Dog Tired San Diego - San Diego, California

Evan Trippler

We work from home and have a high energy/anxiety jack russell, perfect service for her. We send her 3x a week on the adventure walks, always comes back happy as a clam and “dog tired” the rest of the day. They handle everything, pick up and drop off, rinsing her off, etc. Even send an email with pictures from the day. Definitely a great value for the service provided.

Dylan was great in helping my dog Remi overcome her anxiety around skateboards. Remi would dangerously run into the street barking after a skateboard. Dylan brought his own skateboard to my house to introduce techniques we can use to manage Remi's anxiety. In our last training session, Dylan suggested we meet at a local skatepark. Remi did great! She is a different dog now. Couldn't have done it without Dylan and the Dog Tired team!

Dog Tired is the BEST! From their puppy classes, to their canine good citizen class, to private training, fiesta party school bus, to their boarding. Sara and Craig run a tight ship of love, care, training, and affection. We use them for everything and are so grateful for our DTSD team. Our dogs truly come back happier, better trained, clean, and DOG TIRED. THANK YOU!!!! ?

We have used so many of Dog Tired's services and no one can top what they have done for my active chihuahua mix!

Our pup waits by the door and cries in excitement when he sees Adam or Nico picking him up for pack walks. He loves to see Craig too, even though he knows it means we are likely leaving for the weekend. Sara's dog training showed us how to mark and reward his good behaviors, and within one training session our excitable pup started to walk calmly by our side. Getting photo updates of our dog playing with his pack mates makes our day!

Keeping our only dog socialized is really important to us, and Dog Tired helps us meet his needs.

We recently signed our hound up to get him out of the house and socialize. We also want to work with him on recall so we can take him to the beach. We've been using Dog Tired for the past month and it's been such a great experience!! Craig is the best and understands nervous dog parents and how to help put them at ease instantly. The pick up and drop off that is included in the pack walk is amazing and super convenient! Kaleb is now perking up whenever we say its '"adventure day!" and lets out a loud excited howl when he sees Craig pull up. He's also sooooo tired when he comes back and seeing the pictures of him running around and super happy is just the best. Seriously couldn't recommend Dog Tired enough.

Thank you Craig for all that you do and continue to do for Kaleb - we are so appreciative and can't wait to recommend Dog Tired to all of our friends/family!

To put it simply, Dog Tired and Craig make it possible for me to own a dog. I'm an attorney and often work long hours out of the house and sometimes travel, and do not have the flexibility to make sure my dog gets out enough during the day without some help. Lucky for me, my dog has been a part of the DTSD pack since the day after I adopted her. She's picked up in the morning and is dropped off again in the afternoon, tired and happy. I've also used the staycation service when I'm traveling, which means she stays in Craig's house with his own dogs and is treated and loved as though she were his own dog. The team pays real attention to each dog and they are quick to let me know if my dog is acting strange or if they notice any other issues. Craig even went so far as to drop off a stool sample at my vet's office when he noticed worms, knowing that I wouldn't be able to do so myself until the weekend.

Craig also goes above and beyond in his flexibility and willingness to accommodate last minute requests. My dog is on a regular 5x per week schedule, but I've also made same-day requests when weekends have gotten busy or when I've failed to plan ahead, and Craig has always made it work for me. I was lucky to find DTSD, and I can't imagine what I would do without Craig and his team!

If I could, I'd vote Dog Tired best company in the entire universe. We have a rowdy pup, Cashew, who we love more than anything in the world, and Craig and his team treat her as if she was one of theirs. Craig is communicative, reliable, punctual, and professional. Cash comes home happy, safe, and exhausted! The team really knows what they are doing and how to handle dogs of all types. This is soooooo much better than the traditional daycare setting.

Cash has also taken a "staycation" with Dog Tired when we needed to go out of town, and I'm pretty sure she was disappointed to have to go home. She had much more fun with Craig and his wife! And we have peace of mind knowing she's safe, cared for, and living comfortably at their house.

We are in the process of buying a house right now, and we love Dog Tired so much that one of the factors in our house hunt is remaining within Dog Tired's service area. It sounds absolutely crazy (truly, we know it is nuts), but we really can't imagine our lives without Craig and his team!

***UPDATE - Almost one year later and we still have nothing but amazing things to say about this company. Our dog has stayed at DTSD quite a few times in addition to her weekly walks. Each time, she comes home healthy, happy, and tired. We get regular updates and photos, and we know who all her best friends are. She is SO excited to go with the DTSD crew - she would 1000% ditch us for anyone there. She's over the moon excited when we are in the vicinity of DTSD. I truly don't know what we would do without DTSD!!!

We are pseudo-newbies to San Diego, by way of NY, and are not always trusting of people - it's the New Yorkers in us! 🙂 But Craig was a DREAM to work with. When you put your trust in someone to take care of your fur baby, it's a lot to ask - and Craig delivered! We live nearby and often see him walking his sweet dogs and when we contacted him to see if our dog, Kali, could join him and his pack for a sleepover while we were out of town for the weekend, he was more than happy to take her on. We met the day before drop off at a local park to make sure the dogs were well-acquainted before the slumber party and even from that initial instance, we knew we could trust Craig to take care of our little girl. We forgot our bags and he was kind enough to pick up after Kali for us - that's dedication 🙂 You can tell instantly that he's a true dog lover and his laid back demeanor helped ease our minds (and our dog's!). We received updates and pictures throughout the weekend of Kali romping around with the pack at Dog Beach and playing with Craig's dogs. He's super responsive, professional, dedicated and on point. On my way home today after just a few hours of leaving Kali alone, I heard her howling from down the block! I think she misses her friends and was lonely! We will certainly be using Craig's services again. Need a dog walker, dog sitting services, or a fun adventure for your pooch while you're at work all day? Contact Dog Tired San Diego - you (and your dog!) will NOT be disappointed! Thanks Craig, Sally, Caly and Timone! 🙂
