Hello and thank you for taking the time to read my "about me" section. My name is Laticia, I'm a Dana Point local residing 2 miles from Doheny state beach. I've loved and owned dogs my whole life, ranging from dachshunds to pit bulls, mini poodles to English mastiffs. Fortunately I come from a loving home where even my parents brought home strays! We always had a few dogs growing up and it brought my siblings and I so much joy! Currently I specialize in small to medium sized dog in-home boarding and daycare. I have an extensive background with all kinds of temperaments from fearful and shy to overly excited in need of exercise kind of puppies. I also manage elderly canines if you're in need of a more quiet family style space for your dog(s). What sets me apart from others is I've been caring for canines for over 10 years! I love what I do and was sick of seeing dogs left in warehouses with no humans staying the night. I have the ability to consistently be available for your dog(s), administer any and all medications including insulin shots, and offer daily walks and exercise. No matter how your dogs eat, I will provide a safe feeding station for them, I can refrigerate any food provided and will cook meals with or with out a microwave at your request. My home is a 4 bedroom two story with a large open first floor plan for any dogs with hip or joint issues, I have a safe gate that restricts dogs from going up and down to prevent injury. There is always indoor, outdoor access with water inside and out. I have a nice sized yard with secure & locked gates located on each side to keep all dogs safe inside, and a large cemented area to roam & play fetch. I do require that your dogs are child friendly as I have two young girls, 9 & 5. Both children love dogs and have been around them their entire lives. I pride myself on providing a safe and loving environment for your fur baby! Thank you again for taking the time to get to know me! My children are homeschooled so we have a very open and flexible schedule. We wake up early for potty breaks and breakfast and fit walks & exercise into our morning routine with ease. My hope is to be available for any of your scheduling needs. I do allow early drop offs as well. I have a secure fenced in yard, security gates that remain locked at all times. I have an 8month old German shepherd pup that’s friendly with all dogs, and trained to protect my home. To keep your dogs safe they will be kept separate any time I’m out of the home for grocery trips or taking my girls to piano lessons.
