Doggy Day Care in Ventura

“Jessica was amazing. We needed a place to leave our dog for the day and it was perfect. She responds immediately to texts and sends lots of photo and video updates. Our little dog was so tired after a fun day with Jessica and her family. 100% would book with Jessica if we are in town again.”

“Kay did a great job taking care of Fletcher! He was all worn out from playing and running around the yard. She sent me plenty of pictures and updates. Would not hesitate to book with her again.”

“Wow! I am so happy with the service and care Kaye provided for my 4.5 month old pup. She came home so tired and happy from her doggy day care day. Kaye sent me pictures and updates throughout the day so I knew how my pup was doing on her first day care session away from home. It’s obvious Kaye loves what she does and takes pride in the little details that make all the difference. I am so grateful Kaye was able to accommodate my last minute need for a puppy sitter. Her response time was darn near immediate every time I reached out. If I could give 10 stars I would. Highly recommend Kaye and I’ll be using her service again for future day care needs.”

“Lori was great with Kevin and was flexible with the times as we had a day at the beach planned and didn’t know exactly when we’d be done. She even gave us fresh avocados and lemons from her backyard. Would hire her again. Thanks!”

“Adelle and Kyle are wonderful! I really appreciate all the updates, photos, and asking questions to make sure that my Sammy got the care she needed and felt comfortable in their home. They were very attentive and loving, and their pup, Sandy, was a great new friend for my Sammy to hang with. Thank you so much, Adelle and Kyle! Looking forward to connecting with you again in the future :)”

“Florencia and her family took great care of Max! Appreciated the frequent updates. We'd definitely use her again when we're in the area!”

“I cannot thoroughly explain how grateful I am that Lexie agreed to watch my boy for me; we had met with another sitter months in advance who agreed to our pick up and drop off times at the meet and greet, but decided to cancel on me a few hours before! Beyond flustered and upset I was panicking, but Lexie came to the rescue but not only that, she provided Oliver a safe place to interact with other dogs. 🥹🧡 She provided updates with pictures to let me know my baby was safe and being watched. if you’re looking for a sitter who is reliable and will love your dog like their own, I highly recommend Lexie. I will be using her again in the future.”

“Kelsey was so good with our Kenobi. She followed my instructions and made sure our baby was comfortable at her place, with her dog/s. We’ll use her service again next time for sure! 🤗”

“We were very happy with Hersh and his care for our small dog Sophie. Sophie was calm and relaxed when we picker her up unlike a previous stay at a kennel for small dogs. Hersh sent us a picture of Sophie relaxing on the couch and I could tell she was enjoying herself and was content. Good job. We would definitely use Hersh again if we are traveling in the area.”

“Sara saved our trip! We were camping in the area and planned a day out at the Channel Islands NP (not dog-friendly). Our original doggy sitter canceled on us two days before and we scrambled to find someone last minute. It was a blessing in disguise. Sara is the absolute sweetest! Communication was excellent. She updated us throughout the day with photos and kept our girl busy with playtime, a walk, and a hike. She was able to administer medication too. I can’t say enough good things! Thank you, Sara!”

About: There has never been a time in my life where I didn’t have a dog :) dogs have always been more than just pets, they are a member of the family. From an early ago my parents only allowed us to get pets if we promised to take care of them ourselves so I have helped raise and train many kinds of animals :) I now live with my husband and have one dog of our own. She is obsessed with other dogs and absolutely loves to play. This dynamic creates a beautiful environment for your pet whether staying with us, going on walks, or check-ins. I have a very open schedule with a lot of flexibility. I love spending time going on walks, taking them to the dog park or beach, and enjoying their company. Since we already have a dog our home is already very dog friendly:) we have a backyard where they can play, lots of trials and dog parks around, and a friendly community we live in.

“Very easy to work with. Love that she wanted to meet prior to booking to make sure her dogs were good with my dog. Great communication. Nice house with large backyard. Will book again.”

