I will be returning to the area June 19th 2026. My husband and I relocated up to Buffalo to be closer to my family and where we were blessed with our first child. We are now moving our little family back to the 321, where I can enjoy being a (mostly) stay at home mom while doing some softball coaching and pet sitting. I plan to keep my schedule pretty flexible so I am still available for both my son and some work before my husband starts his new teaching job in August.

Safety, trust & environment

I don’t offer pet care in my own home because one of my dogs is animal reactive. In a client’s home I am respectful of their space and stick to the instructions given to me for their animal. My hope is to give the client peace of mind by offering good communication and ensuring the comfort and health of their animal.

Information Marcella O. would like to know about your pet

Please inform me of any special needs your dog requires, I am happy to fulfill any requests to provide a happy and healthy experience for everyone! I do have experience with reactive dogs and am aware of the special care and consideration they need. I will always make your pet’s safety a priority. This still applies if your dog likes to socialize!

A typical day

As I am an active person I love to stimulate your dog, enjoy sights and smells and fresh air when we have it. For my senior dogs this is just as important, just at a level comfortable for them. I am a nurturer and love to see big smiles and wagging tails!

Pet care experience

Growing up in a household with my grandparents raised me to be compassionate and mindful of the needs of others. I live to serve and have been surrounded most of my life with people who do so out of love. I have experience with animals as small as mice and as large as horses. Personally, I’ve always had bully breeds and understand the responsibility taken on with a misunderstood breed. Along with the accountability with all breeds to ensure they receive the proper environment and guidance to be happy and healthy. I consider myself a very level headed and reliable person and would love the opportunity to care for your animal.

Marcella was WONDERFUL! Due to some health reasons my mom couldn't walk her pooch. Marcella came 3x a week to walk her dog for a few weeks. She was prompt friendly & the dog loved on her the moment they met! I highly recommend Marcella & wouldn't hesitate to hire her again if the need arrises.

Marcella did an amazing job taking care of our puppy! She is very reliable and went above and beyond finding ways to keep him occupied while we were working. Highly recommend!!

Marcella has proved herself as a very responsible pet caregiver and animal lover. She has worked as a pet sitter for a number of years and is loving and caring. There is no doubt that she is capable of handling any pet with love as if it were her own😍
