Dog Boarding in South Stonehurst, Oakland

“Lucia (my pup) and I love Charlene! So much so that she jumps out of my car, races up to Charlene’s gate, then immediately runs into Charlene’s house. Lucia is always treated like family and well taken care of.”

About: I grew up with dogs all my life and can’t express how much I love having and taking care of them. I’ve had two Chihuahuas for 8 years and 18 years, Siberian Husky for 13 years and recently German/Australian Shepards for 14 years. My husband and I had a household full of love with our dogs. Our German Shepards both recently passed last year and it was tough. What helped us cope and go about our day was our newly adopted 3 year old pup. He is a Yorkie/Chihuahua and just the sweetest boy! We’re so happy he’s in our lives. We can’t wait to love and treat your pet like a part of our family! I am home everyday and have the time to take care and play with your dog. We live across from a park, which is convenient for multiple walks and not too far from the main local dog park at the Marina. We often take walks around the neighborhood as well. Our 3 year old pup enjoys all the walk time he gets and I’m sure your dog will too. We also have a fenced yard and supervise all dogs that want to play in the yard. We allow your dog to sit on our couch or dog cot as we want them to feel cozy and at home.

“Zo is godsend! I would not know what do if it were not her, I would absolutely book again! She took in our very shy and timid cat, our precious baby girl when everybody rejected her and on short notice. She absolutely cared for our cat like a child and was communicative on photos, daily activities, and behaviors. Thank you so much!”

“Chad was great with our pups. It's such a relief to find a good sitter and Chad is one of those people! He has a great place with a big backyard and nice house for the dogs to romp around in. He was very communicative both during our meet and greet as well as during their first stay with him. One of our dogs is a bit skittish with people but warmed right up to Chad, which is a testament to him and his ability to make her feel at ease. We already have another date on the calendar with him. Highly recommended.”

“Our Miss Lexie had a wonderful stay. Chawntea treated our baby girl like family. She made new furry friends, which helps her socialization skills. Chawntea was so flexible with our ever-changing travel plans. Shout out to Southwest. She sent updates and pics while we were away, which brought smiles to our faces. Without a doubt, we will be using her services in the future.”

“Ogechi took amazing care of my big girl, is very communicative and sent constant updates. My pup had an amazing time and would highly recommend!”

“Megan is such a great dog sitter for our aging pup! Excellent communication, abundant updates and pictures —- would give more stars if I could!”

“If you’re thinking of booking your dog’s stay with Mari, just do it! Mari was great with Enzo and took very good care of him during his one week stay. Mari is very kind and patient. She sent lovely photos and videos everyday of Enzo going on walks with Franccesco, of him playing with toys and/or just hanging out with other doggie friends. Mari also kept me updated of how he was doing throughout his stay and gave some recommendations to help Enzo out with his bowel movement. I would definitely book again!”

“First time I used Rover and it definitely was a hit! I found Sarah and when I talked to her I felt at ease and knew she was the person to take care of my babies, she took in my cats for 3 weeks when it was originally suppose to be 2. She had no problem working with me and was very flexible when I extended with her. She sent me updates and photos almost every day to show me how my cats were. When I initially booked it was last minute, and I couldn’t appreciate Sarah for being patient and understanding. We worked together on drop and pick up times and also allowed for a late checkout when I picked up my babies which was definitely easier for both of us I would say. She was able to grab certain foods and litter my cats like and use without no problem. To end it all, my cats looked happy when I picked them up, no signs of them looking sad or hurt. Like I said I felt at ease when I first talked to her and she will deff be my go back cat sitter when needed in the future. Thank you Sarah ?”

“Brittany was so sweet and calm and my dog responded so well to that! She took wonderful care of her and sent great updates. I look forward to her watching my pup again!”

“First time using Rover, and Branda was great. She kept us updated on how our dog was doing, sending pictures throughout our stay. She was professional, ontime, and cared very much about our pet. We would certainly use her again.”

“Allie and Travis were so kind to my sensitive dog. Allie gave a lot of updates on my pup and was super flexible with drop off/pick ups. She is a true animal lover, and she has a beautiful backyard full of plants and veggies. I’d recommend them to friends & family!”

“Lilian was great with our dogs. Lots of pictures of the daily walks and play time. One of them had so much fun he didn’t want to leave. Would definitely use again!”

“Truly not enough good things to say about Ethan and our experience with him caring for our dog, Taco. From the beginning, Ethan was super responsive and easy to communicate with him. We right away felt at ease leaving our dog with Ethan and it just worked out perfectly. Every day, Ethan sent us videos and pictures, and it was clear he was loving on our dog as much as he does his own. I’m usually a worry wart when it comes to leaving my dog with anyone. Not this time. And Taco even came home smelling fresh, Ethan bathed him before pickup! More importantly, Taco was a happy pup.”

“Natalia was awesome! She was communicative, sent lots of pictures and videos, and was overall splendid. I have a semi-anxious puppers and she updated me on bathroom, eating, and fireworks throughout her stay. I will 1000% recommend Natalia to anyone looking for someone who truly cares about watching your fur baby.”

“She was a very gentle and caring person. My doggies were very well taken care of and I loved that she let them play outside and sun bathe. I have older dogs and need extra live and she did just that. I couldn’t be any happier with my experience with Dora.”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was 5 years old! From our first Doberman to my cute little chihuahua, Queenie who I have the pleasure of being her sweet mama, I truly love pets and caring for them too, I’m currently working part-time and have the flexibility to create my pet care schedule so I’m here and happy to help you anytime you need. I have a huge 1 bedroom apartment with a fenced patio and I live in a secure, safe and dog friendly community. I can also crate as well and also stay in your home.

“I was confident my pup Oliver was in great hands with Diana. It’s obvious she cares about animals and loves pet sitting. I loved getting text updates during his stay and It was also so nice of her to buy Oliver a dog bed!”

“Nicole took such good care of my Alby! We had a meet and greet ahead of time to ensure a comfortable stay. She sent several pictures and videos daily while I was gone so I had no worries, and it was obvious he was having a blast! Couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. I will definitely use Nicole’s services again in the future.”

“Lauren was wonderful—friendly, constantly in communication with us, and took excellent care of our dog. We will be using her again and highly recommend her services!”
