Shangri-La for your Dog 🌈

Pet care experience

• Compassionate, Empathetic & Reliable Sitter • 1 dog preference, 2 max (small-med dogs) • I prioritize safety and quality of care first • I’m almost always at home • Spots are on a first come, first served basis & only guaranteed when fully confirmed and payment rendered. • Please check my calendar for availability! I have over 18 years of experience (including 4+ years on Rover) caring for dogs of all ages. I have always found profound purpose in it and understand the unbreakable bond we have with our pets. I am grateful for the opportunity to board & protect your beloved pet with the same compassion and due diligence.

Selien has taken care of our little guy twice now! Once for over night and we trusted her so much we booked her for a 10 day vacation. Our pup is a nervous senior rescue, and while he likes people he gets very anxious in new spaces and with being separated from us. He settled in quickly with her and snoozed the day away as if her were home with us! We received plenty of photos and updates which we sincerely appreciate, since we always miss him when we’re away and worry like many other pet guardians. She was a fantastic communicator, sitter, and a generally sweet person. Highly recommend :)

Selien was very accommodating with my schedule. Candy is a puppy and not many people would watch her, but Selien did a wonderful job. She’s the best!

I’m almost always home, so I will have plenty of time to walk, play, and keep your dog company. I reside near Cal State LA, in the University Hills, on a vast, gated property. Your dog will love to take walks, frolic in the yard, relax on the sofa, watch T.V., or sit on the porch advantageously positioned for people watching. At nights, they may sleep in the full size bed, doggie bed, or crate. Security and protection are my top priority. I believe in exercise, positive reinforcement, affection, and strive to develop canine relationships based on trust and mutual respect. I’ve mastered the ability to project calm, assertive energy. Your dog will appreciate the steady leadership, companionship, and enjoy the fun and peaceful atmosphere.
