Doggy Day Care in Serra Mesa, San Diego

“Stephanie is absolutely amazing, she’s great with communication and our guy felt right at home with her! Added bonus that he is BFFs with her dog Gravy! We loved her daily updates and photos, makes us feel so comfortable knowing she’s making our baby feel so loved and cared for while we’re away!”

“Colin was sooo good with my dog, Fluffy- who can be particular with new people. He is patient, detail oriented, thoughtful, and provided great updates throughout the day. His home is clean and safe for dogs. I’ll continue to use him as a sitter for Fluffy for as long as he’ll have him!”

“Liz was great with Lovey! I can tell Lovey had a good time spending the day with Liz and her kids and other pups. She clearly knows what she's doing and I will definitely book again.”

“Ruby had a great time! Thank you Jason for the walks and cuddles with Ruby and all the sweet pictures! It was comforting to know she was being well taken care of while I spent the afternoon sightseeing.”

“Cristina was willing to be flexible when it came to my schedule and took good care of Nova while she was there, even when 40lbs of silent husky decided to lay on her chest for kisses and love 😆”

“Every pet parent’s wish is that their fur child gets the same love and care at a sitter’s as they do at home. Ann provides exactly that. She is responsible (arranges meet and greets of all dogs she cares for) and adheres to all provided care instructions as well as send picture/video updates throughout the day. I love that dogs are allowed to roam free in her house as it provides a more “home-like” environment compared to other typical boarding facilities. She is great to communicate with regarding scheduling and understanding when emergencies come up. Ann has been my dog Ollie’s go to daycare and boarding service for the past two years. But honestly, she’s gone above and beyond to be more than that. Ollie enjoys spending time at her house and even gets invited to her dog’s birthday party every year. We honestly can’t recommend her enough!”

“Our dog had a great time staying with Carolina! She updated us regularly with messages and pictures, showing how much fun our Duke was having!”

“Sam made our first doggy daycare experience super easy! You can tell he really cares about each dog that he hosts and he was wonderful with my very anxious Vizsla. We got multiple pictures and updates throughout the day, which helped put us at ease. He’s got a great yard for the dogs to play in. Highly recommend!”

“Lola had a wonderful week of doggy daycare with Heidi and her dog Charlie! Heidi sent plenty of updates and photos, was flexible with my schedule, and helped this anxious dog parent breathe easy while working. Thanks, Heidi, and I look forward to booking again! :D Highly recommend.”

About: With over 10 years of experience as a dedicated pet owner, I take great pride in providing loving, attentive care to every animal I welcome into my home. I currently live with two wonderful dogs: Sage, a calm and gentle 9-year-old retired Greyhound, and Willow, an energetic and social Greyhound/Doberman mix puppy who thrives in the company of other dogs. My passion for animals extends beyond care—I also enjoy capturing their unique personalities through photography. Be sure to check out the photos I’ve taken of past guests! My goal is to ensure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and truly at home while in my care. I work from home on an alternate schedules. I am home most weekends, but please let me in advance. So that I can dedicate time to play and care for your pet! I live in a house with a securely gated, spacious backyard that offers plenty of room for pups to run and play (see photos!). Your pet will also have the companionship of my two friendly dogs.

About: I've been taking care of dog since I was very young. Grew up with three dogs to five dogs at any given time. They really are man's best friend. I work from home, which allows me to spend much time with any pets or animals that I watch and provide them a nurturing environment. safety is very important, also the ability to understand the dogs needs and able to assist them. Also exercise is very healthy for animals especially dogs, so a walk is always healthy.

About: Hi! I’m a lifelong dog lover and proud dog parent to a 4-year-old Boston Terrier who gets along great with other dogs. I’ve been around dogs since I was a kid and have also dog-sat for family over the years, so I understand how important it is to leave your pup with someone you trust. As a teacher, I have summers off and work short hours during the school year (done by 2 PM), so your dog will get plenty of attention and care throughout the day. I live in a dog-friendly apartment with a large dog run on-site and several parks nearby—perfect for daily adventures. When your pup stays with me, they’ll get lots of walks (at least 3 a day), cuddle time on the couch, and plenty of love. I focus on creating a calm, safe environment that feels like a second home—whether your dog is playful, shy, or just wants a buddy to nap with. I treat every dog like family and tailor the experience to what makes them most comfortable. Whether it’s belly rubs, park strolls, or just a quiet nap spot, I’m here to give your pup the care they deserve while you’re away! As a teacher, I have summers off and am home full-time during that time. During the school year, I work until 2 PM on weekdays, so I still have plenty of time each day for walks, feeding, playtime, and companionship. Pet care fits naturally into my routine since I already have a Boston Terrier who’s on a consistent schedule. I prioritize daily walks (morning, evening, and night), outdoor time, and lots of cuddles throughout the day. I keep a clean, calm, and pet-friendly environment. I live in a secure apartment with a large, fenced dog run and access to nearby parks for safe, enjoyable walks. I’m mindful of each dog’s needs, whether that means crate time, free roam, or quiet space to relax. I also follow any care instructions closely and keep pet parents updated with regular photos and messages for peace of mind. Trust, comfort, and consistent care are my top priorities.

