I am a Certified Dog Trainer here in West Hollywood for in-home dog boarding, daycare, & training. I take my job very seriously because I know that our dogs are our closest companions! For the record, I have had ZERO incidents regarding the dogs and I do believe THAT is something that a person should take into consideration when leaving their dog with someone!

Safety, trust & environment

Safety is my number one concern when I take in a dog for boarding and/or daycare & that's why I take the time to make sure the dogs here are properly evaluated & vetted. My yard is over-the-top secured. I urge people during a meet & greet to walk around & observe everything so that they have peace of mind. My home is clean & central air conditioned. I also have 4 air cleaners in the rooms so that it's very healthy for them to be here.I do keep a very clean environment, it's just the way I am.

Information Roxanne M. would like to know about your pet

My home Insurance does not allow me to have the aggressive breeds on the premises for liability purposes. People with Pit Bulls or other aggressive breeds, please find another sitter. Is your dog spayed or neutered? Is your dog up to date with his or her shots, including Bordetella? Is your dog Flea treated? Is your dog house broken? Is your dog socialized? Does your dog have any quirks, strange behavior, or allergies that I should know about? Does your dog have any quirks, triggers, or aggressive tendencies that I should know about? Does your dog have any contagious diseases like Girardia? Does your dog have any health issues that I should know about? Is your dog crate trained? I have a limit on how many dogs that I take especially during the **Holidays. Booking should be way in advance because I do get filled up quickly for the major Holidays. These questions answered gives me the knowledge that I need & allows me to take excellent care of your dog as well as protect other dogs that visit for daycare or stay overnight. Drop offs & pick up Times: Mon-Sun: 8:00AM-9PM No Late Night Drop offs or Pick Ups! My phone has a Do Not Disturb on all hours outside hours above.

A typical day

Being a Certified Trainer leaves me no choice but to have all of the dogs here working together for harmony. They will learn a lot while they are here. I Love what I do & I have a huge yard for dog fun & sun relaxation.. I do not walk your dog on the street. Because I have ZERO incidents with dogs on my property, it makes sense for me to have complete control while the dogs are in my care. Walking them on the street, can introduce incidents that could put your dog at risk due to clueless people walking agressive dogs. Many people prefer that their dogs are not walked & prefer that they have a yard to play with the others & get exhausted that way, therefore keeping them safe & secure.. Safety is at the utmost of my priorities & you can rest assured that your dog will be taken excellent care of and will come home happy & tired from all of the activity. Your dog's sleeping arrangement: Because I am a Certified Dog Trainer & safety is my utmost concern, ALL dogs sleep in a crate at night. If your dog is not crate trained, rest assured he or she sees the others go into a crate & wants one for himself. Occasionally, if an older dog has never been in a crate, he or she can sleep on the doggy bed in my bedroom. Time I'll spend with your dog: Most of the time unless I need to run a quick errand. They will be very well cared for & maybe not want to go home at all! That happens more times than I can count! The dogs just love it here & love having a strong leader (me)! They get plenty of fun time with each other in the yard while I watch them.

