Dog Boarding near Alameda, CA

We are pretty chill folks who enjoy hanging out with our dog Bailey. She is a lovable lapdog and wants to be with people all the time. She is very soft and cuddly, and also a bit timid of other dogs on walks but plays well with others in controlled environments. We are two adults and two teens.

Boogie loves a snuggle! 4 yr. Old Labrador loves people and dogs! Sweet boy! Likes to sleep on couch and bed!

Grace is very sweet and affectionate and eager to please. She’s a service dog in training - not ready for public access as she’s learning not to bark and not to jump on people and to heel on the leash among other things. She is high energy and LOVES the dog park. To run and play with other dogs.

We’ve recently adopted Finn and are impressed by his good behavior! He doesn’t bark except occasionally when he hears strangers at the door, is impeccably house trained, and very docile and obedient. We are mostly home and are mostly interested in an occasional walk or two for him in the middle of the day. We do have a kitty who does not love large dogs. If they are small (ie short) she will tolerate/ignore them as little mg as they don’t chase her or invade “her” domains.

I am a single 80s baby with a 9 year old 90lb sweetie of a malinois/bloodhound mix. We’re both chill

Lula is a happy 2yr old cavapoo who loves playing and running with other doggies or cuddling with humans! Very loving and sweet and rarely barks. He loves going on long walks but is just as happy to have lazy days on the couch. Get ready to fall in love!

Hi WoofyClub family! This is an official WoofyClub account we’re using to organize neighborhood romps. Check out our latest requests for upcoming events!

I currently work from home so I get to hang with my favorite coworker, Donut. He is a big snuggle bug who is highly motivated by treats. He loves playing with other dogs and we tend to go on a lot to paired walks. Since I have flexibility with my work schedule, I’m happy to watch other pups during the day as well.

Just downloaded this app looking to connect with other dog parents and build a community

Miso is extremely playful and friendly to all dogs and people. She’s got a great personality and is a Cavachon which is Cavalier King Charles Spaniel and Bichon Frise.

Hello, my name is Luka, and I am a standard size goldendoodle. I am medium energy, and get along well with children and most other dogs. I am starting to get a bit of arthritis in my hips and elbows now, so I'm usually napping in the sun for most of the day. I love obedience, belly rubs, and playing with humans

Hi! We live in Alameda with two young kiddos and Ollie our Sheepadoodle. We have a fenced in backyard and front patio we hang in a lot and also do lots of walks around the neighborhood.

Two adults a four year old. Dog must be very good with hyper toddlers and love to play. Small dog would be ideal.

I’m a single gay man that loves his dog. We love to travel and we go on trips together often - both locally and to the East Coast, where I grew up. Kingsley is a 20 lbs (give or take - he’s actually 17 lbs now) Longhaired Chihuahua/Spaniel mix that I adopted on his 1st birthday. I live in a large apartment with a common backyard and are regulars at the Alameda Small Dog Park off 8th Street.

I am open to both hosting in my apartment and at other houses. Harlow gets along with dogs of all sizes. Although she’s 5 she still loves to play.

Eloise “Ellie” Honey Chan is a 2 year old rescue that was in a prior terrible unsafe home environment. My best friend and her husband in LA rescued her from previous owner and cleaned her up. She had really long nails, fleas, and matted hair like a mop with pee and poop stuck on her. Once she was healthy enough, she started asking around for peeps interested in giving her a special home due to her circumstances. She already have two Maltipoos in a 2B2B. She came to me first cause I’m a Godmom to her puppos and knew I’ve been wanting to care for a dog since my 19 year old Pom passed in Oct 2022. My partner, Bill, and I foster failed Eloise on March 16th, 2023 and we’ve been inseparable ever since. I have been going through a rough time medically since Christmas 2022 with debilitating pain that’s been unmanageable and Eloise brought the light back into my eyes. Her eyes are Honey like the sunrise ergo her middle name. I would say I’m the Alpha and Bill is the Secondary Officer, but Ellie is super smart and sometimes decides to be a daddy’s girl fairly often. I get scolded often for treating her like a baby and holding her like a baby. Eloise is highly intelligent, loves cat naps, free runs on the beach, and one on one off-leash time with other puppos in an open safe park. She does not do well in large dog parks or car rides. She often gets overwhelmed when there are alot of dogs around her and becomes shy and won’t play. If a big dog park has <10-12 dogs, give her 30min and she should begin interacting with others. The only thing that comforts her in the car is having the window down, whether she is buckled in or on your lap sticking her head out of the window. We would love to talk more about your pup(s) and have a meet and greet prior so feel free to reach out to us.

