The Dog Social Club Cooperative - Oakland, California

Dog Social Club is amazing. The staff is very friendly, adaptable and flexible. Most recently we’ve had our two dogs stay there, and both had the times of their lives.

It’s great that they have play structures, pools, and additional services you can add for your pups. Our two boys have very different personalities, one loves dogs and is shy with people, the other loves people and is shy with dogs.

Both came out of their shells and loved being a part of the pack. It’s been the only place that we’ve boarded them where we had full peace of mind during our own vacation (and where it seems like they are on vacation too!).

Thank you DSC!!

“If it takes a village to raise a child” then I believe pet parents everywhere would agree the same could be said for raising a pup into a well adjusted, social, happy dog. For us, an integral part of that village is the staff of experienced and loving professional trainers and dog handlers at the Dog Social Club Cooperative. Our teenage Boxer Socrates has been a member since nine weeks old. Initially part of their puppy program, he continues to thrive here daily. For working pet parents, there is no greater value than knowing your beloved four-legged family member is living their best life while we’re at our day jobs. Our previous Boxer Gelato attended Every Dog Has its Daycare and when Socrates came into our life, I knew there was no better place for him to come of age. For those of us who understand the critical importance of positive social interactions, the Social Club Cooperative maintains a philosophy that prioritizes the safety of all its members and guests while showering them with all the love and attention they deserve during the day when their owners are away. Whenever I’m asked how I afford what some may consider a luxury, I respond simply with “I can’t afford not to.” This incredible facility continues to be an invaluable part of our Boxer’s nurtured training along with keeping him happy while embracing the multiple opportunities to socialize with other dogs, exercise, play, and learn. The Dog Social Club Cooperative truly lives up to its name. While I consider myself fortunate enough to be able to provide this privilege for Socrates, I embrace and celebrate the benefits of what he gets out of being here every day. For me, and for Socrates, this “village,” is a home away from home, and irrefutably, the happiest place on earth. Thank you Katie and Lindsey for what you have created here and to all the staff members who treat Socrates like one of the family, we appreciate all you do!

Staff are very friendly and accommodating. When my dog attends daycare, they send me a postcard showing how my dog is doing and pictures of her with dog friends.

would never take my dog anywhere else in the bay area. he loves it so much he doesn't even say goodbye to me when I drop him off (which I consider a good thing!). he's so excited to go to dog social club and play with his friends and can't wait to get to the other side of that door! the staff always make the dogs sit first which is great training and they see that the dogs get along and are separated by size. puppies get their own play room as well. love the staff and can not say enough good things about this place.

My dog has a total blast at the dog social club cooperative! It's incredibly clean, the staff are super friendly & attentive, and it's clear to me just how much care and intention is put into making it an engaging and fun place for the dogs. Having read some of the reviews posted recently, I agree, and I also wouldn't take my dog anywhere else in the East Bay. This place is that good!

The BEST dog daycare in the East Bay. Would recommend it 10/10. Our dog loves it there, and always comes back home super tired (and sometimes wet from spending time at the pool).

The Dog Social Club (DSC) is by far the best dog daycare facility in town! All the staff members genuinely love dogs & they care about all the doggie members in their facility. The communication amongst staff members is also amazing! Any instructions provided to one staff member are shared amongst all the staff members, so my dog is cared for very well while being at the facility. I am totally worry-free while my dog is under their care. They are an extension of my home care for my pet.

So, it is with upmost gratitude that I would like to thank DSC for the excellent service that they provide. I am especially thankful to Susy for assessing & admitting my love one!!
