Dog Boarding School

“After moving to Alameda, we feel so incredibly lucky to have found Megan and Jenny to care for our 12-year-old golden retriever. We had a big family event involving multiple nights away, and were so concerned about finding a great person to leave her with. Belle's stay went flawlessly and we so appreciated receiving updates. Belle was treated like a princess and came home so happy!!”

“Alexandra was great at communicating and following instructions we left for our pup. We got daily updates and she answered any and all questions quickly and with care. Would definitely re-book!”

“I found myself in a bit of a bind. My partner was going into a last minute surgery and we needed to find someone to take care of our dog on short notice. I reached out to Dvora and almost immediately heard back. I appreciated Dvora's request to have my dog come by her house and hang out for an hour just to see how she reacted to other dogs and to Dvora's home. Thankfully my dog seemed to adapt well and we confirmed boarding for 3 nights. Over the next few days I got regular updates and even a couple photos which really helped ease my mind that my dog was well taken care of. My partner's surgery went well but we had to stay in the hospital an extra night. Dvora was able to accommodate boarding our dog one more night. Overall, I really appreciate how thoughtful Dvora was in the care of our dog. She really understands the behavioral pattern of dogs. She has a nice backyard which I appreciate because my dog had the space to run around and play. My dog even got along super well with a different dog Dvora was taking care of. What a great experience and would highly recommend Dvora for your boarding needs.”

“Shannon was great at taking care of Roo during my trip. She was responsive, flexible with pick-up and drop-off times—which was helpful after some last-minute work meetings—sent adorable photos and videos, and made sure everything was okay. Roo had a wonderful time in her beautiful backyard during his stay.”

“VJ & Matthew took care of our senior dog with minor medical issues and communicated plenty of updates and medicated her. They were available for easy pick-up and drop-off.”

Norah M.

“Spunky did a trial overnight stay and Joann was super sweet and welcoming! I got regular updates, photos, and could tell that my dog was truly comfortable and well cared for.”

Lainy M.

“Paule took such great care of my senior dog Brutus. He is 15 years old and can be a bit needy so I’m usually nervous leaving him but she made him so comfortable and made me feel at ease. Highly recommended Paule to anyone.”

“My 2 dogs did a trial daycare day with Nancy and after a really positive experience we booked with her for 2 nights of boarding and she was very communicative and our pups had a fantastic time! They came back with wagging tails and in great spirits after making some new dog friends and being well cared for. I would highly recommend her services to anyone!”

“Hikaru & John took amazing care of my fur baby. They asked for all his needs and give him ton of attention. They took him for walks and a hike so he can get his energy out. Appreciate them! And their care for my sweet fur baby. Highly recommend them.”

“Mary is absolutely incredible. Our dog, Finn, is a quirky senior who is often slow to trust strangers - within 24 hours of being with Mary, he was asking her for pets and cuddles! That tells you all you need to know. She was extremely communicative, sent us lots of cute pictures and overall left us so at ease knowing our little guy was cared for. Can’t recommend her enough!”

Luana P.

“Kari and Craig took wonderful care of our big boy! He made himself right at home the moment he arrived and was a happy camper when picked up. Highly recommend!”

Cherie H.

“Kim and her partner were amazing dog sitters! They sent timely, proactive updates and made sure my pup was well acclimated with their dogs. Would definitely recommend!”

Blake P.

“This is my second time booking with Areyona. She is a great communicator, I feel very comfortable leaving my dog with her. She takes great care of her.”

James L.

“Diana was able to take my reservation as a new client on very short notice. A contractor needed an additional day at my home to complete work. Diana was immediately warm and easy. She provided regular updates and photos/video during the stay and responded promptly to messages. I would not hesitate to recommend her to other dog parents and look forward to Jagger’s next stay.”

“Ruthy is a fantastic find! This was our first time using Rover.com and we really lucked out in finding someone as knowledgeable, responsible, and passionate about dogs as Ruthy. Our dog is a newly adopted large-breed dog with a lot of energy as well as separation anxiety. There are not a lot of sitters that would be able to handle our guy! From the moment we met Ruthy at the meet-and-greet we could tell that she took her job very seriously and knew how to be a responsible dog owner and caretaker. We've used Ruthy once for doggy daycare and once for boarding, and we are going to keep using her again because we could not imagine there being anyone better to care for our pup. We also loved all the pictures and videos of our dog enjoying his stay while we were out of town (it actually made us worry that he had forgotten about us)! We would highly recommend Ruthy to anyone who wants to leave their dog with someone who not only knows how to handle dogs, but who truly cares about them.”

“Tamara could not have been a better host for Hiero, going above and beyond through the whole process. She was incredibly thoughtful in taking care of him through his stay, gave him some fun friends to play with, frequently updated us with pics and videos, and even picked him up since we had already left for vacation at the start of his stay. I can’t say enough good things about how amazing she was. All the stars.”

David & Nyasha A.

“Great communication - we received lots of pictures and videos throughout our trip. We have two dogs with completely different temperaments and needs, and both were clearly well cared for. Thank you!”

Julie B.

“Albina was great with Doug. She kept me updated with messages and photos, which I appreciated. Doug seemed happy and well-cared for when I picked him up. Would definitely book with her again.”

Derek W.

“Angela was awesome with Maple. She gave daily updates and made sure that my very active dog was able to get her energy out every day. Would highly recommend/rebook in the future!”

Jordan P.

“Dacyl did such a good job with our shy dog. We went away for a 3 week trip and received daily updates and pictures of the fun things they did. Our dog came out of her shell and loved spending time with Dacyl and her dog Stan. Dacyl was also really fast with responding to messages which helped make pickup/drop off easy. We came back to a happy healthy dog and would definitely board our dog with Dacyl again!”
