Doggy Day Care • Jun 11, 2026

Maria was absolutely wonderful! She was super responsive, easy to work with, and sent tons of great photo and video updates throughout the day. She truly loved my baby girl like her own. I couldn't have asked for a better experience

Maria watched my two geriatric dogs while I attended a wedding, and I couldn't have been more grateful for her care. Our regular sitter was unavailable, and I was understandably hesitant to leave my girls because of their health issues…especially my Cavalier King Charles Spaniel, who is in heart failure and requires extra attention. Maria was incredibly reassuring, knowledgeable, and willing to take on the additional care they needed. Throughout my trip, I felt much less stressed knowing they were in such capable hands. When they returned home, both of my girls were happy, comfortable, and clearly well cared for. I truly appreciate everything Maria did to make this experience a positive one, and I would not hesitate to trust her with my dogs again. Highly recommend!

Maria and Fedor were absolutely great with Ollie while we were out of town. He can be a bit particular, but he settled in quickly and seemed right at home. They were easy to communicate with and kept us updated with photos and videos, which we really appreciated. This is the second time they've watched him, and we'll definitely keep booking with them because because they take such great care of him. Gracias, Maria and Fedor!

Maria and her husband were simply… the best! I travel a lot for work and have had many sitters over the years and I have to say, this was probably the best stay kai has had. Kai got all the attention, love, care and play time a dog can ask for. We left specific instructions for Kai a they were followed to a tee! At the meet and greet, we could just tell how caring Maria and her husband would be, sure enough Kai was cared for as if he was their own dog. Maria and her husband were quick to respond, gave constant updates and sent plenty of videos and photos! Found my go to sitter and highly recommend !!

Safety, trust & environment

When it comes to caring for pets, I offer services at my place. Your furry friend will be welcomed into a warm and comfortable environment, where they'll receive personalized attention, playtime, and all the special attention that they deserve. My goal is to create a cozy home-away-from-home experience that ensures your pet's happiness and your peace of mind.

A typical day

When it comes to the dogs I have the pleasure of watching, the possibilities for fun activities are endless! I make sure their tails are wagging with joy. We will explore parks near the house, play at other dog-friendly locations, and sometimes we might even venture onto hiking trails for a true adventure. We'll stroll around the neighborhood, pausing to sniff every intriguing scent along the way. But it's not just about the places. The bond I establish with these dogs is what genuinely makes these activities special. Your furry friend will be in great hands and treated like a cherished member of the family throughout their stay.
