Pet Sitters in Downtown

Tails up is a super professional, reliable, and well run business. They’ve been taking care of our daily dog walks for 3+ years and send photos/videos updates of your dog each time. My dog always comes back tired and ready for a nap. Thanks Lucy and team!

Lucy is God sent!! I was in the area for an emergency and dogs are not allowed in the ICU but Ms. Lucy came to our rescue. Tails Up Pet Care is professional, provided video updates and was absolutely amazing with Kitty our four month old teacup Yorkie.

While I work 2 days per week in San Francisco, the dog handlers at TailsUp have been taking my pup for group play dates for 2+ years. They adore her and pair her with equally social dogs. She is happy and exercised when I come home, which is a win-win for both of us!

Lucy and Diana continue to be such great help during COVID. They are careful about following proper health protocols and I have never felt at risk with them walking my dogs. Thank you!

Lucy, the owner, and Diana have just been a pleasure to work with in taking care of our little guy, Benji. Benji gets lots of attention and love during his playgroup sessions monday thru friday and we get daily pics of Benji having fun with his doggie friends. Tails up is very professional, responsive and are clear dog lovers. Diana is our main playgroup leader, and she's been trustworthy and reliable, as is Lucy. A pleasure to have them with us for the past 4-5 years.

We have had a great experience with tails up pet care. Our dogs love the daily dog part outings and look forward to it. The service is great and the communication is good with caring people. We have been very satisfied with the service.

My dog, Aura, loves going to Isabel! I drop her off for daycare when I go to work and she always comes back happy and well exercised. Isabel focuses on structured play and takes Aura and her entire pack on multiple walks to various parks throughout the day. Unlike other commercial daycares, she is very selective about which dogs she accepts in her pack which is why I can trust that Aura will never be stuck with dogs that she doesn’t enjoy playing with or who are overly aggressive. She thoroughly enjoys and is very passionate about all the dogs she takes care of. Isabel is very thorough and I am very relieved and care free when my Aura is with her. Aura has started listening to commands better and has started walking on the leash much better since she started with Isabel. It’s great to finally find someone that cares about Aura as much as we do!

Isabel is fantastic! Very easy to communicate with, and my dog comes home a tired and happy boy. Highly recommend.

My dog Luna has been with Doza Dogs for over 3 years, On daily basis and I have to say I am very grateful for them and their services! They are awesome at what they do, reliable and take great care of my baby girl. The Business owner Omar, is genuinely a good human being, Is passionate about what he does, and does a phenomenal job communicating, and keeping all the dogs safe and well. And I must add he always strives to help and better his community. Mauricio, And the other fellas, whose name I forgot, are also solid human being and take pride and their job and great care of all the dogs. All in all very honorable business, and I’m grateful for them. There’s been times that I have needed help outside of Doggy Daycare and Omar and his family never hesitated to give a helping hand out of the kindness of his hearts. Great business, great people, great service. Hands-down. Thank you, Doza Dogs for all that you do!🤍

We love Doza’s Dogs! Omar has the most wonderful way with our dog. We have used them for daycare and boarding since July 2023. Our dog needed socialization and she was scared of the van. Omar and Mauricio were so patient and kind. Now she loves to go. They give the dogs a lot of exercise and they come home tired. I trust them and highly recommend.

I have used Doza's Dogs for daycare and boarding. My dogs love it. They get so excited when the van pulls up, they run to get in it! Omar takes great care of the dogs, feeding them their individual foods (using my special, slow-eating bowl for one of them), giving them their medications, and making sure they get plenty of exercise, as well as down-time and personal attention. My dogs have a great time playing with the other dogs, who are all friendly and well-socialized. Omar posts recordings of the dogs, and it is nice to see my dogs playing happily while I am away. He picks up and drops off the dogs too, which is a helpful service. I used to want someone to stay at my house with my dogs when my family traveled, but after finding Doza Dogs, I feel like I am giving my dogs a special vacation of their own.

Our dog, Homer, has been with Doza’s Dogs since 2019 and it was the best decision we could have made for Homer! Omar and his team are true professionals and care so much for all the dogs they care for. Omar always has the dogs in mind when he makes decisions about the business and has taken the time to learn from masters in the business. Homer is so excited every time he gets picked up for a day at Doza’s Dogs. Once, my husband was playing with Homer at a park in Menlo Park and Homer suddenly ran off towards the street (extremely strange behavior for Homer), and when my husband caught up with him, Homer was playing with Omar whose van he recognized at the park. It was the sweetest little reunion! We adore Omar and I have complete trust and faith in him with Homer and all the dogs in his care. We struck gold when we found Omar and are so thankful for all the love and care he’s given Homer. Omar is family and beloved by my whole family. You can’t go wrong with Doza’s Dogs!

If you are looking for someone to be your furbaby best friend look no further. We’ve been with Doza’s Dogs for about 3 years and I can’t say enough about Omar and his team. They are responsible, reliable, and affordable. My Luna (Labrador Dog) loves all of them. I only have positive things to say about the team and the owner Omar. They are always on time and are very respectful. Besides we love that Doza’s Dogs is a local family own business.

