Where Paws Feel Right at Home

Hi! I’m a lifelong dog lover with over 20 years of hands-on experience caring for my own furry 9companions. Since I was 20, dogs have been a constant and joyful part of my life—I’ve raised them from puppies, managed their health as seniors, and given them all the love, attention, and care they deserve every day. I treat every dog as if they were my own. I'm patient, reliable, and very detail-oriented when it comes to feeding, walking, and making sure your pup feels safe and happy. I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust, and I take that responsibility seriously.

Marial, Bram and Pepe took great care of our Charlie! They sent lots of photos, and took him on fun adventures. Our kids loved seeing what Charlie was up to each day. I’ve never used a service like this and would definitely book a stay with them again. They were caring, warm and flexible and went well above what I would have expected. I’d give 6 stars if I could!

Mariel & Bram once again went above and beyond taking care of Winnie! They took him out on his first kayaking adventure, and sent us so many adorable photos! They welcome all the dogs into their family as their own.

Mariel was so welcoming and reassuring. Fantastic communication. They sent frequent pictures and updates through the stay. I could tell my little Lady was very well cared for. I would definitely have Lady stay with them again!

I always feel so comfortable and thankful when Mariel and Bram can watch goji. They treat him like their own and goji always is so happy to see them.

Mariel was so wonderful with Isla! She sent me lots of updates and photos throughout the day. Communication was easy and it was such a relief knowing that Isla was being well looked after while I was out. I would highly recommend her!!

We had such a great experience with Mariel and Bram looking after Benji. They really went above and beyond and treated him like one of their own. We got loads of updates with photos and videos throughout the day, which was so reassuring to see him having such a great time. He went on plenty of walks and even got taken out to patios, which he loved. It was clear he was really well cared for and happy the whole time. We’d happily recommend Mariel and Bram to anyone and would definitely use them again!

Safety, trust & environment

Safety and trust are my top priorities when caring for pets. I treat every dog like they’re my own, and I create a calm, comfortable environment where they feel safe, loved, and understood. I make sure my home is dog-friendly and free of hazards. I keep a consistent routine for feeding, walking, and playtime to help dogs feel secure, and I follow any instructions you provide down to the smallest detail—medications, dietary needs, preferred walking routes, and more. Most importantly, I understand how much trust it takes to leave your pet with someone new—and I’m here to make that experience feel as easy and worry-free as possible.

Pets

A typical day

A typical day with your dog under our care will be full of love, movement, and cuddles! We start our mornings with a short walk around the neighborhood—Pepe loves sniffing around and saying hi to other pups. After breakfast, there’s plenty of cuddle time while I work or relax at home. In the afternoons, we go for a longer walk in the river walk or Kensington or head to the fenced dog park for some playtime. Evenings are for winding down with more snuggles, maybe a treat or two, and lots of love.
