Mary Kay has always been wonderful. She takes a personal and vested interest in the wellbeing of my babies and communicates frequently. This last 4th of July I was going to be out of town and leaving my dogs for the first time. They are terrified of fireworks and I too was terrified to leave them. I mentioned to Mary Kay that I was nervous and she immediately responded with a long, detailed and empathetic email addressing all of the ways they handled the dogs on the fourth to make sure they were comfortable, including having loud fans and putting on talk radio for the dogs. I greatly appreciated her long and thoughtful response and the actions they took to make the dogs comfortable. All of the other staff at this location have always been friendly, attentive and responsible. I have left my dogs here for weeks at a time and they are always happy and healthy when I pick them up. My dogs are also jumpers and diggers and the staff pays special attention to these concerns and put them in the jump proof play yard. The facility is wonderful, the staff is great, their prices are fair and I wouldn't board anywhere else. I've tried other boarding facilities in the past throughout the county and none come close to Rocky Canyon

I recently hired Linda while surfing at Pismo Beach. Initially I was a little nervous as I wasn't…read morefrom the area. 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.

With my wife's family in Texas, we would spend some holidays there. We took our three poodles to…read moreMadoggy when we did. The woman who ran/owned it was a bit officious. Once, when I went to pick up my pups after a week vacation in San Antonio, my little female went (predictably) berserk when she saw me. The woman looked at me and said, in a very accusatory tone: "she only acts that way when you're around." (!!) I felt like saying "and you felt compelled to mention that because..." Anyway, as you might imagine, three dogs for a week at a time made for a VERY healthy bill (even though I brought my own food and blankets for the kids and they SHARED a kennel), and we did it for a year, year and a half. So we gave her a pretty penny. Eventually, we realized the owner was drugging our dogs. We'd pick them up, they were lethargic, seemed depressed, and on the way home to Cayucos, and once we got there, did nothing but zonk out and sleep. We found alternate arrangements for when we traveled... A couple years later, I get a phone call from this woman asking if I'd be willing to have one of my poodles impregnate her Lab so she could begin selling Labradoodles (a hot item at the time). In the course of the conversation, she says this: "you know, when I dialed this number, I expected it to no longer be in service." (!!!!) The implication being, that we (my wife and I) would no longer be living in the high rent district of Cayucos!! (Since I had the lowly profession of Cab driver I assume). VERY tactful. She may have already lost this place, from the looks of things here on Yelp. Or maybe her husband, who was in PENITENTIARY when I was dealing with her, came back and mucked up the works. Either way, good riddance to a tactless, mean spirited, irresponsible "boarding" service.

This was our 5th generation of a northern breed. We know the dogs can be fantastic if.....trained correctly. We went through two other trainers with Keema, but they failed to get the dog to do anything. When Mike arrived for our first training session, I was bleeding and crying from frustration of just trying to get a lead in Keema. She's a sweet dog but very single minded. We are very clear that it is as it needs to be trained. Within 10 minutes in the presence of Mike, she calmed down, begin to listen and respect us. What he did with our Keema was a miracle! After he left the lesson and behaviors he taught her stuck. Her bad behavior was all but gone. Now each week he makes new strides, that delight us and frankly blow our minds. What he's gotten this malamute to do his beyond wonderful. Look for her and Movies. If you have a dog that you want to be proud of- invest in Mike!

I feel honored to get to be the first review for Kelly's pet sitting!…read more My partner and I had a professional event to go to at the end of October. We were trying all the normal avenues to find in-home sitting (rover, wag, etc) as we have an extremely old dog who struggles when his routine is deviated from. We thought we'd locked down sitters THREE times through Rover- each time they'd come, say they felt fine, then a few days later bail on us for some variety of reasons. By the time we came in contact with Kelly, we were less than a week out of our trip and in a lurch. I called Kelly in a panic after our third sitter canceled, and she was super responsive and came out for a meet and greet the following day. Our dog was immediately smitten, and we said let's do it. It's always nerve wracking leaving your dog with a new person for the first time, especially since our pup is super old and our home is very new to us. Kelly was punctual, professional, low maintenance, and left our home looking like no one had been there at all when we got home, despite staying for overnights with our boy. In addition, we had the unfortunate snafu of our power completely going out (yay country living) and Kelly handled the punches like a champ- professional, communicative, and nonplussed. Her rates are so reasonable for the area and she was highly trustworthy. We would 100% use Kelly again for future sitting jobs. Thank you SO MUCH!!!
