Maria & Jake can care for
Availability
While not available during weekdays, due to our work schedules, we would be happy to provide evening walks on weekdays, and overnight care and walking services on weekends, holidays, and school break time. We coordinate our shifts so that dogs are never left alone for long periods. This makes us a great fit for pets who prefer extra companionship or need more frequent potty breaks and attention.

Skills
Safety, trust & environment
As lifelong dog owners and medical professionals, we bring both compassion and reliability to pet care. We know how important trust and communication are — we’ll send regular updates, photos, and messages so you can relax knowing your pet is in caring hands. Your dog’s safety, comfort, and happiness are always our top priorities. We will be able to provide care directly in your home where your pet is most familiar and comfortable. We are also home owners ourselves and will be very respectful of your home and space.
Information Maria & Jake S. would like to know about your pet
Prior to the scheduled booking, we will be in touch to schedule a meet and greet which will allow us to go over pertinent information such as any specific needs for your pets whether it be medications, diet, certain things in the neighborhood to be aware of. We look forward to caring for your furry loved one!
A typical day
We are happy to do all the fun activities your pup enjoys whether it be going for a nice long walk around the neighborhood, playing a game of fetch or tug of war at home. We will definitely spend the evenings cuddled up together.

Pet care experience
Hi there! We’re Jake and Maria, a husband-and-wife team of lifelong dog owners and registered nurses. We’ve both spent our entire lives around dogs of all breeds and personalities — from energetic puppies to mellow seniors. As nurses, we’re detail-oriented, reliable, and calm under pressure — qualities that carry over perfectly into pet care. Whether your dog needs a walking buddy, or just some extra love and attention while you’re away, we’ll treat them like one of our own. We currently are the pet parents to two very active and sweet rescue pups, Roy and Annabelle. We also have experience with caring for dogs with medical needs and senior care as our first dog together, Shawn, crossed over the rainbow bridge in the fall of 2024 after 11 years with us. Please note our overnight rate includes walks.

I have known Maria and Jake for years. Both Maria and Jake have been life long dog owners and adore their rescue dogs (and really any dog they meet)! They are also very organized and do a great job of prioritizing their dogs’ needs with their other responsibilities. Maria also volunteered in high school at the Wilton Humane Society. They are comfortable with dogs with various needs and age ranges. Your pet will be in the best of hands!
