    Tala and Reese absolutely love this boarding and daycare! The facility is clean, the staff is kind and attentive, and I really appreciate the report card updates--it gives me such peace of mind. Highly recommend!!

    My husband and I love bringing our fur baby to Spring Creek Kennel and Cattery. We have a dirt covered yard with no roof, so we only bring our dog in on rainy days to keep him from playing in the mud. Our fur baby loves it and always leaves exhausted from a play filled day. Their cost for doggy daycare fits into our budget and we couldn't be more happier with their service. They always greet us and have nice things to say about our dog which we appreciate. The location is easily accessible but slow down or you'll miss it. They have plenty of parking and ample space for your cat or dog to stay. It's a very clean facility and your dog will not leave smelling like pee, as we have experienced in other places. I highly recommend you check them out and/or ask for a tour!

    Spring creek is the best place in the area for taking care of cats and dogs for a day or overnight. My cat has extreme anxiety and cannot be left home when we travel. We take our cat to Spring Creek whenever we travel now, and our cat loves it. Now when we travel not only is our cat happy but our house is in the same condition it was when we left. Our dogs also love going to Spring Creek for a hot day so they can swim in the pool, or for long stays when they can't travel with us. They always come home happy clean and healthy. The staff is very helpful friendly and accommodating, especially Kymberli and Megan who seem to go above and beyond with consideration and attention to detail. Thanks Spring Creek!!

    Bonus points for the amazing pics they take! You can see them on instagram

    Still the best kennel in San Diego. We are always very happy with the staff and conditions and never have any complaints. Every staff member I have met has been so kind and caring and you can tell that they love the pets so much. Manda, the manager, is especially amazing and sincerely loves all the pets there. The passion, caring, and kindness shows strongly. I have a lot of anxiety with leaving my girls anywhere for extended periods of time, except for this place. I know they're happy there, every time. Our Molly wears her emotions on her paws and she is a ball of excitement when we even park at the front. Our girls absolutely love it here and that means so much to a pup parent with a little too much anxiety over their well-being/happiness. We will never board anywhere else. The owners are amazing, I love the manager Manda, all staff are wonderful, and the prices are too. Couldn't be happier.

    Picking up Merlin 3

    We got a big dog from the pound 5 years ago. He is so smart and we love him very much. That being said ,we have never left him with anyone except family in the past when we had to travel and he couldn't go. But we had a family vacation planned with the family so he had to go to someone else. While looking for places for him to go to we found Spring Creek kennels on Yelp . We appreciated the reviews and decided to try them out ourselves. They are very thorough about vaccines, fleas, health and temperament which is very important for us too. The place is clean and the staff is friendly. They insist on at least one 20 minute playtime a day , which we could be happier about . But most important Merlin loves them. He's been there twice now and every time he is happy to go with them! Such a relief to have an affordable and caring place to take our fur family to in the event they can't go with us:)

    I was celebrating my birthday in SD from out of town with my partner and pup. Unfortunately, my…read morepartner didn't realize that dogs weren't allowed into the event that we were going to so I needed a last minute doggy daycare urgently!! I was so fortunate to stumble across Precious Pet Car on Yelp! Leila helped me through the whole process of signing up and booking and I was able to schedule a meet-n-greet and book a stay that same morning! Truly such a kind, responsive, and accommodating process. It was my first time ever sending my dog Mochi to a sitter and I was super anxious since he's already 10years old! The meet went even better than expected. The dog area was HUGE and there were so many toys and activity spots for the dogs to play or shaded areas to just rest. Shantae asked about my dog and explained the personalities of the other dogs that would be staying with him and I felt so reassured that Mochi would be just fine. A total bonus that I wasn't expecting was getting picture updates of Mochi having a blast! Seems like the old man got to have a little vacation on his own. Shantae informed me that he whined for a couple minutes after I left, which is normal, and how he got along with the smaller dogs and got to play with the water hose! Such fun surprises to me since he normally ignores little Dogs and water in general! I cannot recommend trusting your fur pets with Leila and her team more!! I was able to celebrate my birthday with ease knowing my dog was in good hands (possibly having more fun than even me!) When I'm down in SD again, I will definitely be utilizing Precious Pet Car services again! Thank you guys so much~

