Dog Boarding Encinitas

“I think our dog had more fun during our vacation than we did! Linda and Zach were great. They sent lots of updates and were very accommodating with a last-minute schedule change. Our dog came home happy and tired after so much fun play time. We would definitely use them again.”

About: I’ve taken care of several dogs over the years from close friends and family. I’m very keen on listening to every dogs’ needs and helping them get their energy out. I’m a part time student, so I have plenty of free time to care for dogs. I focus on my studies mostly at night, which give me the rest of the day to focus on dog sitting. My family’s fenced in yard is perfect for your dogs playtime and bathroom time, and inside house your dog is allowed to unwind and get food/treats.

“Carol was the perfect sitter for my dog June. She took great care of her and gave regular updates. I'd highly recommend her if you are looking for a dog sitter”

“Elizabeth took great care of my dog Monty over the weekend! She was reliable, communicative whenever I would message, and seemed they both enjoyed spending time with each other. Monty was definitely in good hands! I would book again and recommend to anyone looking for a trustworthy sitter!”

“Cynthia was so great with my Aussie Loki. Her flexibility on a last minute stay request saved my trip and my dogs weekend without us. Would absolutely have Loki back and grateful for folks like Cynthia who open up their homes to our fur babies.”

Eric M.

“Lori is very nice and quick to respond to messages, usually including a photo of my sweet boy, Otis, to ease my worried mind and heart while I’m away and missing him so much!!! I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a dog sitter!”

Savannah C.

“Kris and Dan are amazing! From the first time we connected, it was clear how genuine and kind they are—and how deeply they love pets. Winnie was super happy and relaxed in their care, and Kris kept us updated with the sweetest pictures. We feel so incredibly lucky and grateful to have met them and trust them completely. Kris and Dan—we can’t thank you enough for everything. Knowing Winnie has found her extended family means the world to us!”

“Julia was great with our Pup and she came back very happy and well taken care of. She provided daily photos and updates and was very responsive to us. We will certainly be using her again next time we are out of town.”

Sid G.

“Cherie is the GOAT! She is so kind and made our Fanta feel right at home with her family and her sweet Luna pup. Even before we left town, Cherie was incredibly helpful! I am so grateful that we were able to do a meet-and-greet (our pup is anxious) and that Cherie could pick Fanta up from our home when it was time for us to leave town. We will be doing more traveling soon and look forward to reconnecting with Cherie for her extraordinary care. :)”

“Lan is truly a blessing. We have been so gratified by her kindness to our Strawberry girl. Photos and other updates made us very certain that Strawberry was always safe, comfortable, and well cared for. Lan's love for the dogs she cares for is abundant and on full display. We will definitely book again when we need to travel.”

“May took very good care of our senior dog during the a holidays. She was attentive and sent us great pictures during her stay. She is usually nervous and stressed when boarding, but was happy and not anxious at all when arriving home. She went easily back to her normal routines. We are very happy with the special care provided to her and will absolutely use their services again! Thank you!”

About: I have pet sit both at other houses and my own. Both walk ins and over night stays. Very responsive and responsible pet owner who is willing to care for your pet as their own! I work a few part time jobs and also work from home, so I love to be home and am home as often as possible. Can give good care and attention if needed. I have a fenced in yard for any animals that need outdoor time. I can also keep doors closed if necessary as well. All depends on your preferences.

“This was my first experience with Rover and Diana was fabulous. My little one is a nervous Nellie and Diana (and her dog, Buddy) were the perfect fit. I was gone 2 and a half weeks and she took exceptional care of Exie. Diana was very good about all the little doggie details: walking schedule, food. She is very kind, calm and caring. Could not recommend her more highly.”

About: With over 30 years of experience, I provide personalized care that prioritizes your pet’s comfort and happiness. What sets me apart is my focus on behavioral consistency and specialized attention for different life stages. I have extensive experience in puppy training support, using positive reinforcement to maintain your training goals, as well as providing gentle senior care for older pets who prefer a slower pace and extra companionship. Whether it’s high-energy playtime or calming cuddles, I tailor every visit to match your pet's unique personality and energy levels. My background as a professional photographer makes me a uniquely patient and observant pet sitter, as I am already trained to anticipate subtle body language and capture a pet's truest personality. I bring that same artistic eye and calm focus to my pet care, ensuring your "best friend" stays engaged and comfortable in their familiar routine. Because my 2026 photography schedule is flexible, I am now fully open for pet sitting and can offer the reliable, high-quality care your pets deserve. As a special bonus, you won't just get a safe and happy pet—you will also receive beautiful, high-quality "souvenir" photos of their daily adventures while you are away. In 2026, creating a safe and trustworthy environment for your pet is my highest priority. Whether I am caring for them in my home or yours, I begin every engagement with a thorough meet-and-greet to align on routines and tour the property for potential safety hazards. In your home, I strictly follow all security protocols, including locking gates, managing alarm codes, and ensuring hazardous items like cleaning supplies or loose cables are inaccessible. To build lasting trust, I maintain transparent communication by providing real-time updates and professional-quality photo check-ins throughout the day. My approach is designed to preserve your pet's familiar routine, reducing their stress while ensuring your home remains secure and respected in your absence.

“Lisa and Jeff watched our 10 week old puppy for 4 nights at their home and did an exceptional job taking care of him. We have never boarded a pet overnight and are just so thrilled with how kind and caring Lisa and Jeff were. Lisa was communicative from the start and even took time to meet with us before and get to know Z even not knowing if we book for sure or not, which we appreciated. They sent us updated multiple times a day and we could truly tell our little guy was having a blast with his new friends. We even felt sad he had to leave his new friends to come back home! That's how great Lisa and Jeff cared for our Z. We are soooo thankful!!! Thank you Lisa and Jeff!!”
