Our dog, Marlo, had a great time staying with Matina and her family. She provided updates and pictures while we were away and I'm sure Marlo will definitely be wanting to stay with her again!

Milo loved his overnight with Matina. He was so happy when I picked him up and seemed really comfortable with Matinas family and their dog!

Since it had been almost a year since the last time my dogs stayed at a sitter’s house, they did not adjust readily to the new surroundings at Matina’s house. Matina went above and beyond to ensure they settled down for the night. She also kept me well-informed with updates and photos. We really appreciated her efforts, and our dogs had a great time playing with her pup! I highly recommend Matina.

Information Matina R. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know ahead of time if there are any special needs (senior dog, puppy, medications, anxiety) and I'm happy to accomodate. We'll do whatever it takes to make your dog feel content and at home.

A typical day

We'll spend lots of time in the yard and going for walks, or to the local dog park. There will also be plenty of cuddles. Dogs are allowed on the couch and bed (if not sleeping in a crate). I do have an 8-pound toy poddle/bishon mix who gets along with other dogs.

These prices are for one dog. A booking fee of 11% and taxes will apply.
