Pet care experience

Your Pet's Home Away from Home!

Having experienced the challenge of entrusting furry loved ones to a stranger myself, I made the deliberate choice to dedicate my off-time to providing peace of mind for others. Working on a 14-day rotation, I am deeply motivated to ensure that during my days off, your pets receive the utmost care and attention they deserve. As a 31-year-old woman and proud mom of a 3-year-old border collie mix puppy, whom I trained myself, my love for animals runs deep. Growing up with pets ingrained in me a passion for their well-being. Having personally felt the frustration of finding reliable pet care while away, I'm determined to offer others the peace of mind they deserve during vacations, business trips, or whenever they can't bring their furry companions along.

Boarding • Apr 22, 2025

Maria was very kind and treated my dogs with respect. Took them out to the park to get much needed energy out. Would recommend her.

I am grateful to Maria for looking after my dog, Hazel. She runs straight inside when we arrive at Maria’s house and comes home tired!

A typical day

I really love to go outside with dogs, give them long walks or play with them in a secure off leash park where they can test a little of freedom. At home I have some sniffing pads, dog puzzles and a lot of balls.

For safety purposes it is really important that you let me know about any special (bad) behavior your dog has, if that apply to you. And I would like to know its personality as well, what he/she likes, what he/she doesn't like and any detail you consider is important to keep your dog as comfortable as possible.
