Dog Sitters in Valley Center, CA

Amazing staff, quick shots, and great nail trimming! I take my dog here every time and highly recommend!

We pay full service for our dog, and they never honor their service. Not just this time but several times before. I asked them to shave my dog and lower her hair because it was getting too long. It was in their full-service policy that she could get a haircut, but they never gave my dog a haircut. They always cut corners and find excuses; it doesn't matter if you pay for a full service or request a full service. The management is handled very poorly. Note that we have been using their place for more than five years. I can't give them zero stars, so one star is the lowest I can give, and they lost our service. Please don't let your dog be groomed by them.

Countryside is the best took my German sheperd to them before he passed they are great. My son takes his dog to them they got his hips in great shape now he can run again. I boarded my little guy there for a week wasn't sure how he'd do since we've never been apart more than 6 hrs a day for last 10 year's went to pick him up sure he missed me but think he had such a good time he didn't want to leave lol

Osaka loves to go to Muddy Paws. They understand that he is a Senior Citizen and needs his naps. It's comforting to know that Dr. Hofler is there if he is needs medical attention. Joe and his staff are doing a super job!!! We have no worries when we leave our little boy for travel. We highly recommend this wonderful camp for dogs.

My bully pitbull Remy Ma loves it at muddy paws 🐾 she’s made lots of friends and they take very good care of her 👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾 …

WORST MANAGEMENT EVER!!! If I could give this place ZERO stars I would. Hands down the most horrifically MANAGED grooming place EVER!!! We will never take our dog and our cats back ever again and also never to CountrySide Vet either. Believe me when I say… TAKE YOUR PETS ELSEWHERE. Horrible experiences all around!

Veterinary services, Boarding, Grooming, Day Camp all on one property! You can't beat Muddy Paws for all your pet needs. The entire staff is wonderful. The premises are immaculately kept. I don't know how they do it. My dog loves his twice weekly Camp experience. It's a wonderful socialization tool. I know when Snickers is there, all his needs will be taken care of. Check it out! Joe is very special. Everyone is.

I feel really good about leaving Honey there while I am out of town. The people there all seem really to enjoy the furry friends and Honey has a ball. According to Joe she is a goof ball there and really happy for the people and dog attention. Laurel

I started bringing Triscuit to Muddy Paws a few months ago so she could play with other dogs, after her dog friend Hershey passed away. Timid and nervous at first, she quickly learned that this was a safe and fun place. She is getting braver every day and absolutely loves it at Muddy Paws!! As a professional animal trainer of over 20 years, Iam impressed with Joe and his easy going demeanor. I don't leave Triscuit with just anyone...she is my faithful friend. Thank you to all Muddy Paw staff.... you guys rock Vicki Laurie

So unprofessional. Called to ask about their services and had to deal with 10 MINUTES of "surveys" asking me about my insurance and if I'm 65+ and it wasn't even done! "Push 1 to get your free iPhone or 2 to GO TO THE NEXT OFFER!!!!" I don't want to go to the next f*****g offer for Medical I want a damn appointment. NEVER trying you again. Who knows who you people scam!

Phenomenal experiences every time we go. Our dog loves this place so much, he plays and swims and even had a dog bestie! The staff and Lori and Don and honestly everyone we interacted with is friendly and you can tell how much they prioritize and love working with all of the dogs. Don even helped us with some training on one of our long stays and we got a couple pictures too. It is so reassuring to know our fur baby is in such great care when he can’t be with us and also having so much fun. I could not be happier nor could I recommend or rate highly enough! They are by far the ONLY choice for us when we have to go out of town as they loved our pup like he was their own. Thank you so much!

This place is amazing. I cannot overstate how great it is. I work from home 40-50 hours a week. And I have a 5 month old very excitable puppy. Having her go to Two Paws Up twice a week has changed her life and mine. Every single person who works there is great, and I really appreciate them. They really care about the dogs well being in a way that I deeply appreciate. For people looking into dog obedience training, Donnie is great. He's very good at it, and takes the time to explain why to do / not do certain things. I don't do reviews for places very often, but I want everyone to know how much I love this place! And so does my dog!