I have been using Doza Dogs for over a year now. I got a puppy and I thought I would be OK working from home but it wasn’t. I was wrong. He is full of energy and always wants to play. He started off at one to two days a week and he now attends 5 days a week. I seen how happy he is playing with other dogs and how caring the Doza Dog team is. when he comes home after daycare. He is happy and he takes his nap because he’s so tired from playing. I’m able to get work with no interruptions and I don’t have to worry about him when I go into the office. Omar and the Doza Dogs team are awesome and I’m very happy with their services. 5 plus stars!

Doza’s Dogs has been taking care of my dogs for the last three years whenever I am out of town. Omar and his team are the only ones I trust to keep my dogs safe and happy while I’m away. Omar has been a valuable resource to help me with my rescue dog issues and I now have well adjusted happy dogs.

My girl, Colette 🐶, has been going to Doza’s Dogs since she was 4 months old. She will now be 4 years old in May, and enjoys every minute of it. She looks forward to her daycare visits, and loves her overnight stays when I’m out of town. I’m always happy to refer friends and neighbors to Doza’s Dogs because I am 100% confident that their pups will enjoy both the human and dog companions!

Omar and his team are so wonderful. My dog has some very big feelings about new people, and some equally big fears about new places. When we first connected with Omar, he went out of his way to slowly introduce himself and his pickup van to my pup, Otter, going at her pace until she was comfortable. Now, she rushes the front door as soon as she sees him or Mauricio show up in the morning. And while she doesn’t go on the walks, she comes home so happy after a day hanging out with the Doza’s team and the dogs. I don’t know what we’d do without them! Thank you Omar and team, we are so grateful.

Stumbling across Doza's Dogs' posting on a telephone pole was such a blessing! Ever since Arrow, our high-energy husky, started going on long walks with Doza's pack twice a week, it has been such a relief knowing that he's getting the quality exercise, socialization, and adventure that he needs. Love how Doza's handles all pickups/dropoffs and fills their day with activity, so on busy days I can still return home to an Arrow that's exhausted and content. He's a happier pup because of Doza's! Highly recommend.

This place is amazing!! The staff truly cares for the dogs. They are very responsive and so reasonably priced. They were so flexible and understanding as well. Maui & Moe came home so happy and tired after day care and boarding. Highly highly recommend!!

We travel for at least 1 month each year without our dog Lotus, so it is extremely important that there is a doggie day care and boarding facility that we can absolutely trust. That facility is Woofs and Wiggles, which we have been using for many years, both for Lotus and her predecessor Roxie. Woofs and Wiggles is a small family-run business, operated by the owner and a few staff members, all of whom seem to take great pride in what they do, and take great care of the dogs that are entrusted to them. The facility itself is clean and spacious, and the dogs are well looked after. Prices are reasonable. I could not ask for more.

This place is clean, affordable and has knowledgeable staff. I was gone from my pup for 2 days and was extremely happy with how he was taken care of. He has special needs, extreme hair loss because of stress from previous abuse, so his skin needed to have lotion applied to him every day. The staff went out of their way to make sure that it got done. The only downside was that I had to drive out of the way to get to them, but the drive was worth it because of the price and quality compared to some of the closer kennels to me didn’t match up.

Great doggie daycare that's just a few blocks from where I work. Owners, Johnny & Diane, are very friendly and easy going, and the staff are great with all the dogs. The staff live onsite, so there is someone there 24/7, which makes me feel better about boarding my guy, Grayson!

It was by pure accident that I have discovered an amazing daycare in Redwood City. Bottom line: incredibly kind, caring staff; very clean facility; very inexpensive. It is a small family business: the owner's name is Diane and she is assisted by her son Johnny. People: Diane and her staff took amazing care of our dog -- they know her by name, they went into a store to buy her favorite food when the food we left ran out, they pampered her throughout her stay there. They gave her as much love and attention as we do. Amazingly kind people, who took incredible care of our dog. Facility: very clean, with plenty of room for the dogs to run. Prices: I was slightly blown away at how inexpensive they are and how straightforward the pricing is. I hope this is helpful. Cheers!

My toy poodle is my first pet, so he is the baby of the house, especially for my autistic daughter. I came guided by google reviews and with doubts I brought my baby here for Pet Boarding. I’m SO grateful for the excellent care! The place is clean, they have the dogs separated by size, each one with its own mini playground and beds. The manager and assistants were very helpful. I recommend it !

We have four dogs, of whom the whole family loves! The biggest problem with having four dogs is that, while they are part of the family, they cannot go on all family trips or getaways. This being said it is very difficult and expensive to send your family to a place to board for any period of time. This being said, it is awesome to know that a place, like Woofs and Wiggles, is around. It's a pretty good drive for us to drop off our dogs at Woofs and Wiggles, yet we do so gladly knowing they will be well cared for with reasonable prices! The owners, Johnny and Dianne and all of the staff, know all of our dogs and treat them as they would their own. So I have no hesitation bringing my dogs here and leaving them. I also have no hesitation when recommending this place to anyone looking for a place to take their four legged family members! 5 stars from me!

Staff was friendly and prices were very reasonable, but I didn’t feel comfortable leaving my Frenchie here. It didn’t seem like the dogs had much supervision and the layout made it seem like it wouldn’t be suitable for very hot or cold days. I want my frenchie to have supervised care and attention 24/7, and I didn’t feel like this was the place for that.