Hi I’m Angeline and my husband Brett are dog parents to Teddy our pomsky. We live in a townhome in alameda with parks nearby all walking distance. Teddy is still a puppy.

Hello! We are a family of 2 adults, 1 baby (<1 year), and 1 friendly corgi named Dexter. Dexter loves other adults and other dogs. Although he loves his baby brother, I think my school age nieces may have traumatized him so he may or may not be skittish around older children. Other than that, he is always full of energy and down to play, and is a huge goofball.

Bentley is an easy going, Formosan Mountain Dog mix. He's great with kids (we have a 2 year old and infant) and gets along with other dogs and people. He loves walks but is chill at home and likes to relax. Bentley is also house trained.

I have 2 great dogs that are really well socialized and pretty low key at home. Mazie is deaf, so I always have her on leash when outside the home. Scout is 13 and loves napping and casual walks. My house doesn’t have a yard so we take lots of daily walks around Alameda. I currently work from home so the dogs are rarely alone.

When people say humans look like their dogs it couldn’t be more true than with Winston and I. Both blondes who don’t like being woken up and will perform spins for food.

Hi, I’m Zac! I live in Alameda with my wife Kelly and our teenage son. We have two pets, Ciara (pronounced Kira) and a cat, Sadie. We live a quiet suburban life in Alameda in a home with a fenced in yard. I take the dog on walks along the water, around the neighborhood. Sometimes we go up to Briones or Albany Bulb for some off leash time. There’s a dog park about a 10 minute walk from here.

My sweet Millie loves children the most! She’s potty trained and does and she really thinks she’s a human.

My boyfriend and I have rented this house for 12 years now, and it has a great backyard for entertaining. You would have access to the main bedroom, and all common spaces, but the two offices would be closed. AT&T Fiber high-speed wi-fi internet is available and large 50" screen TV in the living room with lots of streaming services is available. Plenty of room in the driveway for your car, and usually street parking is not a problem. If you need a car, you can borrow the Honda Fit. Our neighbors to our right are a lovely family and can be available if any issues come up our landlord lives on the island too so we will give you his info if there are any problems. We have an older, but anxious Border Collie dog (14 yrs old, neutered male), that needs daily walks and ball throws in the backyard. Ideally, you would be responsible for his care while we are away and free to use the house as your own.

Mochi and I love dogs and traveling. Sometimes we get to travel together, but sometimes we can't ☹️. We'd love to find a family to stay with for those trips. And we're happy to host other hypoallergenic dogs in the same situation!

We’re a family that regularly fosters dogs for rescues, so our resident very good boy is very accommodating and socialized. He’s very chill indoors, preferring to lounge around. He lives with kids and plenty of other animals, is low (very low) shed and quiet.

I’m retired but lead an active life. Buddy is an affectionate boy that lives his walkies!

Playful puppy, cuteness overload. Lives with small cat who can stand up for herself and enjoys playing chase with him.

We’re based in Alameda and love to travel but also love our dog and want what’s best for him. We live in a childfree home but max has been around kids his whole life. He’s so gentle and loves other dogs. We go to the dog park and on walks daily. He’s super chill at home and just overall the best.

Guinness is 8 years old and our best fur pup. He joined our family at 3 months old from Family Dog Rescue in SF and he loves walks around alameda and just to be by our side. He sleeps in our room on his bed or with our cat Bailey. He uses a Gentle Leader when walking to decrease how much he pulls, but is one solid love bug.

Nervous but Sweet. I was a feral puppy displaced (or possibly born in the aftermath of) the Paradise fire. I lived my first few months of life in fending for myself in the wilderness until I was rescued by a shelter and eventually my super cool parents! I’m still learning, and scared of things I don’t understand, but what I DO KNOW is that I DONT like children,runners, cats, bikes, the dark, and people holding sticks. I go to the dog park 2x a day with my big sister Pepper and we are the best of friends. I’m part husky so I like to sometimes talk a lot, but also, I mostly just like to snuggle. If I stay with you, please be patient with me because I’m just a gal with big feelings trying to figure out what’s safe in the world. I like to be spoken to softly until I get to know you, then I’m your best gal! Hope to meet you soon! Xx, Hazel

We are adventurous souls, love travel, hikes, woods, beaches and good food.

Hi Everyone! My name is Mir and my daughter and I live in Alameda Bay Farm. I work in Tech and mostly from home. We love Westies and Max is our new pup! He’s 4 months old and he is very playful and smart, loves his toys, celery sticks, watching Bluey and doing zoomies! He’s crate-trained and learning potty training (he needs to be taken out every hour or so), and he is also still learning to walk properly.

