Amazing experience for Joseph caring for my dogs. He gave exceptional attention to both dogs, keeping my active dog engaged all day. Parking is tight. Recommend texting him 15 minutes before arrival to ensure smooth entry. I’ll definitely use his services again when in the area. Highly recommend.

Alex was very accommodating with drop off and pick up times. Our dog came home exhausted as they went on multiple excursions with Alex. We feel our dog was well cared for during her stays with Alex. Thank you Alex!

Ryan was able to take a last minute request to watch our three dogs while we went to Lotusland. He was very attentive and sent us plenty of photos. One of our dogs is a recent rescue from Gaza, and is a wonderful boy, but he does like to jump over walls and fences, and when Ryan noticed him, perhaps preparing to do that, he decided to put him in a harness, and keep him on a leash for the whole three hours, so that was really a wonderful blessing. He is clearly a huge animal lover.

I recently booked sitting services for my dog to Naoko, and I couldn’t be more pleased with the entire experience! From the moment we arrived, I was impressed by the warm and inviting atmosphere. Naoko is incredibly kind and attentive with my dog, and it was clear that he felt at ease and genuinely enjoyed his time with her and her family. I felt completely reassured knowing he was in such a nurturing environment. I’m really grateful for the care she provided and will absolutely be reaching out to her again in the future. If you're looking for a loving pet sitter, I highly recommend Naoko!

Highly recommend James! We are visiting Santa Barbara for the month and were in need of doggy daycare for our bluetick coonhound on occasion. James was very welcoming to Buddy and provided excellent care for him while we dined at a restaurant that doesn't allow dogs. We also booked James for an upcoming event so we can attend a concert and James was very accommodating with the schedule. We also appreciated his very reasonable price structure. We wish he lived in Arizona so we could have him be our go-to care provider for Buddy!

I used to take my dogs to an awesome doggy daycare. As they got older, it was getting too tiring for them to be surrounded by so many dogs and it would take them couple of days to regain energy after one day of daycare. So I was looking for someone who could give them a quiet homely and safe environment, and specifically someone who accepted only a few dogs at once. Hillary fit the bill perfectly. Her two lovely pups are close in age with mine, and she rarely takes on any other dog beyond my two pups on the same day (unless another pup is staying overnight for boarding). Hillary and her family are very welcoming. She kindly accepted to do a meet & greet before i booked my first day of daycare. My dogs have been going two days a week for a few weeks now. They wag their tails on the way in and on the way out. They seem really happy which makes me happy. I’m very grateful for Hillary and the great care she gives to my two dogs.

Courtney took great care of my two anxious little rescue pups! I could tell they had a relaxing time staying with her, which is no small thing, since they tend to get very nervous with a new sitter. I would definitely use Courtney’s services again.

About: I have been taking care of my childhood dog since I was old enough to walk alone outside. She knew nothing and now she is well behaved, off leash, potty trained, and knows tricks. I love all animals and grew up with all different types of pets growing up. I have a passion for caretaking and want to be able to help with animals needs for their owners. Pet care fits into my schedule with only having school on Wednesdays from 11-1pm. And the rest of the days of the week I am available any time. I care for pets in my own home by introducing them to my housemates and seeing if they are comfortable first in my home. Then I will take them to the beach and parks that are right next to my house. In the owners home I will be respectful of their belongings and not touch anything I shouldn’t. I will feed pets if needed on schedule, give them attention, walks, and doing anything else asked if needed.
