Dog Boarding in El Cerrito

Luna had such a great stay with Lucia! She provided lots of photos, videos, and updates. I can tell she really cares about the dogs she watches, and I would definitely book with her again!

Luna is a wonderful dog sitter! Cosmo, my dog was thrilled and happy to have stayed with her and her lovely dog, Jim! Jim was also the perfect fur host, showing Cosmo where they should play and that it was okay to run around and play together. Luna has a large and lovely yard and Cosmo enjoyed the serenity of the yard and home. Cosmo can be shy and aloof, and he does not react well to negative energy. But, he warmed up to Luna because of her thoughtful and positive approach to care giving. I trusted her to take good care of him. And, she did! Cosmo can be a velcro dog as he is with us practically 24/7, so it eased our anxiety to know that she was there for him. Thank you Luna for taking good care of Cosmo. Much aloha, Diane and Philip G.

Julie and Adam are terrific! So kind, personable, thoughtful, and relaxed. They have a lovely fully fenced backyard where a dog can explore with lots of garden items to sniff. They took time to ask questions and are just so easy to interact with. Kona had a great time, which means I got to have a great time too. Thank you!

I’ve sent my Max to two different kennels and he always comes back so sad, to the point that he doesn’t respond to us petting him. I wanted to try something more personable so I tried Rover. Maria was great and sent me photos and updates of Max during his stay. She noticed he wasn’t eating and made him special food for him with my permission of course. He came back so happy this time! He literally was smiling and happy to see us. One of her neighbors stopped my husband on the way out to tell him how much all the other neighbors liked Max. I’m sure they met him several times during his walks with Maria. I would highly recommend her!

We have a very spoiled 9 year old Welsh Terrier and had a big family event to attend to. I found Ashish on Rover and booked a stay for Lola our Welshie. Ashish is warm and welcoming and has a great open yard for pups. He was nice enough to send photos of her stay and was good enough to extend her stay a few hours. Highly recommended.

My dog Bentley had great stays with Ross, Melissa and Millie. I love their dog friendly home and caring attitude. They provided lots of fun updates with pics and videos, which put my mind at ease. Great experience.

Mariola did a fantastic job taking care of my dog Nellie, and was available to take her last-minute after my previous sitter had to cancel. She is very experienced with dog training, and worked on several commands and behaviors. Nellie seemed to really enjoy her time there with the other little dogs!

Louis was great with my shy 8-year-old pittie. It normally takes at least a full day for Thor to warm up to new people, but after just a 15-minute introduction at Louis’s home, he acted like he’d lived there his entire life. Louis has a real gift for making anxious dogs feel comfortable and safe.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

Catherine was amazing. She cared for our 7-month-old puppy, Cricket, for a whole week while we were away, and we felt completely at ease and new that she was in great hands. From when we first met her, it was clear that Catherine is a real dog person -- warm attentive and genuinely excited to spend time with Cricket. It was obvious that she truly cared about her and enjoyed having her. Her dog, Kizmet was also a sweet role model for Cricket. Catherine sent the cutest photos and videos of Kizmet and Cricket cuddling and napping together, along with daily updates from the dog park and their adventures. She sent photos, videos, and little notes every day, which really put me at ease knowing how happy and well cared for Cricket was. The day we came back we arrived home at 8:30 at night and she tired Cricket out with lots of park visits so she would be tired when we got home. And she even gave Cricket a bath before pickup! We’re so grateful to have found Catherine. Nothing better than truly feeling at ease when traveling knowing that your dog is in such loving hands. Thank you, Catherine! You're the best. We'll definitely be in touch again the next time we're away.

Thank you Te’Arie for watching our energetic pup for 2 weeks! Te’Arie communicated with us throughout her time there, making us feel great that Maisy was well cared for while we were gone.

Danielle (and Joel) are wonderful caretakers for your dog. Warm, caring and true dog people. My labradoodle took to Danielle immediately upon meeting her in our "interview" and when we dropped him off for an almost 2 week stay, he didn't look back when she took his leash. She kept us apprised several times a day with great pics & videos, showing him happy and then spent from the many walks. Coco is a people dog and he got lots of personal attention, but also got to play with other dogs. I'm ready to book another stay, and have told a few friends to consider her. That's the best endorsement I can give!

Allora and her husband Oliver are so sweet and understanding of anxious dogs. My dog Laila is reactive to dogs and can be afraid of men, but glad to hear that she's enjoying her time with their dog Boba and snuggling with Oliver. Allora sent lots of updates throughout the 2-day trial which I truly appreciate. I'm confident that her long stay with them will be successful!

Lucas was very responsive to my communications and was flexible with our situation (I needed someone to watch our dog when I had to give birth to my daughter). He did a great job of taking care of our dog.

Absolutely loved Kai’s stay with Yuko! I had 4 trips over 3 months and was feeling guilty and worried about leaving Kai again for 6 days. We did a meet and greet and right away I felt comfortable that Kai would be well cared for. Yuko was flexible, so caring, and communicative - I received videos and updates about Kai’s state and whether she was eating well. I was so comforted knowing Kai was with loving dog sitters and had doggie friends to play with. Highly recommend!

Kai just spent 5 days with Radha while I was on a work trip and Radha was awesome! Flexible when I had to drop Kai off early, sent me pictures in the morning and evenings, and gave Kai so much love! I feel so confident leaving Kai with Radha and know she will be taken care of 💓

Luciana and Rob are just wonderful! They are such warmhearted people who take amazing care of our dogs. They really go above and beyond to make sure both our dogs feel safe, secure, and well cared for and we can tell that our dogs feel loved whenever they’re with Luciana and Rob. We can’t thank them enough for giving us a greater peace of mind while we’re away because our dogs are in the best hands. We always recommend them to anyone who’s in need of a sitter.
