We now live in a house with a backyard. They can still sit on the couch and bed, and we always have a crate available if needed. They are also free to explore the backyard or just relax inside. It's a very welcoming home.

Pet care experience
We’re a family of 5 who absolutely love animals! Along with me and my wife, our nephew and niece, and our sister also help care for your precious furbabies, giving them lots of attention, playtime, and love while they stay with us. I truly enjoy spoiling pets and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for. My friends often describe me as reliable, responsible, and someone they can fully trust with their pets. My wife and I both permanently work from home, so your pets will rarely be left alone and will always have company throughout the day. Our schedules are flexible, which allows us to offer weekday daycare and consistent care. We usually take our dog on walks in the morning and afternoon, and we love including other furry friends in our routine. We currently live in a welcoming home with a secure backyard where pets can safely explore, play, or simply relax. Inside the house, pets are treated like family — they’re welcome on the couch and bed, and we also have a crate available if needed for comfort or training. Whether they enjoy being active or lounging indoors, we make sure every pet feels right at home with us.
Reviews

Thank you for always taking good care of Maggie. She came home and went straight to sleep, I know she had a wonderful time!

My dog has been under the weather and needed some extra care, and Meirilu truly came through for us! ❤️ As a dog mom, I rarely trust anyone to look after my pup, so leaving him with someone else always makes me anxious. But from the moment I met Meirilu, I felt completely at ease. She kept me updated with photos throughout the day, which gave me so much peace of mind. Jimbo looked like he had the best time and it was clear he was well cared for and loved. Thank you so much, Meirilu! I’m so grateful and will definitely trust you with Jimbo again. 🐶💕

We had to board our beloved Coco for the very first time, and naturally we were very nervous about leaving her with anyone. From the moment we met Merilu, she made us feel comfortable and reassured that Coco would be in good hands. Merilu and her family took exceptional care of Coco and truly treated her like one of their own. They happily accommodated all of our requests, including not using a cage and allowing Coco to sleep on the bed, which meant a lot to us since Coco has never been crated. Throughout Coco’s stay, we received regular updates with photos and videos every day, along with quick responses whenever we had questions. Seeing Coco happy, playful, and comfortable gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. When we picked Coco up, she looked healthy, relaxed, and genuinely happy, which says everything about the love and care she received. It’s clear that Merilu has a true passion for animals and provides a safe, loving home rather than just a boarding service. We are incredibly grateful for the wonderful care Coco received and wouldn’t hesitate to trust Merilu again. If you’re looking for someone who will care for your pet with love, patience, and genuine affection, I highly recommend Merilu. Thank you for making Coco’s first boarding experience such a positive and stress-free one for both Coco and our family!


Marilu and family consistently takes good care of our two dogs, they keep them busy with lots of fun activities and cuddles! You will never worry as you are updated frequently. There's peace of mind whenever we leave our dogs with them. Glad we found this family who genuinely treats our dogs as theirs!