Hi, we live in Alameda with two young children and Rambo. Rambo is 13 years old and is very chill. He likes to go for a morning walk and then sleeps most of the day. He is active and likes to go on car rides and be outside and go walking when we are outside but he is also comfortable cuddling at home. He is very low maintenance but you do have to make sure no food is within his paws’ reach. He’ll find it and eat it!

Love dogs. Maisel is very shy and does better with small dogs.

Two corgis: Rory (8yrs) and Piper (8mos) Rory is calm and quiet while Piper is a typical rowdy puppy still learning things in life 😜

I am my furry friend’s human. He is the king of our castle. He is my baby and most loyal companion. I think that says all about me

Hello, fellow dog lovers! We are a small family of four, Dad, Mom, teen son, and furbaby. We've had dogs in the family for nearly our entire lives and love the joy and happiness they bring. We welcome most all dogs, but our home works best with the indoor variety, as our yard is small. We look forward to meeting other families as we understand both the positives and the negatives of traveling with pets and hope to use this network to assist our family trips as well.

Zoey is friendly with other dogs and people. She usually will nap during the day, but loves her afternoon walks!

Hi! My family and I live in Alameda with our dog, Artoo. We travel from time to time and sometimes for 2-3 weeks at a time. We understand the costs of boarding a pet and look forward to connecting!

My 3-year-old Chi-Weenie (I think?) loves to run and play. She was found roaming the streets of Oakland January 2022, but was fully potty trained, fixed, and understands commands. She’s named after the Schitt’s Creek character, Stevie Budd, because of her brown hair and strong side-eye. We live in an apartment which may not be ideal for us to take a big dog; however we are happy to watch someone’s dog at their home or park.

Ellie is a 2 year old Maltipoo rescue. She is friendly and social, gets along great with our 15-year old Labrador Retriever and the kittens and cats we are currently fostering for the humane society. She loves fetch, loves people, loves other dogs, and is pretty easy. She is house trained, and goes out every 3-4 hours. She has no health issues.

Hi, would love to dog-share! Open to short swaps during the day, overnights or longer. Not available to start until August sorry!

Tommy is an adorable Labradoodle who would love a occasional play date

My dog is a 1 year old neutered American Leopard Hound named Augie. He's very playful and loves other dogs who also like to play or is really mellow and wouldn't mind his puppy energy. I'd prefer to host a dog that would play with him or a dog that is chill and will help him be chill, because Augie would play non-stop if given half a chance. I would guess he wouldn't do well with smaller dogs. I could host at home or come to your house if you have a backyard.

We have a sweet hound who we would love to exchange dog sitting with others. She's young and silly. We rescued her a year ago and she is great with kids and people. She has a beautiful howl.

I Can host on weekends I work with children M-F 830-6pm . Also in my weekdays I’m home when on vacation. I like cats and dogs.

Hi there, Mabel and I live in a little cottage on Alameda. She’s an absolute smoosh who gets along great with other dogs, but she’s got some issues with separation anxiety, and she can’t be home alone for long until that’s fixed. I’ve got a small fenced yard, and live walking distance to the Alameda dog park, where I take Mabel to run around a couple times a week.

Milo is a 2 year old 12lb shihpoo that I adopted in October 2023. He loves to play fetch and go crazy with his squeaky toys. He is happy to lounge around during the day but likes to go on walks as well. He tends to play during the night. He is also potty trained as well. He loves snuggling with people on their bed during sleep time. We’ve been working with him on his separation anxiety, but it’s still a work in progress so he would need human companionship.

Hello we are in west alameda. I’m a single mom with 2 boys 1/2 time and a very derpy sweet pitsky. On some weekends I like to get away and would need boarding. Simon is very dog social and hasn’t met a dog he doesn’t want to try and play with. He tends to be submissive and prioritizes being social over everything else! He is great with kids and dogs. He is crate trained and isn’t allowed on furniture (but loves a bean bag). My boys have been involved in training and we’d like to think we’re raising a well Behaved dog.

Hello! I live in Alameda with my 4 yr old female golden doodle Shyla. We are interested in meeting other poodle mixes for possible play dates and hosting swaps. I work from home and live in a town house with easy yard access that’s close to dog friendly parks and the alameda dog park. We like to be active and get out for walks and exercise at least two times per day.

Hello my name is Angelica and my pup is Sol a 11 year old maltipoo mix and daschund. She is a little anxious, but enjoys cuddles and playing with other similar size pups.

