Dog Sitters in Ulmar, CA

Camp Bow Wow consistently exceeds our expectations! After boarding Maggi at the Tracy location, we recently tried out the Tri-Valley facility, and it was another fantastic experience. Maggi was over the moon with joy, clearly having a wonderful time. The staff was exceptional, making her stay even better! We're excited to continue using Camp Bow Wow for both our boarding and day camp needs. Plus, their themed enrichment activities are so much fun!

Camp Bow Wow Tri-Valley is amazing! They have you bring your pup to an interview to make sure they will get along with other dogs. It's comforting to know that your pup will be around other dogs that aren't aggressive. The staff is extremely friendly and helpful and will make sure your pup has the best experience possible. Make sure you download the app so you can watch all the dogs play on their cameras (warning it is addictive!). After Maggi's stay she never wants to leave and will want to go outside. Would highly recommend Camp Bow Wow Tri-Valley if you need day care or a longer term stay! Maggi is looking forward to coming back soon!

The staff at the Livermore Camp Bow Wow was amazing when we traveled in from out of town and boarded our pup, Roma. They took amazing care of her and even cleaned her bed when she had an accident. Thank you!

Our 1 year old lab/Shepard mix loves going to camp. It’s been a great outlet to help get her energy out and socialize with other dogs. The staff is so friendly and they love our girl as if she was their own. The second we get out of the car she can’t get inside fast enough! Such a great feeling knowing our dog is being taken care of when we aren’t with her

My dog loves coming here. She somehow starts whining from a block away as we drive up and sprints inside as fast as she can every time. Always friendly staff. Thanks!

The introduction for the dogs is wonderful. Camp Bow ensures that the dogs are accepted prior to, which ensures that all dogs are safe including your own pups of course. The employees genuinely like the pups! Everyone was friendly and so kind with my two babies, and the cuddle time for my dogs and the pics that I received were so welcoming and the cams while they were in the play area were an added bonus! I felt that my precious babies were well taken care of.

I love taking my baby boy here. He comes home very tired. He has and meets the bestest friends. It's great to log in and view his playtime on camera.

The office staff at Camp Bow Wow in Livermore warmly greets our dog and me as soon as we walk in the door. They love our dog. The place is always clean without a “dog” smell, even when they are full. And I love being able to watch Zeus on the camera, having fun with is dog friends. I don’t have to wonder what he’s doing...I can see what he’s up to! Knowing Zeus is out in a big area socializing with other dogs, rather than cooped up in a small area by himself, or being home alone, makes me able to enjoy my time away even more, knowing that he’s in capable, caring hands. The “enrichment sessions” (cuddle time, play time, dog treat Sniff and Seek, pictured below) let us enjoy ourselves when we travel, knowing that he is too!

We left our dog there for few days as we were not in the town. When we pick our dog after coming back we asked them for bath time and to cut dogs nails. They overcut the nails for 2 foot and my dog was bleeding. They just applied the bandages to stop the bleeding and they are very unprofessional as they don’t know how much nails should cut for a dog. I am very dissapointed with their service. I will never leave my dog again.

We love Camp Bow wow they take care of our dog like she’s one of their own. She come home worn out and can’t wait to go again. In fact as soon as we say “do you want to go see your friends?” She’s running in circles and waiting by the door! Thanks camp for all you do!

I truly can’t say enough good things about BratPak. I’ve been searching for a trusted dog facility for a while and I’m so happy I found this place. I’ve never boarded my dog before but the BratPak staff was so patient and kind with me and answered all of my million questions. My lab absolutely LOVES coming here, and I appreciate the thorough interview process they have to ensure every pup is properly vetted for a safe environment. The staff truly understands dog behavior and genuinely cares about the well-being of each dog. One of the standout features is their commitment to outdoor play. Unlike other boarding facilities I've seen, BratPak keeps the dogs outside all day, embracing the pack mentality, which has made such a positive difference for my dog. My 1 year old lab especially loves the outdoor pool and misters! I love that he can swim all day and live his best life when he’s away at BratPak. They also take protective measures if it gets too hot outside as well. I've boarded him multiple times for 4-5 days, and I've noticed a significant improvement in his socialization skills as well. Their pricing is very reasonable, and I love having the option to watch my dog on their live cameras. They also text me photos and updates of my dog which is another great perk! I love seeing how happy he is in the yard with the other dogs. I couldn’t be more pleased with my experience at BratPak, the staff are all incredible and really sweet. I have full trust in them caring for my pup. To my fellow dog parents - this place is the real deal. I highly recommend them and will be a forever customer!

