Experienced & active dog sitter!

Pet care experience

Hello! I'm Mara (pronounced like Sarah). I have 11+ years of dog experience and am a very active dog sitter in the Boulder area. I have cared for dogs of varying ages, breeds, and sizes. I am always attentive to their needs, energy levels, and desires -whether it is the dog park, trail, a run, or just hanging out! Though I unfortunately cannot have dogs in my apartment, I am very flexible and usually available to watch dogs at others' homes. I grew up always having a dog in my family (an Irish Setter/Lab mix and a Bichon Frise/Lhasa Apso mix) but unfortunately have not been able to adopt one since I moved to Colorado. I currently work full-time (9-5 M-F) and then I usually enjoy the weekends outdoors with my partner (a fellow dog-lover). Dog-sitting for others, spending time with my friends' dogs, and working through Rover is a great way for me to spend time with awesome and loving furry friends!

Mara has been a phenomenal dog-sitter for our active lab-mix, Apollo. She is incredibly reliable and communicative during her stays with him. AND she takes him running with her and clearly gives him lots of love. We always arrive home to a relaxed, happy pooch.

Mara has dog sat for us several times. We have 3 larger dogs who require a lot of structure and attention. Because of this, we are very picking when it comes to who can watch our crew. Mara does a great job with the boys. We trust that they will get the attention and exercise they need when in her care. When we come home after she has watched them, they are happy and a tuckered out. We know that Mara follows the rules and routines we have in place for the boys. Rules such as not allowing them on furniture, no jumping, etc. I highly recommend Mara as a dog sitter.

Mara has been a great resource and sitter for our 2 high energy dogs (and obese cat). What's really great about Mara is that she actually spends time with our dogs on the same level we spend time with them... She takes them to work, to the park, on a hike and to meet up with other dog friends for a pup playdate. We've relied on Mara for short notice getaways and trusted her for long out of the country (and out of contact) trips. You can tell everything has been great when you return and your dog is bummed Mara is leaving.

With two nervous rescue dogs, I worry every time I go out of town because it's always been so stressful finding a patient caregiver for them. I am so thankful for Mara and her compassionate, calm and patient approach to caring for my pups! I really appreciate her daily updates, her flexibility with scheduling and the extra steps she takes to ensure my already anxious pups are comfortable and well taken care of. I use Mara every time I travel, and my pups actually get excited when she comes over, which is such a relief. Thanks for everything, Mara!
