Doggy Day Care Encanto

About: Hi, I’m Amanda! I’m a stay at home mom providing a safe, comfortable, and attentive home environment for dogs while their families are away. Our home is set up with dogs in mind, including a large, fully enclosed .25 acre backyard where they can get fresh air, play, and explore safely. We also have Luna, our friendly 7 year old dog, who enjoys the company of other dogs and can provide companionship for pups who are comfortable around other dogs. I’ve had dogs most of my life and have experience caring for dogs through all stages of life. I previously had my dog Cal from puppyhood through his battle with cancer, which taught me the importance of patience, medication management, special care, and paying attention to each dog’s individual needs. Because I’m home full time, your dog will have plenty of attention, regular potty breaks, and won’t be left alone for long periods. I understand that every dog has their own routine and personality, and I’ll work to keep them comfortable by following their normal schedule and preferences. Whether your dog loves playing in the yard, going on walks, relaxing at home, or simply having someone nearby, I’d love the opportunity to care for them. I’ll treat your pet like they are part of our family while making sure you receive updates and feel confident they are safe and happy.

“Monique was wonderful! I had a last minute (less than 12 hours) cancellation from my primary dog sitter and Monique was quick to respond. I couldn’t be more grateful. The photos she shared of my dog were lovely and it was clear my pup felt immediately safe and comfortable in her space. I would recommend her 100x!!”

About: I've had my own dogs for the last 11 years. Before that I volunteered at the San Diego County Bonita Shelter years as well as dog sit, walk and bathe my friends dogs. I love to do lightweight training as well. I recently retired after 20 years in the Navy. With no more deployments or underways, I have plenty of time to walk and spend time with your pets. I have a fenced yard and 4 friendly dogs to keep your fur baby company. I can also crate if needed as I have multiple crates in different sizes.

About: As a full-time retired “dog grandpa,” I’ve spent over 50 years caring for dogs of every shape, size, and personality. Friends, neighbors, and family have trusted me for decades to walk, feed, bathe, and love their pups just like my own. I currently share my home with a friendly spaniel mix who loves making new friends and helps create a warm, social atmosphere for visiting dogs. I’m patient, attentive, and happiest when I’m surrounded by wagging tails. From energetic youngsters to sweet seniors, I know how to keep each dog comfortable, confident, and cared for. Now that I’m fully retired, caring for pets has become one of the most enjoyable parts of my day. I’m home most of the time, which means your pet gets plenty of attention, frequent potty breaks, and peaceful company throughout the day. I’m available on weekends and most weekdays, and my open schedule allows me to keep your pet’s routine steady morning strolls, afternoon cuddles, or extra playtime, whatever they need. My home is set up with pets in mind. I have a secure fenced backyard with a large pet door so dogs can safely go in and out for fresh air and play. My spaniel mix is friendly and loves having canine company. We take daily walks to nearby parks, perfect for sniffing, exploring, and stretching those legs. Inside the house, pets are welcome to relax wherever they feel comfortable and yes, that includes the furniture. I provide a calm, supervised, and cozy environment, and I’m experienced with crates, medications, special diets, and supporting dogs with different energy levels or routines. Your dog will be treated like a cherished family member with all the gentle attention, structure, and warmth you’d expect from a loving retired grandpa.

“Tiancai was wonderful! She helped me with Misha while we were visiting family in San Diego for my Uncle's services. I needed care on the spot, she was available and it worked out great. Tiancai's communication on Misha during her care was awesome and reassuring. Very sweet puppy sitter.”

“Toby had the best time with Taylor and her family. Taylor was a lifesaver since we had last minute plans and we didn’t want to leave our little Toby alone in the hotel. Will definitely be booking with taylor in the future!”

About: I've grown up around dogs my entire life and have experience caring for a variety of breeds, including an Akita, an English Bulldog, and currently my 6-year-old French Bulldog. Caring for dogs has always been a natural part of my life, and over the years I've regularly watched and cared for family members' dogs while they're away on vacation. My home is a great fit for dogs who enjoy a calm, relaxed environment. My French Bulldog is very laid-back and spends most of her day lounging, napping, and soaking up the sun. We have a large, fully fenced backyard where dogs can run around, play, get their zoomies out, or simply relax and enjoy being outside. I understand that every dog has a different personality and routine, and I strive to make them feel comfortable, safe, and loved while they're in my care. Whether your pup is energetic and playful or prefers a quiet place to unwind, I'll make sure they receive plenty of attention, affection, and care throughout their stay. I work from home, which allows me to spend most of my day with the dogs in my care. Aside from occasional trips to the gym or running errands, I am home throughout the week and able to provide plenty of supervision, companionship, potty breaks, and playtime. My flexible schedule allows me to give dogs the attention and consistency they need to feel comfortable and at home. Your dog's safety and comfort are my top priorities. I share my home with my boyfriend and our 6-year-old French Bulldog, who is friendly, relaxed, and enjoys spending her days lounging and sunbathing. We have a quiet, low-stress home environment that is ideal for dogs who enjoy both playtime and downtime. Our large backyard provides plenty of space for dogs to run, explore, burn off energy, or simply relax in the sun. I closely supervise outdoor time and always follow each dog's routine, feeding schedule, and any special instructions provided by their owners. I understand that every dog is unique, and I work to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, loved, and cared for while they're away from home. I treat every dog in my care like they're part of the family and provide regular updates and photos so you can enjoy peace of mind while you're away.

“Antonio is really great! He had my dog Prince who is very nervous and timid with new people stay for day care. Antonio and I set up a meet and greet first and he was patient and understanding with Prince and has been great about giving Prince space and time to open up. He seems to know his stuff about dogs and introduced Prince to the other dogs at daycare slowly making sure Prince was comfortable. Anotnio also sent lots of pics and videos keeping me super up to date with Prince’s progress which I really appreciated! I would definitely use Antionio again!”

Claire H.

“Loved Maria! She was the best with our very energetic pup! Her house was the best fit for Dexter and he had so much fun with Rumpy! She was very communicative and friendly with baby! She was also very thorough since the first message with how we wanted our Dexter Boy to be taken cared of! All the instruction were followed to a T and I could not be more happier with her! Definitely will be booking in the future especially because our baby was just so happy coming from her house!”

“Bill & Todd are absolutely amazing! My pups are always excited to go to their home, play with their friends, and run around in their yard all day.”

Darcy C.

“Our dogs had the best time at Joseph and Chris’ home. We were in town just for the weekend and Joseph and Chris were very accommodating in hosting our pups while we went to the zoo. Communication leading up to the visit, and during their stay was phenomenal. Once we picked up our dogs, they fell asleep immediately, which is always a sign of a good time!”

About: My two dogs are husky/malamute mixed who love having company. They are pretty chill, but can be energetic and playful with dogs of literally all sizes and personalities. I’m a real estate agent and work from home, but wake up very early! We cannot do pickups after 7p so anything late needs to be scheduled next day unless confirmed prior to booking. My husband is also home most of the time. I don’t leave my own dog home for more than 4 hours (ever) by himself but also have a doggie door (when I’m home only), and a large home with hard floors for the pups to roam. I have a fenced yard but keep my dog inside when I’m not at home. I’ve got a doggie cam and check in (and talk) to my dog frequently if I have to be gone!
