About Us
Jacque Preble moved to the
Bay Area 13 years ago with her bouncing baby Doberman, William, and
promptly started searching for a great place to leave her very energetic
and social dog when she traveled. She found a lot of basic kennels where
she felt her dog would be safe but couldn't quite find that next level of
care that she felt William deserved. Jacque vowed that given the
opportunity, she would open a dog hotel that fulfilled her vision - a place
where dogs could play together, enjoy a peaceful environment, and where
their parents could get them back seven days a week!
The opportunity did arise and Jacque's first dog hotel, Dogs' Best Friend,
became regarded as a top-notch dog retreat high in the Oakland Hills. Six
years later it was time for a bigger home for Jacque's vision. She spent
10 months looking for just the right spot - with a convenient location, a
safe building, and outdoor space for the dogs to get fresh air and
sunshine. The stars aligned and with a new name and a new location, WOOF
was born!
No detail was overlooked as six years of experience laid the groundwork
for creating an environment that would be both safe and comfortable.
Premium flooring both indoors and out, top-of-the line kennels and beds,
separate areas for little and big dogs - every aspect of WOOF has been given
the greatest level of regard for our canine guests' safety and comfort!
Of course, any dog hotel is only as good as its staff. Jacque Preble is a
hands-on owner-operator and is constantly upgrading her knowledge
through continuing education programs, veterinarians, and trainers. Every
employee of WOOF is a caring and compassionate lover of animals and a
personal dog owner, too! All full time staff members are ABKA certified
pet care technicians and receive continuing education on all aspects of
dog health and behavior.
Rest assured that your dog
is in good hands when you leave them at WOOF!
