The Doggy Casita - I Work From Home
Pet care experience
Hi! I'm a dog boarder with 7 years of experience excited to play with your pup! I am an active person who's into hiking, walking, yoga, and swimming. We do a fair amount of dog walks per day but not when it's too hot :) I love to host dogs in my home, and my puppy, Pepper, loves other doggies of all sizes but sometimes can take some getting used to as she is a little miss sassy pants. She is also very little so I am careful to only take friendly, non-reactive dogs. Pepper loves to play ball and tug of war be chased around the house and play. I give great belly rubs + booty scratches; I know where all the spots to hit are :) I prefer doing meet and greets either before you book or before the visit so we can make sure the dogs get along and I can ask you all about your dog, so you can rest assured that the dog is being taken care of when you're away. I ask for updated vet info and an emergency contact. If your dog is sick, I will want to take him or her to your own vet. Also, please note my housing complex has quiet hours, so I can't accommodate early drop-offs or late pickups outside of the hours of 8 AM-9 PM. Please plan accordingly and book extra if needed. Thank you for understanding!
Reviews
Shelly took great care of our dog. He had a some stomach issues and she kept us up to date and modified his food until he was better. She is excellent!
I’ve lived in LA for 2.5 years now, and Shelly has watched my dog every time I’ve left the state. She is AMAZING! My dog absolutely loves her, and she sends pictures throughout the stay :) I 100% recommend Shelly to anyone with a dog who needs a calmer environment than a more mainstream boarding option
Shelly was great! She walked our dog multiple times a day and he got lots of play time with other dogs. She is flexible and we were even able to extend the stay for our dog. Photos came regularly as well as updates. Shelly is just fantastic!
Shelly is great. She cared so much for my poochie and always send pics and updates. Will definitely use her again.

The bungalow complex has a fenced-in yard, but the dogs are not allowed to run free; we generally do walks for exercise and potties but hang out in the yard to say hi to other dogs,

I go hiking often, either in Griffith or Lake Hollywood or Griffith and now that it is hot, we like to do evening walks from my house to Larchmont and back. I WFH so we have a pretty regular schedule, most playtime in the morning and

Availability
I work from home and am usually around - if I go exercise or run errands, I'm usually gone only a couple hours max. We get up around 7:30, walk around 8, and then eat breakfast; then we do another walk around 12, 4-5, and a final potty at 10 - 10:30.
