Doggy Day Care Shafter

“Chrystal was very receptive and understanding of the needs for my old husky girl. Actually, she confirmed that my dog was very sweet with people, mainly herself and her family. Crystal was able to work and stay with my dog as I mentioned was desirable as my dog has had separation issues. It looks like my dog was taken very good care of and I appreciate it.”

“If you're anything like me, the guilt of being away at work all day weighs on me, but knowing that instead, my fur-baby is now getting tons of attention, pets, walks, and love puts my mind at ease. Getting cuddles from Van Joseph and Matthew, the company of their sweet little dogs, and soft blankets to sleep in is priceless! I got so many precious photos which brightened my day! Overjoyed to have found Van Joseph and Matthew to care for my sweet girl Petunia!!”

“Chen Z. was amazing with my dog. He’s very easy to communicate with, very accommodating to different schedules, takes lots of beautiful pictures and videos, and sends frequent updates. Most importantly my dog was always so excited to see him. Would 100% recommend and book again.”

Monike O.

“Anchisa was amazing with my dog! Very communicative and willing to meet my dog’s needs. My dog arrived home happy and calm. Definitely recommend!”

Rosie S.

“Mary is super attentive and caring. She gave detailed updates about how she was doing and sent lots of photos in which Shanti looks happy and relaxed, enjoying the company of her fur baby, Murphy. When I arrived at her place to pick her up. she was already standing in front of her apartment building so that I didn't have to wait for her to come out. So Sweet! I'd definitely ask her to look after my dog again in a heartbeat!”

“Thank you for watching our sweet Porky pie. He had such a great time. We love that he gets to have play time with other dogs and so glad he got along so well with Nala. Loved all the great updates while away, it really made my heart happy to see he is well taken care of while we are away. Highly recommend to anyone needing a pet sitter. Amazing communication!!! And your pet will be well taken care of.”

“My dogs had such a great time they will for sure be going back!”

“We could not have asked for a better first Rover experience! Alisson was attentive to our dog's needs and made him feel welcome in her home - enough to fall asleep on her lap! She was very communicative and flexible and would definitely recommend for your doggy daycare needs”

“Madeleine was immensely helpful in accepting our last minute early morning booking for our timid dog. She was warm and welcoming and took the time to learn our dogs needs. Looking forward to rebooking in the future - thank you!!”

Natalie B.

“I highly recommend Nathalie. She took excellent care of our senior dog. She is friendly, easy to communicate with, and her place was very clean. Most importantly, it is very evident how much she loves dogs and other animals. We will be contacting her in the future when we need dog sitting again.”

About: I've taken care of animals since a young age. Everything from dogs, cats, to chickens and fish, and of course, the occasional wild pig ;) I have a frug, so pet care is a part of my everyday routine. Daily bathroom breaks, walks, playtime, and a trip to the dog park. I have a fenced yard and my dog loves to run around it. She gets along well with other dogs that I care for and I let them roam freely around my home.

About: I’ve had pets since I was young including caring for and owning small, medium, and large dogs. I appreciate the need for exercise and am happy to maintain any rules for your pet to keep consistency. I’m well versed in giving pets medicine, training puppies with voice, treats and eye contact. I currently have a 60lb dog that is strong and unreliable meeting dogs on leash so I am versed in managing larger dogs and boundaries needed in their care so they feel supported. (My dog is with me 50% time and I will only take in sitting jobs when she isn’t here). I also appreciate and care for cats though I have never owned one. I work full-time from home and a two bedroom apartment, and I’m available to board. I walk regularly and have my own dog 50% time. I will only board when I don’t have her. I can do fast walks, slow walks, and I have a car to take dogs to hikes if that is desired. I have an unfenced yard for quick potty breaks if needed, but prefer walking dogs on leash around the Elmwood neighborhood if they are staying with me. It’s good to get exercise! Also happy to walk them in your area if I’m just doing a house visit. I have a laundry room where I can close off any pet food storage if your pet is adventurous and gets into things. I like building trust and boundaries with dogs early so that they can feel secure. I also love playing with toys and keeping them in rotation whether that’s a Kong, pull toys, cat feathers or mice, etc.

“Maia is a great and very trustworthy dog sitter! My little senior dog had a great time with her and her dog, Shaka. Very trustworthy and took the dogs out for walks frequently :)”

Caroline L.

“We had a great first daycare with Nikolai! He is very responsive and easy to coordinate with. It was nice to know Jax was having a fun day with other dogs and nice people. Excited to go back again!!”

Kendall B.

“Claudio was amazing with Xico. Xico does not always get along with other dogs, but Claudio has the ability to ease any tension or fear Xico may feel around new dogs. Claudio went above and beyond to make Xico feel at home. They even went to Alameda beach! I know Xico felt safe and happy due to Claudio’s warm energy. I’m so happy Xico could socialize and have fun this week!”

Lee C.

“Latricia is a really kind person who has taken wonderful care of our dog during boarding and day care. He clearly loves seeing Latricia and hanging out with his dog buddies at her pad. And she sends us really adorable photos every time! We'll definitely continue using her services. Thanks Latricia!”

Hamilton J.

“Zoey had another great day with Alex! Thank you!”

Sarah Elizabeth R.

“Our furry old man loved the snuggles, scratches & pets so much that he didn't want to come home with us during pick up! Yeon is very sweet & friendly, responds very quickly to messages & kept us up to date with pictures. Thank you so much! 11/10 definitely would recommend!”

Rose R.

“Erlisa was very sweet and sent frequent photos and updates about our pup. She responds quickly to messages and is very caring toward animals.”

G S.

“Sarah was wonderful with Bijou! He is a well-behaved dog but has a ton of energy, and it was clear that Sarah understood his personality perfectly. You could easily tell from the pictures she shared that he was having a blast. She took him on a couple of walks, and he came home completely happy and tired out from all the fun. I highly recommend Sarah for doggy day care and will definitely use her services again!”
