Doggy Day Care • Aug 02, 2026

Vera did an amazing job with Koda today. It was her first time, and she was patient, calm, and attentive to Koda’s needs. Koda quickly felt safe and comfortable with her. Vera’s natural connection with dogs was evident, and by the end of the day, Koda didn’t want to leave. I’d definitely trust Vera again and book her in the future.

Our vizsla Vega was super happy to meet and spend a day with Tater ! She was in great mood upon return and to me that’s the best indicator of the day care provided. Would definitely recommend Vera and Tater !

My dog felt comfortable with Vera right away and settled in like she was at home. Vera sends lots of pictures and takes Phoebe on plenty of hikes, and her lovely dog Tater makes the stays even more fun! Every time Phoebe stays with Vera, she comes home happy and relaxed. I always feel completely at ease knowing she’s in such capable and caring hands — I couldn’t recommend Vera more!

Vera was very nice and professional, I was not nervous about leaving our dog at all. Her communication was great and she sent photos during the day. Edie had a great time and Veras dog is a sweetheart. I would highly recommend Vera.

Doggy Day Care • Aug 19, 2025

Vera immediately made me feel comfortable, as it was the first time that we had to let Luna alone with someone else… and she had a great time! She loved to have another dog to play with and the garden was also great. And Vera herself is really nice, had great tips and sent me some pictures during the day. I would definitely recommend her and would not hesitate one second to leave Luna with her again! Thanks a lot for having her

Safety, trust & environment

Safety and trust are top priorities when caring for pets in our home. We provide a secure, welcoming environment with a fully fenced garden for safe outdoor play, and always supervise interactions between dogs to ensure everyone is comfortable and happy. Inside, pets have access to clean, cozy spaces to relax, and each dog’s routine will be followed closely—whether it’s feeding times or walks. Our own friendly corgi helps to create a social and positive atmosphere, and the time is taken to get to know each dog’s personality and needs. Pet parents will be kept updated with messages and photos, so you can feel confident your dog is in caring, capable hands. Whether it’s daycare or an overnight stay, each dog will be treated like family.

Pets

A typical day

We start the day with a morning potty break and a bit of playtime in our garden. Depending on your dog’s routine, we’ll enjoy neighborhood walks, backyard fetch, or just some relaxed sniffing and exploring in the nearby dog parks or Dolder forest. Throughout the day, I provide plenty of affection, stimulation, and downtime—whether your dog loves to play or just relax on the sofa. I always tailor activities to match each dog’s personality, age, and energy level. I also maintain feeding and medication schedules as provided, and you’re always kept in the loop with photos and updates.
