I ONLY BOARD FEMALES ☺️ Hello! My name is Mara and I would love to help with your furbabies while you are away and cant! Loving and compassionate towards any and all animals! I am a dog mom myself and know the struggles of finding a safe and loving place while away! I offer overnight stays, dog walking, and drop ins! I have 2 female dobermans who are gentle giants. One is 4 years old and i also have a 1 year old. She LOVES playing and having friends around! Small or large!! I can assure you that your dog/cat would be more than at home here and treated just as my own. I also have a 14 year old son who loves animals as well and really enjoys helping out with their needs. Looking forward to hearing from you! I work from home, so your pet will never be alone or crated all day! I have a fenced in front and back yard that are separated, they are let out very frequently as we go in and out all the time and they go freely as they want since it's all fenced in! There is nothing around my home that isn't safe for them they are part of the family when they are here!

Mara was amazing! Really appreciate the flexibility with drop off/pick up times, and all the pictures during the stay. The dogs had a blast, I know they’d love to stay again in the future!

Cherish had a great experience with Mara. She got along well with Mara's dogs and hated to leave. We will definitely be repeat clients!

Mara did an excellent job taking care of our pups while we were gone. Our other sitter bailed on us last minute and Mara was willing to help us out the day before we left. She sent updates throughout the week and treated them like her own. We will definitely be using her in the future!!

Mara was great since the beginning. She set up a meet and greet for Dinora to feel more comfortable. She sent pictures of Dinora every day I was gone as an update of how she was doing. I'd definitely board Dinora with Mara again! Thank you :)
