About Durva M.

Safety, trust & environment
I provide pet care exclusively at my home, which is a cozy and safe space designed with your pet’s comfort in mind. My own friendly Golden Retriever, Nami, loves making new friends and will be a great companion for your dog. I have a secure playpen that can be used to ensure puppies or dogs have a safe space when needed, and I also offer a small, fenced backyard where the dogs can lounge and enjoy fresh air during the day. In addition to providing lots of love and attention, I enjoy preparing healthy fruity treats that dogs love. Your furry friend will be treated like family here—safe, entertained, and cared for in a warm and nurturing environment.

Information Durva M. would like to know about your pet
It’s helpful to know their daily routines, favorite activities, and any quirks that make them unique. Information about their energy level, social behavior (with other pets or people), and any specific commands they respond to is always valuable. I also need to be aware of any health conditions, allergies, or medications your pet may have, as well as dietary preferences or restrictions. If your pet has any anxieties—such as being fearful of certain noises, strangers, or separation—I want to know how I can help make them comfortable. The more details I have, the better I can create a stress-free and enjoyable experience for your furry family member.
A typical day
Living next to John McLaren Park gives me a wonderful opportunity to offer pets in my care an exciting and enriching experience. A typical day starts with a refreshing morning walk through the park, where pets can explore the sights, sounds, and smells of nature. For more active pets, we can enjoy an extended hike along the park trails, providing plenty of exercise and mental stimulation. Throughout the day, I ensure pets have structured playtime that suits their energy levels—whether it's fetch, tug-of-war, or gentle games for older dogs. If the weather's nice, we might head back to John McLaren Park in the afternoon for another stroll or a playful romp in the grassy areas. For pets that love a bit of relaxation, cozy cuddle time and lots of belly rubs are always on the agenda, ensuring they feel safe and loved. I also include plenty of quiet time, with lots of affectionate bonding to keep pets feeling comfortable. Each day is filled with care and attention, making sure your furry friend stays happy, relaxed, and well-exercised.

Pet care experience
As a devoted dog mom and a passionate pet lover, I understand just how important it is for pets to feel safe, comfortable, and loved—especially when you're away. I raised a Shih Tzu for 11 wonderful years, which taught me the importance of patience, consistency, and providing comfort throughout a dog's life stages. I now am raising my Golden Retriever puppy, Nami, and this experience has given me first-hand skills in caring for dogs with high energy and taught me the patience and attention that young pups require.
Reviews
Durva was prompt and kind when I had to book a dog sitter last minute! Velma played with her dogs, napped, and enjoyed the back garden. Thank you so much!
Valerie has the best time with Durva and her family. She doesn’t want to come home! The other dogs are so sweet and they all get along great.
Great stay. Durva sent photos of our pup’s stay and was flexible when our schedule changed. Highly recommend
Our senior dog Pi had a wonderful stay with Durva! Durva was friendly, responsive, and super easy to schedule with, exactly what you want when leaving your pup in someone else's care. Pi did well with Durva's sweet and energetic puppies, and it was clear he had a great time. We loved receiving photo updates throughout his stay and appreciated the feedback of how his last walk went when we came to pick him up. Durva's neighborhood is quiet and perfect for walks. We couldn't have asked for a better experience and will definitely be booking again!
