She Loves My Dog

She Loves My Dog provides in-home dog boarding in Los Angeles, CA, for small and medium dogs. Rather than a kennel run, dogs stay in a home, with playtime and meals part of the stay. The same team also covers overnight pet sitting, drop-in visits, dog walking, and training, so a dog's weekly routine can hold steady while their owner is away.

What it offers

• In-home dog boarding with playtime and meals
• In-home overnight pet sitting and drop-in sitting visits
• Monthly and standard dog walking plans
• Group Hikes & Park Adventures
• Dog training, with pickup and drop-off available

What sets it apart

Training runs alongside the boarding and walking work instead of sitting off to the side, and the approach is built on positive reinforcement. The business lists credentials through NAPPS, the Dogbiz Dog Walking Academy, West Coast Grooming Academy, and the Karen Pryor Academy Trainer Program. Group Hikes & Park Adventures give dogs structured time outdoors with other dogs, which is a different kind of day than a backyard.

Staying in touch during a stay

Clients use the Time To Pet app, which includes GPS mapping, potty updates, and photos. That is how owners follow a walk or a boarding day from wherever they happen to be.

Practical details

Boarding is listed at $135 per night on the company website. Booking is handled online. Office hours run 9:00 AM to 6:00 PM Monday through Friday and 9:00 AM to 2:00 PM on Saturday, with Sunday closed. Vaccinations are required for dogs in their care. Owners who prefer to talk first can call 310-466-5771 or email ligia@shelovesmydog.com, and the business also posts on Facebook and Instagram. Because boarding happens in a home rather than a large facility, space is limited by nature, so it helps to reach out well ahead of a trip.
