Availability
I work from home on a flexible schedule, so your dog has company and supervision for most of the day — regular walks, play, and potty breaks, not long stretches alone. I offer boarding and daycare and take just one family's dog or two at a time, and I'm glad to keep your dog's normal routine for meals, naps, and bedtime. I always mark as unavailable any days I have travel or major time commitments that will keep me away from home for more than an hour or two, so they will have constant care while they're here.

Safety, trust & environment
Your dog will have free range of my 3 bedroom home, detached studio, and very large, securely fenced backyard full of fruit trees. I don't have pets of my own right now, so your pup gets the whole space and my full attention. I'm happy to crate or set up a quiet separate area if that's what your dog is used to, and I keep things calm and low-stress. I have a doggy door for dogs who prefer to let themselves in/out at their leisure. I converted our detached 2 car garage into a recording studio, where I work, so we have the quietest place in town in the event we have to make it through fireworks or if your pet prefers quiet or isolation. Both the house and studio have their own separate HVAC systems, so they'll definitely stay comfortable. I have always slept with my own dogs, so happy to co-sleep with yours if that's what they're used to, but also glad to maintain whatever rules you generally set for them in regard to being on beds/furniture.

Information William L. would like to know about your pet
I'd love to know your pet's routine, needs, and the rules you usually enforce with them. Whether they have any medications, allergies, food restrictions, etc. Whether they get along with kids (My 6 year old son lives here half the time too, but he's a pro at not bothering dogs who don't want to interact with him) and whether they get along with other dogs (in the event we have another dog staying on the same day)
A typical day
My alarm is set for 7AM every day, so we're always up by then at the latest. Everyone gets potty time and breakfast right away. At 9AM my robo-mop starts cleaning the house, so we usually decamp to the backyard, studio, or for a walk while she works (some dogs don't care at all, but some lose their minds barking at the robot). By noon it's generally pretty warm here in Pasadena, so we're usually back inside until about 4PM (We still go outside for potty breaks, but make sure to keep it short if it's above 80F) We have dinner in the evening. A walk after to help digest, and always a potty break right before bed to stave off any overnight accidents.

Dog lover, WFH, big fenced yard
Pet care experience
I've shared my home with two to four dogs since coming to LA 15 years ago. Because I work from home, your pup gets a calm, dog-savvy human nearby all day — frequent yard breaks, play, and belly rubs instead of hours alone. I'm comfortable with puppies, seniors, medications, and high-energy dogs, and I keep my numbers small so every dog gets real one-on-one attention.
