I have had a house full of animals ever since I was a little boy. I have personally taken care of 5 of my own dogs. This includes the bare essentials of walking, playing, feeding, bathing and maintaining the happiness of my dogs. I have a passion for dogs in particular because they are such a care free species. They will show you how happy they are or they can show you that something is wrong.

“Top Dog Express”
Hi, I'm Daniel. I grew up in California housesitting for my uncles 3 Pitbull Mastiffs since I was 13. It was a daunting task at first - but over the years it made me become a dog whisperer of sorts. I am an animal lover in general, but K-9's are my speciality. I enjoy nature and jogging. I want to give your loyal companion the best workout possible. I will be thrilled if you let me be a part of your happy K-9 family too!

Hi! My name is Jennifer. I grew up with dogs mostly smaller dogs like Poodles and Shih Tzu’s. As an adult I’ve owned 2 Rhodesian Ridgebacks who both lived to be 12 1/2 years old.

Dog Boarding in Huntington Beach
Huntington Beach is one of many coastal communities in California. With close proximity to Anaheim, Long Beach, and Irvine, Huntington Beach sees a lot of tourists every year. While these beachgoers come and go, homeless pets in the area don’t have the option to leave the streets unless they are brought in to one of the animal shelters in the area.
The Orange County Humane Society has dedicated itself to the care of homeless, abused, neglected, and unwanted animals in the Huntington Beach area. Not only does the shelter provide a home for the animals in its care, but it also helps rehabilitate pets in need, nurses sick pets, and feeds the hungry animals. In addition to all of this, the shelter also tries to find homes for all of the animals it houses.
Save Our Strays of Huntington is a non-profit animal care center in Huntington Beach that is much less known than the Orange County Humane Society. While many people seem to believe that there is only one animal shelter in the area, Save Our Strays of Huntington Beach also cares for the homeless animals in the community. For the last 16 years, the organization has worked hard to save the lives of hundreds of animals. As a non-profit, all funds for the shelter are raised via donations, fundraisers, and adoption fees from the shelter.
If you live in the area and are thinking about bringing a new furry friend into your household, consider visiting one of these two shelters.
