Maria was amazing with my very energetic dogs! She made me feel completely comfortable leaving them with her for a couple of days. They had plenty of playtime and running around, and she sent lots of pictures and check-ins throughout the day. They came back home happy and well cared for!

I can't say enough about Maria. She was absolutely amazing. It's so obvious that she's a big time dog lover and the fact that she spent over 10 years as a volunteer at The Humane Society doesn't hurt either. She's also just a nice, sweet, welcoming person as well. You can tell that she really cares about the dogs and wants you to be totally comfortable knowing that your baby is in good hands. This was the first time that I was leaving Ace in the care of someone we didn't know. I felt totally comfortable and at ease knowing that Ace was going to be taken care of and loved. Very easy and flexible to communicate with. She sent me plenty of pictures as well. Would highly recommend!!!

Maria was wonderful to our Maggie. Maggie is an older bulldog and Maria knew all of her needs. Maria has a lovely welcoming home and 3 dogs of her own. Her dogs were just as friendly and kind to our old Maggie. I would certainly recommend Maria to any family that is looking for a temporary home for their dog.

Sadie loved her time with Maria and I know she misses the furry friends she made there. We received many pictures of her time there. Thanks, Maria.
