This review is very difficult for me to write. We boarded our 1 year old yellow lab with Susan once before 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. read more

Words cant express my gratitude towards Susan. New to area I was taken back by the high cost for Dog care. Good gawd man most places are charging $45 minimum a day. Ummm, for $225 a week that better include training! Obviously folks in the area are willing to pay high prices for their baby!?!?!? Susan doesn't take advantage of those who require her services. Before even bringing Bella she sort of interviewed me over the phone. Wanted to know our dogs needs, current shot status and temperament. Also, ask to see proof of shots. Located close to the heart of Paso Robles its very convenient for our needs. Bella truly loves Susan and her home. I swear Bella is depressed when she doesn't go to Susan's house! Hahah Give Susan a call if you need dog daycare. She is willing to work with her customers needs. We are beyond thankful! read more

We took our Miniature Australian Shepard to Susan's in June 2024. (She had previously been bitten by another dog-with an emergency visit to the vet because of infection) So we were pretty apprehensive and afraid Remy would be traumatized being around other dogs. But we needed to find a suitable place to board her because we do travel frequently. We are so happy with how it all turned out. Remy seemed to be calm and comfortable there, We could tell she really liked Susan, who went above and beyond to make her happy! She even sent us pictures and videos of Remy playing and relaxing. This really helped to set our mind at ease. I would certainly recommend this place to anyone. Your dog would be well taken care of. read more

Susan's Bed and Biscuit - Remy on Susan's lap. - Pet Sitting Near Me - Paso Robles, California

Just picked up our two dogs from Bed and Biscuit after they had an 11-day stay with Susan. To say it was a positive experience is an understatement. Upon meeting Susan, during the get-to-know each other phase, our family immediately felt at ease. As our dogs began their stay with Susan, her attention to communication throughout their stay continued to be a great encouragement to know that they were in very capable hands. We will definitely bring our dogs back to Susan during our next vacation! read more

We have been leaving our shy, older dog with Susan and her other "customers" for several years and have complete confidence in Susan and the kennel! Susan has always been very attentive and extremely good with our dog and the others. Our dog has improved greatly with her interaction and tolerance with other dogs! Susan's Bed & Biscuit is an ideal place to kennel our 'sweet girl' and we are happy to recommend!! read more

Excellent personalized service. Susan treated our little guy like her own family. We needed her to watch him for just a few hours and she encouraged us to leave him longer and go out on a date night. We were not able to take her up on the offer but it was very nice gesture and she is very very reasonably priced. We will use her services again. read more

While visiting Paso Robles, I needed a place to drop off my pup Holly for just two hours. I contacted many kennels/dog daycares that didn't work out due to it being around the holidays or other daycare requirements. Susan went above and beyond to accommodate Holly and her rates are incomparable. Since Holly is dog selective, has a bite history, and gets overwhelmed by large groups of dogs, she needed her own space. Susan was able to set Holly up with her own private area where she could still be near the other dogs. We were concerned Holly might bark a lot during her time there but since it was only for two hours, Susan was willing to take her in anyways. She ended up behaving well and made herself right at home. Thank you so much Susan for giving my dog a chance (and for making our trip less stressful)! read more

Nice place to leave your dog , Susan is very friendly, our dog if's enjoyed staying there.

Very pleased. She was kind to my moms dog and kind to us. I highly recommend her place. The dogs all looked happy to have fun together.

Susan takes great care of the dogs at her place - and they all seem to have a good time in her ample outdoor space. We dropped our two labs with her while we played golf recently, and they were happy and tired when we picked them up. A great find in Paso! read more

A wonderful place for dogs - a true home away from home! Susan is wonderful, treats all pups like her own, and the free play space is a doggie dream! Our dogs second favorite place on earth. read more

We have had a sweet poodle that we inherited thru a death in the family. This little girl has been thru a lot, losing her Mama, and relocated from WA to CA. She has come along way being socialized, but still skittish. So it was with great apprehension to make the decision to have her go to a daycare. We were in Paso visiting and discovered not every business is dog friendly, so we made that decision to have her stay with Susan for the day. I found Susan here on Yelp, but had the opportunity to talk with others who use her services. EVERYONE had nothing but excellent comments about her. We dropped her off with Susan,and she took to her right away. Susan has pens for larger dogs and separate ones small dogs. We appreciated that so our baby didn't get trampled on with dog play. (Did I mention, our girl does love other dogs, but slow to warm up to humans) We picked her up about 6 hours later. She was happy as a clam and almost too tired for her evening walk from playing at Susan's. I highly recommend this business. read more

Great experience. Susan seems knowledgeable, great with the dogs and considerate. Left our dogs, a border collie and a catahula mix there for two nights and the pricing beat other kennels we have used. Susan is a pleasure to do business with and easy to find. Her setup is one of the best. We will use her again when we go to Paso to visit relatives. She also does daycare for dogs. JJ Downer read more

Susan was so great! We came into town to camp for the fair but because we were gonna be gone all day, had the doggies stay here! She was super attentive and flexible with our drop off and pick up times. I'm not gonna lie I was super nervous to leave them but she was great!!! read more

Susan is the sweetest, kindest, and most capable of making your dog at ease. She took my nervous Buster and got him to play with the big dogs! I was shocked. Love, love, love Susan's kennel! read more

