Their board & training is well worth it, as your dog is not only safe and socialized, but training every moment. My pup does weekly pack adventures with Katharine and she has created a unique set of skill development tools that have evolved with my dog's development. I would give 10 stars if I could.

Although our specialty is with dogs and seniors, we are happy to walk any dog who needs the exercise.

We had some very stressful interruptions to our schedule while awaiting surgery far away at UCLA, but Shelly was easily able to roll with the punches, and helped us in every way to feel that at least everything at home was just as it should be. She gives us email reports, and is just a generally smart, thoughtful and experienced woman who can easily do this job and does it with grace. I have recommended her to friends and certainly recommend her to you. Thanks, Shelly!

Shelly is great! I moved from San Diego to Morro Bay about a year ago and after only being here for…read morea few months I needed to go out of town for a family emergency. Being that I was so new to the area, I didn't have any friends on the central coast that I knew or trusted well enough yet to come and check on my elderly cat and feed her. I did a little research and found Shelly. She was wonderful! She came over and did a consult with me about my cat and what was needed before I left. I was nervous about putting someone I had just met in charge of my kitty and giving a key to my house, but by the time she left I felt like my sweet fur baby was in good hands. And I was right! Shelly went above and beyond and took out the trash with the litter scoopings and brought in my mail which were things that I did not ask her to do. Plus she sent me daily reports, which really helped give me peach of mind. You know when you worry that the worst case scenario is going to happen you go out of town and your pet will get sick or (worst case scenraio) die? I know it's silly, but it's easy to worry about that and we've all heard those occasional terrible stories. Well Shelly's daily reports really put me at ease. I told myself everything is going to be okay and I don't need to be coddled, but it turns out that having the daily report really helps me! So I love that about her services. I had such a great experience with her that I used her the next time I needed to leave town, even though by then I had made friends with a neighbor I could have asked, but with Shelly I knew that my cat would be well taken care of and I could rest easy while out of town. I definitely recommend her!

This review is very difficult for me to write. We boarded our 1 year old yellow lab with Susan once…read morebefore and that stay had gone well. He came home filthy, but that is to be expected. We decided to board him again for the weekend we were moving from Paso to SLO to avoid having him underfoot with the movers. When I picked him up on Sunday he was standing at the gate with a sad look in his eyes. He jumped into the back of the car as fast as he could and immediately began crying. He was caked in mud so we took him directly to Lemo's pet store for a bath. He cried the whole way there. I was shocked because I have never heard him cry like that before. Susan mentioned that 2 of the bigger dogs had been obsessed with our dog and they "played" a lot so I thought he must just be really tired. During his bath he cried the entire time. As the mud washed away I was sickened to see mud crusted/bloody sores all over him, along with a bite mark on his neck. Then I noticed the bottom of his paws were blistered, swollen and raw. My poor baby. When we got home, my fiancé called Susan to find out what had happened. She played dumb and said the two dogs were chasing him around and trying to bite his collar. She separated them for a bit and then let them at it again. My poor dog was bullied for 3 days and she did nothing to keep him safe. As for his paws... it was 108 in Paso that weekend and the vet said his paws were burned from running around on the hot concrete. Her response was that she has shade for the dogs. Well apparently, her little shade tarp is not sufficient. I imagine my poor dog doing anything he can to get away from the other dogs and sacrificing his poor paws in the act of trying to get away. Our poor dog has been so traumatized that for the first 3 days he was home he would startle and start barking aggressively at any small noise. I know Susan means well and would never intentionally let a dog be hurt, but it has been heartbreaking to see our dog suffer from staying at her kennel. It seems like maybe she should charge more and have fewer dogs so that she is able to manager them better. All I know is that my dog will never be left there, or at any kennel again.

Upon meeting Susan, during the get-to-know each other phase, our family immediately felt at ease.

We will definitely bring our dogs back to Susan during our next vacation!

However, my fears were soon set aside as Linda took my dog while I removed my board from my car and began putting on my wetsuit. Without me saying a word, she suggested walking my dog within eyeshot. Little by little, I started feeling more confident and was able to relax. Her suggestion of remaining close helped my dog to feel less worried as well as the yummy treats she fed her. What I found most remarkable about Linda was her flexibility. Like an expert surfer, she navigated the situation with ease, rootling through her trunk for a towel when I forgot one, finding water for my dog when she got thirsty, and safeguarding my car keys when I was in the water. All this while a wildfire was causing evacuations within a county of her house! Vacationing as a single person with a Border Collie is not without its challenges; thanks to Linda, I was in a better position to meet those challenges and have fun.
