Dog Boarding in Avila Beach, CA

“Pam helped me out in a pinch and provided great quality care to Penelope. You can see she absolutely loves animals and is so thoughtful with them. Would only take Penelope to her whenever I’m in the central coast. Thank you Pam for being so sweet. Penelope loves her new pupaccino toy!”

“My small dog enjoyed her stay with Douglas. He treated her as if she were his own and kept me updated daily with texts, photos, and videos to show me how she was doing.”

“We cannot say enough amazing things about Robyn! My boyfriend and I were hesitant to leave our pup with someone because he has separation anxiety and has escaped from multiple sitters in the past. Robyn made him comfortable and at home immediately, she sent multiple updates everyday, she worked with our schedule, she was truly a saint! We are so grateful we found a reliable sitter for any future needs :)”

“Melissa is great with doggies, probably all animals. She is kind and definitely a dog person. Dogs have a way of knowing right away if the person is their “kind of dog lover”. My dog Dot ran right up to her and into her home. Dot is a nervous breed so I knew right away this is a good place to leave our little “nervous nelly”. We got pictures often and Dot was kept four days. Melissa has her own doggie, Lucy. We will definitely use Melissa again. She has a backyard for the doggies and daily walks. Wonderful sitter! Dot usually comes home mad that we left her behind, but this time she came home loved, so I think Dot is grateful we found a dog lover to leave her when we need to.”

About: I've had multiple dogs throughout my life, most starting from puppies. My wife and I are dog lovers and we have 3 pugs of our own. We have had multiple big dogs at once but when they passed on, we decided to go the smaller route. We have housed multiple dogs at once for the weekend, done dog walking for friends and family and now wish to help out our community. If you need anything, please reach out to see if I can be of assistance. I'm used to walking large breed dogs and can even take them out to the dog beach if wanted. I can walk your dogs, bathe, feed, play, take to the beach, or just lay around with them. I do have 3 pugs that live with us so if you do need us to board, please let me know if they are not friendly and I can keep them away from each other. I have a fenced backyard, but all dogs are welcomed inside our home and allowed on furniture. Our fur babies are family and are treated like royalty and all pups inside our home get the same treatment. I can abide by any special diet restrictions or time for feedings. Our dogs eat twice a day with an occasional treat. Please let me know if treats are not allowed

“11 out of 10 HIGHLY RECOMMEND! Krysta and Tyler earned my trust from the moment I met them. They were patient and loving to my very large puppy, Henry, while I was gone on a work trip. They took him for hikes with their dog Ava, played tug of war, and sent pictures every day so I knew not to worry. Their house is clean and backyard is fully fenced with grass to run and play on, and they had no problem showing me where Henry would be sleeping, so I could ensure he’s not being locked up in a garage somewhere. They are kind and genuinely love dogs (and not in an over-zealous weird way). If you need a place to board your four legged family member while you’re gone, you can trust Krysta and Tyler to love on them while you’re gone.”

“Provided pictures and updates every day we were gone. Our dog is disabled with has separation anxiety and he able to provide her a very accommodating home for the weekend. He is even able to carry and 70lb dog if needed”

“I got to know Jocelynn N. when she house-sat for us during our vacation. We found her to be extremely reliable, kind, insightful, considerate, and very capable. I will use her again and again if and when she is available. She is a rare type, always knowing what to do to take care of my dogs and my other pets. Because of Jocelyn, I do not have to worry should I need her assistance. Thank you, Jocelyn, just for being so trust-worthy and helpful. I feel lucky to have found you!”

“I am a dog sitter on Rover and this is the first time I’ve used the Rover service for my own dog and I am very pleased with the care that Jaquelyne gave my dog and how well he got along with her dog and cat. She was very quick on writing back to me which I appreciated and sent me lovely pictures of my dog which made me feel at ease. She also made it very convenient by providing a drop off and pick up service. I would highly recommend her if you are looking for care for your dog.”

“Audrey would be an incredible rover… I’ve known Audrey for 15+ years and she’s always been one the most responsible, caring, communicative people I know. I’ve also witnessed her be a great parent to her own dog, making sure he is always happy and healthy. She has also watched my own dog, who has severe separation anxiety but feels comfortable around Audrey. Any pet parent would be lucky to have Audrey take care of them.”

“Gage was very nice and did a great job watching Piper. If we are ever in the area and in need of his services we will definitely have him watch our dog again!”

“Victoria was absolutely amazing with my golden retriever!! She even got to play with her sweet dog Pearl! She had the best time with her and would definitely recommend to anyone. ❤️”

“Tami took such great care of our little doxie Polly while we were away for 3 weeks! We hardly ever leave our dog when we go out of town so needless to say we were extremely nervous not only about how our pup would do, but how we would do as well. Tami put our minds at easy with daily text updates along with photos. Tami was always available for any questions or concern we had. Both she and her husband took Polly on daily walks and trips to the beach and she even bathed Polly the night before we returned to town so or pup would be nice and clean for extra snuggles. Our pup was so happy to see us but I have to say I think she was a little sad to leave this little doggie heaven. Also Polly loved Tami’s little yorkie Jade who was super sweet and welcoming upon Polly’s arrival. They got along great! We will absolutely be using Tami to watch our little pup again in the near future. They showered her with so much affection, played fetch with her everyday, and were so attentive to her needs as an older dog. Thank you is not enough for this wonderful family but it will have to do. Look no further for your dogs home away from home!”

“Matthew has taken care of my young dog on multiple occasions for hours or nights at a time, and does a great job with him. My dog was a rescue from a high-kill shelter in Korea, and therefore has a lot of anxiety dealing with new people. Matthew made him comfortable with him and is one of my pup's favorite people to be around.”

“Craig did an awesome job with our dog Rocket.. He sent pictures and updates everyday. He treated our dog like his own and we will definitely use him again! Thanks again!”

About: I am the daughter to two vets, and was raised on a ranch in Southern California. I have always had dogs and cats and adore spending time with them! I have been a trainer in the past so I adore spending time walking, stimulating and enjoying the day with your pets! I work from home so I am available at any time, I adore any excuse to move and since I don't socialize with co workers, I have all the socail energy and love for your pet. Honestly this is variable based on the pet. Pets are like people, we all have different love languages. I'm here to help your pet feel comfortable and release the energy they need. I walk numerous times a day, check in on comfort levels and provide all the love and attention your pet could need.

“We had a great experience with Malia. We were in San Luis Obispo to see a performance. We were able to easily drop our dog off with Malia before our show and he was all ready to be picked up when we were ready to head home. Malia was cordial and courteous with us. When we picked up our dog, he appeared content and happy. We hope to work Malia again when we are in town. We highly recommend Malia.”

About: I have been pet sitting for more than 5 years. I love taking care of animals. I’ve worked as a ranch hand, worked on a farm for a bit with cattle and horses. Personally I have had a husky, hound dog and an orange tabby cat. All very high energy but I loved every second of it. I can assure you that your pet will be well taken care of :) I am pretty flexible considering I only work Tuesday - Thursday. My hours of availability are pretty open. I am also available on weekends for pet care. I had a cat myself and he is very spoiled. I will make sure your animals are well taken care of and get the things they need. Especially snuggles !

“Garrison was very flexible and took very good care of my dog! She had tons of fun with no issues at all! The updates he provided was awesome for keeping me in the loop. Will definitely book again when I'm in the area!”

“We really lucked out finding Sean! He took amazing care of our dog and she loved hanging out with his dog camper. Absolutely recommend and hope to be a repeat client!”
