A family home in Turtle Rock, Irvine
In-home dog boarding in Irvine, with care that feels personal.
Your dog stays in a family home with Igor and Zamira. We learn their routine, take neighborhood walks, and send updates while you are away.
Texting is our preferred first step. We confirm first stays only after meeting you and your dog. Tapping Text opens a draft in your Messages app. Nothing is sent until you press send. Your number and message come to us. See our Privacy Policy.

How a first stay works
1. Text or inquire
Tell us your dates, every dog, and their care needs.
2. Meet in Turtle Rock
We arrange a meet and greet near University High School.
3. Review the stay
We discuss behavior, routines, availability, and the complete quote.
4. Confirm personally
Your stay is reserved only after we confirm it with you.
A familiar rhythm
Walks, rest, and attention
We follow the routine we discuss with you before the stay. Tell us about meals, favorite activities, energy level, medication instructions, and what helps your dog settle in. We share photos and messages so you can see how they are doing.
Clear care, clear pricing
Boarding is $50 per 24-hour day, year-round. An additional half-day is $25. Daycare is $40 per day. No extra fees. For several dogs, send one inquiry and we will provide the complete quote before confirmation.
A request does not reserve a stay.
