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!

Jennifer & Jordan have been great! It’s the second time left our poodle with them. She was happy to see them from the get go - always a good sign. She got plenty of walks and playtime while we were gone and we received a ton of updates and pictures. So nice to know she is happy while we’re gone! Thanks, J&J!!

This was my first time boarding my dog with Michelle. From our initial meet n' greet, Michelle was friendly and took a sincere interest in all of the important details about my dog. Michelle provided frequent updates and photos on how things were going, and she was flexible when I had to extend the stay by an extra night. I appreciate the care and love she provided and highly recommend her services.

Pablo and his wife Clare were so awesome and gentle with our anxious fella Gumbo. Pablo kept us informed of their activities and send pics and videos throughout the stay. We’re so grateful that Gumbo is being loved and cared for while we’re away!

Cydney took such special care of our Diego. He really enjoyed the walks by the Lake and the views from her apartment. We'll definitely be looking to book with her again when needed.

Lilly has looked after my sweet boy Juice for daycare and this was my first time booking a multi day overnight stay with her. From meeting Lilly multiple times now I can really tell she has a true love and appreciation for dogs. She kept me updated and kept my boy safe. He came back full of energy and just as happy as when I dropped him off. Thank you again Lilly, you are so appreciated!!

Tyler took really good care of my Scotty! I knew he was in the right hands and that gave me a lot of peace while traveling. They went above and beyond to make sure my ol' pup was comfortable and active. also liked that there was another doggy on site. Sent really cute pics and videos to boot. Highly recommended.

Stephanie is absolutely amazing. She watched both of our dogs for a week and provided daily updates on what they were up to and included some amazing pictures. One of our dogs wasn’t feeling amazing a few of the days and Stephanie went above and beyond to notify us and even offered to take the dog to the vet. Both dogs are properly exhausted after an amazing visit with Stephanie, even teaching me a fun game to play with the dogs! I 100% trust Stephanie with my dogs and honestly can’t put into words how happy I am to have found her.

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!

Charlene and her partner were great with our ladies while we were away. I loved that Charlene took the time to learn about our house rules and followed them in her own home (such as not allowing them to get up on furniture). She was also great about getting our elderly dog to take her medicines and was very kind and gentle with our younger nervous girlie. She sent us photos, videos and updates daily too. My favorite was a photo of both of our giant girls with their heads resting on her lap. That's a true sign that they got lots of love from her. Thank you so much Charlene!

Winnie treated Hercules as if he was her own. She showed him love, cuddled with him, walked him regularly and even gave him a bath so he came home smelling good! She kept me updated throughout his stay with messages and a steady flow of pictures. I highly recommend Winnie to anyone looking for a caring and loving sitter.

We had an excellent experience with Violet and her fiancée Henry. She’s super friendly, communication throughout was super quick and easy, and their dog Warren is delightful and seemingly was a great playmate for our dog while she was with Violet. She also sent lots of photos and updates which was nice. They have a great backyard which we don’t have at home so I’m sure our dog loved it! Highly recommended!

We boarded our dog, Tara with Alexis while we went away on a trip. Alexis checked in with us daily on Tara’s stay. She sent pictures and let us know Tara got her medication on time. We had a great trip knowing Alexis was taking such great care of Tara, and we didn’t have to worry about anything. Overall, it has been a GREAT experience working with Alexis and we absolutely suggest her to others.

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.
