Loving Care, So You Can Worry Less

Leaving your dog behind can be hard—whether it’s for a weekend getaway or a busy workday. You want someone who’ll treat them with the same love and attention you do. You need more than just a dog watcher; you need someone who gets it. Someone who will keep your dog happy, safe, and loved until you’re back. As a dog mom to two golden retrievers (9 and 5), I’ve had plenty of experience with dogs of all energy levels, temperaments, and needs. I’m comfortable managing medications, preventing allergy triggers, and handling allergic reactions if they arise. Our home has a large front and backyard, perfect for playtime, exercise, and fresh air. Whether your pup needs long walks, belly rubs, or someone to sit quietly and keep them company, I’ll care for them as if they were my own. You’ll get regular updates, photos, and all the reassurance you need—so you can relax, knowing your dog is in good hands. At the end of the day, it’s not just about keeping your dog fed and exercised—it’s about making sure they feel at home, even when you’re not there. Because your dog deserves the best. And so do you.

Maria and Ben are the best! They took such great care of my girl and welcomed her as their own. Many photo updates and check-ins as well. Very thankful for their love and care!

Our dog, Lance had a great time! He loved playing with the pups and Maria and Ben sent us a lot of pup-dates along the way!

My pup had the best time with Maria and Ben! I got so many photos and updates as the day went on and Maia got so much love, attention, and playtime! She came home like a kid after Disneyland.

Doggy Day Care • Apr 20, 2026

We had the best experience with this Maria and Ben watching our pup, Baja! From the start, they made us feel completely at ease by sending frequent updates, including tons of videos and pictures, which meant so much while we were away. It was clear Baja was not only well cared for, but truly loved. They were incredibly attentive, thoughtful, and treated him like their own. You can tell they genuinely care about the dogs they watch. We’re so grateful to have found them and would absolutely trust them again in a heartbeat. Highly recommend!

We are so grateful to Maria and Ben for looking after our Bernedoodle while we were away! They are super communicative and we received lots of photos and videos which was so great while we were missing our girl.

If caring for pets in our home, you can expect a minimum of 3 walks a day and lots of outdoor time in our front and backyard patio. We’ll keep a close eye on any pups to ensure full safety. If caring for pups in your home, you can expect me to treat your home like my own and respect it fully while also sticking to your pups schedule you would keep on a regular basis. I’d love to work with you to make sure your pups needs are fully met!

A typical day

We love to stay active and take our pups for long hikes and walks. We’d do the same with your pup as long as they don’t have any ailments that keep them from doing these things, and we of course would adjust and make sure we do low impact exercises.
