Pet care experience

Don’t worry. Dog Happy! ;)

I have my own fur babies and have taken care of my family and friends as well. So taking care of yours and providing the best possible experience for your fur baby is a top priority of mine. I guarantee your fur baby will have an amazing experience! I am able to do any nights for boarding. As I may be out and about during the weekends I do come back every 2 to 4 hours for potty breaks and meals. During the week my husband works from home Tuesdays and Thursdays so there’s always someone home. Your fur babies will have a PAWstive experience in my care!

Maria and her husband were awesome. I felt my puppy was in a safe and happy place and was truly cared for. The other dogs who were boarding looked happy as well. Maria communicated well, kept me updated, shared a photo and video. I would book with her again.

Pets

A typical day

I love playing tug of war and fetch with dogs and taking long walks. If there's a dog park nearby, I'd love to walk them there and run around. If your pet likes to be scratched, you better believe I'll give them the petting of a lifetime! Sometimes, all a pet wants is a nice cuddle session, complete with ear scratches, so after I tire them out I will not hesitate to give them some cuddles before I leave.

Please let me know if your pet has any medical needs or illnesses so I can better care for them. Information on how they do around other people and animals is also helpful, as well as if they like to be touched or picked up. I want your pet to feel safe and happy the entire time I am with them!
