Meet Eva

Owner/CEO

Eva grew up near her grandparents farm in Sweden raising dogs, cats, chicken, cows, pigs, and horses. She developed an understanding of and love for animals at an early age. She graduated from Hunter College and began her career at a political research company—soon realizing that wasn't the path for her. Instead, she trained as a veterinary technician at an animal hospital and discovered caring for animals was her true calling.

Meet Sofia

Office Team Member

Sofia was always surrounded by animals while growing up in Sweden. She spent a lot of time on the family farm along with her sister Eva where she developed a real love and connection with all animals, but became especially close to dogs. After spending numerous years working in restaurants in New York, while putting herself through college, she jumped on the chance to team up with Eva and run Eva's Play Pups.

In 2002, Eva founded Eva’s Play Pups dog walking services, providing dog walking and cat sitting to Park Slope residents and their pets. Today, Eva's Play Pups has evolved into Eva’s Dog Camp an incredible 66 acre Countryside Dog Boarding Camp at a farm in the Endless Mountains of Pennsylvania.

Eva is very passionate about her job and loves spending time with the dogs outdoors at the farm, working side by side with the camp staff.  She also takes pride in consistently building on her vision for the future. Providing continuing education and training for the Canine Counselors as well as planning new and fun adventures for the furry campers are just a few things that Eva does to make Countryside Camp even more incredible.
