Cheryl has been super great with our puppy, Noxie! Nox is really timid with people but got along really well with Cheryl, she even perked up and wagged her tail the second time. Cheryl is very accommodating of our schedules and has also personally reached out to me to confirm things when my app was having trouble notifying me. She writes really long and detailed reports after each walk and attaches pictures too. We highly recommend Cheryl for dog walking your fur baby!

Tharan has been so good with Zena! It was pouring down rain and he still took her the full hour and even took extra photos to send me. He’s super sweet & I can tell he loves dogs. Communication is great & his availability is awesome. I can’t wait for Zena’s walk dates with him again.

Charlotte is among the very few people I trust with my kitten. She shows amazing character and truly cares about all animals. Charlotte has had a vast amount of experience working with animals seeing as she owns many pets of her own and is employed at a K-9 resort and athletic club. passion, integrity and selfless is how I would describe Charlotte.

Ryan was a godsend! available all day last-minute on Thanksgiving when everyone else was booked or not accepting a solo-doggie who is not social and therefore needs one-on-one. Ryan was totally flexible, accommodating and very professional in regards to anticipating and prepping for all of Sadie's needs. i would highly recommend Ryan and will definitely call him again when next in Santa Barbara! Sadie had a wonderful 3 hour romp at one beach and later the same day another 90 mins at another beach! Needless to say a tired dog is a happy dog and she slept well that night after a full body massage for well-exercised muscles! Ryan is very caring and enthusiastic regarding animal care for cats and dogs as well as considerate, polite and accommodating towards me - yes, a self professed people-pleaser! Thank you Ryan!

About: Hello, Are you a busy pet owner in need of reliable and trustworthy care for your beloved pets while you're away? Look no further than my garden retreat for pets where I provide pet care, boarding, day care, training, and dog walking services! I understand that leaving your beloved pets behind can be stressful, which is why as an experienced and passionate animal lover I am dedicated to providing the highest level of care and attention to your pets. From daily walks to overnight stays or training and day care, I offer a range of services tailored to meet your specific needs and ensure your pets receive the attention, exercise, and love they deserve. Trust me to take care of your pets like they're my own, and enjoy peace of mind knowing they're in good hands. I would enjoy the chance to take great care of your beloved pet. I offer a safe, healthy, interactive, environment with plenty of enrichment. Please contact me and we can arrange what care and service I can provide you and your pets. Note: I also can provide home made food made from high quality ingredients from a vet approved recipe custom tailored to your specific dog providing all of its nutrients, minerals, vitamins and other beneficial supplements. And I can provide basic grooming, vet pick up and drop off, & training sessions. My prices are reasonable for high level attentive care. They are based on being able to serve other clients dogs. My daily limit is 3. If you require your dog to be solo (besides my own dog) please let me know when you request the booking. Note: when you reserve a solo dog boarding or day care rate I have to request a 50% increase. I am also certified for pet first aid and CPR. I provide hands-on, eyes-on care of your pet. 24 hours a day 5 days a week. And twice a week I take 1-2 hours to take care of my own needs. And I try to take them with me when I can. So your pet is with me as much as humanly possible. I am available unless booked. Once booked and accepted, your reservation is guaranteed. Preference giving to long-term or repeat clients. If urgent or you are in a tight spot, please let me know and I will try my best to accommodate. My eclectic and enchanted garden studio is home to a rescue dog, several bunnies, and quail. Although the backyard is small, there are plenty of enriching activities available for all my furry friends. For daily exercise, we venture up the street to the spacious and dog-friendly Eling's Park, which is both beautiful and super safe for dogs. Additionally, we make a daily trip to the leashed side of Hendry's Beach or one of the many local parks that are dog friendly and our favorites like Hale Park or Toro Canyon Park plus I plan other interactive and exciting outings based on the individual needs and preferences of each pet. Transportation is not a problem, as I have a dog-friendly Honda Accord equipped with harnesses, bungees, dog seat belts with bungees, and a crate for small to medium size dogs. I prioritize the safety and comfort of your pets during car rides, and the seats can easily be folded down for added space. As a trained professional in emergency first aid for pets, I am prepared for any situation that may arise. I will follow any necessary medication routines or dietary plans, and I am happy to accommodate any specific nutritional needs your pets may have. Behavioral challenges or needs will be discussed with you, and together we will create a customized plan to ensure that your pet feels comfortable and happy in my care. If there is anything else I can do to meet your pets' needs, please do not hesitate to let me know. I am always happy to provide excellent service and tailor my approach to meet the individual needs of each pet.

In one word: Lisa was FABULOUS!!! I couldn't be happier or more impressed with the thoughtful and loving care my fur baby received from Lisa! Lisa took time to learn about my dog's preferences and quirks, took her to her favorite park, sent lots of pictures and updates, and was generally a delight to work with - she clearly has a big heart. Will absolutely book again!

Kathy is great dog walker who is dependable and trustworthy. Prior to her first walk she came over to get to know our pup and familiarize herself with our training tool. She communicates quickly and we have peace of mind knowing she is taking care of our dog. We recommend her services (:

Aaron has always been wonderful with our two dogs. We've been able to trust him to go in and out of our house while my wife and I are away for work. On a recent vacation, Aaron volunteered to also watch over our houseplants and put out the bins. Going away for the day, week, or month has been much more stress-free knowing that our pets and house are in the hands of somebody who communicates well and is very trustworthy.

Ashtyn is the best! She is so loving and great with dogs! She is so thoughtful and responsible. She always asks if we need anything else done, like putting trash cans back inside or picking up mail, etc. She keeps our mini schnauzer, Stewie, busy with lots of playing when she comes over. I would trust her over anyone else for any pet sitting needs!

Max was very nice and attentive on his walk. They were flexible about some schedule changes due to my dog having an injury and Max was patient walking her with a bandage on. We look forward to using them again.

About: I am a very organized person who is not afraid to take a challenge. I have taken care of several dogs at a time fron a range of sizes and ages. I can administer medicines and other cares needed. My schedule is pretty flexible as I’m working part time. I love being outside and going on walks and what better than to have a dog to make me company. I would give the dogs attention and pets so they can feel comfortable with me. I would try and give the fury friends daily walks and enough potty breaks.

About: I have had many years of experience working closely with animals. Apart from owning cats and dogs all my life, I have had the opportunity to work at some shelters and wildlife retreat in Santa Barbara. I have owned small and large dogs and feel comfortable with both. My home is very much pet-friendly and have a huge backyard for your furry friend. I would love to walk your four-legged friends there! It is important for me to always provide them with fresh water and make my home as comfortable as I can for them to stay at. Animals give me so much joy and I only hope to return the favor to them as well. I am available most days and weekends! I work from home and take daily walks. Since I am able to take frequent breaks I love spending my spare time with furry friends. It is important for me to make sure they know I am a guest in their home. So I would stick with their home routine. If they are staying at my home I will stick to their schedule as well, whether your dog likes to lounge in the sun or get some exercise in. I have an acre backyard, please see image of husky running in my backyard. Dogs and cats love our yard because there is so much room to play with!

All of my dogs LOVE Anny! Even our senior dog makes his way from under the bed when he hears her come in and he doesn't usually come out for anything except food! You can tell just how much she cares for animals and her photos are amazing! It makes my day to see the huge smiles on the dog's faces in her beautiful photos that she send me. Anny is top notch and I would highly recommend her to anyone.