We live in Alameda with our two kids and two dogs (Goldendoodle and French Bulldog). We are interested in meeting others in the neighborhood who are interested in trading dog sitting for trips out of town or the occasional walk when schedules get tight. Depending on the activity, we would be looking for sitting for one or both of our dogs. We have a fenced back yard for playdates.

I’m little love to lie in the sun. I’m getting a bit older so my walks aren’t very long. Friendly and of course love treats will work for treats.

We have five dogs. Two labrador retrievers, and three small rescues. They live with us in our house which is a duplex. Downstairs our tenants also have a dog. Everyone gets along really well, our little dogs go visit their dog all the time. One big happy family.

Kumo is a friendly poodle mix who loves everyone he meets and is an expert in cuddling. He also loves to go on walks and play with other dogs.

Hi! I’m Christine and my best friend of 10 1/2 years is Charlie. We are new to Alameda, having just relocated from Chicago, and are looking for other dog families to connect with. Charlie is sweet, loyal and cuddly and once he knows you you’re a friend for life. He loves long walks or lazy days equally. Charlie has a variety of pals back in Chicago, various sizes and breeds but he bonds best with dogs similar to his size. He’s anxious to meet new friends in Alameda as am I!

My name is Donna and my dog Kenai is a 22lb terrier mix. I have my own bookkeeping business but travel for pleasure and to help family out. I have owned dogs all my life . I also fostered dogs for 2 years with Animal Rescue Recon. I have trained and nurtured dogs while fostering. Kenai is my best companion and aided in helping with foster dogs behaviors and training. He’s friendly with all dogs and people.

Hello! Rollie is a 4 year old boy who is sweet, fun, and loving. He will literally automatically love you. He’s a medium energy dog. Needs 1 daily activity such as 30 mins walk or 15 mins of fetch. He really enjoys being around people. He is used to staying at home with dad and taking long naps during the day. He is friendly with dogs and loves to play. Not friendly with cats.

Charlie and Coco are fun-loving goofballs who love to play, but also love to snuggle and nap in the sun beams. Lots of fun!

Meet Auro, a fun and adorable Boston Terrier who brings endless joy to every day! Auro has a playful spirit and a special love for his ball, making fetch his all-time favorite game. Whether at home or at the dog park, Auro’s energy and enthusiasm shine as he sprints after his ball with determination and excitement. He’s the perfect mix of charm and fun, always ready for his next adventure!

Hi! Fluffy is an energetic, 4 year old, white Mini Schnauzer. He loves taking walks, running and playing with balls and squeaking toys. He does suffer a bit from separation anxiety if he doesn’t see anyone around. He does know a few tricks and loves to follow you around if he thinks you’ll give him a treat.

Socks is sweet dog. She loves to hang out with humans and dog friends. She loves to cuddles and belly rubs. She is little jumpy at first with excitement but settles down in like few mins. She is couch potato but also loves to outdoor walks.

Hello! My name is Jennifer. My bf and I are fostering Sammie. Sammie is a super sweet scaredy cat who is still learning how to dog. She is not reactive to other dogs, not food aggressive, and does not have separation anxiety. She does have car anxiety and likes to run away if you drop her leash or leave a door open. She gets along with all animals, doesn’t bite, and rarely barks.

Love animals and have two doggies with two teens at home in Bay Farm.

I’m a dog mom and a human mom! Rocko has lots of energy but also loves to cuddle. He’s a very sweet dog that does well with other dogs his size. He loves to run around the park and play fetch. I’m a nurse and my husband is a stay at home dad to our daughter. We would love to do some swaps to give rocko some company.

This is Buddy. He is a mellow guy who loves to hang out with his people, although he gets the zoomies from time to time. Very shy personality outside of the home.

We are Hillary & Pam. We live on Bay Farm with Maizie & Hazel, 4 and 5-yr. old goldendoodle sisters. We have had a long-time dog/house sitter who has sadly moved away. We don't travel often or for very long, but would like to deepen our dog community resources.

We are pawrents to two sweet dogs, Olaf and Ozzie. Olaf is a sweet, pretty quiet boy. Ozzie is a sassy girl who gets into a lot of shenanigans much to Olaf’s disapproval.

We (husband, myself and Iggy)… are a fun family that loves dogs. We have recently moved to a condo and we do have 2 patios for the pups to enjoy. When the weather is nice we do walks and playtime outside. We have 3 grown kids and 4 grandkids. But, I have to say that Iggy stole my heart and he runs the show. He is spoiled rotten and because I work from home a total Velcro dog. He loves other dogs! Because we do allow him to sleep in the bed with us we prefer other dogs who do not shed. Looking forward to meeting your furkids!