My puppy loves it! I first tried Woofs and Wiggles because they allow puppies under 4 months and I'm so happy I found them. Johnny is great! My dog gets so excited whenever I bring her to daycare. It makes being away from her much easier, knowing that she's gonna have a great time. :)

Woofs and Wiggles is a great daycare located in a bit of an industrial neighborhood of Redwood City. Johnny and his staff are very caring people who obviously love dogs. My dog always has a great time here and comes home tired and happy.

My dog Storm absolutely loves them, she is always so exited to get in. The staff is super friendly and nice not just to the dogs, but to the owners too. They always send me photos and videos of Storm having a blast, and are always on top of everything.

I needed someone to take care of my two cats while I was away for a week, and the pet sitter I found was absolutely fantastic. The service provided was exceptional, with daily updates and photos of my fur babies. Their attention to detail and genuine love for animals shone through. The quality and value of this service exceeded my expectations.

We found the #1 doggie daycare in California! We recently moved across country and looked at every doggy daycare/day/pack adventures in the Bay Area and nothing compares to PTSM. Our Shiba Inu loves her "home" away from home and always runs into daycare without a second look back. From the moment we reached out to Tommy, he was very communicative and accommodating. He even got our dog to eat on a normal schedule (all you Shibe owners will understand), which no daycare has done before. The entire staff is amazing and truly loves getting to know the dogs. We've interacted with just about everyone and we get daily photos/videos of our dog playing from Christina, Amy, and Manolo. We can tell from the photos, the staff goes above and beyond to include our dog in the pack. We also use their dog transportation services and yes, our girl loves hanging out with Troy in the "bark bus." One thing we noticed right away is the facilities are so clean and there are comfy beds, blankets, toys for the dogs. A big bonus is they have a door that leads to an outdoor space and our Shibe loves to sunbathe outside. There is nowhere else we will send our dog unless they replicate PSTM - thank you to the best crew!

It is absolutely adorable how much they love my puppies, and how much my puppies love it there! Every weekday morning, Choco and Oreo head directly to the door as I'm getting ready, and run in when we arrive. Their happiness shows through the photos I receive throughout the day, and it makes my day seeing them happy!

Finding a good daycare is not easy. Amy and her team make us reassuring that our pup has a great time with great care!

Pet Sitting to the MAX is incredible. When my husband and I took our then 1-year old puppy to Pet Sitting four years ago, we did not know how much she would fall in love with the place and people, who have consistently treated her (and the spirited brother we acquired for her a year ago) like family despite her antics. The staff truly love animals, and it shines through. Very few things make my dogs happier than mentioning that we are taking them on a car ride to daycare, and Pet Sitting is one of the places we will miss most as we leave the Bay Area.

Amy and team are professional and go above and beyond! Outstanding service, care and love for my fur babies. My husband and I went our of town and for the first time hired outside help to come check on our 2 cats. Amy went above and beyond and provided excellent service: -vacuumed and tidied our place -changed cat liter -played with both cats -spent decent time in our apartment for each visit -gave my cats the love and attention they needed and rewarded them with some treats What I also appreciated was the updates when she did visit. Updates included pictures and video of the cats, as well as what she did while she was there. Truly professional and fantastic experience as well as great value for the price. Would 100% recommend amy and team and go through them again in the future.

Very friendly staff. My dog loves it here. He's a little old, but whenever I pick him up from here he's got a little spring in his step! The place is clean and they are always bugging me about my vaccinations, which means all the dogs are up to date so I always feel good about leaving my dog here.

Best daycare that we've found in California. Dogs play all day, unlike at Petsmart. Their 7am to 7pm hours are convenient for us. The staff is friendly and genuinely cares about your dog. Our dog hates the car, but gets really excited when he figures out that we're going to daycare.

We have used their services to house-sit our cat Faye when we were on vacation. Our sitter was timely and sent us regular updates. The whole experience was up to the mark.

We have now been using this service for the past year. Our dog walker is fabulous, and Lynda, who runs the business, is so responsive, friendly, and helpful. This service is completely reliable, and all of the pet walkers are great communicators and always show up ready to love on your fur baby.

We love Bay Area Pet Pals! We've been a customer for more than 6 years and have had two different, terrific dog walkers (one moved out of state) — both of them were/are reliable, trustworthy and adore our dog as much as we do. We've also used the owner Lynda's pet boarding services over the years, which have been a huge help. Lynda is caring, reliable, communicative, and treats our dog like one of her own. We always feel better having our dog stay with Lynda in a home environment rather than being boarded in a cage. Happy we found Lynda and Bay Area Pet Pals. Highly recommend!

Love this service, Lynda and her team are a breeze to work with. Once we figured out a schedule that worked, I've been consistently and exclusively booking my dog's walks at Bay Area Pet Pals.

We were so fortunate to find the services of Bay Area Pet Pals around 7 years ago!! The owner Lynda is an amazing pet lover!! BAPP has assisted us with daily walks for our girls Millie and Bella, as well as boarding over the years. If you are looking for top notch 5 star service when it comes to walks or boarding for your pooch BAPP is the place!!! A pic of Bella enjoying herself while we were away on vacation!! : )

Bay Area Pet Pals has earned my trust and business! The owner (Lynda) of Bay Area Pet Pals was responsive to all my emails while I was inquiring and searching for a pet sitter. Lynda was extremely helpful in ensuring me that her team was experienced and accountable for services provided. I am so grateful and happy that I found Bay Area Pet Pals. Brandy was excellent and took great care of Rue (my cat) while I was away. I received a text update from Brandy on Rue which I was very happy about as it put me at ease. She even sent me pictures of Rue :). I am excited to have a trusted team that I can continue to use for pet sitting in the near future. Bay Area Pet Pals is awesome. I definitely feel that they are a team of loving, trained caregivers for peoples fur-babies!

