Services

•Dog Walking

Our dog-walking clients don't just go on dog walks... they have adventures! Dog walks are group outings to the beach or trails for a minimum of one hour. Dogs are usually off-leash. Some of our favorite dog-adventure spots are Redwood Regional Park, Leona Canyon, Claremont Canyon, the Albany Bulb, Strawberry Canyon, Pt. Isabel, and the Bridgeview Trail. We have permits with the East Bay Regional Park District (EBRPD) to take up to six dogs each on EBRPD trails. All dogs in our groups are up-to-date on shots, neutered or spayed, and good with other dogs. We're not dog trainers but we do constantly reinforce good trail manners. We pick up and return your dog to your home, rinsing and/or toweling your dog off as needed before we leave your relaxed and happy dog to wait for you.

•Dog Boarding

We board up to four dogs each in our, Albany, Oakland (Oakland home #1, Oakland home #2), and Hayward homes. Boarding clients get a daily minimum of one hour of "adventure time" on the beach or trails. After that the dogs are in our homes where they get play time and time to snuggle, watch movies, and hang out. We do not leave dogs in the yard by themselves or put them in a garage or basement where they are not supervised. Boarding dogs have full access to our homes and us and are truly treated as if they are our own dogs. We only take spayed or neutered dogs that are up-to-date on shots and socialized with other dogs and people. Before dogs can board with us we do a trial day and night to make sure it's a good fit for both sides. We charge $50 cash or $55 check for the trial day and night and you must be in town that night. Regular boarding is $50 per day if cash and $55 per day if check.

•Drop-In Visits

We do drop-in visits for kitties or other pets who need individual attention. Drop-in visits may include feeding, watering, individual leashed neighborhood walks for dogs, scooping or changing kitty litter, playing and giving treats, and ear scratches to full body massage! Sometimes clients have us water their tomato plants, take in their mail, and turn on different lights in the home to give the appearance that they’re home. We charge $35 for a half-hour drop-in visit and we can work out different pricing for clients who need longer visits.
