Highlights
Pet care experience
40 years experience, animal lover!
Hi, I’m a professional dog trainer by trade with forty years experience. My training methods are always very gentle and balanced. I work from home in the La Quinta/Indio area. When you board your dog(s) with me they will always be loved and cared for, and will live and sleep indoors. While you are away I can send photos and videos. We take walks in the mornings. I only keep a couple of friendly dogs at a time. You are also welcome to stop by and inspect my home (bring your dogs so they can also check it out!). I can also pick up and deliver (limited range) at your schedule. Board your dogs with us over the holidays, or anytime knowing they will be safe and happy.

Don always takes special care with Rocky. We have total confidence when we drop our pup off!
Our first experience with Don was excellent! Little Biscuit was so happy and relaxed during his first daycare visit!
Don was so easy to talk to and Chillona felt comfortable with him right off the bat He sent lots of pics which put me at ease. Great experience!
Don was very accommodating and great at communicating! He took time to make sure our pup felt safe and comfortable for her 1st stay! Don sent us many photos and videos to keep us updated!
Excellent communication, the dogs loved Don. Don picked up our dogs the night before our flight (very helpful). Provided daily updates/pics, delivered the dogs without issue. Dogs were very happy and showing favor towards Don. We are grateful.
Had updates on my baby every day!

Schedule
I’m a professional dog trainer and I also board and walk dogs. I work from home mostly so I always have time and room for one more!
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
Forty years professional experience with dogs. I’m home most of the day. We take morning and evening walks weather permitting. I closely supervise my pet guests!
A typical day
The older dogs prefer to just hang out indoors. I provide a safe and secure environment for them. The younger and more energetic dogs will take walks, play fetch, field trips to our local parks.
