Mind The Dog

General Info

Samantha and Jon Mears are originally from London, England. They moved to Southern California in 2006 where they established Samantha Mears Dog Training & Pet Sitting. Samantha managed the Training side and Jon Managed the Pet Sitting side. They quickly began to make a name for themselves as two of the most sought after Pet Professionals in the area. Spending so much time providing expert care for other peoples' pets, they experienced severe frustration whenever they wanted to visit London and had to leave their dog Murphy. They were deeply dissatisfied with the Boarding, Training and Kennel Facilities in the area. They decided to make it their mission to introduce a premier facility in Encinitas for discerning dogs and their owners. Woofingham Palace was created to fulfill the wish list of everything they wanted in a Boarding Facility for Murphy, with the personal service they felt every owner deserved. Meet the Business Owner

DAYCARE,TRAINING,BOARDING Our mission at Woofingham Palace is to create an environment that your dog would choose for himself. We don't think it's necessary for your dog to have to spend any of his time in a kennel. In fact we believe this so strongly your dog will spend NONE of his time in a kennel when he is at Woofingham Palace. Other Daycare and Boarding facilities may actively discourage your dog from running and playing with other dogs. That is because they have too many dogs, in too small a space. At Woofingham Palace we actively ENCOURAGE your dog to run as fast as he can and engage in fun and frolics with his other doggy friends. We can do this because we have nearly an acre of artificial athletic turf in our dog area. We also have shade sails to keep them cool even on the hottest days. We believe that the more time your dog spends being mentally and physically stimulated, the more tired and happy he will be when he comes home to you. All Training classes are taught by Samantha Mears a fully qualified Professional Dog Trainer. They are held within a private, fenced in, training area. All classes are kept purposefully small so that each client can receive individual attention allowing all of their training needs to be met. Woofingham Palace Training uses a humane, effective, scientifically sound approach that is enjoyable for both dog and the owner. This will make it easy for you and your dog to succeed.We offer Group Classes, Private In Home Training and Telephone Consulting. We will work with you to create an individual training plan that is tailored to your needs.
