Doggy Day Care Mission Valley

About: Aloha! I’m May, your go‑to dog sitter who treats every pup like family. Located right in Mission Valley off the 163 freeway (by Fashion Valley Mall) I’m based right here in San Diego with a cozy, dog‑friendly home, a fully gated yard, and — pup favorite alert — the trolley literally stops at my house, which means built‑in excitement, enrichment, and endless tail‑wagging entertainment. I specialize in young puppy dog care, senior dog care, and helping dogs feel safe, confident, and loved while their humans are away. Whether your pup needs structure, patience, medication reminders, or just someone who understands their quirks, I’ve got them covered. I’m also a proud dog mom to Von, my Dachshund‑Terrier mix with main‑character energy. Also, it's important to note Von is NOT fixed. He’s friendly, social, and loves having new buddies over for sleepovers. Your dog will enjoy a calm, happy environment with plenty of playtime, cuddles, and supervised outdoor time. With me, your pup gets: 🐾 A safe, gated yard for zoomies 🌞 Daily walks + enrichment 🐶 Puppy training support 💛 Senior dog patience + comfort 📸 Photo updates so you never miss a moment 🏡 A warm, clean, loving home environment 🎉 Trolley‑watching adventures (trust me, dogs LOVE this) I’m here to make your dog feel at home, keep their routine steady, and give you total peace of mind. When your pup stays with me, they’re treated like royalty — because that’s exactly what they deserve. Pet care fits seamlessly into my daily routine because I work from home and have the flexibility to give each dog plenty of attention throughout the day. My home is spacious, calm, and fully fenced, so pups can safely explore, sunbathe, or play whenever they want. I take regular breaks to walk, train, or check in with the dogs, and I love incorporating enrichment into their day. The trolley even stops right at my home — a fun little highlight the dogs always get excited about. Because I’m home full‑time, your pup gets consistent supervision, affection, and a steady routine that keeps them happy and relaxed. Safety, trust, and comfort are the foundation of how I care for pets. Whether a dog stays in my home or I’m caring for them in a client’s home, I focus on creating a calm, structured, and supervised environment where every pup feels secure. In my home: I have a spacious layout that allows dogs to relax, explore, and settle in without feeling overwhelmed. My yard is fully gated and secure, giving pups a safe space for outdoor time, sunbathing, and play. I work from home, so dogs are never left alone for long periods — they get consistent supervision, affection, and routine. I also keep doors latched, food stored safely, and use baby gates when needed to manage space and keep everyone comfortable. The trolley stops right at my home, which adds a fun enrichment moment the dogs genuinely enjoy.

“Kaitlin is fantastic! My puppy loved them.”

“Alvin was able to accommodate my puppy last minute which I was grateful for. He is very responsive and a great communicator. I received updates and photos throughout the day which was appreciated. My puppy seemed to have had a great time and came home tired which is always a good sign! I would highly recommend him as a sitter!”

“Pamela was amazing with Bella! Very communicative and we felt very comfortable leaving Bella with her. Will recommend to anyone in need of daycare for their pup.”

About: As a fellow dog parent, I know firsthand how important it is to find someone you trust with your dog. I care for every pup like they’re my own! With patience, love, and lots of attention. I’m comfortable with dogs of all sizes and temperaments. Whether your dog is full of energy or just wants some company, I adapt to their needs to make sure they feel safe, happy, and at home. I work from home, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to easily accommodate dog walking, drop-ins, or extended stays throughout the day. Since I already care for my own dog, pet care is a natural part of my daily routine: walks, playtime, and attention are built into my day! When caring for pets in my home, I create a safe, comfortable, and loving environment where dogs feel relaxed and happy. I provide plenty of playtime, regular walks, and lots of cuddles, making sure each dog’s needs and routines are followed closely. Since I have my own dog, your pet will also get social time and companionship. If I’m caring for pets in your home, I treat your space with respect and maintain your dog’s usual schedule for feeding, walking, and play. I keep you updated with messages and photos so you can feel confident your pet is well cared for even when you’re away.

About: A lifelong dog lover with years of experience, especially caring for senior pups. While I specialize in small dogs, I also enjoy looking after cats and medium breeds. Since I work from home, I have a flexible schedule and can stick closely to your pet’s normal routine. I primarily care for small-breed dogs and always take the time to make sure they feel comfortable, secure, and loved. I provide a calm, clean, and safe environment where your pet will receive plenty of attention and care by keeping my home clutter free and boarding one pet at a time.

About: Your pet is family and I treat them that way. I've spent 10+ years caring for dogs of all sizes, ages, and needs, including seniors, special needs pups, and pets requiring oral or injected medication. I take that responsibility seriously and follow your routines to the letter. I'm based in San Diego and love exploring everything this city has to offer like beach walks, neighborhood trails, and Balboa Park, and your dog gets to come along for all of it. Since I have no pets of my own, your animal gets my complete, undivided attention from the moment they arrive. Whether your pup needs extra patience, medical care, or just someone who will love them like you do, I've got them covered! A quick note: I work from home, so dogs who are generally calm tend to be the best fit. If your pup tends to bark a lot at noises, visitors, or being left alone, it might not be the smoothest match. Pet care is a central part of my daily routine, not an afterthought. I have dedicated availability throughout the week and structure my days around making sure every animal in my care gets consistent attention, timely walks, and plenty of love. I am not juggling a busy office schedule or rushing home after a long commute. When your pet is with me, they are my priority and my day is built around them. I follow your instructions exactly. Please send over your pet's routine, any medical needs, feeding schedule, and quirks and I will stick to it. I am experienced with medication administration both oral and injected, and comfortable with dogs who need extra care or patience. Your peace of mind matters as much as your pet's happiness.

“I inquired about a last-minute booking, and Gabrielle was incredibly accommodating and flexible with the schedule. She also took great care of everything, being very meticulous with feeding. Thanks to her sending photo and video updates so quickly and frequently, I was able to fully enjoy my time with total peace of mind. She is a wonderful and sweet sitter! ❤️”

“Brianna was amazing! She took care of my dog like her own and even helped longer than expected when we got delayed on the road. Super kind, responsible and clearly loves animals. My corgi came back happy and calm - couldn’t ask for better care. Highly recommend!”