We have been using Lynda’s services for more than a year now and they are fantastic. Cassie has been our dog walker and she was always perfect, on time and best of all, our 2 monsters (English Cocker spaniels) love her. We also had them sitting Canoowie and Lola for a week when we had an emergency trip!!!! Heidi stayed in our place giving them all the attention and always keeping us informed on how they were. We truly recommend Bay Area Pet Pals!

We have been using Lynda/Bay Area Pet Pals for at least 7 years as our petsitter for our 2 little dogs whenever we are out of town or need for other reasons. There is no one else I would trust as much as Lynda to take care of them. Her place is like their home away from home, and she treats and loves them as her own. And they get happily excited when they see her. Lynda has also had to give one of our dogs medication every day while we were gone, and she followed through with no problem. My husband and I highly recommend Bay Area Pet Pals to take excellent care of your pets. For us, it's peace of mind that our two dogs are in good hands while we're gone.

I’ve been using Bay Area Pet Pals (BAPP) for as long as I’ve had my dog (10+ years) and there is absolutely no other dog boarding service nor individual that I would trust to provide as outstanding a level of expertise with kind loving care as BAPP and Lynda. Lynda is experienced, professional yet personable and I have complete peace of mind and trust her implicitly whenever I leave my dog in her care. In fact, all my vacations are always scheduled with her availability in mind. I truly can’t imagine a pet care provider who could be any better.

Bay Area Pet Pals have been a godsend for me. We were new to the Bay area 3 years ago and I didn't have the family I normally relied on to watch my cats. On top of that one of my cats is diabetic and the other has chronic kidney disease. I'm a Veterinary Technician so finding the right people to watch my cats was critical and boarding them just stresses them out. I reached out to Lynda and was super impressed by her business model and the care takers she hires. You give her a lot of information about your pets and that really eased my mind that she cares about them. She is upfront about what she needs from the pet owner so there are no issues while you are gone. I travel a lot and Alisse and Kim and absolutely phenomenal! They give my diabetic cat her insulin and Alisse was even willing to learn to give fluids to my old gal. They spend quality time with them and are in constant communication with me via text or email. You do pay for the service but the peace of mind I get leaving my cats in their care is worth it to me. I highly recommend them!

Heather was awesome! We have a very shy cat but after a few days they were best friends. This company is legit. They scheduled a meet-and-greet and had thorough information forms to make sure the sitter isn't locked out and any specific needs the pet had. Will be booking again for future trips!

Matt and his team have been wonderful to my 2 year-old GSP. She is high energy, so the 2 days a week that she goes with Matt has been a life-saver for me. My dog is able to get her exercise and social time in while I get a lot of work done. A win for both of us. She is excited to see him every time and comes home fulfilled from her activity. She has also boarded with Matt and did very well. Matt takes great care of all the dogs and treats them like his own. I highly recommend him if you're looking for dependable, quality dog services.

Matt and Pawfection are the best! Matt has walked and cared for my two German Shorthaired Pointers for more hours than I can count over the years. On top of walking and looking after the pups, Matt provides great training advice and helped me work through one dog’s separation anxiety. Matt is super-aware of the dogs health conditions and will work with you and your vet on treatment, etc… if your pup is having a health issue. Can’t recommend highly enough!

My golden retriever has the absolute best time with Matt and Joseph at daycare! He’s always so excited to see them and waits for them in the window. We’ve also boarded him with Matt as we wouldn’t trust anyone else to handle our high energy pup, Matt is professional, knows what he’s doing and is a dog guy!

Matt has been taking care of our three Vizslas since they were puppies. He is so great with our dogs and they just love him. I never worry when they are with Pawfection Pet Care. Everyone on Matt’s team is exceptional!!!

I credit Pawfection with how happy and well socialized Bobby, our 75-lb brindle mix, is and continues to be. Bobby has been in daycare (play and/or hiking) with Matt and his team 5 days/week for the past 6+ years. He also boards with Pawfection at least a few times a year when we go on vacations where we can't bring him. We initially chose Pawfection because of its convenient pickup/dropoff service, but have remained loyal clients because of the high quality care and genuine love of dogs that Matt and his team provide. After all these years, Bobby is still excited when the Pawfection van pulls up, and we are thrilled that he has somewhere safe to play and socialize while we are working.

Matt has been caring for our dog, Fallon, since she was a few months old, and she just turned 5. Matt genuinely loves the dogs, and they love him! I never worry when Fallon is with Matt, as I know she probably feels like she’s on vacation. She is always so happy to see him! Matt is reliable, trustworthy, flexible and truly goes above and beyond, helping with anything you might need from training, advice, assistance with vet treatments, etc. I highly recommend Pawfection!

Matt and his team have been so great for our vizsla Sedona. She absolutely loves spending her days with Pawfection. I highly recommend pawfection over any of the large competitors in the area (I’ve tried them all.)

