Your Pet's Home Away from Home
Thank you for visiting my profile. My name is Maricel. As far as I could remember I have been surrounded with pets (mostly dogs) ever since I was little. I had my first puppy when I was still in the Philippines during my elementary years and the last dog I had was with our family for a good 16+ years before she passed away. She was our beloved fur baby and after her passing, we found it hard to replace her. It was a good thing that all of our extended family have dogs ranging from small (Chihuahua & Yorkie), Medium (Corgi & Shih Tzu) to large breeds (Golden Retriever & Husky), so we took care of them whenever it was needed. But eventually, we wanted more so we decided to try fostering. We fostered dogs and puppies for awhile and that gave us more experience and insights in dealing with all types of dogs and their behaviors. Our last foster dog was with us for a few months and it was heartbreaking when he was adopted. And eventually in mid 2024 - I discovered Rover. Most of the clients I have are new to Rover and have never left their fur babies with anyone except with the people they know. I know how difficult it can be to leave your precious pets with a stranger, hence I always recommend a meet and greet before confirming a booking. If you think I could be a best fit, message me. Our family is so used to having fur babies around us and we enjoy taking care of any breed: big or small; just a puppy or already a senior; neutered, spayed or not. We would treat them like our own, even if it is just temporary. We love what we do and we are very good at it. Please take a moment to read my reviews and looking forward to connecting with you!

Thank you Maricel, my golden boys were great when I got home. So glad Percy found your daughter to be his person! Thank you for taking such good care of Percy and Moose, it made my vacation so much more relaxing knowing they were in good hands Rose
First time using Rover to board our 1 year old puppy Kiba and we are so glad we found Maricel to dog sit. She was easy to reach and provided adequate updates on Kiba. We felt at ease while on vacation that our dog was well taken cared of. Will definitely reaching out to Maricel for future dog boarding needs! Highly recommend her
When I picked up my dog she seemed very comfortable and relaxed in her environment. Didn’t seem distressed at all. I think she had a good time with Mericel and her family. Mericel kept me informed and sent pictures and updates. Even let me know if bowel movement changes when I picked her up. Will definitely use her again
Maricel was a pleasure to deal with. She took care of our senior dog Khloe without any issues. Sent us updates and photos as well. Will definitely use her services again. Highly recommend her 👌
I could give 6 stars if i could. Maricel took care of our furr baby Scooby while we were gone for a week and trust me I felt Scooby was safe and well taken care of and we were able to enjoy our trip while Scooby enjoyed his little staycation with her. Thank you Maricel for taking such good care of Scooby. He will definitely come back in future.
They were great! Walked me puppy, provided me with updates. Highly recommend

I am pretty much available for boarding any day of the week. I have done both short term (less than a week) and long term boarding (over a month). Last minute bookings can also be accommodated.
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I have a big, fully fenced backyard where pets can be free to run and play as much as they like. Pets are allowed anywhere in the house - no restrictions unless you tell me otherwise. They are welcome to sleep with us in any of our rooms but if they feel safer in a crate, I can provide a medium size crate or feel free to bring what they normally would use for sleeping.
A typical day
Our big fenced backyard allows us to play fetch anytime of the day. We can also bring your fur babies to the off leash park if that is something we can do. You can tell me what your fur baby enjoys doing and we would do our best to accommodate.