Two Paws Up is a fantastic facility for anyone looking for daytime, overnight or extended stay options for their dog. The property is divided into different yards and play areas, including a pool. Each animal is treated on an individual basis. Excellent care and supervision is provided by trained staff. Top level customer service at every point in the process. Our 4-yr-old 100-pound German Shepard mix (a rescue) just returned from a 7-day stay (his longest). He came home happy, healthy and clean (free bath w/ extended stay). Thank you Donnie and Laurie at Two Paws Up! See you soon.

I have a golden retriever. We used to go to another place in valley center, but they closed down. And to be honest, I love this place way more!! Someone is always on site, the dogs are not crated but have areas they can sleep and lounge. If you stay more than 5 days, they give you a $20 credit on a dog wash that covers a basic wash. You can also add other grooming services, which is awesome. My dog always comes back clean, happy and tired! My only critiques/what would make it perfect: an up to date IG page for daily pix of the dogs and/or doggie cams...so when I am out of state and missing my dig I can peek in and see all the fun she is having.

Our 2 border collies love spending time at Two Paws Up. They have a great time interacting with the other dogs & staff. Freedom to run and play in a safe supervised place makes me happy for them. They come home tired.

These people are the best. My furbabies are my family and I would never leave them with people who didn't treasure them as we do. Lori, Donnie and staff are outstanding. My furbabies are safe, secure and well cared for. The minute we start preparing the car they can't wait to get loaded up to go!! Thank You Two Paws up!!!

I can't say enough good things about Two Paws Up! We have a nervous dog and with Lori and Donnie's experience, they know how to deal with him and help him manage his fears. We send both our pups to the doggie daycare and boarding when needed and they always come back tired and happy. Thanks for everything!

Great place! Met the owner, and he was not only su9er nice but gave me some advice on my dog. And all I went there for was to ask, how much? Btw... great price for the services. Honestly, I haven't used the yet, but when I need them, I'm definitely gonna!

Owner Lori really cares about the dogs. I have taken several generations of dogs there and have referred friends to them as well.

Love, love, love this dog camp! The dogs have fun and they are very well taken care of. My dog gets so excited on "Camp Day" - she loves it there! I highly recommend this dog camp.

Janean took excellent care of my small senior chihuahua while I was on vacation in Mexico. She sent photos each day with updates which gave me peace of mind on vacation. I highly recommend. Thank you, Janean, Machel 🙏

We have used Hounds to Horses for years to care for our pets. They are professional, friendly, reliable, and our pets are still happy and healthy when we get home. I cannot recommend them enough.

Janean is awesome! First time boarding both our dogs together. They were so happy and well cared for here. No chance we would go anywhere else. Plenty of love and attention... plenty of room to play... total peace of mind. Loved getting picture updates on how our dogs were doing while we were gone. Highest recommendation!

Janean is extremely knowledgeable about dogs and seems to be able to make them feel very comfortable. My 2 Chihuahuas have stayed with her 2 times over the last couple of months. 1 is very skittish and the other has tremendous separation anxiety. Both so very well there and I am so grateful!

We have used both the daycare and in-home visits at Hounds to Horses. Lucy and Jasper always get the best of care. Lucy thinks Bill is her "other Dad" and sometimes seems to prefer staying with him than coming home! That tells me that she's getting the love and attention she needs while we are away. We've been using H to H for over 8 years and I would recommend it to anyone who wants kindhearted people to take care of their fur babies. Thanks Janean and Bill!

I've experienced the great environment and personal care that they give all of their animals. The only concern you should have about boarding your animals at Hounds To Horses is that your pet may never want to go back home with you! I highly recommend Hounds To Horses!

Sonny & Sophie (Boxers} spent Labor Day Week end At Hounds to Horses (2020) Great in House Venue as well as access to out doors activitys. could tell when pick up Sonny and Sophie were well taken care of. "When Do We Go Back" thanks Janean

My dog loves it here. And it's very safe. Owner of thoughtful and sweet, I even got update photos of my girl during her boarding stay which was amazing bc I missed my doggo so much

Wonderful experience and a homely, fun place. Our King Charles was happy and obviously well looked after. Will definitely be going back.

Contacted twice over the past 2 or 3 years. No follow up or follow through.