After having a…read morebad experience with a self-employed sitter, spotty availability with another self-employed sitter, and then deciding not to travel altogether, Leila and her amazing team at Precious Pet Care showed me that their high standard of care meant I could be at ease and take vacations again! I was referred to Precious Pet Care by a dog trainer I know. I was interested in their Golden Overnight Care services, a 24-hour service where the sitter is with my babies all day! In particular, my dogs are extremely attached as they are used to coming to work with me and generally being around me 24/7, so this type of sitter service was a must! I was given a link to request a meet & greet and schedule the days a sitter was needed in my home and met with my assigned sitter, Kate, prior to my requested days. Ever the worrier about my dogs, cats, birds, and guinea pigs that I would be apart from, Kate handled my bombarding her with information in good stride. During my vacation, I was pleased to see that she sent numerous photos, videos, and updates daily! Kate made me feel completely at ease while I was away and was such a great communicator. Upon my return, all my critters were happy, and the house was neat and clean! Kate made sure to take the trash out and clean up after herself as well. Truly a 5-star experience! I would highly recommend their Golden Overnight Care services to anyone who wants to enjoy peace of mind on their next getaway! Thank you to Leila, Kate, and the entire Precious Pet Care Team!

Well, it turns out, so is Nicole!! She made sure she knew everything needed for all 4 of my pets (two cats and two dogs) prior to me going on vacation. I was gone for 10 days, and she sent updates each time she visited along with pictures of all the pets. I opted for the twice a day for 45 minutes and it was worth every penny. I have never gone away and felt completely relaxed until now. After the first visit I was sold, she is my go-to person for pet sitting. She made sure all of them were well cared for and loved while I was away.

    What a nightmare! We took our dog here for a two day stay and I'm wondering if he will ever forgive…read moreus for it. Upon checking into the "hotel" we requested to see the area he would be staying in. His "hotel" room wasn't the greatest digs but it was clean and dry. As we were filling out the paper work for him to stay the lady must have asked us 4 times if they were responsible for feeding him while there. Seriously! I started to wonder then if he was going to even get fed for the next two days. I dismissed the horrible feeling and chalked it up to separation anxiety since I had never left my dog with a stranger or a "hotel" before. The part that disgusts me the most is when we returned to pick him up neither the same woman who checked us in nor the teenage boy who brought him out said anything about our dog being injured. As we were walking him to the car we noticed he was limping on his back leg. We immediately went back inside and asked why he was limping. The lady never really said much but the boy said our dog got his foot caught in the door as he was bringing him out and he was only bleeding a little. I looked at this punk kid and the lady and said "A little! Why on earth would you even think about letting us walk out the door and not even mention the fact that my dog just got injured in your facility only a matter of mere minutes ago!!" NEVER AGAIN! Would we even dream of taking our dog here!!!

    Now that I no longer live in my old place or in the area, I feel more comfortable writing this…read more Jeremy walked my dog for a few months after I moved to San Diego. He did a fine job, and I didn't have any major issues. My only issue in the beginning was that he told me AFTER our meet and greet that the time clock for walks starts when he walks into the building. I showed him the entrance closer to my place (which is right by the entrance), but he wasn't using that one at first. While I had wished that he communicated this during our meet and greet, I wasn't upset by it after we had established a steady routine. A few weeks/months after I settled into my new job, I had been granted the ability to work from home full time with a few occasional sporadic days in the office. I texted him to tell him that I won't need a walker after a certain date and explained that I'll be WFH. I even told him that I'd still like to reach out on days I'd have to be in-office. Later that day, he called to "ask" me what he did wrong. His tone was extremely confrontational and aggressive. I reiterated that I don't need a walker anymore because my situation had changed. He kept demanding an explanation. Honestly, I felt really put off by this. I had to tell him several times that it's because the situation had changed and it took multiple attempts to get him off the phone. He kept trying to push me because he didn't seem to believe me. Honestly, I don't care if he did. Before this conversation, I probably would have asked him to walk my dog on the days that I'd be in the office, but this made me so uncomfortable. Over the period of several months, he occasionally texted and/or called to ask me if we had any dog walking needs. I didn't answer, but eventually texted him to tell him that we did not. I understand his wanting a "reason" to try to improve. However, I gave him a reason. And even if I didn't, I don't necessarily owe him one to the point where he has to demand one repeatedly.