We love Pawfection Pet Care!! please keep in mind like most dog owners, we are extremely careful with our French Bulldogs- it takes a lot to entrust your pups to anyone and Matt is wonderful! He is extremely responsible and we have always felt that our dogs were safe and happy. Matt is a dog whisperer but also firm enough to not allow any misbehaving. Our older Frenchie was having some issues at first about eating and Matt kept us updated with progress/status reports every time- we didn't ask for that, but it's just the kind of person he is. we have also noticed our dogs have become much more social and better mannered with other dogs after spending time with Matt. Five stars, thumbs up, all of it. Matt and Pawfection are the best!!

Matt has been looking after my Alaskan Klee Kei a few times a week for almost 5 years and I couldn’t be happier with how it’s been. Tuxedo is always happy to be picked up for his adventures and is excited to go for walks with his friends!

Matt & team have been taking care of our golden-doodle for a year now and we can't recommend Pawfection Pet Care enough! When we initially reached out to Matt, he was intentional about making sure that our dog meshed with all the other dogs in the pack, which made us feel extra confident in her safety. Our girl sprints to the door for pick up and always comes back tired and happy - Matt may be her favorite person on this planet. Pawfection is extremely trustworthy, professional, and cares immensely for each dog in their care, from pickup/dropoff to boarding while we are away on vacation. We never worry when Daisy is in Pawfection's care. Thank you Matt & team!

We recently used the spa services at Wag Hotels for our two golden retrievers, and we couldn’t be happier with the experience! The team did an amazing job—our dogs came back happy, squeaky clean, and perfectly dried. The entire process was smooth from start to finish. Booking was simple, and check-in and check-out were quick and efficient. It’s clear they genuinely care about the pets in their care. We’ll definitely be using their services again. Highly recommend!

I am really impressed by the staff at Wag. We’ve been taking our dog here for about three years. Everyone we have met has been outstanding. It is more expensive than some of the other places we previously tried, but the quality of attention and care is absolutely worth it. We have a rescue dog who can be very timid around strangers. The staff at Wag has always been warm, kind, and caring with him. They remember him by name when we bring him in and treat him as if he was their own. Most importantly, our dog has opened up and now greets the staff as people he trusts.

Hi! I’ve been taking my dog to Wag for the past 6 months and I am truly grateful I found this place. Everyone is so kind, helpful, and great with my dog 🐕. I want to give a shout out to Miracle and Taryn. Super sweet and I enjoy sharing stories of our dogs together. Keep up the positive caring crew for our fur babies. My dog looks forward to her play dates there wagging tail and all!! ☺️ Best, Julie 😃

We have been taking our dog to Wag Hotel in Redwood City for years. They take excellent care of our dog. Earlier this year, our dog had an emergency health problem. We were promptly called, but were in flight and didn’t get the call until we landed. Our dog was taken to a local animal hospital for treatment. We were kept informed the whole time and felt like she was in excellent hands so we didn’t have to immediately return home. All was good in the end, she was given antibiotics and returned to Wag where they gave our dog her medication exactly as the vet instructed them to. Overall we have been very happy with Wag’s professionalism and kindness.

I only book with Wag, and they never disappoint! Owning a Great Dane means I need a sitter who can handle his size and personality, and the team at Wag is absolutely amazing. They go above and beyond to ensure my dog is well cared for, providing plenty of love, exercise, and attention. I always receive updates and photos, which give me peace of mind while I’m away. If you’re looking for reliable and caring pet care, I highly recommend Wag!

The wag hotel in redwood City provides an adequate service. They seem to really care about the animals and provide photos when you're away. I gave instructions for him not to play with other dogs and not to let him play with any other toys except for the two that I provided. (He has been sick in the past so I didn't want him exposed). One of the photos they sent me was with another toy in his mouth. The second criticism I have is the cost. My boy was there for less than 36 hours and it was astronomical in price. For 36 hours of boarding. And one 20 minute ball session for each day cost me over $250. Just ridiculous. Unfortunately, I will have to find an alternative for next time I'm out of town.

I'm new to Wag Redwood City and so far our experience has been positive. Our pups appear to be well cared for, the employees are well trained and appear to genuinely care for pets. I've found the employees to be transparent and informative in communicating even on the rare occasion someone has gotten it wrong, which we appreciate. Thank you to the Wag Redwood City staff. We appreciate the service you provide and the calming classical music played in the lobby...no doubt a good thing for pets and humans alike.

This is a great facility for taking care of dogs when your work or life expects you to travel without your dogs. We have only used overnight stays and not day boarding. We have left our dogs at length about 5-7 days and they have come back home safe and happy. I do think private rooms are better equipped to take care of dogs. The staff are courteous and they take time to respond with relevant and appropriate messages when we usually call back to check on pets.

