Qualifications
Ratings and reviews
Maria and Darren were absolutely wonderful with our dogs! It was clear from the beginning that they genuinely care about the dogs they look after. Our dogs really loved them and seemed so happy and comfortable in their care. After a two-week stay, our dogs came home happy, healthy, and well cared for, which gave us so much peace of mind. Maria and Darren kept us reassured throughout their stay, and we felt completely comfortable knowing our dogs were in such loving hands. We would happily book with Maria and Darren again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for caring, trustworthy, and loving dog sitters!
This is the first time using this app! And Maria and Darren went above and beyond, they accommodated to our crazy schedule and we got a happy puppy. We will definitely booked them again next time we are back
Maria & Darren were fantastic. They had prompt communication and Millie really enjoyed her stay! They even were able to accommodate a flight delay. Highly recommend!
Maria and Darren are always great dog watchers and my english bulldog Franny loves staying with them! I’d recommend them to anyone that wants their pet to have a fun, happy, and healthy stay 😊
Maria and Darren have now watched my english bulldog Franny twice and they’re great with her! Franny also really enjoys her time with them and they take great care of her as well. My dog is reactive with other dogs, so I’m quite careful when choosing a sitter, but Maria and Darren have been great. I would recommend them to all pet owners 🙂
Maria and Darren took Carr of our dog on short notice and everting was great. Communication was easy and hope they can look after him again.

Safety, trust & environment
Your pet’s comfort and safety always come first. We create a calm, loving environment where they can feel at ease. Whether in our home or yours, we stick to their routine, pay attention to their needs, and make sure they’re happy, comfortable, and well cared for.
A typical day
A typical day includes plenty of walks, play, and mental stimulation. We’ll explore the neighborhood, visit a nearby park, enjoy fun games, and also have downtime for cuddles and rest so your pet feels balanced and happy. If they’re up for it, we can also offer a gentle Reiki or sound healing session to help them feel extra calm and relaxed.
