Dog Boarding in Toro Canyon, CA

“Gurudatt and his family were amazing with our pup. They went on multiple walks per day and went to play at the park too. Their dog Bruno is super friendly and was a great play partner for our dog. They sent pictures and videos throughout the stay so I knew she was being well taken care of and happy.”

“Lynn and Marty were fantastic sitters for my fur baby. I had been looking for a while for a good fit for my senior dog and ended up finding them a week before my trip. Lynn offered up a phone call so I could talk about the care and treatment I needed. I was so worried to leave my pup since she’d been having some health issues, but when it was time to drop her off, Lynn and Marty and their senior fur baby dog had the best vibes and wanted to make sure my pup was well taken care of. I could tell my pup felt right at home and loved exploring their nice yard. I got regular photos and updates on how she was doing and whether she’d eaten. When I picked her up, Lynn and Marty said they’d miss her and she looked relaxed and happy. I would definitely be a repeat customer and would recommend this gem of a place for pet care 🐾 💕”

“Jeanine is the best! She was so accommodating in letting Callie meet her doggies ahead of time. Callie has separation anxiety and had never been away from my for a night, and Jeanine made her feel right at home. Callie is looking forward to her next vacation at Jeanine’s :)”

“Deandra was very responsive and helpful! She made me much more comfortable when letting our dog go with a rover sitter for the first time. Our Margo slept in late the next day so I’m sure she had the best time!”

“I can’t say enough good things about Eve! She took such wonderful care of my 6-month-old puppy, and it was clear from the moment I picked him up that he was not only happy, but had formed a real bond with her. She’s incredibly kind, patient, and clearly has a natural way with animals. On top of that, she even taught him a few new tricks! I felt completely at ease knowing he was in such loving and capable hands. Highly recommend!”

“Our fur babies stayed with Alexandra and Billy during our vacation in Santa Barbara. They were very accommodating during our time there. We were able to pick our pups, spend time with them and drop them off again. Our pups were happy and well taken care of. We will definitely contact them again on future visits to the area.”

“Amber exceeded all expectations. Her attention to detail and genuine love for animals shone through in every interaction with my furry friend. Regular updates and photos kept me reassured during my time away. I'm grateful to have found such a reliable and caring sitter. Amber comes highly recommended for anyone seeking dog boarding through Rover.”

“Tony was great with our dog, Monty! He watched him for one week at his home. He took him on adventures everyday and sent pictures daily. We would 100% recommend Tony to anyone looking for a wonderful dog sitter.”

About: I’ve cared for animals my whole life—dogs, cats, and especially puppies. I’ve personally trained two puppies from scratch, so I’m comfortable with the patience and consistency it takes to support a dog through their early years. I have a deep, intuitive connection with animals and often find I understand their energy and needs even better than people’s. I work for myself from home here in Santa Barbara, which means I have plenty of flexibility to give pets the time, attention, and companionship they deserve. Whether it's daily walks, belly rubs, or just a calm, safe space, I approach every animal with genuine care and a tender heart. I’m also very active, so long walks and outdoor time are a highlight for both me and the dogs I care for. I work for myself and from home, so my schedule is very flexible. That means I can easily adapt to your pet’s needs—whether it’s regular walks, drop-in visits, or overnight care. I’ll always make time to give your pet the attention and consistency they deserve. Every animal is unique, and I take the time to understand their individual needs, energy, and comfort level. I’ll meet your dog or cat where they’re at—whether that means extra space, extra snuggles, or gentle structure—with clear, compassionate boundaries to keep them safe and happy. If your pet is staying with me, they’ll be treated like one of my own. I live in a calm, pet-friendly apartment near Santa Barbara City College, with plenty of walkable paths and green spaces nearby. I love getting outside and take dogs on multiple long walks throughout the day. If your dog is social and has solid recall, I can bring them to local off-leash areas for supervised play and exploration. I have one small dog of my own—Pepper, a 3.5-year-old mixed breed who’s very friendly and well-socialized. I also have two young stepsons who are with us 50% of the time, so dogs staying in our home must be kid-friendly. The good news? Your dog will get plenty of love and attention from four caring humans. I’ve trained two of my own dogs from puppyhood and am confident managing a range of behaviors—from leash training to crate routines and basic obedience. I’m also comfortable administering medications and caring for senior pets or those with special needs. For cat care, I’m especially attuned to their unique rhythms and boundaries, and I provide calm, consistent care whether I’m visiting your home or caring for them during a stay. Whether I’m boarding, walking, or house sitting, your pet will be safe, respected, and genuinely cared for—just like family.

“Ada was fantastic! Great communication and even when Theo developed a bit of a booboo, she cleaned it and put some antiseptic on it which helped greatly. Will definitely book again next time we are in the area. Thanks!!”

“They were incredibly hospitable and accommodating. I’m so grateful to have them right here in my neighborhood! I’m very particular about my dog’s care—especially coming from a country with advanced dog care standards. This was my second booking, and I had complete peace of mind knowing my dog was safe, happy, and well cared for in a clean home with a fenced yard, playing with their sweet puppy, Daisy. The photos Vivian sent meant so much to me—it was comforting to see my dog not only safe but also happy and social. What reassures me even more is that they previously owned a small dog before Daisy and truly understand the needs of small breeds at every life stage. I’m grateful to have found such thoughtful, trustworthy people. I wouldn’t hesitate to book with them again—and I look forward to seeing Daisy next time too!”

“Svetlana was the most incredible dog sitter for my sweet pup:) she was prompt at responding the entire stay & was able to agree to watch Toby with short notice. She kept me updating with sweet photos, and was even able to accommodate an additional day at the last minute. I returned from a weekend away to a very happy, (& clean!) pup. I could tell her & her boyfriend were very caring and attentive with him. I will definitely be booking with them the next time I need a sitter! Highly recommend.”

“My first time using Rover and we booked Tory for a 2 night boarding last minute for my dog Willow. We were worried about her being sad while we were gone, but Tory did such a wonderful job taking care of her! She kept us updated with many photos and it was obvious they were having a good time together. She made sure Willow was comfortable with her toys and Willow felt so comfortable she cuddled with her which is a pretty big deal for her. She took her to the beach and they had a great time! She even got Willow to eat and sometimes Willow will refuse to eat when we leave her with my family and we aren’t around. Overall I’m happy we put our trust in Tory and I would highly recommend!”

About: Hello! We are a family of 4 (our girl is 8 and our boy is 12) that loves dogs!! We also have allergies so only hypoallergenic dogs please if you are booking for boarding or day care. We have one dog, and Aussie doodle, that is very social and loves having friends over! :) Dogs must be good with children, other dogs and have good manners. :) We have a nice big fenced yard for lots of outdoor play, a great neighborhood for walks, and we are also very close to the beach and mountains if you have an active dog that likes to get out and about. We can’t wait to love your sweet dog as our own and shower it with love and attention! We have flexible working-from-home schedules. Our kids are in a school schedule with extra time in mornings, evenings and weekends. We would love to welcome your dog as our own! We have a fenced yard. As long as the dog is hypoallergenic, we can have the dog in our home. We love snuggling and playing!

“Marc took excellent care of our dog. We had a last minute cancellation with a different dog sitter but Marc came to our rescue. His communication was great and overall we are happy customers. 2 paws up!”