Close miss on a 5 star review, here is our breakdown. We will board again at Redwood City Wag. It was clean, the staff up front was super friendly and seemed to know what they were doing. It was organized and geared towards our pets. There was even a cute welcome sign for our dogs at the front door when we showed up. Overall our dogs were given food each meal time and their treats we left them in each meal bag. They did have water too. We did receive our photo memories of the dogs each day so we know they were taken out for their Specialized Care time. The cameras worked and never stopped working so we had constant access to see them while in their room. We also received report cards on each dog about their stay. They had a grooming appointment the day before their stay so we passed on the complimentary grooming that was included in the package we chose. But, both dogs came home clean. Their room was clean the whole stay of 7 days. They called us promptly when they noticed the appetite was low for both dogs and asked if they could add a topper to entice them to eat. We have zero qualms about their care and services for the dogs. Here is the dock in one star We boarded our two large dogs here because they had an ultra suite available and we wanted a larger space for them to be in while we were out of town for 8 days. We originally were booked at the Santa Clara location but we could not get them the ultra suite. The largest room they had available was big enough comfortably for one large dog. So we switched last minute to the Redwood City location purely for that reason. Both our dogs are rescues with horrible start to life backgrounds so we knew giving them extra comfort and keeping them together was a key to their stay here so they did not feel dumped. They each had their toy they loved and their night time milk bone with no problems or objections from Wag. Where our only issue is was when we arrived we asked to see the room they were in. Not a tour, just walk back with them to say bye. We wanted this because we know how sensitive our dogs are to our leaving and this was the first time boarding them anywhere (normally they stay with family). We were quickly rejected by the site supervisor to our request - just cold and curt. It didn’t sit well for the money we were spending to board them there- but on a more personal standpoint, the customer service from her specifically made the difference here from a five star to a four star review. This was also for our own comfort as we were going to be out of state, it was our first time boarding our Dog's and far enough away that we couldn’t get to them quickly if needed. (We did have an emergency contact on file if anything happened.) We were the only drop off in the lobby and staff was able to retrieve and send home two other dogs from the play area quickly while we were there getting checked in. A totally separate individual came out to take our dogs back to their room and both our dogs were trying to stay with us instead of going in the back. He was kind and gentle with the dogs but us walking them back would have made all parties more at ease. It was stressful for our dogs and us, their/our trip could have started off much differently and better than it did. This put their staff in an unnecessary and uncomfortable position. Regardless of the situation that didn’t allow us to walk back with them, it could have been handled better from their own leadership on site. When you are running a pet hotel it should be obvious that you are working with families that value their pets and treat them as family. No one wants to start their boarding experience with their dogs fighting to not go in the back. That extra minute of conversation and understanding or walking them back instead of seeing them fight not to go would have been the chef’s kiss. We would recommend and stay again at Wag Redwood City.

Everything went well during my dog’s first stay at Wag. She was happy to trot right in at drop off so I had a good feeling about it from the start. The staff in Redwood City is friendly, professional, accommodating and they love dogs! Thank you for taking such good care of my dog.

We have been bringing our pup, Spiritt, for a year and a half. Initially, she was shy and needed more socialization. We couldn't be happier with how she has blossomed! The facilities are well maintained, the staff is caring and attentive (they once called to let us know about a minor health problem they observed which we greatly appreciated) and we feel very comfortable leaving her at Sweet Doggies for daycare as well as extended overnight stays. She is always excited to see her pup pals! Additionally, when we pick her up, the staff is kind enough to provide updates on her day and the pup friends she plays with. We also appreciate the social media updates and photos they routinely post as well as the opportunity to observe her on their live video feed. Heartfelt "thank you!" to Abby, Na, Evan and the entire Sweet Doggies team! You are first rate!

We usually send our dog to Santa clara location but send him for boarding here at Sunnyvale. I love that I can see him through camera. The boarding reservation and application process is smooth and easy. The staff are kind and nice. My dog loves it here!

Absolutely the best dog daycare in the United States. I, and my dog best bud, are lucky to be clients at Sweet Doggies, and each day they just keep on getting better. There is no other dog daycare and boarding as superb as Sweet Doggies. My dog and I are lucky and so grateful to be clients of theirs.

While staying in San Jose for a month we took advantage of the day care option for our toy Aussie. We found Sweet Doggies to always be clean, kind, and friendly. The staff are sweet - just like the doggies. The dogs are all small and there weren’t too many so our Aussie didn’t get as overwhelmed as he has in day care at home with lots of dogs. We also like to be able to view on line during the day. We will definitely keep using Sweet Doggies.

We love this place. My one dog has been a regular since 2012 or so. My newer rescue has also been a regular since 2016. Daycare helped my dogs be more social and stay busy and gives me peace of mind with long commuting or work days. The staff is always willing to accommodate any needs and take good care of the dogs in general. The crate free and no bark ambience is low stress. They have webcams also we see whenever our dogs are boarding. Great people and service

Sweet Doggies is the best! My pup loves going there to play with his friends. I always get stories about his day when I pick him up.

Sweet Doggies is the best!! We adopted our first dog recently and she has a lot of fears around new people and dogs. The staff have really supported and accepted her. They now regularly send us videos of her playing with other dogs and it makes us so happy! We have taken our dog there for workdays, a weekend, and a 9-day trip so far. You can tell this place is filled with so much love and genuine care. And they have an awesome Instagram account with wonderfully silly posts everyday.

We LOVE Sweet Doggies!! Our dog has been going to Sweet Doggies for almost 2 years now. The staff is super friendly and so is the owner, Evan.. The staff treats our dog like family. Super attentive! They post on IG, send videos. Our dog goes to both locations but mostly Sunnyvale as it’s closer to work and our home. When we travel we would never entrust anyone to take care of her but Sweet Doggies! Our dog is super happy and she loves going to Sweet Doggies!

