Xtra love in your dog’s second home
Pet care experience
Boarding dogs has been an exciting and a most rewarding experience. I take in multiple boards, which I call my rotating pack. Many of my dogs are regulars. They are more than my clients, they are family. I love my boards and often feel like their “fairy dogmother” I love having them here and I think they know it. Anyway, they seem to like it here too. My favorite thing to hear is a customer telling me how happy and excited their baby was to come back here. I have a fenced yard, and great baby pool for water lovers, and I’ve worked hard to make it a good little dog yard. Im an actor, student, and am self employed. I am home a lot of the time, and often if I step out to go to class or something it is only for a handful of hours. The dogs have human company almost full time. My decision to take care of dogs has turned out to be one of my best decisions. Thanks to the love of the animals under my care, my life is changing in the most positive ways. I am grateful for each furry ball of love that walks through my door. After years of periodic searches, the stars finally seemed to align in late October 2019. I adopted a small mixed breed puppy from the South Los Ángeles shelter. He name is Chico. He is a sweet, curious, playful little guy, and he still has much to learn. At 6 months old he is only about 15 lbs. That’s way smaller I imagined and am used to, but he melts my heart at a glance. I knew the second i saw his pic that he was mine. I dropped everything and went straight to the shelter to bring him home. On December 22, 2019 I lost my baby, Atreyu. He was a black Labrador Retriever whom I adopted at 8 weeks old. He was with me for almost 14 years. He was the most noble, well balanced dog, and loving dog. I was so lucky to share so much time with him. Raising Atreyu taught me a lot about dogs, and perhaps more about myself. He was my sole companion for a long time and he was my best friend. There are no words to describe how much I miss him. I love him forever. Being able to work with dogs, boarding them here, and having Chico at my side have all be such a gift in this time since my BubU left. I am grateful to be surrounded by so much love. My boards are my furry family. 🐾♥️☺️💫

A great stay. Our dog came home happy and tired. Lots of picture and video updates. Gabriela is very warm, an animal lover and a good communicator.
Gabriela was AWESOME! My pup had a great time with her and I was relieved knowing he was in great care while I was away.
Gabriela was great. Very responsive and flexible.
Took great care of my puppy. Communicated well and kept me abreast of how he was doing.
