Doggy Day Care in Colache Town

“Jennifer and her Family (human and fur) are a fantastic fit for Cleo. She is a high energy dog and comes home fully exhausted from her playdates with Jennifer, Rosey and their team! My husband told me it was the "perfect fit" for Cleo and us!”

“Debra was great for babysitting our goldendoodle for the day. He got to play with their doggy and she even sent me a picture to let me know he was doing great.”

“Susan L. is awesome. There is so much open space for our dog Bailey to run off the leash and interact with other well behaved dogs. Susan offered us some useful training tips and a full report on Bailey's behavior. I feel like Bailey enjoyed her time with Susan. My wife and I will definitely be bringing Bailey back when the need arises. I highly recommend Susan L.”

“Petra was wonderful to work with! Our pups were happy, socialized and well cared for during our day trips. Will definitely be calling on Petra for trusted doggy care in the future. Thank you, Petra!!!”

“Sandy really loved her time with Denise and Quarky. She tried to run back into Denise's house as we were putting her in the car, so we'll definitely have to book again, the next time we're in Santa Cruz. Denise was easy to communicate with and drop-off/pick-up was a breeze.”

“Kota has been happy with J and been well taken care of. The backyard is big enough to get some exercise. I got updates and pictures throughout the day. You can trust your dog will be taken care of.”

“Tracey was amazing! I've never left my dog with a sitter before and was a little nervous, but I felt comfortable with her as soon as I met her. She was so welcoming and kind. Buddy is timid with other dogs and had some anxiety but Tracey still was able to take him on walks successfully and he came home happy and exhausted. Thank you, Tracey!”

Melanie P.

“We were grateful for the time Jenna spent with Agent 86. They went on a walk together and helped us out while we were visiting the area. I think 86 really enjoyed it.”

About: With 4 years of hands-on experience in pet care, I’ve worked with dogs of all ages, sizes, and temperaments. I’m certified in dog CPR and have multiple dog handling certifications, which means your pup’s safety is always my top priority. I’ve cared for energetic puppies who need structure and training, as well as senior dogs who require patience, gentle handling, and extra love. I treat every dog like my own, with respect, understanding, and lots of belly rubs! Pet care is a big part of my everyday life. I currently work part-time as a kennel technician, so I’m already caring for animals daily feeding, cleaning, monitoring health, administering meds, and making sure they feel safe and comfortable. Outside of that, I make time each week for pet sitting and drop-in visits. My schedule fluctuates so I always try to work my schedule around yours! Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or yours, I always focus on creating a safe, calm, and loving environment that feels familiar and stress-free for them. In clients' homes, I stick closely to your pet’s routine regarding feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medication, and any house rules you’ve set. I make sure they feel comfortable in their own space while keeping you updated with photos and messages. When pets stay with me, they get a clean, pet-friendly space with plenty of attention, enrichment, and quiet time to relax. I limit the number of animals I care for at once to make sure each one gets the time and care they deserve. Your pet's comfort and safety always come first, no matter where they are.

“Bumpy’s first stay with Keren was perfect. He was so excited to see he was going back to her home when we drove up. Bumpy and I had done a meet and greet with Keren and another family, the other family was nice and I could tell they love dogs but Bump didn’t seem to be very comfortable. During our visit he stayed close to me and didn’t do much exploring. He had such a different reaction to Keren and her family, from the minute we walked in her door he was gone, sniffing, exploring, meeting the dog of the house. To see such a marked difference in his reaction made my chose easy, he was letting me know which family he preferred. So to pick him up at the end of his first stay with Keren and find him happy and tired after a trip to the beach and a walk was wonderful. I could tell he had bonded with Keren and I will not hesitate scheduling another visit.”

“Nieves was incredibly sweet and took excellent care of my dog. My pup got to play with her kids and they took her on a walk to the beach. I really appreciated the updates and the fantastic pictures she shared throughout the day. I will definitely be using her services again in the future. Highly recommended!”

“Carlie took fantastic care of my dog and my sister-in-law's pup on a recent trip. The two dogs are pretty high energy and Carlie handled all of our requests with ease. She was flexible with our timing and I would happily work with her again. Thanks Carlie!”

About: I live in the Corralitos mountains with 2 English Setters, Toby is 9 years old and Finnegan is 5 years old. We have a 15 acre property to walk/hike. We also have a stream to freshen up in hot days. Plenty of room to play. I’m home based and keep my eyes on the puppies 24/7. No better place to enjoy the outdoors and play with Toby and Finn (both are neutered, and super friendly with other dogs small or big) I’m home based, keep my eyes on my puppies 24/7. I give them lots of playtime and rest. I let them play outside several times a day and I also give them 2 daily long walks, morning and evening I have 15 acres of land, I like to offer them lots of time outside (always supervised). I also walk them inside the property to ensure daily exercise.

About: I am attending school at UCSC for legal studies and have a robust knowledge of dog parks, dog-friendly beaches and trails from Santa Cruz to the City! If you’d like to socialise your dog, you’re in luck because I have a 10-month-old baby 🐾 of my own. We have tons of doggo friends for your pooch to meet if you choose, and no matter what, your dog is getting top-tier handling and care when you trust working with me! If there are behaviours you’d like to work on or would like me to be aware of, please do not hesitate to reach out, and we can discuss them further. I am available for full time pet care and when school resumes come the New Year, I will be available part time + still available to board if needed. There has not been an hour where I have not been in the company of 1 or more dogs since June 2024 I have a fenced yard for the dogs to go potty and run uninhibited. I have a small scale toy operation which means the dogs will have plenty to keep them occupied and if he/she would like to go home with their favourites, we can arrange for that too. I am capable of pickup and drop off as well as supervised visits to the park, creeks, the beach, trails, etc.

“I am so grateful Ashlyn was able to accomodate my last minute planning. They handled TWO huskies (my Jenna is a trouble maker) I was nervous because I never used rover and was hesitant because I’ve never left them alone other than family. Dakota and Jenna had a blast and now they’re both just laying on the floor with Dakota spreading eagle 🤦🏻‍♀️😝 Would recommend and will definitely let you know when I need dog sitting again in the future! Thanks again!”

“Debra was very attentive and had the utmost respect when watching over our pups. Everything in her profile lives up to She was very responsive since we didn’t give her a definitive time when we were going to drop the pups off and was very flexible and accommodating. I will definitely use her when I return to Morro Bay and highly recommend her to anyone who needs babysitting. She constantly updated us with Picts and she has a huge backyard that allowed them to run around.”