I can't believe in the span of 7 years and 2 dogs, both of them went to Sweet Doggies and always had a wonderful experience. My first dog Ellie went around 2015 until she got sick and they were so understanding that we couldn't finish the day care package. A few years later we got another rescue pup and since Ellie was a member, her membership was grandfathered over so Teddy did not have to wait on their very busy wait list. He goes once a week and loves the staff and dogs there. Every time we see him post day care he is so pooped out. I love the attention the staff gives including regulating play times and even those security cameras where you can see what is going on. I love their transparency and what they stand for as a great dog day care facility. Thank you to the SD team! <3

We used Sweet Doggies when my fiance and I went out of town for a weekend to give them a trial run and were very pleased with our experience. They run doggie boarding very differently than most typical boarding places. The dogs are never caged - they are each given their own little living quarters that is gated off in an area. They also get to all play together during the day which is nice. I thought that the staff was really nice and open with us. The one complaint that I have is that I feel like their billing system is a little iffy. They have very strict pick up and drop off times, which makes sense from a business standpoint, but I thought in some cases the pricing was unfair. Then again, they do have an amazing deal where you get free daycare for your dog to test them out in the beginning. Also, I really don't have a strong comparison point since this is my first dog since I've become a real person who pays real bills.. so I may just have gone into it with unrealistic expectations. Overall, the service and experience that our dog had won us over. We plan on using Sweet Doggies for our boarding needs from this point forward. :)

Danielle is super professional and took great care of my four cats for two weeks! Everyday she sent me an update about my babies wellbeing and pics, she answered all my messages really fast. I used to leave my cats at pet hotels when we travelled, but my cats loved staying in the house, it was less stressful for all of us. I saved her contact for future trips, because it was really comforting to know she was here to take good care of my cats.

I have been using Danielle’s services for many years and trust my pets are in good hands with her! I have a senior dog and a cat with diabetes and she is able to give them all of their medication without any issues! She is reliable and knows how to care for animals in a professional and caring way. She also has great advice and recommendations so I can better care for my animals when asked. Her services are exceptional and she goes above and beyond for each animal. She developed a deep connection with each of my animals so I feel most comfortable leaving them in her care. It puts me and my pets at ease knowing she is caring for then when I am away or in need!

My two Chihuahuas have stayed with Danielle a few times now and I've always felt they were in the best hands! Twyla has some resource guarding tendencies which Danielle is skilled in handling. And my old man Wilson has kidney disease which gives him poor appetite but he always eats for Danielle. I would absolutely recommend!!

Four Paws is great. They are very caring and professional. Our dog had an emergency surgery and was on medications. We needed someone with experience and also knowledgeable about after care surgery since we couldn’t cancel an important trip. A very difficult situation for us and even though our dog was stable and was already 7 days since the surgery we were worried. We found Four Paws on line. We met with Danielle and Bianca and Immediately felt confident leaving our doggie with them. Danielle kept us informed about our dog’s progress and the medications intake. Danielle made especial arrangements the first few days to accommodated our dog’s needs and to make her feel comfortable and safe!. We will forever be grateful with them for helping us during that emergency situation. After that event we had left our dog a couple of times with Danielle and Bianca and each time it has been a great experience , our doggie is happy and We finally go on trips with a peace of mind !!!

I am so grateful to have found Danielle a little over a year ago! My 9 year old Pomeranian, Wally, has many medical conditions and Danielle is the only person I trust to leave him with. He has a thyroid issues, collapsing trachea, allergies and had a recent knee surgery. I needed someone with medical experience above a day to day walker who would be able to check in on him and make sure he was ok when at work (and let me know!). After knee surgery he still wanted to get out and about and Danielle walked him around the neighborhood in his stroller - he loved it! I've also used Danielle for overnights and Wally had a blast. He can be difficult with taking medications and picky with food and Danielle handled it with ease (and got him to eat!!!!!). I can truly relax on vacation knowing he's safe and taken care of. Recently Danielle has offered doggy daycare and these are some of Wally's most fun days. He always comes home happy and tired!!! I can honestly say Wally is a happier and healthier dog because of Danielle - I highly recommend her services!

Danielle has been a fantastic pet sitter! She is always responsive and has gone the extra mile to take great care of our cat while we’re away, spending quality time with her and administering medications whenever needed. She sends us photos with each visit so we know that our cat is doing well. I highly recommend Danielle to anyone, especially those whose pets have health conditions and need extra care. Thank you, 4 Paws!

We had Danielle at 4 Paws watch our dog while we were on vacation. He is very nervous with new people and we were worried about leaving him with just anyone. I knew as soon as we dropped him off that we made the right choice to leave him with Dani. We received photos while we were away updating us on his status and could see that he was having a great time with her and the other pets in her care. By the time we got back he was so comfortable with them I know I’ll be using them again in the future. Five stars all the way!! I’d recommend them to anyone needing care for special needs animals or just for a doggie play date. We enjoyed our vacation so much more knowing our baby was safe and happy.

Danielle has taken care of our dogs and cat a number of times and has been very responsive and professional in every situation. Our animals are always excited to see her, which shows she has positive relationships with them. She meticulously follows our pets’ dietary regimens and I highly recommend her. Rest assured your expectations will be met or exceeded.

We are so happy to have found 4Paws Pro Care in Santa Clara! Our mini doodle has stayed with 4Paws (Danielle Mores) for extended stays while we had to be away (and a couple of times for daycare). You couldn’t ask for a better experience or better care. Our pup is so comfortable with them that when we arrive she runs in like she is home! We really appreciate their focus on security and chemistry with the other dogs. It is a positive, enriching environment:) Danielle keeps us updated regularly while we are away. And it is a comfort that Danielle has a background as a registered veterinary technician. She has also been flexible when we have had schedule changes. 4Paws is our pup’s home away from home :):)

Danielle has been a great and reliable sitter for our 3 cats! She has looked after our cats many times. She is the first person we contact to drop in with our cats when we need to go out of town. We would definitely recommend Danielle to care for your pets!

