Love and Care like they are my own

I am a lover of animals in general. I have had dogs, cats, horses and goats all my life and know the commitment and care that goes into owning and loving them as family members. I have lived on a ranch and can care for livestock as well. I have been caring for my own animals, as well as friends, family and clients since I was a young girl.

Doggy Day Care • Jun 18, 2026

Mara was great with our pups. She gave us updates and sent us pictures. She also was able to take my pups last minute which I greatly appreciated. I would definitely recommend her for any of your sitting needs.

Mara provided loving care for our demanding 6 month old giant breed puppy. I would highly recommend her. He will be back!

Boarding • Jan 06, 2023

Mara is amazing, very hands-on, and absolutely reliable and helpful. We needed a place to board our cats as we had been invited last minute to stay with friends who were allergic to cats. Mara accommodated our cats although she usually takes dogs, sent photos and updates and was very helpful with the pick-up time and location. I can only recommend Mara highly and would board my cats with her again at any time. Thank you for helping out!

I would recommend Mara for all your pet sitting needs ANYTIME!! Mara not only takes great care of animals...Animals are her life! Mara has horses, dogs, cats, goats..you name it! I have left my dog in her loving arms many times while I was away and my dog came back happier! She is a loving person and will go out of her way to make sure your animal is well taken care of, played with and loved!

If you're looking for someone to care for and love on your animals - big or small, Mara is who you want! From horses to goats, to dogs and cats, and anything in between she's got you covered! You can travel worry free with her on the job - she will care for them as if they are her own. I've called on her many times for help with my horses and dogs and always appreciate her care and insight with my animals. One little kitten or a farm full of critters - they'll love her!! And so will you!

Safety, trust & environment

I have three dogs, a 10 yro Pug, an 11 yro island mix breed and a mix breed Doodle pup about 2 an a half. I recovered out of a ditch. They are all very good natured, live in the house and on the furniture. It is not a free for all, I do have some rules, so I think. I also have 3 cats, horses and some goats. I can-do drop-in care or house sit on site. I have 20 acres in Pilot Hill. The property is not fully fenced, but I do have the materials and ability to put up pens. If you would like your pet to come here, we will discuss the individual needs of your pet.
