Doggy Day Care in North City, San Diego, CA

“Lulu has separation anxiety and needs time to warm up with other dogs as well. However, May and Marc know what to do and how to handle the situation with Lulu and make her so welcome and comfortable in a new environment. When we were away from her, my mind was at ease, and they shared many photos and video. If I need a sitter for Lulu in SD, I will definitely contact May again.”

“I had a wonderful experience with Justin and Tara! They were very responsive and friendly from the start, which made me feel at ease leaving my dog in their care. Throughout the stay, they sent me frequent updates with texts and pictures, which I really appreciated. It was clear that they truly care about the dogs they look after, and my pup was well taken care of and happy. I would definitely recommend them to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog sitter!”

“Alana and her husband were so amazing to Sadie! Sadie is normally a little timid at first but when I picked her up she didn’t want to go! She had a great time and I would definitely recommend Alana to anyone in the future. Her and her husband are total dog people!!”

“Vivian (Yan) took great care of our boisterous teenaged golden retriever. She's very experienced around dogs (she's raised a very polite Rottweiler) and has so much love for them that it shows in everything she does. We are grateful that she lives only a few minutes from our house making our weekly drop offs very easy.”

About: American Red cross Cat and Dog First Aid certified, updated very recently. I’ve taken care of my family pets since I was four years old, and got my first dog of my own, a teacup yorkie named Sophie, who was my support dog when I was around 13 years old. Ever since then I’ve had a wonderful support dog named Tommy, and now I currently am training my dog Stevie and my puppy, Chloe to be psychiatric service dogs, working with a professional trainer who thinks I’m a natural! I am a great trainer and I am more than happy to offer that service if you’d like, but i’m not a certified trainer yet! I know pet first aid and cpr. I also had another puppy who lived for just under a year, who passed during a routine anesthesia procedure, which was devastating, but now I know she lives on in my puppy Chloe. I am disabled (chronic lower back pain) but i have mobility aids, can walk around your home/my home unaided, can carry small dogs if requested, and can take your pup out as many times as you’d like. I have a HUGE backyard with plenty of grass, and so I can play with the pups/be outside with them as much as you’d like! Currently in the house here I have Stevie and Chloe, but they can be crated/in a separate part of the house as much as you’d like. I will have one of my parents home so they can keep them 100% completely out of sight if that’s your preference! I’m looking to become a dogsitter because, honestly, dogs are my favorite, and i love connecting with dogs with positive reinforcement and love! I’m so beyond excited for the opportunity to meet your dogs! I currently work remotely part time so i’ll be home all day and all night, and i make my own hours so I can take pretty much any job, any time, for any length of time. When i’m at home without any other pups here, I take care of my dogs Stevie and Chloe full time. They sleep with me (unless you’d rather your pup sleep up here!) so have special puppy guards on the bed so they don’t accidentally fall off while they sleep up here ever! If you’d like, i can keep my dogs with one of my parents so your pups don’t interact. I have a big fenced yard that not even the smallest puppy could get out from! I have two extremely well behaved soon to be service dogs that i’m currently training, They are very small Yorkies, Stevie is 6 years old and about 7 pounds, and Chloe is 5 months and about 2.5 pounds. They can be involved as much or as little as you prefer, but all dogs in our home need to be fully vaccinated please. In your home, I would do everything a dog needs, I’d make sure water is full and available 24/7, i’d take your pups out for playing/potty breaks as often as you’d prefer, i’d feed them and give medication if needed (i have lots of experience giving puppies, adult, and senior dogs medications!) If you let me know your preferences, i’m sure i can treat your dog with so much care and love, and help them feel their routines aren’t too different then they are with you, if that’s your preference! And I LOVE dog cuddles, and cat cuddles! Also, my brother is a vet tech that works at Rancho Bernardo Vetrinary Clinic so I have him, my vet, and my trusted vet emergency hospital all on speed dial, just in case! If needed I can hop in a car and take your pups to the park, the vet, the er, to get groomed, etc. (I will never put your dog in my car without consent, of course!!)