Ry The Pet Guy and his dog walkers are life-savers! I adopted my 3rd rescue over the pandemic, a year old German Shepherd with a lot of energy, and finding Ry has been such a relief. He gets picked up twice a week by Gabe who takes him for his pack walk and even works with him on behavioral issues. He sends spectacular photos of their pack walks and video of how to continue the training exercises. Gabe goes above and beyond to connect with the dogs. Best of all, when we board all 3 dogs, they love him and the rest of Ry's crew and come home happy and relaxed. Absolutely top service for dog care!

Ry The Pet Guy and his team have made our trips abroad much less stressful! We know that our precious little dog is safe, cared for and relaxed while he is with Ry. All the staff are very attentive and send us pictures of our wee pup while we are away. Ry and his staff provide a calm environment for all of the dogs. We trust Ry and his team for not only walks but longer stays too. Our dog comes home happy and pampered!

Highly recommend Ry and his wonderful team for daycare, training, and boarding! We love Gabe who takes our big boy Jerry (far left in photo) out with a dog group three days a week. Jerry loves his time with his paw pals!

Stellar service!! There’s a reason why Ry The Pet Guy has a solid 5 stars reviews! Getting a dog sitter can be a very stressful thing. We are so lucky to have found Ry and company to take the best care of our fur babies and we are no longer stressed about leaving our fur babies behind while on a trip. Ry is attentive, caring and communication is on point. It is obvious that he has a TON of experience taking care of dogs and being attentive to each and every dog under his care. Our fur babies love him and are always so excited to see Ry. It’s a win win! Don’t waste your time and book with Ry The Pet Guy. You won’t be disappointed 👍👍

We absolutely love the service. Ryland is very reliable as are his staff. Our dog loves all of the walkers and we even get gifts from Ryland at Christmas time which a lovely touch. Highly Recommended!

Ry and team are so thoughtful with their dog care. This is the *ONLY* dog boarding place where our pup gets excited to go with them - all other places we've tried, our pup gets scared and nervous, breaks your heart as a dog mom! Instead, when Ry and his guys show up, our little girl cannot wait to jump in and head off to a weekend with her friends - did I mention they pick up your pup too? So convenient! Better still, Ry takes magazine quality photos and will send them to you while you're away from your beloved pup. Are they the least expensive option? Of course not, but the quality of care, the love they show these dogs, and the piece of mind of knowing our girl is well cared for while we're away makes it completely worth it. Thank you, Ry and team!

We've been using Ry The Pet Guy for over 2 years and have nothing but great things to say about them! Our dog (the one on the far left) goes 3 days a week, and has boarded with them for long weekends and extended stay when we have been out of town. Our dog loves the entire staff and has no problem being away. Gabe has been picking-up/returning her, and our dog can't wait to go in the morning! Gabe lets us know the 30 min slot he will be coming, and sends us daily photos. He is friendly and delightful to work with and we trust him to leave our dog inside if we are not at home. He also does some obedience training!

I would highly recommend Ry the Pet guy. Our original plan of care from a dog sitter fell through at last minute and our pup (Frenchie) has never been away from us. So I was a little nervous about leaving him but Ry and his staff were super warm and welcoming with Stitch. He was so excited and doing zoomies on the property when we arrived. He is a huge ball of energy so I was curious how he would do there. Throughout the 3 days we received daily updates on Stitch and pictures of his walks and adventures. It was such a good feeling to be reassured he was happy, well cared for and having a great time with other dogs. We will definitely be using their boarding services again. Stitch definitely felt the love! Thanks Ry and staff.

If you're looking for a trustworthy and caring place to leave your dog, look no further than RTPG. As someone who had never left my dog alone, I was understandably nervous about leaving him in the care of strangers. But from the moment I dropped off my pup, Indy, I knew he was in good hands. The team at RTPG are true dog whisperers, and had Indy comfortable and happy from day one. Throughout my trip overseas, they kept me updated with pictures of Indy on epic walks with his new friends, and I could see from his eyes that he was having the time of his life. They even helped Indy overcome his fear of bigger dogs, and gave me tips on how to be the best owner possible. When I picked Indy up, he was better adjusted than when I left him, and eager to return to RTPG. Their facilities are spotless, they come and pick up your pupper and drop him off for daycare as well. Overall, I can't recommend RTPG and their team enough. They truly care about the dogs in their care and go above and beyond to ensure they have a great experience. If you're looking for a place where your dog can be safe, happy, and have an adventure, look no further than Ry The Pet Guy.

Ryland and his team are amazing! They take such good care of my fur baby, Harry, who can be an odd ball, and frankly, a handful. They understand dog behavior so well, and give my dog so much love and attention. He gets so excited when he knows that he is going to stay the weekend with Ry and team. Ryland has also done extensive behavioral training to be a trusted dog trainer. His passion for learning new tools and approaches impressed me, and made me feel at ease when I first began using him. I am so grateful to Ry the Pet Guy and team for being part of our pack and trusted caretakers. 11 out of 10 recommend!!
