“Arlin took such great care of my dog Louie. She was communicative and sent pictures daily. I felt such ease and peace knowing Louie was being taken care of in a loving environment. My dog can easily get anxious and homesick but Arlin gave him lots of attention and care. I will definitely be using Arlin again during our next vacation.”


About: I’ve been around animals my whole life, and caring for them has always brought me joy. I’ve taken care of dogs and cats for friends, neighbors, and family, helping with walks, feeding, playtime, and giving them the love they need while their humans are away. I’m calm, patient, and attentive and I’ll treat your pet like they’re my own. Whether it’s belly rubs, fetch in the yard, or just cozy cuddles, I’m here to keep tails wagging and pet parents at ease. I work from home during the week, so I have a flexible schedule that allows me to give your pet plenty of love and attention throughout the day. I’m completely free on weekends, which makes me available for full time boarding, walks, or drop in visits. Whether it’s playtime, feeding, or just some snuggles, your pet will be in great hands. I have a clean, pet friendly home with a secure fenced yard and two sweet, well socialized dogs who love new friends. I always follow your care instructions closely and can crate your dog if preferred. Whether your pet needs playtime, cuddles, or quiet space, I make sure they feel safe, happy, and right at home.

“I had a wonderful experience with Paula’s pet boarding she took exceptional care of my dog. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for reliable and caring pet boarding services.”


“My experience with Aitana was wonderful! She sent me numerous photos/ videos and updates throughout the weekend without needing to ask, and took my dog out on several walks all around Brickell. I could tell from the photos she was having the best time and was comfortable. My flight was cancelled and she kindly allowed my dog to stay an extra night on such short notice which was so appreciated! Will definitely continue to use her services moving forward as the experience was so pleasant from the beginning to the end.”


“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Outstanding Care for Our Baby, Zia! We recently boarded our dog Zia with Maria, and the experience was nothing short of amazing. From the moment we met her, she made us feel completely at ease. She was warm, sweet, and clearly loves animals. Throughout her stay, we received daily updates, including pictures and videos, which made us feel so connected and reassured. It was clear she was getting plenty of love, playtime, and attention. When we picked Zia up, she looked relaxed, well cared for, and honestly, like she had the time of her life. It’s such a relief to know there’s a place where she’s not just watched, but truly cared for like family. We’ll absolutely be bringing Zia back the next time we travel. Highly recommend Maria to any pet parent who wants the best for their furry companion!”


“Laura did such a good job taking care of our Parker. She kept us informed of how he was doing and communicated frequently with us. She sent us videos and pictures and walked him every day. He seemed comfortable and happy when we picked him up.”


“Robert and his family were fantastic carers for our two dogs, including a high-energy young Golden Retriever. They constantly shared photos and videos with us over the weekend that we were away and were in constant communication. We would love to use them again and absolutely would recommend them.”