Five stars is well deserved! Mike provides everything every dog owner is looking for. His calm, confident and methodical approach to bond with our less than social dog was nothing less than jaw dropping. Mike frequently updates us when caring for our dog which provides reassurance that our pet is well cared for. He provides full-service pet care to include walking, training, and pet visits. His flexibility to work with our plans has been outstanding. Mike’s pet care services are professional and top notch. Highly recommend!

We're very picky about whom we trust to care for our cat when we're out of town. Four on the Floor Pet Care came highly recommended from our previous pet sitter, who moved out of state. We can't say good enough things about Mike and Mandi. They are so thoughtful, professional, and caring. Our cat doesn't warm up to people easily, but he had no problems becoming friends with them right from the start. It's a huge relief to know we can call on Mike and Mandi to look after our cat when we're out of town, and the way they cared for Buddy allows us to not worry when we're away - we know he'll be in good hands with them. We highly recommend Four on the Floor Pet Care to anyone who is looking for someone to care for their pet(s)!

Mike and Mandi cared for our two cats recently while we were out of town. They came buy for drop-in visits twice a day. One of our cats is diabetic and requires insulin injections and they were able to administer the insulin with no issues. They sent photos with every visit and the cats were well cared for. I would highly recommend them and we will be using them again.

Mike and Mindy have been caring for my two Siamese cats for over a year now since my other pet care person moved onto another position. I’ve been very pleased and they take photos of my babies Each day that they care for them And text them to me After they visit them, so I know that they’re well taken care of. It’s a nice added touch that they Take that extra time in taking photos and sending them to me. It’s also nice that they can water my plants as well and other things I need to ask them such as Bringing in packages if they’re delivered when I’m not there. They’re very conscientious and I would highly recommend them. I’m glad that my former Pet care person recommended them to me. 🙏 Donna

I love my animals so much (two pups and a bird) so when I needed to find someone to come walk my girls, I was super skeptical and nervous. I also wanted someone who can maintain my work with my German shepherd, she can be reactive while on leash. When I met with mandy and mike, both put my anxiety at rest with their confidence and general care for my girls wellbeing. I walked and showed them how each works on their leash and how they place and return to their crates. They both have been so considerate with my particular needs and so flexible with my ever changing schedule. I been using them for now a couple years as a consistent walker and or pet sitter and they have yet to let me down. I recommend them to anyone who is near by.

We started out having Mike walk our two dogs. They are a little wild on walks and he took it upon himself to work with them some on his own accord. He sends a picture each day that is cool when I'm away. He has also house and and walked the dogs. His pricing is very reasonable compared to other service providers. I'm not one to give reviews but Mike is super and deserving. Meet him and you will see his causal but strong love of animal come through immediately. Can't say enough about him...use him, you won't be disappointed.

Great, reliable service! Highly recommend them in the San Diego area.

This was the first time our puppy, Warlock, had ever been to boarding. He stayed from a Friday night until Sunday night while we enjoyed our weekend in San Diego. He is quite shy at first around people. The staff was very caring and attentive to him. Great communication by staff prior to and during Warlock's stay. Loved the report card and photos that were shared with us.

Chex had a great first day! We love the report card and how they separate dogs based not just on size but energy level too. Facility was clean and staff were great! Looking forward to bringing him again soon.

We wanted to get our 5 months old puppy ready to be board in the event that we need to leave her if we go on any short trip. When I went to their website I was very impressed. I filled out all the documentation that they needed and decided to go down there just to see what it looked like and felt like. Everyone was nice and made me feel comfortable about the whole situation. The free orientation day went very well. Since my husband works all kinds of hours if I am out of town it is nice to know that they are available 24/7. It is nice to have the flexibility of knowing that are beautiful baby will be taken care of very well when we need them. The place seemed very clean and everyone is very nice. That was our experience at the Escondido location. The prices seem to be very good so we would highly recommend this business for your dogs needs.

