Cuddle, Play, and Care: Your Dog's

I watch my kids dogs for 10 years when they are traveling on vacation ! They have à chihuahua (13yrs) a Visla (4yrs) and a Catahoula leopard (9yrs), I also have friends dogs stay overnight a lot so decide to extend my love to your dog too. I provide individual care tailored to your dog's needs, ensuring they feel loved and secure. Your dog will be in a safe, dog-friendly space, with plenty of room to play and relax. I can accommodate to your schedule, whether it’s a one-time sitting or regular care. My love for dogs drives me to provide the best care possible, treating each pet like my own.

Mara & Marco kept my dog for several nights and did a great job! They sent photos & updates and communicated promptly when I texted them. I will definitely call them again whenever I go out of town!

Thank you, Marco and Mara, for always loving and caring for my princess as if she were your own. I never feel any concern when I leave my senior girl with you, which lets me enjoy my vacations and focus on work completely stress-free.

Mara was amazing at drop off. Asking great questions to make sure our boy was well taken care of. Marco was great at sending pictures throughout the week he was there. Upon pick up Marco assisted in getting all of his things into my car. I highly recommend them and will not hesitate having our boy stay with them again. Thank you both for taking such great care and loving our boy.

Schedule

I am retired but can’t stay still! I would love to spend my days playing with the best furry friends there is. My wife is a baby sitter out of the house. But when she is here she loves dogs just as much

Safety, trust & environment

I have a fenced yard with a huge area to run and play! When we are inside they more than welcome to cuddle on the furniture too.

A typical day

We play a lot of catch outside. Some dogs enjoy to refresh on our little swimming pool. If it's too hot we will take a little nap inside and we have lots of toys for them to stay entertained.
