We came home to very happy pups after Maria watched them! She made sure they were well taken care of and sent plenty of pictures while we were away. Not only were the dogs cared for, she took good care of the house as well. She really put our mind at ease and we will be calling her again!

As always, Maria does a wonderful job. Kept my place clean and communicated well. Asked questions when needed.

Maria was amazing with our two dogs!! She was able to stay in our home which was very helpful to keep our pups in their normal environment. Maria gave us updates throughout each day and I could tell they were having so much fun! Will definitely book again.

Maria did a wonderful job taking care of my special needs golden retriever! She was attentive, friendly, and very communicative. I highly recommend you booking her!! She sent tons of photos and asked questions when needed. Kept my place clean and made the bed when she was done for the week. I will definitely be booking with her again in the future!

Please let me know if your dog has any special needs! I have experience taking care of dogs who have physical restrictions, special needs and certain dietary restrictions, etc.

A typical day

I think it’s super important to stimulate your dogs mental and physical health! That includes lots of games, and going on walks and getting in all the smells. And of course getting lots of love and attention if you’re dog isn’t big on activity!