I can't say enough good things about this dog boarding facility in Livermore! My very submissive Yorkie girl had an amazing time and even made friends in their all-day outdoor environment. The staff are incredibly experienced and professional, and it's clear they genuinely care about the dogs. I was also very impressed with the 24-hour security cameras, which gave me peace of mind. They even have a little water playground that my dog absolutely loved! The best part is their all-inclusive pricing – no need to worry about extra charges for medication or additional playtime. Highly recommend this place for anyone looking for a top-notch boarding experience for their furry friends!

Our dog stayed here for about a week over the Christmas holiday. Prior to that we had to go through an evaluation to see how she is with other dogs, her anxiety levels, etc which is great as this is her first time staying at this boarding place. We’ve stayed at other places before but usually it’s just a quick meet and greet. Love the app where we can check on her via the cameras. Also we appreciate getting txt messages with pictures on how she’s doing which helps us feel at ease. Good to know that she’s being well taken care of while we’re away. She came home happy with no issues. Would highly recommend this place.

I could barely walk my dog becuase she was so hyper and I didnt know how to guide her. After one session of training, she was walking GREAT. She needs more time with me giving her the right cues that Shawn taught me, but im finally excited to take her for a walk vs dreading it. I also take my dog here for overnight stay when we are out of town, and she has so much fun! Most places keep your dog in a run and here they play most of the day, and the costs are all very similar so definitely better for your dog here!

We LOVE BratPak! Our very active pit bull mix has been welcomed with open arms. We can tell that the staff really loves and enjoys him! They have cameras of their yards with live footage anytime we feel like checking in. Our pup is always actively playing or being loved on when we’ve taken a peak! We have boarded him a few times in addition to daycare 2-3 times/week. They are always happy to provide an update on his well-being or send a pic. All pups go through a greeting test & trial. This has helped us to feel secure & safe. We truly believe that BratPark prioritizes pup health and safety. Prior to coming to BratPak we had taken our pup to another doggy care center closer to our house and we did not feel that this was the case. Health and safety is worth the extra 10 min drive! Last thing I think is especially important to mention is that the pups at BratPak have access to all day play. I didn’t realize how many facilities keep pups in separate daycare/boarding rooms… only letting them out for designated play times. Because BratPak takes safety so seriously, all pups can play all day together (there’s multiple yards so they can manage size differences etc.). Our pup comes home well socialized (with humans & many dogs) AND exhausted. He’s never trapped in a space by himself. If he needs/wants rest or space, he’s taken inside and brought back out as soon as he’s ready… no anxiety inducing isolation. BratPak is the best choice for your dog!!

The staff here are all very nice! My pup enjoys coming here and it's very nice that we can see what our dog is doing with the BratKam! Thank you so much for looking over him!

Junior is two years old Westie, and he is very friendly with people but isn't with the other dogs. I saw Brat pack on Instagram. We had a plan to have a new puppy, so we decided to put Junior to take socialization classes. We like Seon's approach, and it works a lot. A few days ago, the new puppy came, so we enrolled private class for Junior and the new puppy. Before had a class, Junior and the new puppy, Cookie, were separated. But, after training, he changed his behaviors and no more aggressive. We appreciate it. And, we have another class on Thursday. We're looking forward to having it.

We recently got a goldendoodle puppy and we were struggling on some trainings. We were fortunate to find Sean to help us crate train him and we can't be happier with the result

We tried a few different daycares for our golden retriever puppies. They love this place so much that they run to the gated entrance and eagerly wait for the gate to be opened. They go in and never look back! The staff is friendly and communicative. We drive over 30min to take our pups here because it’s worth it.

They are real good at handling our dogs. They recognized that one of our dogs is a bit needy and gave us recommendations to help her be less anxious. I love that they have cameras that let you check in on your fur babies.

