Dog Boarding in University Avenue, Davis, CA

“Jiajie was amazing, she sent me photos and videos of Penny constantly reassuring me she was in great hands. She was attentive to Pennie’s needs with cuddles and walks. She did a great job at making sure Penny was comfortable as if she was one of her own pets.”

“Our pet was very happy with Jessica. Usually he stops eating when he is away but this time he ate and seemed so happy and relaxed. Jessica is very experienced and handled him very well. She also gave us regular updates and very responsive to any queries. We will definitely use her help next time.”

“Carla was amazing. Had a last minute wedding to attend-and did not worry at all. Carla updated us and made sure our pup felt the love. Good at communication, updates and following instructions with pup. Our dog is not leashed trained and her space allowed him to relax for a overnight trip with a fenced in patio! Def be back!”

“This was Bristol’s first overnight boarding, and Alayna went above and beyond to make the experience as smooth as possible. She met with us in person beforehand to ensure that Bristol and Jake could get to know each other, which made the transition much easier. Alayna is incredibly considerate and maintained clear, consistent communication throughout the entire process. Her warm and attentive approach gave us peace of mind and made Bristol’s stay truly comfortable.”

“Carey did a great job taking care of our dog, Alpha, for the first time. She made Alpha and I welcome from the time we first met her. She gave us lots of updates. The videos of our dog doing tricks was cute and she also sent pictures of the different routes they took for walking. She communicates very well. We will definitely use her again.”

About: Animals have been at the heart of my life for as long as I can remember. Raised on a farm and on a pre-vet track from a young age, I’ve spent decades caring for animals of all kinds—from house pets to livestock to wildlife. Starting at 14, I volunteered in local vet clinics and wildlife rehab centers, gaining hands-on experience with everything from cats and dogs to peacocks, horses, goats, snakes, fish, birds, and cattle. At UC Davis, I deepened my care skills while working at the world-renowned Vet Hospital, tending to cats and dogs during the swing shift. I also worked with campus goats, pigs, sheep, fish, cattle, and horses—and even fostered cats for the hospital. Now in my 30s, I’m an education professional and dedicated pet mom to both cats and dogs. I continue to care for friends’ and neighbors’ pets with the same compassion, attention, and responsibility that’s guided me my whole life. I’m certified in Infant, Child, and Adult CPR/AED/First Aid, and have emergency care experience with animals large and small. I’m calm under pressure, reliable, and always communicate clearly—your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I'm currently taking a break from teaching, and being a full-time stay-at-home mama to my 2.5 year old daughter. I have plenty of time to care for your furry family member. Please note that at this time, we are seeking families whose pets are comfortable around toddlers and children. I have a fully fenced yard, and a park just around the corner from my house for those whose furry friends enjoy a stretch, walk, or playtime! I am comfortable using a crate, and we have plenty of floor room in the house (carpet and laminate) for them to lay down if they're not crate trained. We do not allow dogs on the furniture. Cats are allowed to wander the house. We are more than happy to put up child gates to keep your furry family member in certain areas of the house if they're prone to getting into things (such as stuffed animals for the kiddos... I mean really, a lot of doggie toys these days look so similar! I'd understand the misconception. lol) We're not afraid to be firm but kind if your family member needs set boundaries.

“Ann is an amazing sitter! Extremely accommodating to our needs. Our flight back home got delayed and she did not hesitate to agree to change our pick up time booking for later ... but the most important part of the service was she kept our little Chanel happy, gave us multiple updates including photos via text. Thanks Ann for your amazing services! We will definitely use your sitter services again.”

“I’d give Karolina 6 stars if I could! The whole process from meet and greet to the end of our trip went very well. She kept us updated with pictures while we were gone. Most importantly, our dog is happy and healthy and was well loved.”

About: Hi there! I have a degree in animal science from UC Davis circa 2023 and I'm now back to complete my Master's of Public Health -- and hopefully take care of your fur baby. I've worked as an animal welfare consultant for UCSF, as a vet assistant for vet clinics and animal shelters across Yolo County, and completed an internship at Oakland Zoo followed by some time as an educator for young kids on how to care for exotic animals. Beyond that, I have my family's own three babies: Biscuit (16 year old dog), Mooncake (5 year old cat), and Misu (1 year old cat). I'm happy to chat with you about your baby's specialized care, whether that means medication administration or extra slow walks before the Davis heat sets in. I am currently in grad school so my schedule is flexible, but I live close to campus so I can always come home to check on the babies. I always treat others' homes with the best respect I can give. My job is not only to take care of your pet to the best of my abilities but to take care of the environment they live in.

“Wenchi was super sweet and provided me with updates and pictures of Cosmo during his stay with her! He was a very happy wiggly pup when I went to pick him up. Thank you!”

“I recently had the pleasure of entrusting my beloved Husky Mochi to Kesson & Hiromi for the second time. Once again, they exceeded all expectations in caring for my furry baby. Communication is critical when leaving your pet in someone else's care; they excel in this aspect. I received regular updates throughout my vacation, including adorable photos and videos. I cannot recommend Kesson & Hiromi highly enough. I am grateful to have found such a reliable and caring duo, and I will undoubtedly entrust my husky to their capable hands in the future. Thank you, Kesson & Hiromi, for providing a second home for my Mochi!”

Elmira A.

“Gabi was excellent with Teddy! She kept him so active, gave him lots of snuggles, and he almost didn’t want to come home with us! We would book Gabi again!”

“Charlie has never stayed at a rover house before and he is 10 years old and very high maintenance. He had the best time at Achara’s house and we are so grateful to have found a place for him to stay. Her dogs are very friendly and gave Charlie his space to feel comfortable. He will definitely be back!”

“Our one year old Frenchie was well cared for and seemed very happy when we picked him up. Coryn was communicative and sent videos throughout his stay.”
