A Loving Home Away from Home!
Pet care experience
Are you looking for a warm, nurturing and fun environment for your dog who will be looked after like a member of the family? You've found it! My husband, Mike, our small terrier, Stella, and I are very active and outdoorsy people who love being around dogs. We have lots of experience with very active breeds like German Shepherds and Border collies as well as couch potatoes! I worked at a dog day care for several years and have taken dog grooming courses where I learned a bit about doggie first aid. Stella is very friendly dog with a very relaxed demeanor who gets along with every dog she comes across. We live in a welcoming, pet safe house with a completely fenced in backyard. We both work from home often so between us, there's always someone home. We allow dogs on our furniture but please let us know if that's not something you want for your dog and we are happy to accommodate.
Reviews
Diana and Michael are amazing and Knox loved his time with them and honestly probably didn’t want to come back home. I received multiple updates throughout his stay and Diana was always quick to respond. We’ve already booked two more stays with them!
Diana, Michael and their family went above and beyond to make sure our dog, Lou, and we were as stress- and worry-free as possible during Lou's 11 day boarding. Diana is uber responsive and thoughtful. Lou enjoyed walks, runs with Michael, playdates and the constant companionship of the family. Their home is suited for a large dog (ours is 80 lbs) and the yard out back is a bonus. The neighborhood is also lovely, walkable and close to parks and a dog run. We wouldn't hesitate having Lou stay with the family again.
Diana was so welcoming and accommodating to Teddy. They have a lovely house with a big back yard that he loved. She was also flexible with seeing whether Teddy would get along with other dogs she was boarding. The pictures she sent me that day made me feel like Teddy was in such good hands. He loved it there.
Diana was very punctual and communicative. She took Pepper on some great walks! We would definitely work with her again!

Skills
Safety, trust & environment
Our home has a very spacious and fully fenced in backyard, and we have a dog of our own who will be happy to keep yours company. We feed Stella breakfast and dinner on a schedule as opposed to letting her graze all day but we are happy to accommodate if your dog has different requirements. We live walking distance to a wonderful park in downtown San Mateo and do morning and evening walks.
Home
Information Diana & Michael G. would like to know about your pet
Please let us know if your dog has any special needs or accommodations. We should know about ahead of time. We have a two-story house, but if they have trouble with stairs, we can make sure that the stairs are gated for their safety.
A typical day
We live very close to a wonderful park in downtown San Mateo. There is also a dog park within that park that we like to visit so she can play and socialize with other pups. We take long walks around the neighborhood and usually wind up at the park for a while and then walk home. We also love going to the beach and taking hikes with the dogs.