Love The Ranch, and so does our Bree. The staff is awesome. The place is clean and safe. I never have to worry when I leave my dog there. She is always happy to be there. Thanks to a wonderful staff.

**5-Star Review:** I can't say enough good things about the Ranch! I've been using their services for a few years now, and they have consistently impressed me. The staff is incredibly friendly and genuinely cares about the well-being of my dog in their care. The facilities are immaculate, and I always feel confident leaving my dog there, knowing he'll be well taken care of. My dog gets plenty of playtime and socialization, and he always comes home happy and healthy. It's clear that the team goes above and beyond to ensure the dogs have a great experience. I highly recommend this kennel to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and professional place to board their dog. Five stars all the way!

I love the fact that my pets are so excited to visit the Ranch Resort. I feel they are cared for with the TLC I give them. One thing I feel would make it perfect is if they had a live feed cam that I can check on them throughout the day

Been bringing our pups to them for years. They inspire a high level of trust. Can't say enough good things. Love The Ranch. They take great care of my most treasured companions.

First time boarding experience with Ranch Pet Resort and Spa went so wrong. My healthy 2 year poor golden retriever came back with red, itchy paws, bad ear bacterial infection that costed me $400 and multiple weeks to get her treated. I don't recommend this place. It certainly looks good when touring but they don't care when you leave your pet behind.

Amazing daycare, they have a fantastic system for drop off and pickup. My dog loves it. They post daily pictures and videos on Instagram so you can view your dog during play. No live camera feed, but I'd get fired for watching my dog all day if there was.

Fantastic daycare, boarding, and grooming! Our dogs love coming to the Ranch, and the team are all amazing!

The Ranch is the best our dog loves her stays there and we love how comfortable the experience is! They offer multiple different types of play packages which help a ton when our dog doesn’t play nice with other dogs the ranch offers private play practices so she can get out and enjoy herself! Highly recommend

I have left my 1yr puppy here on a number of times for both daycare and boarding The staff are always courteous and more importantly they care for my puppy well. The cost is reasonable and I think they outdoor play options as well for neutered/spayed dogs. And yes,they accept non fixed dogs, just that they cannot be other dogs. Overall, my experience has so far been good with them

This is the best place for our little girl hands down! The staff is incredible and run a very clean facility! They slowly acclimated Hāna to the daycare pack of pups to insure she wasn't scared by a borage of happy pup all wanting to say hi. Needless to say, Hāna will be back for a week long stay two weeks from now with their platinum package! I'm sure she will love everything from the full day of fun in the park to the bedtime stories and tuck in ever night! If you are bringing your pup for the last week of October, Hāna will be there to play with your pup! "Picture included is not from The Ranch Pet Resort, I just had to add her photo"

Laurie is the best dog walker I’ve found for my 3 dogs! Each having very different personalities, they all loved her immediately during our meet and greet. She is very friendly and attentive to detail with our pups. She made sure they went on two walks a day with a midday playtime visit in our home. We got photos and videos from every visit that made my husband and I’s vacation so much more enjoyable knowing our dogs were in great hands! Laurie did a great job following our routine with the dogs. She’s so flexible with our last minute plans, I can’t thank her enough! Had such a great first experience with her care, already booked her for my next two trips!

Just went away for the Thanksgiving holiday and Laurie took care of my two buddies. She was so professional and very good to my dogs. I got pictures and updates and was able to relax on vacation knowing that my buddies were safe and doing well. I would highly recommend her to anyone who loves their pets. I will leave my pets with her in the future. Very happy to have found such a great service

Laurie was fantastic and made us feel so much better about leaving our three dogs and bunny for a few days! She was extremely responsive to all of our peculiar requests and questions setting up the visits. On short notice she was able to schedule a meet and greet where it was obvious our dogs loved her instantly (and 2 of our dogs are not fond of strangers). She sent multiple photos each visit and it was clear our pets were very well taken care of while we were gone, which gave us so much more peace of mind leaving our loved pets at home. She even brought our trash cans in from the street and brought in a package that was delivered. I would 100% recommend Laurie to anyone looking for a pet sitter!