“Jade was great! She responded quickly and was able to watch our Alfie last minute for us! Will definitely use her again when in the area!”

About: I’ve had 2 years of experience as a proud dog mom to my friendly black lab, which has taught me a lot about daily care, training, and understanding dog behavior. In addition to that, I’ve regularly looked after friends’ and family’s pets—both dogs and cats—including puppies and senior pets. Whether it’s going for walks, giving medication, or just providing company and playtime, I truly enjoy making pets feel safe and loved while their humans are away. I work from home, so I have a flexible schedule that allows me to give pets plenty of attention throughout the day. I walk my own dog twice a day, and on weekends, my husband and I enjoy taking him to the dog park or on a hike. Pet care is already a big part of my daily routine, and I’m happy to include your pet in our calm, dog-friendly home! I have a fully fenced yard where dogs can play and explore safely. My own dog is naturally friendly and loves the company of other dogs—he’s good with smaller pups and very aware of their size and space. I always supervise playtime and make sure every pet feels comfortable and secure in our home.

About: From my experience fostering rescue dogs, I've learned how to attentively care for seniors, those with special needs, and I’m comfortable handling ones that pull on walks as well. I'm certified in pet CPR and first aid, and I’m continuing my education in basic obedience training. I also have private insurance to keep both your pet and property safe and secure! I really enjoy spending time with all types of dogs and can't wait to meet yours and give them some much-deserved love and attention while you’re away or busy! As a stay-at-home mom I'm able to meet most last minute or same day pet care needs. I'm up early and frequently available on weekends and holidays. I always provide lots of attention and affection to ensure your doggy's safety and happiness while you're away. I carefully follow all care instructions and will verify anything with you if we haven't discussed it previously. Making sure your pup is happy and healthy is truly my top priority! I really try to go above and beyond for your baby and treat them as I would want my own treated. 💛 ** If it’s a weekday walk/drop-in before 5pm, I will be bringing my two kiddos along. At NO time will they hold the leash, but they do love to pet, play, and get kisses! On weekends I can accommodate most times without them, but if your baby is child-friendly, they’d still love to come and help love on them! ** 𝑾𝒂𝒍𝒌𝒔: I provide pet waste bags, cold filtered water, and a collapsible bowl to drink from. I also use training treats to redirect any unwanted behaviors or to distract from reactive dogs we may come across. Additionally, I can help reinforce basic obedience you may be teaching at home, just let me know beforehand! Please note, if it is 85°or warmer, I only do 10-15 min potty break walks to avoid risk of heat exhaustion/stroke. The rest of the time will be either spent playing indoors or sitting outside in the shade loving on them. 𝑫𝒂𝒚𝒄𝒂𝒓𝒆: We keep a pet gate on our stairs, as the upstairs is a dog-free zone for our cats to relax during the day. We have a small, fenced yard that we mostly just use to play fetch or with some messier toys; I’ll be walking your pup for all their bathroom breaks. We are also just a two minute walk away from our local dog park and go multiple times a day, weather depending. I may leave the house for up to 2 hours a day and so cannot provide for constant care needs. All dogs must be up-to-date on vaccines and flea/tick preventative, in good health (except chronic conditions), and house-trained. I can accommodate 6am-8pm schedules; arrival time is flexible but pickup time is firm. However, more than 10 hours of care per day will require an additional fee. I currently do not accept more than 1 dog at a time nor dogs larger than 55 lbs. Please note our dog is a high-energy, 52lb Australian Shepherd. She is great with other dogs but plays rough! If you have a much smaller or low energy pup, our home may not be the best fit for your needs.

“Danah was wonderful! I felt very comfortable and safe leaving my pup with her and that was the most important thing for me. She sent pictures, let me know how he was doing, and showed him lots of love! 100% will be booking again with her.”
