Warm Hearts Caring for Happy Pets

Welcome! **Your pets health and safety is important to me! I practice frequent hand washing and use an alcohol-based gel sanitizer according to the CDC’s recommendations during visits and in between each client.** About Me: -I am an animal lover with 15+ years experience caring for various animals such as cats, dogs, rabbits, fish and horses. My animal background includes being an animal rescuer, foster dog/cat mom and animal advocate. I also have experience with various training tools should you require your dog to need them. I know how important it is to know your pet is safe while you’re away. Our pets are our children and their health and well being is very important. Offering transport to and from vet, groomer and or trainer. *Regarding boarding: For the safety of all I do not allow children to interact with the pets. Please know that I’m here to answer any questions you may have to insure your pets safety. I look forward to caring for your pet. Thank you, Mara Pet Care is a full time availability service that I offer 7 days a week. My schedule is flexible. Contact me today to go over your pets needs. Caring for your pets in your home includes but not limited to outdoor leashed walk, outside potty break, fetch in fenced in yard if available. Each dogs care is unique.

Mara was amazing at caring for my very senior special needs dog and our other dog who doesn't warm up to people so well (but Mara's energy won her over). She provided great pictures to let us know they were doing well. Also, I appreciated how she accommodated our last minute booking when I was having trouble finding anything dog sitter. She's highly skilled and a literal dog whisperer. :-)

Mara is great, I know she does a good job with the care of my cats and she communicates with me every day. And my cats really like her.

Dog Walking • Sep 23, 2022

Mara was great. Her walks with my dog set my mind at ease and made it possible for my mom to keep my dog at home while I was away.
