Our Clients
Here’s What They’re Saying
Maíra is by far THE BEST dog trainer, dog walker, dog sitter and dog boarder out there! We have used her services since our beloved Golden Retriever, Cooper, was 3 months old. He is currently 3.5. She is extremely knowledgable about the proper way to train a dog and is so patient with owners. Man, as she is referred to has the most incredible relationship with Cooper. The TLC she gives Cooper just is very energetic as she takes him on weekly hikes ensuring he gets enough exercise for a big dog who likes to eat! Her reliability's much appreciated as there are several days he is home alone due to to work schedules. She has a great skill when juggling several dogs for a playgroup as well as taking on overnights and boarding. We frequently go away on weekends and Mah is always eager to take Cooper. She is very flexible with her schedule picking or dropping him off at our home...a big convenience to us. We always know Coop is in the best hands and treated with LOVE! Her home has a terrific big beautiful fenced in yard where the dogs can play and run safely. We really appreciate the pictures she sends us when taking Coop on a big adventure in the great outdoors. There's no lack of snuggle time as evidenced by her adorable pictures too. My husband and I highly recommend Mah for any of your dogs needs. We would be lost without her!

Pawston Canine is an absolute joy to work with. The entire team is professional, responsive and some of the only people in the area who can clip Bowen's nails! Highly recommended for boarding your dog, you will not be disappointed.

Maíra has been a godsend for our family. We have a fearful shepherd/lab mix who can't stay with just anyone, and Maíra is wonderful with him - he is always excited to spend time with her! We trust Maíra completely, and our dog always comes back tired and happy. Maíra is responsive and listens to our needs, and we are able to relax on our vacations knowing our dog is in kind, responsible hands. We are very grateful to have found Maíra.
Best,

Maíra and her family have taken amazing care of our puppy. We have a small dog, who does not like to be alone to be with big groups of other dogs. They give her a lot of attention, and send us adorable pictures of her while we're away. I definitely recommend their service and am pleased with the extra love and care that's provided to our pup.

Our dog is a lot to handle - big, smart, and never wants to leave home. However, with a busy travel schedule we often need help. When Maíra shows up our dog couldn't be more excited. Maíra's communication is great when he is away with her, she is always happy to advise with training tips, and he always returns happy and smelling nice! We couldn't be happier with the service provided.

Maíra is the best in her class for training and boarding dogs. When my family and our golden retriever, Hudson, met Maíra we quickly discovered that she is doing a job that she loves! She is excellent at training dogs and teaching their owners with patience and kindness. Maíra met us right where we were at with no judgement and ensured we had the right tools to be successful on our own. When we needed boarding services, it was comforting knowing that Hudson would be in a home environment with someone he loves and we felt comfortable with leaving. Maíra sends photos and videos of Hudson playing safely wiht other dogs in her beautiful backyard space and givs us peace of mind while we are away. The excitement Hudson shows when he sees Maíra is like no other! She comes with vast knowledge and passion for her work, and highly recommend Maíra for dog training and boarding.
