful with our cockapoo Lily, who has a lot of anxiety, when she took care of her for 4 days. Jeanie even did her errands ahead of time so she wouldn't have to leave Lily alone. She went beyond the call of duty! Thank you so much Jeanie!”

Julia W.

“Claudia watched Junior while I was on a vacation overseas. He got along so well with her and her fur baby that I had no concerns while I was away. She sent tons of pics letting me know he was having a good time. Lastly, I had some issues that affected my pick up time & she was very understanding of the situation. Highly recommend & I would book future stays with Claudia.”

Gissele H.

“Olive received the best care! Tara sent pictures every day. Olive was spoiled with treats, walks and love! I would definitely bring her back!”

Jill M.

“She took great care of buddy and taught him a bunch of new commands that have really come in handy! I would recommend to a friend looking for someone to watch/train their dog!”

Josh W.

“Michelle was great! She made my husband and I comfortable when we left our dog with her when we had to go out of town. Spartacus made a few new friends and she sent us a few pictures during his stay. I'd recommend Michelle to everyone!”

Ashley C.

“Elya was by far the best dog sitter we’ve found on Rover. She was so intentional to spend time with our dog, taking her on walks and giving her a bath during her stay. It felt like we were dropping our dog off at a friends’ house rather than just a boarding place. Easily 5 stars!!!”

Audrey M.

“Vicki took great care of our Shih Tzu while we were on vacation. He is a rescue and can be nervous in new situations. She was as patient and loving with our dog and sent us frequent updates that eased our anxiety about leaving him behind.”

Woollybear

“What a wonderful couple. Didn’t worry about Nyla one bit. Gave me updates throughout the stay. Definitely will rebook with them when needed. Highly recommended.”
