Dolphin Pet Care is a private home in Redondo
Beach to share with dog friends. We have a huge fenced in yard. Please contact me if you have any questions.
Dogs are part of the family hanging out in the living room with us. Special attention to elderly & disabled pets so that they are stress free **Hello, Thank you for coming by;
Boarding "UNAVAILABLE" dates: October 17th to November 17th
ets for 13 years with a dog walking company and 10 years running my own dog boarding business, not to mention my whole life as a pet owner! It has been a great experience meeting so many wonderful pets and their owners. ***
**** We were "foster flunkies" with our dog Piggly...Piggly is an older girl...18 years old who we have had for 16 years. She is extremely gentle, sweet and submissive. Our home is best suited for those dogs looking for a calm and peaceful environment. Our dog is quiet and slow and we'd like to have her friends be that way too (some exceptions). At this time we are not taking on large high energy dogs or dogs who tend to bark excessively. I usually have about 2-3 dogs here. Holidays/heavy weekends can be up to 5 but I prefer just 2-3 dogs at a time. It all depends on the dogs! I have quite a few very established clients so I know these dogs very well and who works well with them. I rarely leave home when I have dog guests (especially daycare) but we will occasionally leave for 2-4 hours depending on the dogs. When doing this 7 days a week, occasionally my husband and I will go out for a few hours or I may have a couple of dog walks /pet visits for my other clients (dogs are never left together unsupervised unless they are "family"-dogs we have known for a very long time and we don't have to worry about them). We separate the dogs into different bedrooms/rooms when going away or to their kennel sanctuaries. Your dog may love to cuddle on the couch, take walks, run, play ball, sunbathe or explore in the large back yard..Our guests also love the comfy window chair where they can look out and watch the cats go by! I have extensive experience in caring for dogs with special needs or in their later years in life. Don't put off getting away as there is a loving place for your elderly or special needs pet! We are diaper professionals. Here is a little about me:
Growing up as an only child in the midwest I was always bringing home strays. I've had a deep love for animals my entire life. I consider myself a pet care professional. My guests safety, comfort and happiness is my first concern and I do anything I can to make them feel at home.
**I am also an artist so I am at home most of the time. I am creating a line of creative products to bring awareness to homeless animals and to help promote pet adoption. It is best to have a "meet and greet" to get a more confirmed price and to see if your dog is a good fit for our household.

$75.00 **You may qualify for a discount.
*puppies under 1 year old add $15

That will be determined in the meet and greet. *** I may be able to offer 24/7 care in certain situations so if you have a situation that you want 24 hour supervision for a certain period of time let me know and I will see if I can accommodate you.

This was awhile ago...but I thought it was cute how Chewie really enjoyed her ride home from the beach while listening to Led Zepplin!
Zoey loves the back yard! I love seeing all this luscious grass! Pretty soon it will turn to dirt. Zoey is one of our newest guests, 13.5 I believe and a really great girl.
We love the rainy days! Just a nice mellow relaxing day at the Dolphin Inn.
I will not be available on the upcoming dates to take boarders:
Boarding "UNAVAILABLE" dates: None at this time until October/November
During this Corona Virus pandemic, we are still open to take boarders, but it is dead as can be expected. We are offering discounts to those who are desperate to find a place for their pet, if they have an urgent trip to take. Just contact me. In the meantime I will use this site to feature pets that need homes! Make the best of your time off. Your pets will love having you home, and maybe we can all get some much needed rest and catch up on projects! Use your time wisely as our busy, exhausting days will be coming back :)
Thank you! Please contact me if you have any questions.

I have been taking care of pets professionally for over 10 years. I started with a dog walking company, became a member of dogvacay for 5 years, not to mention my whole life as a pet owner! It has been a great experience meeting so many wonderful pets and their owners. ***
**** We were "foster flunkies" with our dog Piggly...Piggly is an older girl...15.5 years old who we have had for 13 years. She is extremely gentle, sweet and submissive.
When the “virus” knocked us out of business, I went and adopted Penny our new/old girl..Penny is close to 14 years old. She fits in so nicely with our family.
Our home is best suited for those dogs looking for a calm and peaceful environment. Our dogs are quiet and slow and we'd like to have her friends be that way too (some exceptions). At this time we are not taking on large high energy dogs or dogs who consistently "mark" in others homes. (they usually don't do it in their own home).
I usually have about 2-3 dogs here. Holidays/heavy weekends can be up to 5 or 6 but I prefer just 2-3 dogs at a time. It all depends on the dogs! I have quite a few very established clients so I know these dogs very well and who works well with them.
Dogs get out every 2-3 hours for a potty break/walk/playtime in the yard. I go out to the backyard with them to supervise.
I am an artist, so I am working at home most of the time. We occasionally leave for 2-4 hours. Most dogs are separated when leaving the house, some are best staying together. I do occasional dog walks /pet visits for my other clients (dogs are never left together unsupervised unless they are "family"-dogs we have known for a very long time and we don't have to worry about them). We separate the dogs into different bedrooms/rooms when going away.

99% of the time I need a "meet and greet" to get a feel for your pet. It is also important that you feel comfortable where your pet is going to spend his/her time. It is at the meet and greet that we can go over all the information needed to make sure your pet has a healthy and happy stay.