About: About our home & pack Hi, we’re Elise and Brad :) … dogs are our kids, and we keep things small so every pup gets real attention. We’re at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac in Ventura on an ~8,500 sq ft lot with a fully fenced yard—great for zoomies, fetch, and potty breaks. Brad and I own the house and rent bedrooms to long-term roommates — all of whom are working professionals in their thirties who love dogs. Two of us work from home and so our adult household means someone responsible is home 24/7, so pups are pretty much never left home alone. Our resident doodles are friendly, well-mannered playmates: • Joey (1.5yo 15 lb cockapoo): shy, sweet, loves chase games. He’s my soul dog. • Mia (1yo 39 lb goldendoodle): gentle, social, and very respectful of smaller dogs. She’s got sweet, protective mama energy. Safety & setup • Fully-fenced yard with easy, frequent potty access (sliding door open when we’re home). • We do have a pool, but it’s off-limits unless supervised. A retractable fence blocks access when needed, and there’s a surface alarm as a backup. • Dogs can be separated for meals or decompression anytime; we have plenty of space. Experience, seniors & care style Between Brad and I, we have 32 years of combined dog-owning experience (not counting caring for family pets as kids)… we’re lifelong poodle/doodle people. Brad handles our pups’ grooming at home (baths, trims, nails, ears), so just know we are big dog-people and super attentive. We’re very familiar with caring for dogs of all ages, including seniors who may need assistance. We also have plenty of experience with disabilities; one of our poodles became a tripod due to cancer… and we cherished him even more when that happened. A typical day Morning potty and light play in the fenced yard, breakfast per your schedule. Seniors get shorter, sniffy walks and extra nap time; playful guests get more fetch and yard time. With permission, we add a safe neighborhood walk and—occasionally— with your permission — an early-evening beach outing at C Street. Dinner, wind-down, and cozy sleep in our bedroom with us. Dogs are allowed on our furniture if that’s your style also. You’ll get daily photo updates so you’re never guessing. Good fit & requirements Friendly, house-trained dogs with no aggression history. Small–medium pups are our sweet spot; larger gentle dogs considered case-by-case. Seniors are absolutely welcome. Please have rabies vaccine and flea/tick prevention up to date, and bring food, leash/harness, meds, and a familiar bed/blanket. Logistics & options We’re flexible on pickup/drop-off—share your window. Meet & greets welcome. Optional extras upon request: extra neighborhood walk, beach trip to C street, light bath/brush, simple swim lessons (accompanied swim to find the steps and get out) I work from home so am around for any pet care needs throughout the day. Potty in the yard is available all day and I’m always keeping a watchful eye. :) Evening walks around our super-safe neighborhood after work, plus occasional trips to run on the beach (with your permission, of course). Dogs are our kids and we treat them as the treasures that they are. Our yard is fully-fenced in and front door/gate is always closed.We live at the end of a safe cul de sac on the east end of town where the sun usually shines. Pool is off-limits unless we are right there — it’s cordoned off with a retractable fence as needed plus a surface alarm (Bcone) as a backup. We also offer optional "find the steps" swim lessons, if that's of interest. :)

About: I am trained in behavioral therapy (mental health professional) and petsit frequently. I am very familiar with animals that struggle with anxiety, special needs, and are elderly. Absolutely adore the young pups and kittens too! Your pet will get plenty of exercise and be in a super safe environment when you are away. I have an extra crate at my home for your pet, if needed for your pets comfort. I work from home doing Telehealth and am able to take breaks as needed throughout the day. Most weekends we are home in the backyard enjoying the sunshine or getting out to local doggy hotspots. The neighborhood I live in is very safe and a very relaxing place to take the dog out for walks. There is a dog park across the street as well at a fenced in elementary school which is fun for dog socializing. I have a very sweet/shy: boxer (3yo) and a Nebelung cat (4yo) that live with me. The dog is crate trained. They get along great with one another and other pets. We have space to add a small to medium dog with a friendly disposition to come play during daycare and even board with us. I am flexible to come to your home to help out as well if this would be your preference.

“Leaving our little Cowboy (9 months old) with Sarah felt so easy and comfortable. We had a successful meet and greet with her and her dogs, then made our booking for day care that same week without thinking twice. I really appreciate her timeliness with communication, as well as the fact that she sends photos and updates. She also set up a sweet little gated area for Cowboy in her office—which I’m sure made him feel cozy and safe while she worked—and made it easy for her to keep an eye on him while he chewed on toys and had his snacks. They have a lovely home and backyard. Drop off and pick up were easy, and Cowboy seemed content and ready for a nap on his way home. We highly recommend Sarah!”
