Marie Miller offers a premier In-Home Dog Sitting Service that transforms pet care into a joyful and enriching experience. With a sprawling half-acre property in beautiful Sonoma County, Marie creates an idyllic "Camp" for dogs, complete with a pool and a dedicated play area designed for fun and activity. Here, dogs are more than just visitors—they become part of the family. Evenings are spent cozily in the living room with TV time, followed by restful nights indoors. As a certified and insured professional, Marie brings a wealth of experience to her services, boasting credentials as an American Kennel Club Canine Good Citizen Approved Evaluator (AKC CGC) and a Certified Trick Dog Instructor (CTDI). Additionally, she offers a specialized Board and Train option for those looking to enhance their dog's training during their stay.

Marie’s dedication to personalized care begins with a complimentary Meet and Greet session. This is an invaluable opportunity for pet parents to discuss their dog's unique preferences and establish a comfort level before their stay. Her lifelong love for animals is backed by a rich history of working with various species, from horses to chickens, and her early Pre-Vet studies highlight her commitment to animal welfare. Understanding the nuances of animal behavior, Marie incorporates food as a motivational tool to encourage positive behaviors in dogs, making her service both educational and enjoyable.

Safety and health are of utmost importance, and Marie ensures all dogs have current vaccinations before their stay. This meticulous attention to detail, combined with her mobile service offerings across locations like Rohnert Park, Petaluma, and Healdsburg, makes her service accessible and convenient. Marie's passion for animals and her vast knowledge make her the ideal choice for pet parents seeking a dedicated and loving environment for their furry friends.

Marie is amazing! In 3 lessons we went from experiencing regular frustration when walking our 7 year old collie mix to pleasant walks and solid recall. A huge difference thanks to Marie's clear and specific instructions. - Santa Rosa, CA - November 2025

Marie is a treasure! She met with a group of us every week and helped us become better dog parents. We were all at different stages with our dogs - who ranged from puppy to senior - but Marie took the challenge in her stride and was patient, skilled, flexible and very kind. We all feel that we have learned so much that we plan to continue with monthly sessions. Now for the fun part - Marie is helping us to teach our dogs tricks. Thank you, Marie, you have made such a difference. - Oakland, California - September 2025

There's so many wonderful things to say about her. Just start off with she's very punctual, she solved every problem I had pet related, she was direct but also kind. She really knows her stuff when it has to do with dog training. She has a lovely personality and it's very clear that she loves what she does. I will definitely be recommending her to anyone I know who needs a dog trainer and I will be reaching out to her for a few more sessions in the future. - San Francisco, CA

- Ally P

Marie was great at honing in on and articulating exactly what my dog needed! I am much more confident that my training goals are achievable after our first session.

- Nikolas M

Our initial training consult was very informative. Marie is professional and helpful. Her instructions were clear and easy to follow. The training space is extensive, well equipped and maintained. We are looking forward to the board and train to kick off the next phase of training with our 10month old pup, Milo.