About: Personalized Dog Care: When a dog comes to my place, it’s like a VIP staying at a resort — comfy, safe, and well taken care of. I limit my care to two or three dogs at a time, ensuring each dog receives individual attention in a safe and calm environment. I can closely monitor health, behavior, and comfort, and tailor activities or routines to each dog’s needs. As a dog owner myself, I treat every dog in my care as if they were my own — with affection, patience, and dedication. Health & Safety: Only pets with up-to-date vaccinations and current flea prevention are accepted. With your permission, I may contact your veterinarian or pet insurance provider to verify vaccination records, if applicable. Pet insurance is recommended but not required. Rates & Schedule: My rates cover a 24-hour stay (for example, 10 AM to 10 AM, or any 24-hour period). Pickup & Drop-off Times: I generally accept drop-offs and pick-ups between 8 AM and 8 PM. For times outside this range, please contact me in advance. Late Pickup / Extended Stay: If your dog is picked up later than the 24-hour period, an additional fee may apply. There are always people at home, ensuring that your dog is never left alone for a long time. Knowing that your dog is never left unattended gives you peace of mind about their safety and well-being. • Daily Walks: I provide regular walks to ensure your dog gets the exercise and stimulation they need. • Fenced Yard: My home features a secure, fenced yard where your dog can safely play and explore. • Feeding Instructions: I strictly follow your feeding instructions, ensuring your dog maintains their regular diet and schedule.

About: I’m a huge animal lover who grew up with pets. I have always enjoyed taking care of them. I have experience with dogs, cats, and fish. I can do basic grooming, feeding, walking, playing, and cuddling for your pets. I can also give them medication, follow special diets, and deal with emergencies. What makes me different from other sitters is my passion for learning new skills and improving my pet care knowledge. I’m planning to get certified in animal training and health. I have also volunteered at local shelters and rescue groups. I’m especially interested in training puppies and senior care, because I think these are the most challenging and rewarding stages of a pet’s life. I use positive reinforcement to teach puppies basic commands, socialization, and housebreaking. I also give gentle and compassionate care to senior pets, who may need extra attention, comfort, and support. I love all animals and I treat them like they are my own. I will keep you updated and send you photos of your pets while you are away. I will make sure your pets are happy, healthy, and safe while you are gone. Pet care is a part of my daily or weekly routine, depending on the service I offer and the availability of the clients. I usually have a flexible schedule, but I prefer to work in the mornings and evenings, when most pets need their walks, meals, and playtime. I can also accommodate overnight stays, drop-in visits, or extended stays, depending on the client's needs and preferences. I care for pets in my home and/or the client's home with utmost respect, responsibility, and professionalism. I always follow the client's instructions and preferences regarding their pet's care, such as feeding, walking, playing, sleeping, and medication. I also respect the client's privacy and property, and I do not touch or use anything that is not related to the pet's care. I always keep the pet's environment clean, safe, and comfortable. I make sure there are no hazards or dangers that could harm the pet, such as wires, chemicals, sharp objects, or escape routes. I also provide the pet with adequate water, food, toys, bedding, and litter. I always communicate with the client before, during, and after the service. I send them updates and photos of their pet's activities and well-being. I also inform them of any issues or concerns that may arise during the service. I am honest, trustworthy, and reliable. I always show up on time and complete the service as agreed. I also have a backup plan in case of emergencies or unforeseen circumstances. I have a valid driver's license and a car, so I can transport the pet to the vet or another location if needed. I also have a first-aid kit and a pet CPR certification, so I can handle minor injuries or health problems that may occur during the service.

“Harriet had a fantastic day with Lena and the 2 other dogs she had for company today! She was very reliable with her communication and sent adorable photo updates. We also appreciate the time Lena took for our meet and greet, where her patience and love to care for everyone’s furry family members really shined through. Thank you again Lena; we’d love to use you again in the future!”

“I recently used Yaniv’s doggy day care service to take care of my 7 month puppy. I must say that I was thoroughly impressed with their service. One of the main things that stood out to me was how much attention they gave to my puppy. They took him for multiple walks in a day, which was great because it kept him active and engaged. I highly recommend Yaniv to anyone who is looking for someone to take care of their pet while they’re away.”

Fur-baby-first home where pups are safe, loved, and spoiled. 🐾 Pet care is naturally part of my day.

About: I have always had pets growing up as a child and my love for them has grown into my adulthood even more. I have a passion for learning and understanding all different types of animals. My experience in Pet Care is from having my own pets and caring for family and friends. I am pretty open nowadays. Ready to take care of your furry babies as much as needed! Also, have my helpers ( my kids off school, are ready to help)! Right now I am open to come and take care of your pets! Always willing to come first to get to know your pets, and introduce myself.

“I am thrilled to have found Deborah on Rover. My little newly adopted rescue dog has separation anxiety and I’ve needed to have her in daycare several times a week. Deborah and her family and dog, Teddy, have provided a second home for my pup. She has thrived in the safe, caring, loving environment of their home. Deborah is reliable and responsive, and has been very accommodating to my needs. She is cheerful, friendly and kind, always giving me peace of mind while I’m away.”
