“Jennifer and her family are great! Bennett loves playing their dogs and cuddling on the couch with everyone. Jennifer makes the whole process so easy and is great at communicating needs, updates, and photos. I will absolutely continue taking Bennett to Jennifer for daycare or boarding and would recommend her if you’re looking for somewhere safe and comfortable for your dog to stay.”

“Sandy really loved her time with Denise and Quarky. She tried to run back into Denise's house as we were putting her in the car, so we'll definitely have to book again, the next time we're in Santa Cruz. Denise was easy to communicate with and drop-off/pick-up was a breeze.”

“I could not recommend Yajaira enough! She took great care of my dog, Toby. She sent so many photos and updates, it was amazing. I rested well on my time away knowing Toby was in great hands.”

“Jenna and her family took great care of Dudley for his first day with her. He really liked their dog and seemed to warm up to everyone quickly. He was nice and tired from lots of play and he even got a nice brush and fluff! I appreciated them taking him very last minute - we will definitely rebook! Thank you again!”


“Bumpy’s first stay with Keren was perfect. He was so excited to see he was going back to her home when we drove up. Bumpy and I had done a meet and greet with Keren and another family, the other family was nice and I could tell they love dogs but Bump didn’t seem to be very comfortable. During our visit he stayed close to me and didn’t do much exploring. He had such a different reaction to Keren and her family, from the minute we walked in her door he was gone, sniffing, exploring, meeting the dog of the house. To see such a marked difference in his reaction made my chose easy, he was letting me know which family he preferred. So to pick him up at the end of his first stay with Keren and find him happy and tired after a trip to the beach and a walk was wonderful. I could tell he had bonded with Keren and I will not hesitate scheduling another visit.”

Forever Animal Lover! Pet care naturally fits my daily rhythm—I’m home managing kids and household, so feeding, walks, playtime, and affection easily blend into my weekday routine. I'm home most of the day but may step out of the house a few times a day for 20 min-1.5 hours, for school pick ups or a quick work out. Your pup can come along for the walk/ride or stay safely kenneled until my immediate return. I can pick up Dogs in the Live Oak Neighborhood for Doggie Day Care between 8:30-11am. Weekend availability is more variable depending on what the family plans are. Your pup will enjoy a calm, structured, and caring environment within our family home on a quiet, low-traffic street in a popular walking neighborhood. With a secure courtyard and a spacious, private backyard for play, enrichment, and relaxation, your dog will have plenty of safe space to explore. Boarding pups are kenneled overnight from about 9 pm to 6 am, with a potty walk right before bed and again first thing in the morning while my coffee brews. Your pup can count on at least an hour of daily exercise—often more—and will be fed according to your established routine, with fresh water always available. When I’m home, pups are free to roam the house, enjoying companionship and comfort alongside our friendly indoor-outdoor cat.
“Kayla was great with Pan! I left him with her 4 days in a row and he was super excited to see her by day 2. She was enthusiastic, consistent with pictures, and clearly enjoyed him. Would hire again!!”

“Michaela totally put my mind at ease for my frightened dog, answering my questions and asking great ones to make sure it was a successful visit. Her dog is very well trained and helped her feel comfortable. She ended up having the best time and I had a hard time getting her in the car!”

“Nieves is such a nice person! Our dog Buddy doesn’t usually warm up to people very quickly, but he was best buds with Nieves from the get go. She and her grandkids got along with Buddy like Mac and cheese. We really appreciated her taking him for the day so that we could go for a long mountain bike ride. We highly recommend her to any dog parent! She’s fantastic!”

“Yu took amazing care of Cleo as if she were her own! She sent me regular updates and took her to the park to play fetch and on walks. Cleo was very tired and happy when I picked her up!”


“Carlie was so amazing and responsive after we had many changes up to the point of our booking. (Sorry Carlie!) She was so sweet with donut and we appreciated the pictures and care she took to assure us that she would have a great time. We sincerely appreciated Carlie’s flexibility and kindness - would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for services in the area!”

“We needed an impromptu dog sitter to watch our puppy while we visited the Broadwalk. Nohemi was great with Zelda! She accommodated our instructions, took such great care of our puppy, and sent us lots of pictures and updates. We picked up a very happy, tired pup!! Thank you!”


“Debra was very attentive and had the utmost respect when watching over our pups. Everything in her profile lives up to She was very responsive since we didn’t give her a definitive time when we were going to drop the pups off and was very flexible and accommodating. I will definitely use her when I return to Morro Bay and highly recommend her to anyone who needs babysitting. She constantly updated us with Picts and she has a huge backyard that allowed them to run around.”
