Just like family

Pet care experience

I treat your pup like they were my own. same snuggles, treats and love. They won't be lonely between my own dog, daughter (7 years old) spouse and myself they are sure to get all the attention they deserve and need.I started pet sitting in Hawaii in 2013, and have continued here in Bluffton. I love animals so does my daughter. She knows limits, she isn't allowed to lay, sit, poke or pull on animals. I am a firefighter on shift work, but my other half is home when I'm not. I have experience with dogs up to the size of Great Danes. I also do horse sitting (at clients barns), have experience with reptiles and we also have chickens. I truly believe that animals are the best judges about people, I've had numerous owners tell me that thier pets don't really do well with people and when I met them they are the sweetest things ever and love the attention. I have experience with administration of medications to include injections, post OP care, and special needs.

Our shy Labradoodle had a great time with Mara and her family. We will ask them to take care of her again.

Mara and her family were wonderful with our girls! They had an awesome, dog friendly set-up, complete with all amenities our girls enjoy at home and then some. The girls were comfortable immediately at drop off and they were happy and relaxed at pick-up. We are excited to have them stay with them again and again! Thank you again, Mara! Prosolow’s Paw Palace is highly recommended.

Safety, trust & environment

On almost 2 acres of land with most of it fenced in your pup while have a blast. Walks are still a multi day routine. We have one elderly female lab (15 years old) and a 7 year old daughter who has been around animals since she was born, and also have chickens. We spend a lot of time outside and encourage our 4 legged friends to join us (plenty of water and shade provided of course), with the doggy door they free to go in and out as they want.

Information Mara P. would like to know about your pet

Do they get along with children, other dogs, and are they chewers? Are the house broke? Any additional information that is important for the care of your fur baby.

A typical day

Playing in the back yard, 2 walks a day or a run. Lots of love and snuggles. My daughter enjoys reading to animals and loves to play with them and sometimes even acts like them. We truly treat them like family. You will receive pictures and updates daily (more or less as you prefer).
