Works at home; Dog park steps away!

Pet care experience

My boyfriend Chinna and I live in a spacious apartment near the ocean with our lab-mix, Travis and our cat, Weezy. We are both animal lovers, but dogs hold a special place in our hearts! When your pup stays with us, we will love them like our own. Chinna works from home full-time, and I have a flexible schedule and will always be home on weekends. Our complex has a dog park that is steps away from our door, so your pup will get plenty of play time during their stay with us. We are also surrounded by miles of trails for walking or running. We also have a very friendly cat named Weezy. Your dog will need to be cat-friendly in order to stay with us. We have experience with basic dog training techniques, and can support your current training plan while we are caring for your dog. We use positive behavior support and principals of behavior analysis to work with dogs with a variety of different behaviors, and we are especially skilled at supporting dogs with anxiety. We are comfortable administering medication.

Sparkle had a wonderful stay with Erica and Chinna, and my daughters loved the photo updates.

Erica and Chinna were the best, and cared for our dog, Indy, perfectly. She went to the beach, she played everyday with their great dog, Travis, and she even got a bath. Couldn't be happier with the entire experience. Drop off and pick up were beyond smooth. We look forward to booking with them again.

Erica and her partner did such an amazing job taking care of Charcoal, he had such a blast with them!!! They were so accommodating to our schedule as well. Will most definitely use them again for all our future Rover needs. Highly recommend them to anyone looking for an excellent and trustworthy sitter.

Erica and Chinna were absolutely amazing with our dog Nimbus. They were so kind, and send pictures and updates almost every day. They were also so accommodative of our travel changes. When we picked him up, it almost felt like he did not want to leave after 10 days of beach trips and cuddle time with them! We are so thankful that we found them and could not recommend them more for anyone looking for somewhere to leave their furry family!

Information Erica W. would like to know about your pet

Because we live in an apartment community, we cannot take dogs that are prone to prolonged/excessive barking or destructive scratching or chewing behaviors. We also require your pup to be housebroken and not prone to frequent indoor urination or marking behavior. Of course, we expect some barking and occasional indoor accidents, but we cannot accommodate these behaviors in excess.

A typical day

We love walks! We will take your dog for tours around the Ballona Wetlands, the Venice canals, or for an ocean-front stroll. If your dog prefers to run, we can accommodate daily runs as well - just ask!
