Maria's Happy Tails boarding

I'm a long time volunteer with Friends of the Homeless Animals and I have two rescue dogs of my own. We are a dog loving family and have a very pet friendly home, My dogs have always been very welcoming and have been great with the dozens of foster dogs we've had in and out of our house over the last decade. We decided to try boarding in our home-- we know how difficult it is to go away and worry about your pet. We have a lot of experience with all kinds of dogs—our goal is always to give the dogs space and time to relax and feel comfortable. I've done everything from giving insulin shots to oral vaccines. I've had dogs with separation anxiety, dementia, dog aggression--you name an issue, I've had a foster dog with it!, My 26 year old daughter is often with us and is wonderful with dogs and helps out quite a bit. She stands in for me if I have to be away.

Maria was super responsive and I was so relieved knowing my dog was in good hands with her and her cute dogs. It was like a mini-staycation for my dog !! Maria kept me updated at all times and the communication was great. I would always happily book with Maria again. Thank you.

Our pup had a great time staying with Maria and her family. Maria was very communicative and helpful with our last minute holiday booking!

Doggy Day Care • Jul 16, 2023

Maria wasn’t available to dog sit but her daughter Tatiana was, and we couldn’t have been happier! Tatiana was lovely with our dog, and the house has a fenced in backyard so our dog could spend a lot of time outdoors. We’re not in the Hamptons that often, but we wouldn’t hesitate to work with Tatiana again.
