Dependable animal loving local

Pet care experience

Hello hello- My name is Mara and I'd love to come watch over your fuzzy companions while you're away. I've always been an animal person, and can't wait to share my love for animals with some new furry friends. I live in the Bothell area but am happy to travel to other Seattle neighborhoods. Depending on the neighborhood and the usual routine for the pup I'd love to take dogs out on walks/light jogs and go to a nearby dog park if that's a possibility. My main goal is to make sure the dogs I sit/walk get the attention and love they need and deserve while their pawrents (that's you!) are away. Some good ol' exercise and treats are important too, but I always make sure that's ok first. I am an equal opportunity dog loving person, so big dogs are welcome! (Some of my favorites have been the 70+ pound pups who think they are lap dogs :D) Being around dogs brings me joy so selfishly, I hope I can come spend some quality time with your furbabies! As you can see by my photos I love taking pictures of the pups too, so let me know if you'd like photo updates!

Mara took such wonderful care of my very young puppy Zvezda while Zvezda was recovering from an injury. She made sure she was comfortable, calm and got all the sleep possible to heal. This allowed me to keep going to work so I can pay for all these pesky vet bills... Zvezda is all healed up and still doing doggy daycare Mara.

Mara is great! We had our original pet-sitting plans cancel at the last minute. Mara made sure to meet the animals-dog and cat-(and us) to ensure a good fit! We appreciated this so everyone would be comfortable going forward. Mara was so helpful in taking care of the animals and volunteered to grab our mail and water my many plants! During our vacation, we kept mentioning to one another our peace of mind while Mara was at our house. She was sure to update us on the animals while we were gone and sent us the cutest pics! We highly recommend Mara, and we will definitely be asking her to watch our pets and home during our next vacation! Thanks again, Mara!

Mara was great! Even when she was very very sick she took very good care of my dog! I really appreciate everything that she did for her. I highly recommend her.
