Dog Boarding in Woodminster, Oakland

“Chad was caring and patient with my dog, and he was very responsive to my messages. He was able to stay home with her and provided regular updates, and it gave me peace of mind that she was in good hands while my husband and I were at our wedding.”

“Kelly is an amazing dog-sitter and a true animal-lover. Our dog Freckles is always thrilled to see her (he wags his tail with such enthusiasm it almost looks like he's going to take off like a helicopter!) She is super-communicative and always provides the sweetest pictures and updates. She is our go-to sitter and we're so lucky to have found her!”

“Lauren babysat my dog Zorro multiple times. He was a COVID dog with some attachment issues, and she was extremely kind and patient with him. Every time I need someone to look after Zorro, I check to see if she's available. Your pup will be in excellent hands with Lauren!”

“Jeff and family took great care of my dog! With a large enclosed yard, comfy spots to lounge, and lots of attention from humans, he felt right at home. I will definitely use Jeff again.”

“Harvey had an amazing time with Timothy and Katherine! Amazing communication and I even scored some glamour shots of my pup while I was away. Trips to the park and long walks were another added bonus. Thank you both so much for keeping an eye on Harvey while I was away!”

“My pup absolutely LOVED his stay with Kelly and her wonderful family. In fact, I’m sure he was a bit sad to leave. Great sitter. Cannot recommend enough!”

“Kim & Jeff were the most amazing dog sitters ever! Not only did we get a million picture updates of Harley, but the pictures (and an adorable video) we received were of Harley lounging and playing exactly like he would do at home. This made us super confident that he was happy and comfortable. Kim & Jeff have two sweet pups of their own and host other dogs as well, but it was very clear that each pup received special care and attention. They really have a genuine love for dogs and we would go out of our way to leave Harley with them again!”

“Donald's photos and updates really put me at ease while I was away on a work trip. Desi was very loved and cared for. Even at pickup he was jumping up and down on Donald. A dream scenario for this nervous pet mom!!”

“Jessica is a darling person and probably a pet "empath"! She is communicative and conscientious with both humans and dogs - very tuned in to listening to the requests/needs of both. She was transparent about where my pup would be for care (moving between her home and another house-sit during the week) and talked to me about the other dogs that would be in her care. Jessica sent at least one video every day and also went above and beyond, keeping a daily log of his activities and eating/sleeping schedule. When I picked up my happy healthy pup he was also newly bathed and smiling big smiles. He clearly had so much fun, he seemed bored all day when we got home! I am glad to know her and wish her a thriving business! She deserves it!”

“Very kind! I chose cat boarding since I was moving and I didn’t want my boys to get out. When I went to drop them off, I was given all the time I needed to say bye to my babies.”

“There’s no place like home but this is the closest place to it. Wonderful, warm, loving and caring home by a wonderful, loving and caring person. And her dear sweet mother too! 5 stars all around. I had to find a sitter on extreme short notice and I was so thrilled that Chawntea was willing to accept my pup with less than 12 hours notice and for a 13 day stay while I was out of the country. My pampered pooch was treated like her own and I honestly think she may have came back more spoiled than when I left her and after that much time away it was a wonderful feeling knowing she was cared for so well. She even gave her a bath! Definitely will be a repeat customer and looking forward to future play dates w/ Bailey. Thank you so much!”

“Amee has been taking care of our dog Juicy for the past 15 years. Amee was literally the only person Juicy trusted when we weren’t around. She would always text us pictures and updates with Juicy, like if she ate her food or used the bathroom and it gave us peace of mind knowing Juicy was safe and in the best care while we were out of town. Amee was always caring and loving towards our dog and our dog loved being around her (and our dog was VERY PICKY with who she gets close to - her chihuahua side was very territorial). Amee knows how to approach Juicy when she’s feeling anxious being in a new place and she knows how to make Juicy feel comfortable (sometimes our dog got too comfortable, like sleeping on top of Amee’s pillows lol). Before our Juicy crossed the rainbow bridge, Amee came by to say her goodbyes which meant so much to us. Thank you Amee for all years of love you’ve given us and to our Juicy girl!”

“Francesca is a dog whisperer and sent from the heavens! If you are reading this, take this as your sign to book Francesca if she is available! She cares deeply about animals, and truly gets to know your pet. She loves dogs so much and it shows. Luna was so happy with her, and they went on a ton of adventures at the dog park, and on hiking trails. Luna is extremely high energy and Francesca can handle all of it! Can’t recommend her more, and hope that she can always watch Luna when we’re ever away. Thank you for everything!”

“This was Rex’s second stay with Mary and Murphy Brown and we couldn’t be happier! Mary is so great and patient with Rex! As a super senior he is on multiple meds and needs potty breaks quite frequently, and Mary jumped right in without skipping a beat. She was in constant communication and shared tons of photos to give me peace of mind during my trip! Rex will be back again next month!”

“Absolutely wonderful. Charlene is really responsive, super loving to the dogs, and just a joy to work with. My dogs seemed sad to come back home with me so they must've had a great time. My husband described it as our kids going to grandma's house where they get spoiled (but not too much), and now they have to go back home to their strict parents. Haha! Charlene sent me a bunch of pictures while we were away. She was also really understanding when I was late for pickup. Overall, a great experience. Can't wait to have her dogsit again!”

About: My husband and I have owned and cared for dogs for many years. We don’t have one of our own right now but love dogs and would love to open our house and yard to host your loved one and care for them while you are away. We both work from home and will be able to be there most of the day to let dogs in and out, make sure they are taken care of and show them lots of love. We have a fully fenced in yard with both sun and shade and live on a quiet street in a two story house with lots of room for dogs to explore.

“This was our second time booking with Kara and when we showed up to drop off Charlie, he bolted out of the car to say hi to her and her son Nathan. He was so happy to see them and we could tell he had a great time when we picked him up. Kara took great care of Charlie and sent us picture and video updates.”

“Victoria has a lovely apartment and a fabulous little pup, WonTon. My dogs had a great time staying with them over a long weekend, thanks Vicki! I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a caring person to watch their dogs.”

“Ashley and her husband helped me out when I was in a bind and needed a sitter on short notice ! They were kind and sent to many pictures and updates 13/10, definitely would book again.”

“Zina was so great! Communicative, flexible and I knew Enzo was in such great hands with her and her roommate!”