I cannot say enough great things about 24-hour dog daycare! My dog, Wednesday, absolutely *loves* it here. The moment we pull into the parking lot, she starts wagging her tail with excitement, ready to spend her day with the wonderful staff and other dogs. The team is so attentive, and I know Wednesday is always in great hands. What really stands out is the level of care and attention they give to each dog. Whether it's playtime, nap time, or just some one-on-one love, they truly treat every dog as if they were their own. I love that it's 24 hours, giving me peace of mind that Wednesday is cared for, even during late-night shifts or unexpected work hours. It's her absolute favorite place, and I couldn’t be happier with the service! Highly recommend to any dog parent looking for a trustworthy, caring, and fun environment for their pup. Five stars!

I rarely write reviews on here, but I wanted to give credit where it was due and compliment the excellent service we’ve received at 24HDD time and time again. For the past two months, our senior German Shepherd Remy has attended daycare here several times and boarded here for a weekend. He always has a great time hanging out with the staff and his doggy friends. The online portal is great and so easy to use. The staff is incredibly attentive and quick to respond whenever we have questions or need to book a last-minute appointment. Just tonight, they updated Remy’s vaccine records and emailed me to let me know almost immediately after I uploaded the file. Something as simple as a quick response makes all the difference. Thank you, 24HDD!

This place is awesome. We were in Escondido from out of town and our senior goldendoodle who suffers from severe arthritis stayed in a private boarding suite while we attended a wedding. They were so kind to her and took her out poty a couple times and also let her play a bit in the play room. They handled her gently and kindly. We hated to leave her at her age, but upon seeing the facility and talking with them, they put our minds at ease. When we picked her up, they provided us a "report card". It was very nice of them that they took that extra step. We highly recommend this facility.

My Sally pup had the BEST time here at 24 hour dog daycare. The staff was so sweet and caring and took their time to make sure she was acclimated before introducing her to the other pups. She made so many friends and had the time of her life playing. All the pictures they sent with her report card put a huge smile on my face while I was at work. We will definitely be coming back !

Parker had his first daycare experience here and he loved it. The updates were great and the staff kind. Can’t wait for him to go back!

My Hans just spent his first 24 hours at this facility and we're so impressed. Everything was easy and smooth. Our pup isn't a social dog with other dogs and they had so many safeguards in place. It was a completely stress free drop off and pick up experience. I love that he came home tired, but totally happy and without that stressed out dog smell! Highly recommend and will definitely use them again.

Wow! What a great experience. Was nervous bringing Lola to her first Doggie Day Care, and the staff seemed to genuinely care for the dogs as their own. They wrote up the sweetest report card and then sent these AMAZING pictures at no cost. These are high quality and professional pictures, and was such a nice surprise. We will for sure be coming back.

We’ve been using Dogs on the Run in 2020 and now again for over a year after moving back to the area, and we couldn’t be happier with the care and attention our pets receive. Melissa is fantastic with Dino, our dog, taking him on daily walks and capturing great pictures along the way. She always goes the extra mile to make sure he’s happy and well-exercised. Bella has been equally amazing, especially with overnight stays. Her special care for Dino and our cat, Rick, gives us peace of mind knowing our pets are in great hands when we’re away. We highly recommend DOTR for their exceptional service and genuine love for animals. Thank you, Melissa and Bella, for your dedication and care!

Lora from Dogs on the Run was absolutely fabulous! We went on a family ski trip for a little over a week and Lora watched over our pup. We have a 2 year old lab and love her so much. Lora treated her like family and took such good care of her. Every day she sent me photos and updates which was a nice bonus. I've attached a few of the photos she sent over while we were gone-it made me so happy to get these updates;) We will definitely be using her services again when we travel or anytime we need someone to watch over our pup. Highly recommend her and Dogs on the Run!

Toby is more than just a dog sitter; he's an exceptional caregiver who goes above and beyond to ensure Sasha's well-being. His attentiveness to her needs, coupled with his ability to engage her and adapt to her energy levels, truly sets him apart. What's remarkable is his deep knowledge of canine behavior, allowing him to tailor his care to Sasha's specific needs throughout the day. Witnessing Sasha's excitement as we approach Toby's house reassures me that she's in the best hands possible. Toby's regular updates, complete with videos and pictures, keep me at ease while I'm away, and I appreciate his dedication to ensuring Sasha's happiness and safety. He takes her on adventures all over town, which lights me up every time I see it. Recently, we tried boarding for the first time with Toby, and he exceeded all expectations. Sasha returned happy, mentally and physically stimulated, and well-rested. I wholeheartedly recommend Toby for his exceptional dog sitting and boarding services!

