“Wow! Just picked up my pup and I couldn’t be happier! This was my first time leaving my dog with a pet sitter, and I would 100% leave my baby with Maria again! While being out of the country for a week and a half and with a 6 hour time difference, Maria was still able to make me feel at ease that Levi was in great hands. Maria shared so many photos and videos throughout the day, making me feel a lot better. Maria, her husband, and their adorable pup Toby made Levi feel at home and like he was a part of their family. He was definitely pampered and I think he felt like he was on a vacation of his own. Levi and Toby became fast friends! He was so gentle yet playful with my little 7 pound pup, I am sad separating them! So many walks and trips to the dog park, it rained for a few days and they still made sure to keep active and entertained inside as well. He was so comfortable with this entire family and I could not recommend them enough. I would definitely let my pet stay with them again, and I think he would be over the moon to go back! If you’re considering booking with Maria, do it!!!”
