Safety, trust & environment

Boarding includes supervised backyard playtime, walks, TV time and cuddles. Doggy Daycare includes everything that boarding does minus the overnight stay. *** Your dog must be up to date on vaccinations and flea/tick control. *** Bring your dog’s food and bowl, medication, leash, dog bed/crate, shirt with your scent, and a couple of toys, I have extra water bowls, beds and toys. Drop-ins and dog walks: I will come to your home to care for your dog. Drop-in visits include feed, refresh water, potty break, play and cuddles. If you also have cats I will give them some love too and refresh their food and water. Dog walk includes a walk around your neighborhood, water, feed, play, and cuddle. You may request a shorter or longer walk. I can walk slow or fast depending on how much exercise your dog needs.

I have used Lana to take care of my beloved dog skipper. I would highly recommend her as she is hands-down. The best person you will ever find to take care of your pets. She is unsurpassed in her attention to detail and this is not a job for her. It's her passion if you are in the Laguna Hills area and need someone to take care of your pet. She is the one sincerely Larry Pagliarulo.

Ilana always takes care of Pepper so well. She is great for boarding and for stopping by to check on / walk Pepper during the day. She is very detailed oriented and is one of the very few people I trust to care for Pepper.

Schedule

I work from home during the week (M-F) so I offer drop-in visits and dog walks early morning, lunch-time and evening. On weekends, I can provide these services any time of the day that works for you. Boarding includes supervised backyard playtime, walks, TV time and cuddles. Your dog will be treated with love. ❤️ Doggy Daycare includes everything that boarding includes minus the overnight stay. ❤️

Cats
0 to 15 lbs
16 to 40 lbs
41 to 100 lbs
over 101 lbs
Ilana can host up to 3 drop-ins per day
*** Meet & Greet recommended for new clients Transportation policy: For safety and scheduling reasons, I don’t offer pickup or drop-off services. All dogs must be dropped off and picked up at my location. Please let me know if your dog has any special needs, needs to be fed or have their water bowl refreshed, has a favorite place to walk, or favorite game. I prefer dogs who walk nicely on a leash. If you have a cat or two I will give them some love too and refresh their food and water.