Laurie is the best with pets. She took loving care of our two dogs and very elderly cat for one week. I really appreciated her daily updates. She was also able to assist with letting the repair person in so the A/c could be repaired after an unforeseen failure. I highly recommend and would absolutely use her again.

Laurie is amazing with our dogs! She sent pictures or videos everyday and the dogs were happily playing. She follows your requests and takes care of your animals like they are her own. Highly recommend her services.

Laurie is great. She is very nice, trustworthy, professional, and my pets warmed up to her right away. I was nervous at first because I’ve never used a pet service before, but she made it so easy for me. Laurie sent me photos and videos everyday while we were on vacation, which really helped me relax knowing my fur babies were being taken care of. Now I can look forward to future vacations knowing Laurie will be there for my pets! Thank you again, Laurie!

Laurie was always on time, responsive, and sent many pictures of my pup on the walks. She first comes to meet your dog and talk you through her service. Her prices are fair and my dog was always tired when he returned from his walks. I’m moving out of the area but will use Laurie when I come back in town!

Laurie is definitely a dog lover and great with my two labs. They love to be around people and when I am gone, Laurie does a great job with them keeping them happy and no anxiety that I am gone. Walks, treats and just hanging out time! Laurie is great!

Excellent sitting service. She was very kind and knowledgeable. She pet sat my pet lizard, which was a first for her, but she did an excellent job, sending pictures and updates to ensure everything was in ship shape. Highly recommend!

Laurie is amazing! I was nervous, never had a sitter for my high energy/anxiety dogs. One is aggressive (he's on meds and had behavioral training) he loved her. She spoke their language and they remained calm at all times. Made me feel safe and appreciative beyond the moon. Definitely recommend! Thankful we have her now and allows so much more freedom for me.

UPDATE, Bobbi has moved out of the bay area and is in Tracy now! Bobbi is reliable and good with animals. She spends time with your pets, not just a stop, feed and go. She sends text photos when she visits so you can see your pets are ok.

Bobbi takes incredible care of our puppy! It’s the only place he’s excited to be dropped off and she shares great pictures so you know how everything is going! She’s the leader of the pack and keeps our lil guy safe and happy as can be. Can’t recommend her enough!!

We cannot say enough good things about Bobbi and Pawsitive Pets! Our Lab puppy Mona was born at the height of the pandemic and was working on her socialization skills. When looking for a daycare service, we read some horror stories about the storefront companies that give limited playtime and keep your dog in a crate during the day. Knowing that our girl needed to maximize her playtime with other pups, we were fortunate enough to find Bobbi. She is so patient, kind and caring and we feel so safe dropping our puppy with her. Bobbi sends us updates and pictures throughout the day and keeps us updated on things she thinks would best benefit Mona. We are extremely grateful to Bobbi for all of her help with our pup and highly recommend her for all of your training/daycare needs!

I have my puppy Mickey here 5 days a week while I am at work and he absolutely LOVES it! He was shy around dogs beforehand and Bobbie got him out of his shell in no time! Bobbie is great about sending picture updates and letting me know how my little guy is doing. She genuinely loves dogs and gives each one all the love and attention they need which makes me feel comfortable leaving him there all day. I’m so thankful I came across Pawsitive Pets!

I cannot recommend Bobbi more highly! She cares for all of our pets when we’re out of town, and she takes our younger dogs for daycare on a regular basis. Our pets adore her, and so do we (the humans)! She has done a phenomenal job of caring for all of our animals, including nursing our oldest dog through a scary medical issue while we were out of town and out of cell range. If you need a qualified, attentive pet sitter look no further - you found her!

Wonderful experience. We’re on vacation with our puppy who happened to get a tick on his eye. They quickly got us in and removed the tick. What a great team and wonderful experience for all. Highly recommend.

Bobbi is amazing! My pup is so much happier since we started going to Pawsitive Pets and I have the peace of mind knowing she’s I’m great hands. Affordable, too!

The owner called me back right away. I could not use their boarding because one of my dogs hates cats. If not for that, we would have boarded our dogs with her.

Bobbi saved us with last minute help! She was great with our dogs and cat. Couldn't recommend enough!

