Cheryl was an amazing dog walker for our puppy! She took such good care of her and left a detailed description of the walk with many photos. We are so happy to have found someone we trust with our beloved Frankie. Can’t wait to schedule another walk soon.

About: Hello, Are you a busy pet owner in need of reliable and trustworthy care for your beloved pets while you're away? Look no further than my garden retreat for pets where I provide pet care, boarding, day care, training, and dog walking services! I understand that leaving your beloved pets behind can be stressful, which is why as an experienced and passionate animal lover I am dedicated to providing the highest level of care and attention to your pets. From daily walks to overnight stays or training and day care, I offer a range of services tailored to meet your specific needs and ensure your pets receive the attention, exercise, and love they deserve. Trust me to take care of your pets like they're my own, and enjoy peace of mind knowing they're in good hands. I would enjoy the chance to take great care of your beloved pet. I offer a safe, healthy, interactive, environment with plenty of enrichment. Please contact me and we can arrange what care and service I can provide you and your pets. Note: I also can provide home made food made from high quality ingredients from a vet approved recipe custom tailored to your specific dog providing all of its nutrients, minerals, vitamins and other beneficial supplements. And I can provide basic grooming, vet pick up and drop off, & training sessions. I am also certified for pet first aid and CPR. I provide hands-on, eyes-on care of your pet. 24 hours a day 5 days a week. And twice a week I take 1-2 hours to take care of my own needs. And I try to take them with me when I can. So your pet is with me as much as humanly possible. I am available unless booked. Once booked and accepted, your reservation is guaranteed. Preference giving to long-term or repeat clients. If urgent or you are in a tight spot, please let me know and I will try my best to accommodate. My eclectic and enchanted garden studio is home to a rescue dog, several bunnies, and quail. Although the backyard is small, there are plenty of enriching activities available for all my furry friends. For daily exercise, we venture up the street to the spacious and dog-friendly Eling's Park, which is both beautiful and super safe for dogs. Additionally, we make a daily trip to the leashed side of Hendry's Beach or one of the many local parks that are dog friendly and our favorites like Hale Park or Toro Canyon Park plus I plan other interactive and exciting outings based on the individual needs and preferences of each pet. Transportation is not a problem, as I have a dog-friendly Honda Accord equipped with harnesses, bungees, dog seat belts with bungees, and a crate for small to medium size dogs. I prioritize the safety and comfort of your pets during car rides, and the seats can easily be folded down for added space. As a trained professional in emergency first aid for pets, I am prepared for any situation that may arise. I will follow any necessary medication routines or dietary plans, and I am happy to accommodate any specific nutritional needs your pets may have. Behavioral challenges or needs will be discussed with you, and together we will create a customized plan to ensure that your pet feels comfortable and happy in my care. If there is anything else I can do to meet your pets' needs, please do not hesitate to let me know. I am always happy to provide excellent service and tailor my approach to meet the individual needs of each pet.

We traveled up from San Diego with our dogs to get married at the Santa Barbara Courthouse and needed someone to hang out with them outside while we signed papers and did the ceremony. Lisa was so wonderful!!! She was so quick to get back to me as we were making plans, she showed up on time and was warm and friendly. She also offered to stay longer while we were taking photos which was so nice because it was pretty chaotic. I’d definitely hire Lisa again and can confidently recommend her if you need a reliable dog sitter.

I've known Grace for over 10 years now and I can't say enough good things about her. She is very responsible, organized, and absolutely loves animals!! She owns two cats of her own who she spoils rotten, and she loves every dog she sees. Any dog owner would be lucky to work with her.

Max and Alicia did a great job watching our dog! They allowed us to come over to see their place and meet them before we made a decision. While we were gone, they stayed in contact with us and sent pictures and videos. Our dog seemed very happy and comfortable at their home.

Had to run out for a couple of hours at a short notice, leaving Pike alone for the first time since I moved to my new apartment. I asked Kathy to walk him and she did a great job! Since it was such short notice, I didn’t get to meet her, but she still sent me updates about his walk, putting my nerves at ease. I’ll definitely be using her again!

First day with Kimi walking my dog while I’m away, and she posted such a thorough review of her time with my German shepherd, including lots of pictures, so happy to know he’s in such good hands! She also came by yesterday for a complimentary meet and greet, incredible service, can’t recommend enough.
