This was our second time having Sara board our pup, and she was awesome just like she was last time! It was over the New Year and we had forgotten to drop off our dogs thunder coat, but she did an amazing job helping him get through the stressful night of fireworks. She’s very communicative, responsive, and responsible, and I highly recommend her to anyone!

Our boys had a great stay and were well taken care of while we were away! We received lots of updates and photos of them having a great time, which definitely kept our minds at ease. We’d love to re-book in the future!

We've used Tracy twice, and both times were great. Our dogs seemed to warm up quickly, and she has been flexible and responsive.

Pablo was wonderful with my dog Tubby! He sent an update with pictures every day. Tubby is usually afraid of strangers but warmed up to him instantly. I would definitely recommend Pablo!

Lilly is amazing! She is very reliable, responsive, friendly and great to work with. She really spoiled our pup in the best way with lots of walks, pets, attention, and treats. She was able to give him a banana on a lick mat which is his favorite and sent lots of pics and videos every single day. Kevin looked like he had a so much fun playing and hanging out with Lilly and her husband. She and her husband provided exceptional care. Looking forward to using her services in the future. Thank you so much Lilly!

Jennifer and Jordon were amazing! They took my fur babe right in as their own. They were super accommodating with drop off and pick up times as well as communicative for the duration of his stay. They made sure he felt right at home and kept me updated on the activities of the day or any changes they may have had to implement due to weather (i.e. couldnt go to the dog park today because of the rain but we gave him a frozen treat to help expend some energy; we got to the dog park and he wanted to play in all the puddles, we got him all bathed and cleaned up though! Insert adorable picture of my dog wrapped in a towel, haha). I got plenty of picture updates and knew he was in great company. I would highly recommend them for your next boarding needs! I will definitely be using them for any future trips. Thank you for taking such great care of Maverick!♡

Violet was a tremendous babysitter for my boy Bo! It was very clear from the beginning he was extremely comfortable in his environment and it would be a great stay. I got very frequent and fun pics/videos during his stay, which put me greatly at ease. Would definitely bring Bo back to Violet's home in the future.

Sloopy really loves to stay with Donald. I think she thinks his home is hers. I really appreciate that he keeps her to a regular schedule and I think that reduces her anxiety greatly. I know that Sloopy is well cared for when she stays with Donald.

Melina is super sweet, caring and full of positive energy. She is great with communication, very punctual and fast to respond. Our puppy seemed super happy from the minute he met Melina until the end of his stay. We are sure he had a pleasant time and enjoyed his stay. We cannot recommend her enough, we already rebooked her twice and will always do if she is available!

Jessica was amazing and accommodated a last minute request with graciousness and responsiveness. She and her husband took great care of my pup and I’m so grateful I found her service. I was worried that I wouldn’t find anyone good in this semi-emergency situation. In reality, I found one of the best.

My dog Buddy has experienced anxiety and depression in the past when boarding him. I prefer to have him taken care of at home so was a bit worried about taking him somewhere else. Noni’s place was perfect. She has dogs of her own and it is obvious she is caring and very sensitive when opening g her place up to other dogs. Buddy love his stay and Noni made sure to send pictures and videos everyday and in each one I could tell Buddy was in great hands. Noni was on top of communicating about pick up and drop off as well as what I needed to bring. Absolutely stellar experience for both Buddy and I. Thank you Noni.

Juliana was absolutely wonderful! She gave Buddy so much love and I could tell when I picked him up that he had established a bond with her. :) I recently lost our my furry bestie of 16 years and Buddy was with him over 11 years so I was really nervous about leaving him with someone new since we’re both a little fragile but Juliana was incredibly gracious to us both and her care allowed me to be away for a week long work trip stress free. I got pics and a video and each one Buddy was living his best life. :) Great communication from her throughout the whole process. I highly recommend Juliana’s services!

Amazing caretakers! Sent a ton of updates (including pictures) and treated my dog great. Usually he is anxiously exhausted when I pick him up after a trip but today that wasn’t the case - goes to show how comfortable he was with Stephanie and her family. Looking forwarding to booking with them again!

I was in desperate need of a dog sitter for my puppy Shelby before a work trip and Chad really came through. I instantly felt comfortable leaving Shelby with him and his family. Shelby and his Pom became instant friends as Chad sent me pictures of them snuggling together.

What are some dog-friendly parks in Oakland?

With the temperate weather in Oakland, it's always a good time to get outside with your dog, whether you're a dog sitter or owner. Redwood Regional Park is located in the hills east of downtown Oakland, and has tons of trails and open space for dogs to run. They are allowed to be in the entire park on-leash, and are even allowed off-leash in some of the undeveloped areas. Sibley Volcanic Regional Preserve is another wooded park with lots of trails to explore on leash. Off-leash activity is also allowed in the less-developed areas of the park. Lake Merritt is closer to downtown Oakland and is a great place for dog sitters to take a stroll with small, medium, or large dogs on leash.

Why choose Rover dog boarding in Oakland?

As one of of California's biggest cities, Oakland has a ton of dog sitters that are highly qualified to watch your pets. All you have to do to find overnight dog boarding or any other service from Rover is search our site or app for sitters in the Oakland area. From there you can decide to book one, which can be done in just a few minutes.

Why do dog owners love Oakland?

From the 2,079-acre Tilden Regional Park to lively Jack London Square, dog owners in Oakland always have something fun to look forward to when it comes to being able to get out and about with their dogs. Dog owners really appreciate the great weather and the many attractions that Oakland offers, including a huge Chinatown district, Lake Merritt, and the Redwood Regional Park - home to the largest remaining natural stand of coast redwood found in the East Bay. Oakland dog owners can also leave their dog with a sitter and head to the famous Oakland Zoo and its 650 species, or escape to Children's Fairyland, a transporting amusement park with a storybook theme.

What are some dog-friendly neighborhoods in Oakland?

No matter what you're looking for, there's probably a neighborhood in Oakland that has it, especially when it comes to dog-friendly activities. The Rockridge neighborhood is quiet and family-friendly, and has small local parks that are perfect for taking dogs for a quick walk. Piedmont Avenue is another popular Oakland neighborhood, and is home to the Mountain View Cemetery, a cemetery well known for having famous people buried there. Taking a walk through the cemetery would be a fun adventure to take your dog on. If you like to take lake walks, Grand-Lake Merritt is the neighborhood for you. It has a great park called Lake Merritt with a 3.4-mile walking path that's perfect for short and long walks with small, medium or large dogs.

Oakland dog boarding or any other services are just a tap or click away on Rover. Your dog will have fun taking a hike in one of the many wooded parks or will enjoy a stroll around a neighborhood in town. And you will be able to enjoy what you're doing and know that your dog is safe and in good hands with Rover.
