Pet care experience

Comfortable with all sorts of care!

I have taken care of pets my entire life! My family has raised dogs as a hobby on and off for as long as I can remember. I've been around numerous breeds and have expansive knowledge on how to care for them! I have administered medication and am comfortable doing it.

Doggy Day Care • Feb 10, 2026

Being from Lawrence I wanted to find a place close to home but I took a chance on in home care out of town and Mahala is 100% worth the 30-minute drive Monday-Friday. She’s incredibly accommodating and truly treats Gus like her own! he’s so spoiled with her. Gus is usually a very nervous dog, but he immediately fell in love with her, her family, and her dog, which says everything. He has a great space to play and relax, and now he gets excited to go to daycare every day. I couldn’t recommend Mahala more!

I would require all pets that are watched in my home to be child friendly. All dogs will need to be cat friendly, as well.
