Your Experience at Wag Hotels in SF Bay Area?

Basenji Talk

  • Has anyone boarded their B's at Wag Hotels (http://www.waghotels.com) in the SF Bay Area?

    My B is not very social so I'm mostly interested in the boarding experience (not day care).

    If you have, what did you like most? What did you like least? Would you take your furkid there again?

    Thanks.


  • We used WAG Hotels a few years back in San Francisco and Sunnyvale. Our experience was not that great in Sunnyvale, the dogs usually came back very stressed out. We opt for having dog sitters stay at our house when we are away, which is a much better experience and costs about the same.

  • Agree with Alex! Best if you have a pet sitter at your home


  • A pet sitter is what I use as well. Just a lot better all the way around, particularly if you have a dog that isn't very social! My guy is dog aggressive. He would be way too stimulated in a kennel situation.


  • Any suggestions/recommendations for trustworthy pet sitters in the south bay who has experience with B's?


  • Thanks for the feedback! Was talking to a friend and just my luck, her brother who pet sits her dog, can also baby sit my B - woohoo! It's such a relief! :)


  • Hi imbj,

    Where in the Bay area are you? We live in Foster City with a male brindle B, and we are looking for someone who can look after him when we are out of town. Would you recommend the person that watched yours?

    I haven't done this yet and my friend was just doing me a favor so she asked her brother. At this time, it's more of a peace of mind for me should I ever need someone to doggy sit my Cosmo.

    We have a small yard but our dogs don't seem to mind. They do race around inside the house, will play outside too but prefer to be where ever we are.

    @Tayda_Lenny: Hello! there is a possibility that Tayda, Lenny and I will be moving Northern California in the next few months! I noticed there are a lot of Northern Californians on the forum and I'm wondering where the really dog friendly area are. I might be working in San Jose, and would prefer to live about 1/2 hour north - maybe in Freemont/Union City/Newark area. Is this area dog friendly? Are there fenced in Dog Parks around? Hello there! I live in Cupertino and work in San Jose. Here are two websites that will tell you what dog parks, trails and even hotels you can take your B to. http://www.bahiker.com/doghikes.html http://www.wagntrain.com/dog_parks.htm
