“Dropped our dogs off for doggy day care while we went to Disney. Ronald was ready for them at 730 AM, sent us pictures of them playing with his dog while we were gone and was available for an earlier pickup then originally planned. Would recommend for anyone looking for doggie day care!”

“Joanna was awesome when I left Louis with her for the 2nd time! She kept me updated throughout the day & sent lots of pictures and videos. She also made sure to ask if Louis was ok to go to the dog park and was open to skipping the park if I wasn’t comfortable letting him go. Thank you Joanna!”

About: Hi there! We are a loving, active family excited to welcome your pup into our home. Your dog will be treated like part of the family—with lots of attention, affection, and snuggles! We have a safe, fenced backyard perfect for playtime and we love taking neighborhood walks to keep pups happy and exercised. Our home is full of love and two little ones , so we ask that your dog is comfortable around children. Our kids are gentle, playful, and love animals, and we always supervise interactions to make sure everyone is safe and happy. We can’t wait to meet your furry family member and give them all the love, care, and playtime they deserve while you’re Away! Pets are truly a part of my everyday life and schedule! I work as a hairstylist only two days a week, and even then, my shifts are very short—I’m typically only out of the house for about 3 hours at a time. This gives me plenty of flexibility and availability to provide attentive, consistent care for pets throughout the day. I make sure their routines—whether it’s feeding, walking, playtime, or just company—are a priority. I genuinely love having animals around and enjoy integrating their needs into my daily rhythm, so they’ll always have someone nearby who is engaged and caring Our smaller home but BIG YARD is a perfect combination for your little boy or girl . We have a secure yard but would never leave our friends in it by themselves . Your pup will be one with our family with a nightly walk and allowed to cozy up on the sofa if parents permit . Your pup would never be left alone for more than 2 hours at a time , and if we are out we leave the AC and tv on to keep them happy and comfortable.

About: Hi Everyone! Thanks so much for taking the time to view my profile. There are 2 experiences that truly shaped me as a pet parent, and eventually human parent: raising a 2 week-old newborn kitten, and supporting my 18 year-old dog bestie’s transition to the rainbow bridge. Through respectful pet care, I get to hone certain skills like responsibility, empathy, and consent. I work remotely and homeschool my 8yo daughter, who is also an animal lover and budding naturalist. So rest assured that your fur baby will receive lots of cuddles, play, and connection throughout the day! We are offering care for 1-2 pets at a time only, in our 4bd3ba home in North Long Beach/Lakewood area. We have fenced, large yards both in front and back of our house with grass, gardens, and a playground. We are also located in a residential neighborhood away from major streets/traffic. Here are some trainings I've attended on the (human) psycho-education side. I’m also a fan of positive reinforcement (R+) and natural rearing (NR) for animals. Thanks for reading 🌸 * Natural Lifemanship (Learning Institute for Equine-Assisted Services, including Equine-Assisted Psychotherapy) * Mother Hunger (Psychotherapist/ Researcher, Kelly McDaniel) * Parent Effectiveness Training, Teacher Effectiveness Training, & Leader Effectiveness Training (created by 3x Nobel Prize Nominee, Thomas Gordon) Note: Although I allow my daughter to participate in some age-appropriate tasks like feeding, playing, etc., please know your fur baby will never be left unattended. I will be considered the sole care provider responsible for your pet during your their stay with us. :) Because I work remotely and my daughter is a homeschooler, we are able to have slower mornings and more time to decompress throughout the day. If we are caring for a dog, morning and late afternoon walks are usually best for us. If we are caring for a cat, then we understand they are probably eager to eat earlier in the mornings. Throughout the day, playing with pets is a wonderful break from what we're working on. And there's nothing like the cuddles while working on the laptop, reading, or watching our favorite shows or movies. At this time I am only offering care in my home vs. visits or housesitting. I have fenced yards both in the front and in the back of the house, with grass, a playground, and gardens. Facetime calls, pictures, and videos are all welcome to give check in's for your pet.

“Michelle does a great job caring and watching our dog Buddy when we're out of town. I highly recommend her. She's responsive and we appreciate the pictures she sends periodically.”

“Mireya was terrific with our senior pup. She allowed us to do a meet-and-greet the day before so our pup could become familiar with her house. The next day our dog was ready and excited to go back. Mireya provided Abbie with a walk while we were away and we were pleased with the care she was given.”

“Yasaira was wonderful, treated my boy like he was her own pet and I would say went above and beyond with care. Walked him, sent photos, even made him chicken and rice while he was there. Very sweet and I could tell my dog was happy and well taken care of”