Pet care experience

This is NOT a Gig job for me, I do this full time. If you want the BEST for your sweet family member reach out! I have a Business License w/ Insurance for Dog Care in my home. In all the years that I have had this business, I have had ZERO incidents because SAFETY is my number one priority! *Meet & Greets are a must even if it's just for a few minutes. I want you to see where your dog will be & observe for yourself the clean & exceptional environment that your dog will be in. *ALL dogs MUST be up to date with their shots! *I will give excellent care & your dog is Safe & in Expert hands. I know what I am doing, so there is no need for worry whatsoever because your dog's care is my # ONE Priority! *I have a Clean, Huge-Secure yard for Well-Vetted happy dogs. I take a lot of pride in keeping the environment very clean for the dogs as well as for myself. I have central AC, 4 air purifiers in my home as well as I pay for weekly gardeners & inside the house cleaning. Caring for many Breeds has given me the familiarity & many years of experience that puts me beyond the rest of the crowd. I have worked with the Vanderpump Rescue so I am fully aware that dogs have quirks & issues but I need FULL disclosure in order for me to give the best service for your dog!. I do ask several filter questions to adhere to my safety rules which you can find here on the site & I will send them to you once you reach out to me. *When you send a request, after I respond, if I do not hear from you within 24-36 hours I will archive your request. If you need more time for planning, please LMK. because I want others to have a chance to book with me as your request just sits in the unending "pending" cyberspace as a possible booking which lowers my level on the search site. *Pit bulls, Pit Bull mixes (American Staffordshire Terrier) or ANY aggressive dogs, please find another sitter here on Rover that takes only one dog at a time. For liability issues, my home insurance does not cover having these dogs on the premises. *Daycare Hours: 8 Hours, Over 8 hours: $5.00 per hour additionally *Dog Boarding is a 24 hour cycle from the drop off time. *Over 24 hours goes into Day Care Fees. *Holidays are $10 more for both Boarding & Daycare. for the weekend of the holiday NOT the entire week. Rover charges for the entire time that you are away with the Holiday price, I do not think that's right so I will adjust it for you once you book the stay with me. Medication Administration: If it is one medication twice a day, that is fine. Once it starts to get into 2-4 meds several times a day, I will charge an extra $5-$10 extra a day depending on the meds, how long, how many, as well as how many times a day. (I have to do this, a client once came to me with a dog that was on 9 medications ALL were 2-3 X a day! It was a challenge to say the lest but it got done. Lesson learned- I charge for that now. **Advanced Senior Care & Special Needs: Max: $150. a night Senior Care varies, the price will depend on how much work & medications are involved & Drop offs & pick up Times: Mon-Sun: 8:00AM-9PM-9:30 latest I have a "Do Not Disturb" on my phone so late texts will be received at 7:45am. *Bring all necessary things that your dog needs in a bag, NO bowls, I have plenty, and I use glass, no China made ceramic that leaks poison into their food! If they use pee pads, please bring plenty of them. I DO NOT take care for dogs that have contagious diseases. **Food: $5.00 a day if I have to feed your dog because you forgot yours or it ran out. I suggest that you over anticipate the amount of what your dog needs to prevent your dog from running out of his or her food. Sometimes plans change & your dog ends up staying here longer for a variety of reasons. *Unused food will always be returned. **Bring a measuring cup with the food. Many labels are not carried by Petco or PetSmart, therefore it's very difficult for me to find your dogs food if they run out. You can always Amazon it to me. $25. charge for the time to go to the store plus the cost in case you forget the food. You can always Amazon Prime the food to me. I have been doing this for a long time & I have a Business License for Dog Care. Due to limited space, my preferences are to take dogs that are well behaved & under 40 pounds. *I look forward to meeting you with & your dog.. Any more questions that you have, I will be happy to answer & I look forward to meeting you & your precious Fur-Child! About Roxanne: It is important when you leave your pet in someone’s care, you can relax and know they will be well taken care of. I started my licensed business in the 90's because I myself have hired people to care for my own animals & had the same expectations as well as disappointing "let downs!" I am completely devoted to giving animals the best possible experience when they are under my supervision. I am a certified Dog Trainer so there will be a lot of advantages bringing your dog to me! I was involved with a rescue organization for over 10 years in the late 90's and have come across a huge array of circumstances in dealing with animals, especially dogs & cats. **Rest assured, I know what I am doing, I have excellent instincts, and I have a deep connection with animals. Being an animal lover runs in my family. My grandmother was the owner and trainer of the chimpanzee in the Tarzan pictures back in the 50s. My Aunt Bernice and Uncle George were the MGM trainers for all the wildlife and domesticated animals used in all the films back in the 50s and 60s. As a child, I always felt lucky because my mother allowed me to follow my intuition and rescue every lizard, bird, frog, cat, and dog that I felt needed extra love, care and attention. It didn’t take me long to figure out that I have a passion for both rescuing and an innate ability to care for all types of animals, especially cats and dogs. I learned at a young age that I had a special connection with animals and as an adult, I was able to channel my passion into a career where I get to provide cats and dogs with love and special attention. In addition to having cared for approximately 75 of my own pets over the last 36 years, I also spent 10 years volunteering for a rescue group called New Hope for Animals in Los Angeles. My experience there was incredibly rewarding and quite the education! Please let me prove to you that your pets will be in the best hands! I would welcome the opportunity to earn your trust and deliver you the best service in the industry. **Why I love caring for dogs: My first experience was when I was 1 year old, we had a German Shepard named "Rusty." I remember growing up with her & the bond that we had. As a child, I considered our pets as part of our family & our family always had dogs as well as other animals which made my life feel full of love! I come from a background of animals trainers & cannot think of a time that I was without a cat or dog! They are an intricate part of my life, always have been, & always will be! *Thank you for reading my profile. ROVER customer Service will help you with any questions or assist you with any concerns that you may have. About my yard My yard is very spacious, clean, fully fenced in & is doggie proofed with plenty of water for hydration. There are areas of shade from the huge Avocado tree & sun for sunbathing which all of the dogs love! People are shocked when they see this best little kept secret in the heart of Hollywood! Pictures are on this site.

Roxanne is the best sitter in LA! She is very knowledgeable about dogs and she takes such good care of my pups. One of my dogs is very old and has a lot of issues. Roxanne keeps me updated on everything daily and helps me with making sure he’s happy and comfortable while I’m away!

Planning a trip can be complicated, but when I leave my dog with Roxanne there’s one less thing to worry about. I always trust that he is safe and well cared for with her. I also know that she can handle his strong will and more enthusiastic moments. Thanks, Roxanne, for taking care of my favorite little man and allowing me to enjoy my vacation!
