Peace of Mind for YOU and your Dog!

I live in San Luis Obispo in a house with a gated outdoor area perfect for dogs to play and sit in the sun. After caring for my dog for 8 years, I pay attention to the needs and disposition of other dogs. I walk my dog at least 2-3 times a day. I also have a car in case of any emergency as well! My house has 2 bedrooms and is 1300 sq feet. I have dog beds and a comfy sofa that will put your dog in heaven.If your dog is used to sleeping in bed with you....no worries.....I am happy to have another dog to snuggle at night. I am very flexible with pick-up/drop-off times so please don't hesitate to ask if you have a unique situation. I am here to help! Please note that I take up to 4 dogs total but am very particular about the dog clients I take so that they are a great fit together!

My dog loves staying with Kara for daycare when I am in town. She is a great communicator and takes great care of my dog and the others that are with her.

Our dog had a great time at Kara’s place. He got lots of snuggles and came back a happy pup.
