The More The Merrier!
Pet care experience
I’ll gladly care for, love on, and even help with training if needed. All of the fun services I provide include tons of outdoor time for the pups regardless of the weather(unless specifically asked otherwise) , tons of attention for both cats and dogs, love, and care while you are away. At the end of the day love, consistency and attention is all they really want! And who blames them! It’s why we have them. I have spent the last 7 years doing what I love with animals(pet sitting, dog walking, etc) in a non professional environment. The last 5 years I have volunteered as a foster parent and dog walker for the Regional Animal Services of King County and have my own fur babies at home as well( both 🐱 and 🐶). I am very understanding of dietary needs and restrictions, personal wants/routine a family may have, basic medication needs, and overall care needs of each family. I am willing to learn, grow and love your family’s biggest lover!
Reviews
Marcola was such an wonderful care giver! And thanks to her excellent communication I felt so at ease that our cat was being well cared for while we were gone.
did a good job sending pictures and he seemed to have a good time
Responsive and friendly. She cared well for my very old dog and sent videos and messages to assure all was fine.
Marcola did a fantastic job feeding and caring for my elder cat Simon. Would absolutely ask for her help again!

Safety, trust & environment
Regardless on if care is at your place, or mines, fur babies get outdoor fun time, potty breaks, unlimited water supply, and lots of care. I do have a puppy and a cat of my own, so I do require meet and greets before care to ensure each pets safety while in my care. I do ask that families provide crates if their pup is in need of a crate bigger than 32’. Pets aren’t allowed on furniture here, so if your pup has a special blanket or bed, feel free to bring that as well!
Home
Information Marcola R. would like to know about your pet
No breed preference or restrictions here and I would love to know about your pup. The more information I have, the better I can prepare and care for your pup. With a child in the home, more aggressive behaviors would have to be worked with outside of my home, and possibly work up to other accommodations. I can usually care for pups with separation anxiety, so if this is your pup, please let me know in advance while speaking about care, so I can accommodate them accordingly. My schedule is flexible, however, without proper notice, I would have to possibly turn anxious behaviors (barking, howling, nonstop digging, etc.) away. I want create the most calming environment for your fur baby while you are away, so if this sounds like your pup, let me know, and I can possibly move my schedule around to make your fur baby feel more secure while you are away!
A typical day
We love to stay active in my home! Even when it’s colder than usual, my son and I love frequent hikes, visits to the dog parks(we have one RIGHT in our complex), and just exploring in general, so if you have a high energy pup, he is going to love it here! My longest work day is Monday, getting off at 5:30. But we have an extremely big field right next to our home where the pups can easily chase geese and run as much as they please!

Availability
I am currently working part time, and school from home. I work 5 min away from my residence, and stop in frequently on days I’m at work more than 5 hours. Meals, play time and potty breaks are tailored to your individual pet ( these times can be discussed when planning care), and I love photos so be prepared for those during their stay as well!
