Availability

I am home most of the day and when I do leave it's usually only for an hour or two at a time. Most of what I do at home (working on a computer, household chores, yard work) I do in the presence of whatever dogs happen to be staying at that time. One limitation that I do try to stick to is to avoid scheduling drop-offs or pickups on Sundays before 10:00 am. Unfortunately, Rover doesn't give me the option to block off those times without blocking out the entire day so adding this note here is the only way to give you a heads up (hopefully, you read this before booking).

Safety, trust & environment

I have a fenced yard and usually board 2 or 3 dogs at a time so that they have playmates. If ever I leave the house, dogs are left inside. Dogs that stay here must be up to date on shots as well as on a flea-prevention medication.

Information Robert T. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if your dog has any special needs or behaviors that I can account for. My preference is for dogs that get along with other dogs.

A typical day

I try to make sure your dogs have something to do. We play in the yard, take walks around the neighborhood, and explore nearby regular parks and sometimes a dog park.

Pet care experience

I’ve had several dogs throughout my life and will probably be getting another one or two within the next year. My main option on here is dog boarding but, depending on the dog boarding schedule, I or somebody else on my team could also be open to do drop ins, house sitting, or walks, especially for those who have already used our boarding services. Please ask about these additional services after a confirmed boarding session. I’m in the middle of taking a few years off from teaching high school because A) Who couldn’t use a break from that? and B) I am focusing on building up a short-term rental business (Airbnb mostly). As an Airbnb host I spend a lot of time at home and have found that one of my favorite things to do is play with dogs in the yard (especially, when there’s more than one of them here at the same time!) and take them on trips to the park. I love dogs and am very reliable, trustworthy, and flexible. I live in a house with a fenced yard and all of the instructions you leave will be followed to keep your little buddy happy & safe!

I've been taking my husky mix Ginger to be with Robert for a couple of years now, sometimes for as long as 8-10 days. Robert has always been so attentive, caring and calming for Ginger. I get pictures and an update every day from him and it puts my heart at such relief to know Ginger is so happy, enjoying good company with other dogs, getting socialization, walks, and nurturing. Thank you and Lord bless you, Robert.

Great experience. Robert is kind and accommodating. My dog stayed there for 9 days and had lots of fun. Thanks!

Robert was a life saver to our family vacation. We booked with Robert while driving from the Bay Area to Southern California and he responded within minutes. Robert kept us updated daily with either pictures and/or videos of Roxy hanging out with other doggies that Robert boards. Roxy came home a happy and tired pup. We would definitely recommend Robert for your boarding needs in the Southern California area.

Robert was absolutely wonderful! He took such great care of our puppy and kept us updated with messages and photos, which gave us so much peace of mind. Highly recommend to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and caring!
