Doggy Day Care in Solana Beach

“This was the first time that I took my freshly-adored puppy to doggy daycare. May was very caring and she sent me photos and videos that clearly showed a happy dog. The next day, my dog happily greeted may, clearly showing me that she was happy to see her again for another fun day. 5 stars.”

“We are very thankful we met Alana. She was amazing with our dog Buddy and he was comfortable staying in her home. Our dog is now a senior dog and we highly recommend Alana as she took good care of him. We look forward to having Buddy stay with her again soon!”

“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!”

“Sophie is great! She is caring and attentive. Maisy enjoyed her week playing with Snow and hanging out. I felt super comfortable that Maisy was well cared for. She came home exhausted from an active day with her new friends!”

About: I’ve been caring for dogs for 15 years, from energetic puppies to mellow seniors. Whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding, or giving meds, I treat every pup like part of the family. Friends and neighbors rely on me for everything from daily visits to overnight stays, and I’ve built great bonds with dogs of all sizes and temperaments. I’m confident, calm, and always ready for fetch, belly rubs, or just quiet companionship. Bonus: I never show up without treats (with your permission, of course!). Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine—I genuinely love spending time with animals. I’m flexible and can accommodate morning, midday, or evening visits depending on your pet’s needs. Whether it’s a quick potty break, a long walk, or quality cuddle time, I make sure each visit is stress-free and tailored to your dog’s personality and schedule. Weekdays and weekends are both available, and I always build in time for updates, so you’ll never wonder how your pup is doing. Safety, trust & environment Keeping pets safe, happy, and comfortable is always my top priority—whether I’m staying at your place or welcoming your pet into mine. I stick closely to your care instructions and take time to get to know each pet’s personality and routine. When I’m in your home, I make sure everything stays just the way they’re used to. At my place, it’s calm and cozy with lots of supervision and comfy spots to lounge. ***I have two sweet Frenchies who are great with other dogs—we’ve had a third pup stay with us for weeks at a time, and it’s always a blast. I keep things secure, walk with sturdy leashes, and treat every pet like one of my own. If you’re looking for care for two or more dogs, I usually prefer staying at your place—it helps keep things low-stress and more familiar for them.

About: With over 20 years of dog-loving experience, I’ve shared my life with pups of all shapes, sizes, and ages—from frisky puppies to wise seniors. While I currently don’t have a furry companion (after saying goodbye to my sweet little dog last year), my calendar—and couch—are ready for canine company! Friends and neighbors have trusted me to walk, feed, and entertain their pets, and I’m known for doling out head scratches and belly rubs as generously as treats. Your pup will get the VIP treatment and all the love they deserve! Pet care is my passion, and I love filling my days with walks and playtime. Since I live in an apartment, walk breaks happen frequently—perfect for pups with potty breaks or high energy needs! I set my schedule around your pets, ensuring they never feel rushed (and have time for that extra lap around the block). Most days, I’m home and flexible, ready for early morning or evening visits to suit your routine. Your pet’s safety and happiness are my top priority. At my place, pets get a cozy, secure environment and plenty of attention—no overcrowding or chaos here! On walks, I stay alert for other animals and hazards. Whether I’m caring for your pet at my apartment or in your home, I maintain a calm, clean space and keep you updated with photos and cheerful messages—you’ll rest easy knowing your furry family member is in caring, experienced hands!

“Great sitter and communicator. Took my pup to the dog beach to play. Sent me some cute pictures. Safe easy location for pickup and drop off. Would book again!”

About: I always honor and treat my clients like family. I especially love working with active, high energy dogs that are responsive to treats and training. Senior dogs and dogs with special needs also hold a special place in my heart. A quick meet and greet is REQUIRED for all new clients to make sure my home is a good fit for your pup. I also require a meet and greet for my dog walking clients. Please allow time for that with your request, if applicable. I'm home most of the day. It's easy for me to take a break from what I'm doing to play with your pup, go for a walk around the block, or out to the park for some fun. There are so many fun places to explore in and around Solana Beach and Del Mar. I may leave for an hour or two during the day for yoga or the gym.

About: I love animals, very responsible and will treat it as if it’s my own. Safe and comfortable home. Have had cats and dogs my whole life. You can be confident your baby will be in good hands. I work from home and your pet will be taken care of and kept in good company the entire time they’re away from you. You can travel with comfort. Your pet will be with me the entire time with a watchful eye and comfort, and they will feel like they are at home away from home

About: My Fiancé, Olivia, and I have grown up around dogs all our lives. Olivia has had a Golden Retriever and English Springer Spaniel, while I grew up with a Border Collie, Cockapoo, and Mutt Lab. Over the past few years we’ve been watching our friends dogs and thought that this was a great way to get more puppy love. I am work from home, so I’m able to walk, play, and attend to the dog throughout the entirety of the day. Olivia is a teacher and at school during the day, but is around in the afternoons and on weekends. We are available most weekdays and some weekends to watch pets! We live in an apartment building, but I frequently go on walks and leave the building throughout the day. We can walk to dog beach if your dog is super social, or we can stay in the neighborhood, or go to Fletcher Cove to hang on the lawn.

“Jacquelyn was kind enough to watch my dog Bonita last minute so I could go see an evening show. Bonita has separation anxiety so doesn’t do well staying home alone, but did great with Jacquelyn, her sweet girls and dog! Thank you!”

“Caroline is the best sitter I’ve ever had on Rover! She is so sweet and goes above and beyond to make sure you and your pup are happy with lots of updates along the way. Layla absolutely loves her and was always so excited to see her everyday. I wish we lived in San Diego so we could bring her for daycare all the time:)”

“Cameron and his wife took great care of our labradoodle puppy, Minnie. Communication was seamless and after each stay, Minnie came home tired and happy.”
