Our Story in Valley Center

Our Mission

To provide dogs in our community with a home away from home to play, learn, and relax in safety and comfort, giving their human families peace of mind while they are away from them.​

Our story in Valley Center began In 2000, when Jeanne Miller and her family relocated, and she struggled to find the perfect place to care for her 3 high energy dogs that was more like a home environment than a kennel. So she decided to open her own facility and Two Paws Up was born.  15 years later, her cage free, home environment provides care to family pets who are now 3rd generation customers.  She has recently retired to Texas with her dogs and husband, and chose a local family who have been providing behavior modification and boarding in Valley Center for 5 years to take over and carry on her thriving business. 

Lori Martinez and her brother Don Douglass, along with their exceptional staff, have over 40 years of combined experience with dogs and  are committed to providing the same excellent service and love to all of the pets they care for on a daily basis. Their passion and dedication will carry on Jeanne’s legacy, as well as expanding on an already amazing environment.​