Dogs On The Run has been a life saving service for us, helping to always make sure our pup has his daily walk. We appreciate the concierge service, the fantastic dog walkers (shout out to Tracey!), and the sub walkers (yay, Alexis!). It is my daily joy to receive a picture of dog Levi on his walk with Tracey. Thank you for being so trusting and dependable, Dogs On The Run!

This is my first time using a pet sitter as my pup always travels with me, but when I could not take her on a recent trip, I turned to Dog on the Run. They were fantastic, very responsive, they paired me with the wonderful Jeanice who was an absolute angel!! She kept in contact, sent me pictures of my fur baby and they got along great!! She made my trip a carefree experience as I knew my Keely was in great hands! I highly recommend DOTR and Jeanice!!

Dogs on the Run is a reliable pet service with exceptional walkers like Sophia, Hannah, and Heather, who captures amazing photos on their long adventure walks. Genie was always there for us in emergency situations, and we truly miss her. Owner April consistently ensures a great experience, providing follow-up after appointments and any changes in service. Highly recommend Dogs on the Run for all your pet care needs!

I cannot say more good things about DOTR. Athena watched my sweet dog for 4 days and was nothing short of amazing. My dog is nervous/hyper and Athena worked with her and gave me so many updates as I was Away. I felt So comfortable knowing Cali was in such great hands and under such sweet care. 10/10 would use DOTR again and Cali can’t wait to see Athena again. She was AMAZING

Dogs on the Run came very highly recommended and they have been a life saver when I needed a pet sitter for my 20 lb pug mix dog. Right from the start, their professionalism was evident. They were fast to respond and asked me a series of pertinent questions regarding my dog's requirements and temperament, so that they can find a pet sitter who was the best match. Based on our discussion, they connected me to Shae. Shae is the best pet sitter I have worked with. Shae was always punctual. My dog, Chewy, instantly bonded with her. Shae followed all my instructions perfectly. Chewy can be leash reactive and hence walking him can be challenging, But Shae was very patient and careful with him. At the end of each session, she would send a detailed report along with pictures, which I very much appreciated. She was a pleasure to work with and I will be requesting her services on a regular basis. After every pet sitting gig, 'Dogs on the run' always followed up with me to get my feedback and ensure my satisfaction. I highly recommend DOTR and Shae for your pet sitting needs.

DOTR is an OUTSTANDING DOG-SITTING RESOURCE, & they have sitters throughout a broad section of the country. We used them while traveling for a family event in Berkeley, CA. The sitter, JANA was a sweetheart, was punctual, & professional, & even advised us when she reached our hotel. As I requested, she kept us updated on our puppy's status throughout the time she took care of her throughout the 2 days we were there, walking her, playing with her favorite fetch balls, etc, She sent us numerous adorable photos for my phone, & thorough updates, further making me feel confident that our puppy was in excellent hands. I couldn't have been more pleased, & STRONGLY RECOMMEND "DOTR" for reliable, professional dog-sitting services.

I can’t possibly express how much I love my pup’s sitter, Jan. She knew exactly how to make me feel comfortable with my dog staying in a new environment. She provides timely updates and is all around a wonderful human. My dog gets plenty of playtime and has made new doggy friends. I can’t recommend Dogs On The Run highly enough.it is amazing!

Excellent care for your doggies! Colleen is the sweetest, most caring, animal-loving person I have met here! I recommend this facility with all my knowledge and heart!

Dogs are free to roam and seem happy.

Sirena is awesome! She is professional, reliable, responsible and always on top of things. She sends me an update after each walk without me needing to ask, and is very detailed and attentive to my dogs. It give both my husband and i such piece of mind knowing she is helping out with the dogs because she is great at what she does. She takes pride in doing a great job and stays up on her knowledge to give you tips about products and different things for your pets. I would easily recommend her to anyone looking for some extra care for their pets!