Ricky-GSD/ Corgi mix! He loves people and most dogs! HH inc. 2 cats, 2 teens. Home w/yard in Alameda

Choco is sweet and loves to cuddle. Completely house trained and loves to play. He can be barky and gets excited with other dogs. He loves to eat

Hi! We’re the Arnold family and this is our dog, Marshmallow! We’re so excited to have a pup in the family, but we do travel a lot so am so excited to learn about that swap situation! We’ll be happy to swap with other families with dogs with similar temperaments. We’re hoping to keep it in Alameda. We do have some minor allergies in the house so hypoallergenic breeds are preferred, but for short stays we can explore other options. We prefer to host at our house when we’re sitting, and have our dog stay at your house when we are traveling. Marshmallow is super sweet and loving and good with kids and animals. She is super playful, but likes to lounge and chill too.

Hi, I'm Brent and this is our dog Ruby. Ruby is a 5 year old cavapoochon who is the 4th member of my family, along with my wife, my 4 year old daughter, and myself. We live in Alameda's East End adjacent to the trail that runs between the Bay Farm bridge and the bird sanctuary. We have a side yard that's fenced in. Ruby's smart, social and spunky, doesn't shed and is as close to hypoallergenic as it gets, and loves to play fetch and tug of war. She's great with people of all ages, including babies and kids. She is used to sleeping on a bed with us, with her favorite position being by the foot of the bed by our feet. She's comfortable being left alone for a work day (8-9 hours) if need be, and she also rides in a car without any issue. She can be leash reactive to other dogs due to fear and/or defensiveness, so on walks we cross the street when we see oncoming dogs, bring treats, and in a pinch can just pick her up, as she's only about 14 pounds. At home she's pretty mellow and content just lazing around until witching hour, when she'll want your attention to play. But if you've got a dog also, she loves having company and to play with other dogs. Ruby's non-destructive and has never bitten anyone, nor even destroyed a chew toy. She will bark in defensiveness, such as when the doorbell rings or she sees/hears the postman come through the door. Keeping shades/curtains closed when you're gone will minimize any stress or worry. She gets really excited when we have friends come visit, at least until the novelty wears off. With treats, she'll be happy to show off her range of tricks - spin, rollover, stay, leave it, up off and down - are all in her repertoire. We did a number of classes in puppyhood including agility, which she loves doing. She's athletic, agile and quick. And of course she's house-trained. Our hosting preferences would be for a smaller to medium size dog that has no to minimal shed, and doesn't require an excessive amount of exercise. Ruby loves other doodles, so that's a plus! But she's fine with dogs a size bigger than her, but does not get along with huskies or bigger dogs as well.

A young family that has a very energetic and playful dog .

Barley is vey easy going and gets on with all dogs and kids (we have teenagers). He pretty much sleeps by my feet while I work most of the day and enjoys his morning and afternoon walks! He sleeps in his bed next to mine and often comes up in morning for cuddles but then sleeps until I get up. We have a fenced in large yard (and chickens in their enclosed area). Barley doesn’t really pay much attention to cats but we’ve had no direct experience in a living capacity.

Hi there! Our household includes two adults, two cats, and one dog. We live on the east end of Alameda, and our home has a private, fenced backyard. Our dog Hops is a rescue from Korea, a Sapsali/Jindo mix with a very low-key demeanor. He is good with other dogs, cats, and children. (Visiting dogs would need to be able to tolerate cats.) He is overall a lower energy/chill dog, although he likes playing with his stuffies and other dogs! He can also easily be left alone all day and enjoys his sleep. We look forward to meeting you!

We are looking for a dog sitting swap. Liza and Mimi are super chill girls. Liza is our newest addition to the family. Mimi is LAZY, but loves off-leash hikes and visits to the beach. Liza is slow to warm up, but after a proper introduction, she is good to go! They’re both absolute sweeties!

Hello neighbors! Meet our little family unit. We have one baby named Jolie who we adopted in late July 2023. We love Alameda and are looking forward to getting to know more of our neighbors and their little fur babies of course. Thank you for welcoming us to your home.

Hi neighbor! Nice to meet you. I’m Debbie and my sons are Gus and Owen - maybe we know you. Copper is our lovely dog, sweet and gentle. She loves all people and dogs, plus squirrels. We like to get out of town from time to time and would love to trade dog sitting. We look forward to meeting you soon!
