Pet care experience

Calm, loving coastal dog care

What sets me apart is the calm, nurturing environment I create for every dog. I truly love offering a peaceful space where each dog can settle in and feel at home. I know how important it is for owners to feel their dog is safe and understood, and my seaside home provides a soothing atmosphere that helps dogs relax naturally. With gentle routines and thoughtful one‑to‑one care, your dog feels supported and completely at ease.

We couldn't have asked for a better pet sitter than Maria for Graham! From start to finish, she was communicative, caring, and clearly loves dogs. She kept us updated throughout with regular photos and videos, so we always knew Graham was happy, relaxed, and well looked after. It gave us such peace of mind. We'd book Maria again in a heartbeat and wouldn't hesitate to recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, attentive sitter.

I cannot recommend Maria highly enough. My dog is a nervous rescue, so I was initially anxious about leaving her with anyone. Maria was exceptional — she sent regular updates with photos and videos, along with detailed notes about how Nelly was settling in throughout her stay. I felt completely reassured and knew Nelly was in safe, caring hands. Maria and her husband provide a calm, welcoming environment for animals, and we will definitely be using them again.

Maria looked after our dog, Bronson, from 11/06/2026 to 28/06/2026, and we couldn't have been happier with the care she provided. From the very beginning, Maria's communication was exceptional. She sent regular, detailed updates throughout Bronson's stay, along with lots of photos, which gave us complete peace of mind and allowed us to see how happy and settled he was. Bronson settled in incredibly quickly and was clearly made to feel like part of the family. It was obvious that Maria genuinely cared for him and took the time to understand his needs. As Bronson is currently recovering from an ongoing injury, Maria was fantastic at supporting him with short, slow walks and ensuring he wasn't overdoing it, while still getting the exercise and attention he needed. It was wonderful to know that he was being cared for in such a loving and attentive environment. We returned to a happy, relaxed dog, which says everything about the quality of care he received. We would highly recommend Maria to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring, and professional dog sitter, and we will absolutely be using her services again in the future. Thank you, Maria, for taking such amazing care of Bronson! 🐾❤️

Maria was really friendly and approachable. Calypso was taken great care of during his stay and was very happy even though he was way from home. She always kept us updated and was fast to respond to messages. She also sent cute photos during his stay so we can see how he is doing.

Schedule

Pet care fits smoothly into my routine. Mornings typically begin with a peaceful seaside walk, and the rest of the day follows a calm, steady rhythm. Evenings and weekends remain unhurried, with dedicated time for relaxed walks, play and quiet companionship. This consistent structure helps dogs settle comfortably and enjoy a reassuring, dependable presence throughout their stay.

Safety, trust & environment

Dogs in my care enjoy a calm, structured home environment with close supervision and gentle routines. The seaside setting adds a naturally relaxing atmosphere that helps them feel secure.

A typical day

I love keeping dogs engaged both physically and mentally. We explore my calm coastal area, enjoy relaxed walks, play gentle enrichment games and spend plenty of time unwinding in a peaceful, reassuring environment.
