Doggy Day Care In Vista Montecito

“Brian is great - our dog is pretty shy, but he has been really patient with her and now she is excited to see him and the other dogs. He is also great at communicating quickly. Very thankful to have a safe, fun place for our dog to go.”

“In all my years of using dog sitters, no one has come close to Peter in terms of the care and love my dog received from him. Peter sent the best pictures throughout the day, and I was jealous of how much fun they were having. , He really did treat Bug like his own dog. I think my dog almost likes him better than me.”

“Sally loves her days with Bill.”

“We needed daycare for our small pup while traveling so we could go to a museum. Shell was responsive when scheduling and attuned to our dogs needs while he was there. Good experience all around!”

“Cecilia and family were very kind and understanding of Buffalo’s insecurity being left behind. Her dogs were very kind with my dog and had no issues. She kept in contact with me and sent me pictures that reassured me that Buffalo was comfortable and safe.”

“Brian took care of our dogs for the day at his home. He sent pictures and updates. He was very kind, respectful, and knowledgeable about dogs. He was understanding and patient with one of our dogs that was timid. We will definitely use Brian’s doggy day care service next time we’re in ABQ!”

“Mike was an incredible sitter. My little guy, Walter, took to him because he was so friendly. He gave me updates throughout the day and made sure my dog was walked, fed, and well loved. Would recommend and work with Mike again!”

About: Hi there! If you are a first-time client, please take a moment to read my full profile before requesting a booking. I want to make sure my home and care style are a good fit for your pet. I’m Celine, an artist living in Albuquerque who loves helping people care for their pets. Pet sitting has been a meaningful way for me to support my art practice while spending time with wonderful animals. I grew up with dogs, had a plott hound named Lucy, and have been pet sitting for many years, first for friends and now regularly on Rover. I’m comfortable with a range of personalities and focus on creating a calm, secure environment for each dog. - I board only one dog at a time, ensuring your pet receives my full attention in a peaceful space with no other animals or children. I’m open to occasional exceptions for small dogs from the same household so they can stay together. I have a fenced yard and provide regular daily walks so your dog gets plenty of safe outdoor time and enrichment. - My partner Randy also lives with me. He is a wildland firefighter and is often away for extended periods. When he is home, he enjoys spending time with the dogs, but I am the primary caregiver and handle all daily care and communication. - I send regular updates with photos so you can feel connected and reassured while you’re away. I look forward to meeting you and your dog! - Policies & Requirements: I require a meet and greet for all new clients. During this meeting, I assess whether the dog is a good fit and observe how they respond to new people. Please share any behavioral concerns or important details at that time. - If a dog is extremely high energy, has never been left alone without their owner, or shows signs of anxiety, I may request a trial daycare stay before approving a longer booking or overnight stay. - Because I am often fully booked, I may schedule meet and greets during an active boarding. The dog I’m boarding is always safely separated, and I don’t allow dogs to meet or interact. - I accept bookings on a first-come, first-served basis. A stay is not confirmed or reserved until it has been paid for and officially accepted through Rover. - For boarding stays, please bring everything your dog needs from home, including food, bowls, medications, toys, treats, crate (if crate trained and used to sleeping or spending time in a crate), bed, leash, and poop bags. I work from home as an artist and illustrator. My schedule is fairly flexible, which will ensure that I have plenty of time to dedicate to your pet. Though I am at home most of the time, I do occasionally have to step out for 1-6 hours at a time for meetings and other errands. I take measures to make their time alone as stress-free as possible, providing toys and treats to occupy them. I prioritize safety through close supervision and clear communication with owners. I will take extra care to follow any instructions you have for feeding and administering medication, ensuring they get the care they need.

“Crystal is awesome as a host, and my dog Rufus had a great time hanging out with her dogs!”

About: "I've taken care of dog's and cats of every kind i have fostered through the city of Albuquerque for years and have my own dog's and cats. Animals are truly my passion and this wouldn't be just a "job" for me. I have a flexible a schedule and you can always talk to me if you need different days or hours we can go from there. I will take care of your fur baby as if was my own. I will listen to every detail you tell me and make sure it gets done and give your fur baby lots of love and pets.

“It was great to get help at the last minute. Alexandria was accommodating and kind.”

“Julia is a sweetheart! She took us in last minute and was super flexible with our drop off. She made sure to send me updates and pictures through the day. I highly recommend booking with her!!”

About: I grew up with animals and in an effort to eliminate congenital diseases in some of my favorite breeds, I became a boutique dog breeder. That gave me extensive experience in caring for animals with various needs. I can administer shots, medications, specialized dietary needs and provide the most personalized care. I have a very flexible schedule to accommodate your needs! I am available holidays, weekends and throughout the day! I am here for your peace of mind! I have one very friendly dog (female) that would love to play with yours. I have a safe, enclosed yard and live near a beautiful walking ditch.

“I was visiting town and needed a last-minute dog daycare option, and she was fantastic. She was very responsive and took the time to meet me and my pup beforehand, which made me feel comfortable right away. My pup was tired from the day and all the activities, but she handled her with both care and confidence. She quickly became part of the pack, played with the other dogs, and came back happily exhausted. She also sent photos and text updates, which I really appreciated. I especially liked how attentive she was with my pup’s prescribed medication. It gave me real peace of mind knowing she was safe, cared for, and having a great time while I was away. Highly recommend!”

“Diane was so great with our senior rescue poodle. She looked happy in the photos she sent. Tail was wagging when we picked up and she got lots of snuggles. We will be using her again!”

Lisa W.

“Jody was amazing with our new rescue, Teddy. She was very communicative and worked with us on all of Teddy's quirks like separation anxiety and leash reactivity. Teddy definitely had a fun day full of fun and adventure! We super appreciate Jody working with us on such late notice and for being so kind!”
