“Demitri absolutely loves Robin! He always enjoys and has a wonderful time and is super happy every time I drop him off, pick him up, or see him in any pictures. Robin also responds pretty quickly and is very helpful!”


“So happy! Rebecca and Tom, Thank you both so much for taking such good care of our little loaf, Olive! She seemed very much at home at your place, and we are so glad it worked well for all of you. We really appreciate all the images and updates you provided. Looking forward to leaving Olive with you both again. Best regards,”


About: Coming to Open-Play Boarding & Daycare is like a day at a theme park for pets! They have a blast running around and, by the end, are happily exhausted. We provide plenty of clean water and beds in all play yards for pets to relax. If open-play is new for your pet, it’s normal for them to feel more tired and thirsty than usual, so just give them time to rest and drink plenty of water at home!


“Ashley is seriously the best. Having a border collie means lots of care and attention. Ashley knows that and always handles her like the professional that she is. We really really appreciate her !! Ashley is the best sitter and great person in general, no one can compare. Thank you Ashley for everything!”


“Avancon did great with Nova, happy that she was in good hands.”


About: I grew up with a dog, but really learned about dog training when I rescued my dog, Meatball. She has taught me a lot about dog ownership, dog training and what goes into making a home a calm, structured environment where a dog can feel comfortable and thrive. I can administer oral medications and give injections. I am also happy to manage topical treatments as well. I work from home most days and am around in the evenings. I crate dogs when I head to the gym or store. If you like your dog to get out for adventures, I'm happy to take them with me to run errands, to the local brewery and to on hikes and walks in new places with new smells. Walks happen at 7am and 4pm, with a potty break before bedtime. More walks can be added if needed. I am a fan of structured play in the evenings as well - fetch, tug and other games that balance fun and listening. For daytime care, dogs are out of their crates and usually hanging out in the office with me while I work. At bedtime, all pups are tucked into their crates. Crates can be in the living room or guest room, depending on owner preference. I do not allow dogs on my furniture or in beds - I find it makes it harder to maintain hierarchy in a new environment. I ensure everyone gets plenty of affection and attention.

“My dog Birdie loves Leilani! She gets so excited to pull up to her home on daycare days! I can tell she is made to feel comfortable and at home on days that I work all day. :-)”


About: I’ve taken care of animals for about 5 years and my love for them has not changed whatsoever. I’m always excited to meet new friends especially when they feel the same way I always care for my cat everyday and sometimes my cousin’s dog if I go to her apartment next door. Taking care of pets is important for me because they are always there for you when you need them most I have a fence in my house to keep any pet from danger and if an animal is not friendly with others my cat has his own room.

“Archer had a great day with Derek. He enjoyed walks and play time and was a happy, tired pup when he got home. Derek is very knowledgeable about dogs and was very responsive! Archer is looking forward to hanging out with him again!”


“Rebekah is extremely caring and communicative. We met her beforehand so our dog and hers could get a feel for each other. Everything went well during the meeting and we knew our dog was in great hands. She sent several updates throughout the day regarding meals and walks, and we really appreciated how much she cared for our dog while we were at work. We will definitely plan on booking with her again soon!”


“This was the first time I’ve ever had someone watch my dog in their home. I can’t begin to express how at ease Nancy & Richard made me. From having a preliminary meet & greet to ease and convenience of arranging my first appointment with them. I knew from their profile, they’d be a great fit for me. Drop off and pick up was quick and easy. My dog was happy to see me but didn’t rush out the door so I know he was happy and content afterwards. During his visit I received a few pictures and updates so I knew he was being very well cared for. Look very forward to booking again!”


“Due to our busy work schedule and long commute, my husband and I had to quickly look for a daycare sitter for our pup. We are so glad to stumble upon Tommy, who is reliable and truly goes above and beyond when taking care of my pup. He kept us updated throughout the day with photos of when our pup is eating, napping, and playing. He even took him out for a run. He even cleaned our pup’s food bowl and water bowl and returned them back at the end of the day. What an amazing experience!”


“Patricia is absolutely fantastic! She was a true life saver when we got our puppy, not realizing how young the puppy was and that it couldn't be created yet while we were at work. She understood that the puppy would take more attention and care than some of her other clients and Patricia was very committed to giving our pup what she needed. She also gave us some great tips for first time puppy owners. Another great thing is her scheduling for drop off and pick up is very flexible. We continue to use her although our girl is spending more time at home. We appreciate her very much.”

“Angie was the perfect fit for our dog! We spent the day at Disneyland knowing that our pup was in good hands. We love the fact that Angie works from home. She was able to send us photo updates throughout the day, take him on walks, and give him all the snuggles he needed as he was the only animal in her care. What a lucky dog! This was comforting for us and allowed us to completely enjoy our time at the park. Thank you, Angie!!”
