Dog Boarding In West Oakland

“Victoria is absolutely awesome! She suggested a meet and greet before our stay given my dog hasn’t met cats before. She was so clearly knowledgeable from the start; meeting us outside with one of her dogs and gradually introducing our dog to her pets. Our pup can play rough and be a bit wild since he’s only a year old but she seemed totally confident in managing all the dogs’ behavior. Her home is super pet friendly (pets allowed on furniture, fenced yard) and she knows a ton about watching dogs. She noted she would feed dogs separately to limit resource guarding and had a brilliant method of having me leave while my dog was outside when I dropped him off to reduce separation anxiety. My dog had an amazing time with Victoria! She sent regular text, photo, and video updates which we so appreciated. She allowed him to sleep in her bed with her and clearly spoiled him like one of her own. He was getting over a mild ear infection and she even gave him his last few doses of medication! We had a great experience with Victoria and will definitely use her in the future!”

About: Hi, I'm Damara! I have grown up with dogs my entire life. We recently said goodbye to our senior Boston Terrier in January of this year. We have owned multiple Boston Terriers for the past 20 years. I also recently fostered a Goberian (half Golden Retriever/half Husky) for 4 months so am comfortable with large dogs as well as small. I work a hybrid schedule that I manage myself so can be home most of the time with your pet. If I do need to be in the office I am only gone for 4-5 hours at a time. I have a fenced in courtyard that's great for quick potty breaks and lounging in the sun. But I also really enjoy long walks so can accomodate whatever your pets prefer. Happy to discuss everything and will do whatever is best for your pet. We also own a Syrian Hamster named Cookie Dough that is completely secure in her enclosure. Your pet would have to be ok with children (extra play time for your pet) because I have a 9 year old daughter who is here most of the time. I will be the person providing care to your pet 100% of the time. At no time will my child be responsible for or left alone with your pet. Any additional questions, please ask. We are not yet ready for our own full time dog and we miss having one around so I figured we would give Rover a try. Look forward to meeting you and your pet. I currently work a hybrid schedule that I manage myself. I can mostly be home full time for your pet. If I have to go into the office it would only be for 4-5 hours. I have a fenced in brick courtyard that is great for quick potty breaks or basking in the sun. Also comfortable walking your pet long distances if they need a lot of exercise.

“Breanna was everything we could have asked for in a sitter! She sent lots of photos and updates, had toys for our dog to play with, and even took him for his favorite treat, a pup cup! She was very communicative and asked great questions to make sure she knew everything he needed. I'd definitely hire her again!”

“Keqi was a wonderful pet sitter for my cat. He had a great visit, and loved getting the extra attention from their other cat. Very responsive and flexible sitter. I would highly recommend!”

“Our schedule was erratic and included my mistake in scheduling. Sima and her family were gracious hosts and worked with our schedule. I received updates on how our doggo was doing everyday. It has been a pleasure working with them, I would definitely consider them next time we are in town.”

“Nelia and Brett were wonderful. They cared for Bronson as if he were a part of their household and were very communicative and accommodating. I highly recommend their service.”

“Courtney is amazing. So sweet and understanding. She took such great care of my 2 dogs and treated them just like her own. One dog I thought was my problem child pup but she had no problem with him which is such a plus when going away. I will book with Courtney from now on. So happy to have found her. Thank you Courtney.”

Denise S.

“Very pleased with our experience with Mike and his daughter. They loved our dog like their own. Kept him active and well cared for. Mike was very accommodating and easy to work with as well. 100% reccomend and will be rebooking.”

“Justin was very welcoming and after a visit together with Watson, I left Alexa in good hands. Justin sent lots of pictures of Alexa and Watson taking walks, and relaxing at home.”

Russell F.

“Adrienne does an amazing job with Finn! She kept us updated with the absolute cutest pictures and videos of him playing with Phoebe and snuggling on their couch. When we got home, he was so snoozy after having a great few days playing with his buddies. Thanks again for taking great care of our little guy.”

About: Animals have always been a big part of my life. Since I was 16, I've cared for multiple dogs for family and friends, gaining experience with pets of different ages, sizes, and personalities. I also volunteer with local shelters, including the SPCA and Humane Animal Rescue, where I've worked with a variety of animals and developed strong pet-care skills. I am patient, dependable, and committed to making every pet feel safe, comfortable, and loved while in my care! I'm currently working full-time, but I would love to spend my evenings taking care of your sweet pups and getting in a nice walk! I am available for boarding on weekends and walks on weekdays after 4 pm. I do not have any pets in my home, which allows me to focus fully on your pet's needs. I live in an apartment with stairs and access to an outdoor yard, and there are plenty of safe, walkable areas nearby for exercise. When caring for pets in a client's home, I do my best to maintain their normal routine, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any special instructions, so they feel comfortable while you're away!

“Denise is amazing! My pup was so happy and loved. Her and her husband took great care of my dog and kept me up to date on him throughout everyday with plenty of videos and pictures. Best part is he came home exhausted which is always a great sign that he had so much fun. We will be booking again!”

“Amy is terrific. She sends us updates and pictures and Coco has a great place to come when we travel ! Coco is very comfortable coming to Amy and that is awesome !”

“We would like to give Ali 10 stars! She was the best possible caregiver for our nervous goofy dog. She sent dear photos and videos during our trip, and it was so sweet to hear how she spoke to Lucky. On top of all of the expert care, she was extremely gracious and flexible when I made a mistake with the booking dates. We feel so fortunate to have found Ali.”
