Doggy Day Care in San Rafael

About: ****Please note new changes *** I recently adopted and rescued a sweet 1 yr old Havanese mix dog. He's very friendly and very chill with animals including cats. For dog sits, I would request that he come with me (although he might not and he might stay home with his mom). I have an extensive history with animals. Lastly, a new update, I will not accept dogs who are aggressive with other dogs moving forward. I have owned three dogs, two cats, and two ferrets in the past. I have always been a dog lover ever since I was a young boy. I currently adopted a new dog and he is a sweet angel and very well-behaved. You will get constant updates on how your dog is doing on a daily basis. I will take them on fun adventures to hiking trails, beaches, or parks. I am a firm believer that dogs are really man's best friends and will treat your furry friend as if he/she was my own, with lots of love. Look forward to meeting with you and your dog. Yes, I currently walk my dog at least 3 times a day, including a hike where we can meet other dogs. I do this full-time as we have officially entered a recession in the tech world. If I am in the home/boarding, I will ensure your dog is fed and adheres to their normal routines. Nothing changes when I care for them, except we might be hiking a lot depending on their age and if they can handle that; if not, we chill locally and take small local walks or let them outside for relief.

“Chris, thank you so much. We have so much peace of mind knowing that you loved Bodhi as much as we do. It was wonderful to get feedback from you and see pictures of your hike. We look forward to working with you again.”

“Marisa & her lovely family are so kind to Romeo. What a perfect spot with a sweet yard. He strolled up to their house on day 2 with a wagging tail & made himself at home. Happy to have Marisa in the neughborhood!”

“I'm so beyond grateful with the care and love that Aiko received today! Nima & Parmina kept communicating with me throughout the date, were punctual, cordial and very sweet to my pooch Aiko! A 100% recommended!! Bonus: would definitely love to book another doggie date with them, as they have a beautiful doggo as well that's super friendly!”

“I highly recommend Jackie. She treated my 14-month old French Bulldog puppy (Flóki) as her own. She patiently dealt with any challenges and kept me informed throughout the day (sending pictures/messages). Jackie is the kind of dog sitter that you can confidently leave your pet with a sense of security knowing your best friend is in very good, caring hands! ??”

“Tatiana is a dog whisperer!!! My doggie had an amazing day with her. Aiko's first time staying with a sitter. No distress, no mess, no howling. She ate, she walked, and she napped! I'm so thankful that I found Tatiana and I will definitely have my doggo enjoy her company again soon!”

About: I’ve been a trusted house and pet sitter for over 15 years and I love to provide the best care. I’m passionate about animals and want to make sure owners know they have left thier animals in the hands of someone who can be relied on to provide the same level of love care as they would. I’ll be able to be flexible in schedule most days and strive to always update my calendar to reflect my exact availability. I’m available for pet walking, house / pet sitting. I can currently care for your pets in your home! I am happy to take suggestions on which routes your pets like to walk and any other instructions in order to provide the best care for them.

“Marlo is wonderful. She is calm, caring, and my little pup calmed right down with her and had a wonderful day. I think Izzy has found her person!. Thank you so much Marlo and we hope to book with you again very soon.”

“Thank you so much for taking care of my pup Hazelnut! She absolutely loves kids/families and she clearly had an amazing time - she didn't want to leave!! :) Appreciate all your care and clear communication. Thank you!”

“Sedra is awesome! I think Aiko loved her very much and I'm very happy with everything worked out. We will definitely see her again soon!”

“Nick is a great sitter! He will follow your instructions 100% and make sure your dog is comfortable! What I liked most was that he takes one dog at a time and he won’t add any other before asking you if you’re ok with that! The location he lives is a slightly busy street and not so easy to park at night. Thanks Nick for having my precious Calvin!”

“Alexandra did a great job with my dog rags. He was more calm with her than he normally is when with a sitter and she sent me an update as well.”

“Amber is an animal lover! She especially loves to play and care for dogs. She has experience caring for dogs since she was a child. Grooming, feeding and walking them are second nature to her. I think her favorite thing though is to just hangout and love any and all animals.”

“I highly recommend Anne for dog sitting. She has boarded our lab Mollie on several occasions for multiple days and has done a wonderful job. She is responsible, responsive and loving in caring for dog boarders. I will definitely use her services in the future. Please email me if you have questions. brad.s.clark@outlook.com”

“Angela is kind and responsive. We're so lucky to get connected with her to provide daycare for our puppy. She did a great job.”

“Todd and Courtney were fantastic! Bentley went to them right away and seemed at home from the start. They even sent pictures of him on his walk and playing. He came home happy and nice and tired! I highly recommend them.”

About: My family loves dogs and cats - all animals. We recently lost our Golden Doodle Skipper. We consider dogs full fledged members of the family. I am home during the day, my high school seniors and husband are home each night. We will make all dogs boarding here feel loved. We have dealt with most every type of pet emergency as well. My schedule is flexible. I work at home. I take regular walks in our neighborhood and love having a canine companion. As a family, we love to play with dogs and they are welcome everywhere in the house. I love to take dogs with me when I run errands. We have a fenced yard. The dog would be welcome inside snuggled in one of our dog beds or sitting with me in my office while I work. I like to walk in my neighborhood and a companion is always welcomed.

“We were traveling and had last minute need for a sitter. What a lucky break finding Carla & Lenny! Not only was our boy well cared for, but he went on a gorgeous hike and made friends! He may have had a better holiday than us! Definitely will use again when we’re back in the area.”

About: I have had dogs all my life and always volunteer to watch my friends pets when they are out of town. I have previously fostered small dogs and love spending time taking care of cats and dogs. I have a lot of free time as I work from home most of the time and I spend my weekends pampering and loving my own pup. I live in a very dog friendly, quiet area with a nice park for walks. I like to keep a calm and relaxing space for animals but also love play time and going on long walks or playing ball in the fenced in dog park.

“Elizabeth was great with Moose- plenty of long walks and play time. He's always a happy dog when I get him. She is very good with communication and sending pictures of the pup through the day, and very warm and friendly. Will be back next time we need a boarder for a vacation, thanks!”
