This was our second time booking Selien and she was consistently great for the entire experience! Very communicative, sends lots of photos, and our dog seemed like he had a great time. Can't recommend her highly enough!

We had a great experience with Selien. She was very responsive and communicated consistently throughout boarding. We appreciated the relevant updates and photos, which gave us peace of mind knowing Marty was happy and well cared for. We were able to truly enjoy the vacation without worrying about Marty. Definitely recommend Selien to anyone looking for a trustworthy and dependable pet sitter.

Selien is not only conscientious and caring, she is also a wonderful resource on dog rearing and a calm voice of reason to anxious dog parents like myself. She is a blessing to both Teddy and his human family!

So happy Selien was available to take care of Gohan for us. He was super happy to visit his “friend” and the spin he does when we tell him he will be going to her place is reason enough to keep booking her. You will NOT be disappointed if you choose her!

Schedule

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.

Separation available as needed. My home is divided into two equal parts with potty areas. • In accordance with best practices, ensure your dog is up to date on vaccinations and flea/tick prevention. • Cancellation Policy: 3 Days Clients get a full refund if they cancel by noon 3 days before the stay starts. After that, they get a 50% refund on the first 7 cancelled days and 100% refund on any days after that.

A typical day

I start the day with a lovely morning walk. Breakfast a little afterwards. Mental and physical stimulation are important. Naps, playtime, potty breaks are interspersed throughout the day. Free access to the bathroom is always available. Lunch and dinner are fed according to you dog’s schedule.
