Jack & Robi of Wiggle Away

  • Robi has been absolutely amazing! She is super communicative, flexible and takes such good care of our dog. She goes above and beyond always to make sure Sadie is cared for and doesn’t feel anxious. I’m so grateful that we found her and cannot recommend her enough! If you’re in need of a dog walker in the Alameda area look no further.

  • Roberta (owner of Wiggle Away) is absolutely lovely to work with. She looks after our three dogs - boarding & walking; they adore her. She provides daily "walk" updates per our request - she really exercises them well & that's what a dog wants & us too;). She is always punctual. We can now take vacations stress-free because we know Robi will continue to take good care of our pets. I highly recommend giving Robi a go!

  • AWESOME! Robi is the best! My wife and I are so blessed to have Robi as a trusted sitter for Sadie when we travel. We recently flew back to Louisiana for a week and felt completely at ease leaving our fur baby in Robi's care. Robi's the best!

  • Robi is very professional and accommodating. We have a senior pet (17-yr-old chihuahua mix) with special needs, and Robi is very patient and understanding with her. Try Wiggle Away!

  • Robi is amazing. She is caring, experienced, and flexible. My pup, Goldie, is a hard case, he came from a bad place. Robi took the time to with us to make sure that Goldie was calm and settled. Additionally, she worked with me to improve my cues and techniques; it was very much appreciated. If you are thinking about services for your pup, look no further. Thank you for all that you do, Robi!

 FAQs

  • Unfortunately at this time I cannot board pets in my home. My blind senior dog enjoys being the King of the Castle, and having other pets around would be too stressful for him.

  • I have worked with some in the past and I’m open to working with more! Clear instructions on handling, feeding and overall care is required and should also be demonstrated during our Meet & Greet.

  • There are times I will need to leave to service my other clients (especially during the week) and I try my best to book these times in 4-5 hour blocks. This usually happens twice a day, typically morning/afternoon and late afternoon/evening.

    On weekends I will usually have more time to spend with your pets, in which case I do!

  • I rotate between 11 different dog friendly trails, all located within the Regional Parks! All trails take at least one hour to complete and range in elevation (200 - 500ft) and distance (1.5 - 3 miles).

  • For safety reasons I cannot take dogs to the local dog parks.
