Pawsome Pups Dog Care in La Mesa

I found this great resource in La Mesa. A place for doggie daycare and overnight boarding as needed, training offered too. The owner is great and the space is amazing. Just thought I’d share. My neighbor needed a place while he goes to work for a few hours. Dogs must be able to free range with other dogs and then they get to play and socialize and get tuckered out. Thumbs up and paws up to Katerina and Pawsome Pups! 👍🐾

My giant Bernese Mountain Dog, Bodhi is very shy and can be nervous around other dogs. Katerina welcomed him with kind, gentle arms. After one week he was playing with all the dogs. After two weeks, we couldn’t keep him away. Bodhi now runs into Katerina’s arms and almost busts down the gate every morning to get into her yard! Katerina is amazing and Bodhi loves his doggy daycare. Bodhi always leaves happy, exhausted, and eager to return. It makes me and my husband relieved that he has a safe place to play while we are at work.

Excellent doggy daycare. Very flexible and wonderful service. Normally our dogs are hesitant to be dropped off, but not here. They readily went with the owner. At pick-up, they were full of energy and relaxed. Our only wish - We wished the business was located near our home. We would use this service knowing our pets would be well taken care of during our absence. We highly recommend Pawsome Pups.

We began taking our puppy to Pawsome Pups when she was around seven months old. It was obvious from her first day that she was comfortable and fitting right in! The space is very dog-friendly and we love knowing that it’s cage-free, allowing all the dogs to run, play, and rest freely. We can tell our pup enjoys it because she is excited to see Katerina and she comes home happy and calm. Whether you’re taking your dog for the day or for an extended stay, Pawsome Pups is the place to go!

I can’t say enough good things about Pawsome Pups! Katerina provides such a warm, welcoming, and truly homey environment for the dogs—it’s nothing like a typical kennel. From the moment I dropped off my pup, I knew he was in good hands. He got tons of love, playtime, and personalized care, and I received updates that really put my mind at ease. The training sessions were also incredible—Katerina is patient, knowledgeable, and genuinely passionate about helping dogs thrive. I noticed such a positive change in my pup’s behavior after just a few sessions! I highly recommend Pawsome Pups to anyone looking for a place that treats dogs like family. We’ll definitely be coming back!
