Pet care experience
You know when people ask if you’re a cat person or a dog person? I’m that person who can’t be forced to pick! I grew up with both cats and dogs my whole life, most recently with my longtime pet love, Ziggy, a dachshund mutt I rescued when she was a year old...she lived to be almost 17 years old and recently passed away, so I have experience in caring for senior dogs too. I have a pet-friendly car and a flexible schedule. Your animal’s safety is my top priority, followed by making sure they feel loved and cared for while you’re away! Dogs: I am only willing to provide single-household walks on leash - or off-leash on a trail at your request and with your express permission. I’m not the best runner, but will happily jog up to a mile with your dog! Cats: Sleeps all day and just needs a litter box changed? Wants to play with something shiny for hours on end? Happy to help your feline companion too! My rates are negotiable. Looking forward to meeting you and your furry sidekick!
Reviews
Mara was awesome! She kept us in the loop during Milo’s stay, sent pictures and updates each day. Will definitely book with her again! Highly recommend.
Mara took great care of Lily while I was away. She sent daily updates and was flexible for drop off and pick up! Would highly recommend.
Mara was so nice and friendly! Thank you so much. really made us feel at ease!
Mara was very friendly and kind to our cat and dog. I would have enjoyed a bit more check ins from her however when I did reach out she quickly answered and gave detailed messages.

Safety, trust & environment
I live in a fair-sized apartment with a balcony, with plenty of room for smaller animals to play. I have pee pads/artificial grass and a litter box available, and live in a place where walks are easy.
Home
Information Mara R. would like to know about your pet
I live in an apartment, so out of respect to my neighbors all I ask is that your animal is not the loud, constantly-barking type. Anything else you think I should know - favorite spot to walk? Favorite cuddle spot? Time for treats? Temperament? I’m all ears!
A typical day
Animals staying with me can expect a lot of TLC in the form of cuddles and playtime. During the week, I am out of the house for work from 10 am to 2 pm, but outside of those hours am readily available for walks, playing a game of fetch, and more.

Availability
I have a fairly flexible schedule, and I'm typically out of the house from 10-2 on weekdays but home otherwise. If your furry companion can withstand a few hours on his/her own, they may be a great fit!
