Sophie's Play Place - Dog Sitting and Boarding - Los Angeles, CA

Member since Oct 2017

Welcome to my home away from home for your beloved pets, where I bring over six years of dedicated pet care experience to ensure your furry friends are safe, happy, and entertained. As a licensed and insured pet care professional, I specialize in providing top-notch daycare and boarding services for dogs under 39 lbs. My two-tiered backyard offers a stunning view of the city and bridge, creating a serene environment for your pets to play and relax. I believe in the importance of exercise, and I'm thrilled to take your dogs on invigorating hikes and walks, especially to the beautiful Cabrillo Beach, to keep them healthy and happy.

With a keen understanding of pet behavior and a commitment to safety, I ensure all dogs in my care are comfortable and compatible with each other, avoiding any aggressive behaviors. From the first "meet and greet" to the final pickup, I provide a smooth and reassuring experience, complete with regular updates through texts and photos. My approach is designed to give you peace of mind, knowing your pet is cared for with love and professionalism. Having worked with pets since October 2017, I have honed my skills to cater to the unique needs of every dog, making sure they feel right at home during their stay.

If you're looking for a reliable and passionate pet care provider, I'm here to give your furry friends the attention and care they deserve. I don't offer mobile services, but my centrally located facility is perfect for your convenience. Whether it's their first stay or a regular visit, your pet's comfort and happiness are my top priorities. With a flexible 24-hour cancellation policy, booking with me is stress-free. Ready to get started? Book me through Petworks today for a worry-free pet care experience!