Our dogs always come back better behaved and happy. Great advice on being better dog owners.

I first met Monika in the late 1990s when I had a diabetic dog and a cat. She knew what to do with the diabetes, and the dog just loved her. Monika always was there for us when we needed her. Monika took care of our animals till we moved out of her service area. When my favorite dog had a stroke she was at the emergency room with me, and we cried together when the dog passed. If I lived in her service area, I would absolutely have her take care of my animals no matter what. She is dependable and works very hard to ensure the animals get the care they deserve. She doesn’t take every job to ensure that she doesn’t short-change a pet owner.

I use Furry Friends Pet Sitting about once a month and have had a positive experience. Monika is professional, communicative, and demonstrates exceptional flexibility. The small touches (flight tracking, leaving the house cleaner than when I left, occasional pet toys) elevate the experience and are a welcome part of the service. I will continue to rely on Monika and Furry Friends as long as I live in the area.

Monika pet sat for us during our holiday travels and did a wonderful job. She took care of our cats twice a day, fed them per our instructions, played with them, and even purchased toys for our cats! We also appreciated how communicative she was the entire time.

Where do I start!? We’ve been with Monika for almost 2yrs now! And my Fur Babies love her!! Monika is such a perfectionist, attentive, and very detail oriented! Little stuff like bringing in the mail and throwing out the pee pads after she’s changed it! She’s just amazing! My 2 cats don’t feel as stress when I come back home from a trip. Before they wouldn’t eat even after we’ve been back home for a day, till they acclimated to us being back home.. but since they’ve been seeing Monika it’s like we never left for a day or 3 or a week! My German Shepard does not even cry during the night anymore. She gives them allll love equally! WE LOVE YOU MONIKA!

Monika has been taking care of my cat for months now and I feel so comfortable leaving him in her hands! She’s very professional and organized when it comes to scheduling and keeping notes on the care of my cat. Whenever I need to book an appointment, she always gets back to me in a timely manner and without hesitation will make room in her schedule for me. I am also very impressed with her calm and loving energy she gave off to my cat when she first met him. He is usually very shy around new guests in the house, but he came right up to her and they became friends right away. She also took the time to come meet us before committing to watching my cat for the first time. I really appreciated the effort and interest she puts into her work so we would all feel comfortable our first time using her. Every time Monika comes to play with him while I am out of town, she will send me updates to let me know he is doing fine. If you are looking for someone who is knowledgeable, responsible, and genuine with the care of your fur baby... look no further! I am so pleased with the service from Furry Friends Pet sitting and I will continue to use Monika as my cat’s pet sitter!

I can’t begin to preach enough praise for Monika. I’m sure like a lot of people that own animals, you look at those animals as not just animals but a part of your own family. With that in mind, it is hard to trust someone to care for your family the same you would yourself. Well, that was until I met Monika, she has not only cared for the animals but goes above and beyond for them even to the point where she makes me step my game up when I see them after they have seen her LOL. She is punctual, loving and detailed oriented. She has been able to accommodate my family on last minute emergencies as well as planned out vacations! She is the absolute best and I would recommend her services to anyone who loves and cares for their fur babies like a family member!

We have used Furry Friends as our pet sitter for many years now. We first hired Monika to care for our senior (and later, diabetic) kitty when we went on vacation; I wanted someone with the expertise needed to take care of a special needs (and not terribly friendly) cat, and Monika was absolutely the right person. Now she cares for our two younger kitties, and dotes on them like they are her own; they clearly love her back! She also does a marvelous job of taking care of household issues that arise while we are away - and we've had a few doozies - with absolute professionalism. You can be very confident leaving your pets in the hands of Furry Friends. They will be treated like family.

They are amazing! They made an appointment to meet and greet our pups. They asked numerous questions to ensure they had every tid bit of information increasing my confidence in them. Very respectful and accommodating. Highly recommend them for anyone in the area, as they were able to not only squeeze us in for the meet and greet but also squeeze us in almost last minute as their new clients. Definitely recommend them and our pups Apollo and Queenie loved them and will hopefully see them again. The daily updates sent via photos and videos were the extra mile and their photo skills are great too!