Susan is our go-to gal even though we don't live in the area. She takes great care of our small dog Lulu who is normally really afraid of other dogs! She always comes back happy and tired! read more

First time boarding our pups (1 year old Lab/Border Collie; 8 mo old English Bulldog). Our dogs are our family, they live in the house with us but they get a lot of outdoor/farm time. I checked out a few other places and finally decided on Susan's for our week long trip out of town. Susan is a very sweet, personable lady. The kennel area was clean and organized. All the dogs looked happy. I knew the Lab/Border Collie would have a blast with the big dogs but I was worried about our clingy cuddly Bulldog. She tends to get easily winded and would rather be a lap dog. During our week away, Susan texted proof-of-life pics of the pups at play. I assumed they would come back a stinky, sweaty mess with how much fun they were having. But they came back clean, and almost as well rested as us! Working with Susan is a no-brainer. We will definitely use her service again. Highly recommend. read more

We love Susan's Bed an Biscuit! She's a wonderful person and takes great care of our pup. I highly recommend!

Susan is great! We left our dog, Buddy, with her for the first time this past weekend and he didn't even want to come home! She sent pictures throughout the weekend so we knew he was happy and doing well. Her rates are super affordable and she's just a pleasure to work with! Highly recommend! read more

We are originally from Paso Robles, now living on the East coast! We left our fur baby Reagan with Susan while we took our grandkids to Alaska! Susan is awesome! I LOVE her!!!! I feel like she is family. We picked up Reagan and she seemed to have a great time! lol a little hoarse from barking, but happy!!! I know the next time we take our kids on vacation on the west coast I will be calling Susan! Thanks Susan!! Donna Vittorio Boone, North Carolina read more

Home away from home, for our pooch! Susan does a great job with the dogs, they always have fun and she provides very charming updates on how the furry ones are doing. read more

We have been boarding our dogs with Susan since 2008 when we first moved to Paso. At first we had 4 dogs but now we have only 2 (border collies aged 1 year and 15 years). They love going to Susan's and when we pick them up they are happy and tired. The several play yards are always clean and well maintained and Susan is very thoughtful about which dogs she puts together in each yard. She is conscientious about asking for proof of vaccination and is willing to accommodate even somewhat complicated diet and medication regimens. She is also great with the dogs and a pleasure to do business with. We recommend her highly. read more

Susan is amazing with pets and truly cares about them. We couldn't have found a better person to trust with our Dobies. Thanks to her we were able to fully enjoy our honeymoon trip. She kept us at ease by occasionally texting us videos of them playing and interacting with the other pups. Susan is knowledgeable, friendly and caring. She makes sure to do a meet and greet and has a lot of thoughtful questions to ensuring your pup has a great stay. We highly recommend her! read more

Susan is the best! My two small dogs and I were displaced by the Northern California Wildfires and her compassion, care and help during this time was amazing. Cooper and Mabel had never been to doggy day care, but they were well cared for, loved and happy each time we went back. Thank you so much Susan!!! read more

Susan is just great with our dogs! They love going to her house to play for daycare, and we love knowing that they are safe and happy in her care. read more

This was the first time we have ever boarded our fur baby. We had lots of concerns as she is alpha and suffers separation anxiety to say nothing about what a princess she is. I did check out other kennels and chose this one because Susan offered to let my dog stay a couple of hours as a trial. Very thoughtful offer and it worked out perfectly. Susan kept in touch, sent videos and pictures to calm me. My little fur baby came home just the way she left, happy, clean and well fed. Highly recommend Susan. Next year or sooner we will board our little friend with Susan should the need arise. read more

I have been boarding dogs with Susan for years. She is warm and friendly, and the attention she gives to all her visitors is gratifying. She is honest and trustworthy. She'll give prescription medications I bring from my vet. She knows all her regular visitors by temperament and keeps certain ones in the right places. I've seen her out walking her charges when I drive by. She's simply the greatest. read more

Susan is the best and our dogs love it there! Her overnight service includes dog walking, doggy pools, several separated large areas for play and food for a very reasonable price. She is also very flexible with drop off and pick ups. She is very knowledgeable and has plenty of info on local vets should you ever need to update your vaccinations or are visiting Paso. This is the perfect place for your fur babies to stay! read more

We brought our 9lb toy poodle with us to paso for a wine weekend getaway, and left our 12 year old at home. Our furry baby is a lot harder to manage than our preteen at hotels and wineries. So we searched for doggie am day care and came up with Susan. Even though there weren't reviews I decided to call. She is the owner of this doggie daycare/boarding. I left a mssg and promptly received a phone call. She was so patient and informative with my questions,concerns, and her services. I immediately called our vet in San Jose to fax over patches vaccinations when we realized his kennel cough had just expired. I called Susan back and she was so kind and understanding. Even though our furry baby didn't actually get to board with Susan I was so impressed with her customer service and diligence in not only asking what patches needs were but also making sure every pup she takes is up to date on their vaccinations I decided to write this review. Patches will definitely have a place to stay on our next visit. read more

Susan is great! Our fur child always returns home happy and exhausted. Highly recommend this place for doggy daycare or boarding.
