Certified Veterinary Assistant
Pet care experience
I have taken care of pets for my entire life, from childhood into adulthood. I’m a certified Veterinary Assistant who’d love to look after your dogs (I give the best back scratches and belly rubs!), cats, birds, and any one of your treasured pets while you’re away. I’m the mom of one special needs dog, Joker, who I adopted from the SPCA in 2015, and I previously cared for an older special needs dog with a serious medical condition for about three years, until she passed in 2015. I’m trained in animal CPR, giving medications, animal behavior, and animal nutrition. During 2017, I babysat 14 cats and dogs, and I have a five-star rating on Rover as of this writing. I absolutely love to walk dogs and I’m eager to hear what you think is the best walking and care routine for your dog, so that I can take care of your best friend the same way that you would. We can play inside and take long walks, get plenty of exercise and I will send you lots of pictures. I have experience working with many breeds--of all ages and sizes--and dogs that require special attention or have medical conditions. I have plenty of experience caring for cats, too. They’re very special to me and I look forward to chatting with you about the best way to take care of your cat while you’re away at work or for the weekend. Thanks for reading my profile, and I can’t wait to hear from you and your furry (or not-so-furry, I love them all!) friend!
Reviews
Mara was fantastic. I would definitely use her again. Really pays attention to details and my dogs loved her
Mara provided drop in visits at my apartment for my 2 cats while I was away for 6 days. She took great care of them and sent me many photos. I’m very happy I booked Mara to care for them and will request her again the next time I go away!
I have used Mara several times this year for drop-in visits. She is excellent and super-reliable!!!! Java and I are thankful to her for her wonderful care!!!
She's wonderful!!

Information Mara K. would like to know about your pet
I don't have any breed preferences. I love all breeds. I just want to know what they enjoy-long walks, play time at a dog park or in the backyard, belly rubs, ect.
A typical day
I will pet sit cats or dogs. Let me know what your pet likes and doesn't like and if they have any fear so I can make their experience the best. I love animals and will treat your best friend as my own while in my care.