Monika is amazing, she watched our elderly grumpy cat for several weeks and won her over in the process. Monika was able to get her to take her medication! Changing methods and trying new tricks I hadn’t considered, Monika was able to stay a step ahead of her. Really appreciated the regular updates and all of Monika’s time, care and attention!!! We are so thankful that we found Monika and you will be too!

I am so thankful that I found Monika and Furry Friends. Monika is not only a consummate professional but obviously a deeply caring person. When your pups are like family it is so important to have someone you trust care for them when you are not home. And not only trusting your special furry friends but trusting someone to be in your home when you are not there is a huge thing. Monika cares about everything. My dogs love having her here. Because she has been a veterinarian nurse I can trust that she knows the nag about my dogs that I don’t even know! She takes care of everything and actually my house looks better when we get home than when I left it. We got text updates while we were gone and I have such peace knowing she is there. I never have to worry at all about how my girls are being cared for. No one besides my family will ever care for my pups when I can’t be with them

Keelie and her team are a pleasure to work with! They are all so kind and very passionate about the care they provide our fur-babies! Initially, we were very nervous to leave our 2 cats alone for long international trip, especially because it was our first time being away from them for so long. However, Keelie and her wonderful team were so responsive and would send us updates and pictures at every visit. We will be using Keelie as our pet sitter for all of our future trips because we know our kitties will be so well taken care of and loved while we are away! Thanks again Keelie + team! You all are the best!

I just wish I would have found Keelie's pet sitting sooner! I had a bad experience with a different pet sitter. Keelie is responsive and communicates well. She sends me pictures every day of her walking my dog so that gives me piece of mind! Her app is so easy to use to request pet sitting and update information about my pets. The best part is when I come home my pets seem happy and not stressed at all!

I LOVE Keelie’s Pet Sitting. From being dependable and taking such excellent care of my sweet fur baby, plus the ease of scheduling, Keelie’s Pet Sitting is AMAZING. I highly recommend!

Keelie has been there for us ever since we got our new puppy last Nov. She walks him and plays with him and has given me a lot of good advice. She is really flexible with my schedule which changes constantly. The best thing about her is that she has a special and loving attitude with my little guy Milo. Milo gets so excited when he see her. She always takes pics of him for me which I look forward to. I completely trust her and her staff.

Highly recommended her service!!! Thanks to Keelie I was able to enjoy my week vacation without worrying about my 15 month old yellow Lab. She updated me daily with a message and photo of my precious Lulu. Keelie goes above and beyond to give the professional care, love and attention needed for peace of mind. Bonus was when she took care of an indoor ant problem before I came home. Can’t thank her enough!!!

Keelie is very responsive and always comes through even on short notice. I love that she sends text updates and photos of my pets on each visit. She is very good with our cats and bird, and her prices are very competitive for the quality of service she provides. I trust her, and highly recommend her!

Keelie is the best! We have two chickens and a cat, my biggest fear moving anywhere new is finding a pet sitter. We moved to Pleasanton to save on rent in the pandemic and I dreaded this the most. Who was going to take care of two chickens and a cat? We used Yelp to find Keelie and she was the only person who was familiar with chickens. Her communication was fully professional and I was immediately impressed with how quickly she identified every one of my pet’s needs. Her questions made it clear she knew what she was doing and could be trusted. Being able to go down and check on my mother in the pandemic and not having to worry about our fuzzy family is amazing! Thank you so much to Keelie! Don’t wait— book a meeting with her and get your fuzzy friends great care :)

Great experience with Keelie petsitting our 3 kitties for 7 days. The cats were well fed and she sent us pictures of them twice a day so we could rest assured of their good condition. She even made sure our less aggressive feeder had a place to go to eat in peace and stayed until she was finished. Twice daily meds and feeding with absolutely zero fuss! Will be using her again and again.

Keelie is a highly recommended per sitter/walker. She walked our 2 year old twin labs up until the pandemic started and both pawrents had to work from home. She was reliable and flexible and we hope to have her back when we return to work one day.

Keelie is the best Petsitter I have ever had! She takes care of our kitties just like they are her own. We have a kitty who needs medication twice a day and she is a pro at that! I highly recommend her!
