Doggy Day Care in Alameda

Andrea is the best! I'm so grateful for the wonderful care that she gives to Baxter. She is so kind and loving to him and attentive to his different moods. The cute pictures and videos make my day!

Charlene and team did an excellent job caring for our Gio for a few hours while we attended our mom’s birthday party. Charlene sent lots of pics and kept us updated on how he was doing the whole time. Would definitely recommend Charlene for your sitting needs. Thank you!

Erika is amazing!! She took care of our toy poodle Bailey and he had a blast! She is super responsive and provided photo updates throughout the day. I felt at ease leaving Bailey with her. Highly recommended!

We are so grateful for Alejandra’s excellent care! We always know our pup is safe and attuned to when he’s with her. Excellent communication. Couldn’t ask for more in a sitter for our little Lou.

Angel is an amazing pet sitter! She sent me plenty of photos and updates, which gave me great peace of mind. She was also very accommodating with last-minute changes, which I really appreciated. I would definitely trust her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for reliable pet care.

We are so HAPPY to have had Michelle and Mandar look after our pup. Michelle was warm and attentive and sent us constant updates on how our pet was doing and what he was up to. This was so reassuring! We will most definitely be reaching out to her again to take care of our pup! Thanks Michelle and fam! We are so happy to have found you!

Sydney is caring and a dog and cat mom herself. She can keep your pet totally separate from her animals in her studio garage that has been converted to a pet suite for multiple day stays. There's a loveseat and plenty of floor space. She has a small rear patio area for sniffing and potty breaks. She is happy to take short or long walks with your dog and can do hills. Stella feels safe with Sydney and that means the world to me as I am at work all day.

Great visit, caring caretaker, thank you!

If you're not interested in reading the long version, just know this - Tamara is amazing. You should be so lucky to have her watching your pet! Due to COVID restrictions and complications I ended up having to leave my pets back east while I established residence here in Berkeley in May 2020. I was away from my poor dog for a whole 6 months before I was able to bring her here, and because of all the big changes she developed an acute case of separation anxiety. She was barking all day long as soon as I left for work. You can imagine my distress ... and all the complaints from the neighbors. I devised a training plan to get my girl back on track with her confidence during home alone time, but the plan required that my pup not be left alone until she was trained to tolerate those longer time frames. So here I was, during COVID times, in a brand new place whee I didn't know anyone, looking for a doggy daycare that could provide the stability and consistency I needed. Enter Tamara, our hero! She totally understood my pups predicament and her shy demeanor, and she was so professional, warm, patient and kind about everything. As another reviewer said, she really does understand how to work with dogs (even if they are shy or quirky like my girl). She took Lou for long walks during the day so my training sessions in the evening were much more productive. Not to mention her dog Finn is a complete angel!!! We are so glad we found Miss Tamara.

Jake is always the best! We have Dashi on a consistent weekly daycare plan with him and whenever we pick up Dashi, he's ready for his dinner from all the playing he did and falls asleep immediately after haha! I get tons of pictures, lots of communication, and know that Dashi is in good hands. We always have a great experience with Jake!

Ryan had a great time at Chad’s! He was his first sitter since we rescued him from OAS a month ago. He came home relaxed and tired, which is an unusual sight for our 9 mo rambunctious 70 pound shepsky. I was worried about his puppy behaviors that we have only just begun training him on, like mouthing, jumping, resource guarding, and chewing. Chad has two puppies so he gets it and knew how to handle Ryan. Ryan loved playing with Chad’s dog and being in his awesome back yard. Thanks, Chad!

If I could give more than 5stars I would. My pup had an amazing time and was so happy even when I picked him up. Toon went above and beyond what I expected for Luke's care. He sent photos and updates on how Luke was doing the whole time he was there. He was even patient when my dog slipped in his pee after having an accident in the house. He bathed my pup and sent photos and videos. My pup came from a bigger litter and he had friends to play with. By the time my pup came home that evening he was tired and slept well for the first time without all the nighttime crying. Thank you toon for making my day easier leaving my pup for the 1st time. We will be seeing you soon!

I have never used a dog sitter prior to my encounter with Brittney. And I have not been disappointed at all. She has been phenomenal with my dog. Eager to learn more about her to make sure she is most comfortable while she is with her. Very kind, patient and really treats my baby like family. She has given me such a peace of mind knowing my girl is in good hands while I am at work.

Kelly took such great care of Carlito. I really appreciated her quick response and the different play options she had for my dog. He came back tired and happy. I would definitely book her services again. She was great for my dog.