I would like to take this opportunity to share my positive experiences I have had with Sirena and her business, "Happy Trails and Wag'n Tails." I found Sirena through Yelp and decided to contact her based off the positive reviews I found. My first conversation with Sirena was extremely professional and efficient. I gave her a background on my two dogs (border collie mix and Rhodesian ridgeback/pitbull- both BIG and VERY high energy), and what I was looking for and asked if she would come and meet my dogs, and myself, before we agreed to start a business relationship; I have had some bad experiences with dog sitters/walkers in the past and am careful about who I leave my fur babies with. When Sirena got to my house, my dogs IMMEDIATELY liked her ... They both ran up to her and she welcomed them with open arms. She had no reservations towards either of them, and seemed completely comfortable and at ease. Her attitude towards them made me comfortable as well. After spending that time with her, we decided to start walks two days later. Sirena sent me her business contract and I gave her all the info on my dogs. Her prices were more than fair and I was excited to have found her. It has been about 5 months since I first met Sirena and I honestly couldn't be happier that I did. She is the most professional and caring dog walker I have EVER met. She is prompt and gives an email report of how my dogs were for that day. When we first started with Sirena, she would take our dogs together. About a month into her walking my pups, they had some issues and we decided it would be best to walk them separately. Sirena was very understanding of this and offered her help in anyway possible. She had tons of advice and experience to offer which I appreciated. Recently, we had some pretty bad fires by our house. When this happened, I was at work 40 minutes away and my husband was traveling and unavailable as well. I immediately called Sirena who was already heading to my house to walk the pups. I asked her if she could stay with them for a little until I could get off work and she agreed without hesitation. She ended up staying at my house for close to 2 hours to make sure I got home and that my dogs were safe. She then proceeded to stay in touch with me over the next coupe of days with updates on the fires and to make sure we were safe. She was seriously a godsend. Overall, I would highly recommend Sirena. She is the most responsible and caring person I have met in the industry to date. I feel that my dogs are 100% safe with her and know they love the time they spend with her. Shefollows all the rules I have in place for my dogs. She is very friendly and I know she truly loves the dogs and what she does.

We have used Sirena on two occasions to petsit our kittens and adult cat. Each time, she has surpassed our expectations. Sirena is extremely detail oriented and does exactly what you ask her to do. In our case, the kitten and adult cat were still living in separate areas of the house, but allowed to mingle with each other supervised. Sirena followed our directions on how we wanted them separated, and followed up and gave updates with text messages, photographs, and emails. Bottom line is, you can trust Sirena 100%. If she says she will be there, she will be there. If you ask her to do something a certain way, you can be assured it will be done that way. It is obvious that Sirena is an animal person. We as pet owners can see it, and it is apparent that the animals can feel it too. They love her!! If you're looking for reliable, trustworthy, and loving care for your animal, Sirena is the person to call!!

Greatest Dog Walker out there!

I randomly stumbled across Pets in Paradise when my high energy pit bull mix was not enjoying her other daycare as much. Pets in Paradise has been incredible! My dog is very selective in who she likes, and she absolutely adores the staff here. She gets to run around outside all day and the staff sends pictures and updates throughout the day to provide peace knowing she is enjoying herself.

I love this place!! My dogs always come back happy, fresh from a bath, and tired from having so much fun. Thank you to the incredible staff for taking such good care of my pups Bowie and Rocky!

My dog Sadie doesn't like many people and won't even go for a walk with good friends of mine who she knows well. However, she absolutely loves the staff at Pets in Paradise. In the morning, she waits at the door for their arrival and practically jumps into their arms when they come to pick her up. When she comes home in the afternoon, she is tired and happy. I have been unable to walk her, so Pets in Paradise has become a life saver for me and also for Sadie.

My dog loves this place. She comes back happy and tired. The taxi service is awesome. She jumps right in the van without saying good bye. All of the staff I have met have been so friendly. I highly recommend the doggy day care or boarding to anyone!

Our waiter Alex was AWESOME! Food and drink were great and view of the race track was fun!

Great rustic environment for pets to enjoy...staff is professional and knowledgeable and truly care for your pets of all sizes

Very caring employees and always polite and smiling because they love their job.

This place is great. They really go the extra mile!
