Doggy Day Care Riviera

“Bradley and Carolyn were fantastic sitters for Rocky. They kept him super active and entertained all three days of daycare, and Rocky came home very happy and tired each evening. Their location was super convenient for travelers staying or visiting in downtown Santa Barbara. Will definitely use again!”

About: I have worked at a cat boarding facility for the better part of five years. I have many pets and experience with the following; medicine administration, injecting insulin, monitoring the cats’ health and appetite, cleaning, and making sure each and every cat got the adequate attention they needed. In addition to this I have also pet sat for dogs and cats for years. Most of customers were regulars and I got to get to know each animal very well. I have also had both a dog and a cat my whole life, so I know what it is like to not only constantly care for a pet, but also love and worry about them, which is why I take such pride in ensuring my customers have complete peace knowing I will care for their pets! I am a college student and am available most afternoons, but have more freedoms Tuesdays, Thursdays, and the weekends. My schedule can be very flexible though. My main concern in caring for pets is their health and safety. I will always make sure they are doing well and have all the care they need in that aspect. I also will make sure they are happy and receiving the attention from me they need. I will always follow any and all instructions left on caring for pets.

“I can't recommend Sandy enough. We were in a bind needing a last-minute sitter, and she was incredibly responsive and flexible. She made the logistics simple. My fiancé had no trouble at all coordinating drop-off and pick-up. While we were away, she sent photo updates that showed our dog relaxed and happy. When we picked him up, he was clearly well-cared for and in great spirits. Sandy truly saved the day. Thank you!”

“Gio, our 4 month old puppy, had a great day with Ryan! Such a wonderful 1st experience being in this environment away from home. We will be back! Thank you Ryan! We appreciated you caring for Gio so well today.”

“Jacob and his wife are wonderful to work with. They cared for our Bella, and sent us pictures and updates throughout the day. This is our 2nd time working together and we highly recommend them!”

About: I grew up with dogs, love taking care of them and love to walk for hours! I am offering this service until I get a dog of my own :) I work from home with flexibility in my schedule. I love to get out for breaks during the day and live close to a dog park. I have a gated outdoor space and live in a dog friendly neighborhood. I also cover up my furniture so that the dogs can go on the couch.

“Our dog had a great time with Damian and immediately bonded with him. Damian communicated clearly and promptly. We look forward to working with him again.”

“I'm so happy that I found Honey! She and her pup Rosie were a great match for Bucky. Honey sent photos and updates often, and was very quick to respond. She was intuative with Bucky's needs and I knew he was in great hands. She has a comfortable home and bed that Bucky didn't want to get out of. This is my first experience on this app and I have no hesitation leaving Bucky with her in the future. Thanks again honey! A++”

About: I work from home, so your dog is never alone for long. My fenced yard means safe outdoor play every day, and regular photo updates mean you'll actually be able to relax on your trip. I have a special needs dog of my own, so I have a particular soft spot for dogs that need a little extra care, but I'm equally comfortable with puppies, seniors, anxious dogs, and medication administration. I know exactly how much trust you're placing in me, and I don't take that lightly. Your dog gets a real home, real attention, and a lot of love. I work from home full time, which means your dog has company throughout the day rather than waiting for someone to come home. Walks, yard time, and cuddles fit naturally into my routine, I'm not squeezing pet care around a commute or office hours. Gladly have your pet a part of my day. My home is fully fenced, so outdoor time is always safe and supervised. Inside, dogs are welcome wherever they're most comfortable.. on the sofa, in the bedroom, wherever helps them settle in. I follow each owner's instructions closely, including crating if that's part of their dog's routine. I'll always ask about your dog's habits, triggers, and preferences before your stay so there are no surprises for either of us.

About: I’m a caring and dedicated pet sitter who understands how much your pets mean to you. I treat every pet as if they were my own, taking the time to learn their unique personalities, routines, and needs. Whether it’s feeding, walks, playtime, or medication, I provide thoughtful and attentive care to help your pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I’ll keep you updated and make sure you have peace of mind knowing your furry family members are being cared for with kindness and compassion. I work Wednesday through Saturday from 10-6pm which leaves me available all day Sunday through Tuesday, as well as early mornings, and late evenings, and overnight care the rest of the week. I’m happy to accommodate pet sitting, walks, drop-in visits, and overnight stays whenever my schedule allows. I strive to be flexible and reliable so your pets receive the care, attention, and companionship they deserve. I take the time to follow your pet’s normal routine, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medication, and plenty of love and attention. I’ll also help keep your home tidy by cleaning up after your pet, refreshing water bowls, and respecting your space as if it were my own. Throughout my visits or stay, I’ll provide regular updates and photos so you can relax knowing your pets are safe, happy, and well cared for while you’re away.

“Lauren was so great to work with...she responded to the daycare request promptly and immediately jumped into asking lots of questions around Remys care. I knew he'd be in good hands. Thank you for the care Lauren...”

They also took a last minute booking which was so helpful and appreciated. Great communication and regular updates. Highly recommend!”

“Stacey was able to accommodate a last-minute booking with my two pups for daycare. One of my dogs takes a bit more time to warm up and Stacey was sweet and patient about it. My other little guy made a friend during his visit. Excellent communication, sending updates with pictures/video. I'm looking forward to booking more visits with her!”

“I am so happy that my first experience with Rover was with Nicole! She was so helpful and knowledgable. She made me feel totally comfortable and even excited to have Cora (my pup) spend the day with her. I will definitely reach out to Nicole again!”

Genevieve S.

“JP was great! We visited Santa Barbara with our lab. For a day with dog-unfriendly activities, we booked JP's service. JP took our lab to a dog park in the morning and then walked her in the afternoon. It was a fun day. Would highly recommend JP!”
