Barking dogs are going to be an issue because my space is surrounded by other units. Older dogs with hip issues may be a problem on my stairs. Weeks out commitments are difficult for my schedule, I prefer a week or 2 or less notice. A Note about Feeding: My belief is a dog should eat twice a day. Food is fuel and then it's a regular schedule for elimination and keeping their system regular. The food should be in a sealed container. If your dog does is a 'picky' eater, strong chance that the dog has allergies to some of the ingredients in the food. I am not affiliated but have found the Nutriscan test at Hemopet helpful for identifying allergies. Food switching is a process you would do over time, please do your own research.

Redondo Beach Dog Park is nearby, if your dog is good in the car and good at the park, I would love to take them over there. Neighborhood I live in has a 71 walkscore rating, 71 out of 100, very dog friendly area. *I have bowls do you don't need to bring them. I you have a bed or a mat, bring it. Let's speak about a dog kennel before you bring that. For dropoffs, I prefer a quicker goodbye. Dog will be a bit stressed so i take them for a walk as soon as you leave. Bring Extra Food! I appreciate exact packaging but I'll return the unused, just bring extra in case you are delayed. *If you are bringing a prong collar, can you please bring extra prongs. I see a lot of collars that are too tight so I'd be happy to play with the sizing for you while you are away. it should be loose so the prongs are applying light pressure and should never be left on a dog unattended. Great tool.
