Availability

My schedule is flexible, but I do have classes from 11–12 and 1–2 on weekdays. I’m typically available in the mornings, afternoons after 2, and evenings for walks, drop-ins, or pet sitting. I’m usually off on Tuesdays and Thursdays, which means I often have more availability those days. However, I do occasionally work, so my schedule may vary slightly. Feel free to reach out and I’ll always do my best to accommodate your pet’s needs!

Safety, trust & environment

In my clients’ homes, I make sure pets are comfortable and well cared for in their own space. I follow feeding routines, provide plenty of playtime and walks, and give them all the attention they need. For dogs, I love going on walks and spending time outdoors. For cats, I offer lots of affection (when they want it!) and make sure litter boxes are kept clean. Whether it’s staying overnight or stopping by for a check-in, I always treat every pet like my own.

Information Maren M. would like to know about your pet

Before watching your pet, I’d love to know about their routine, any special needs, medications, dietary restrictions, and their favorite activities. Understanding their personality, energy level, and any quirks will help me provide the best care possible!

A typical day

A typical day includes following your pet’s normal routine with feeding, walks, playtime, and plenty of attention. I tailor care and activities to each pet’s personality and energy level to ensure they feel comfortable and engaged. I also provide regular photo updates so you can feel confident that your pet is safe and well cared for while you’re away. 🐾

Pet care experience

I’ve cared for dogs and cats my entire life and have extensive hands-on experience with both. I currently have four cats of my own and volunteer at the Santa Fe Animal Shelter, where I help make sure every homeless kitty gets the love and attention they deserve. In addition to pet sitting and walking for friends and neighbors since middle school, I’ve worked at a professional doggy daycare and boarding facility. There, I was responsible for supervising group play, feeding dogs with specific dietary needs, administering medications (including pills and liquids), bathing dogs, and keeping their environment clean, safe, and fun. Whether it’s cuddles, playtime, a nice walk, or making sure your pet sticks to their routine, I treat every animal like they’re part of my own family!

Maren was an exceptional cat sitter for us! She went above and beyond to take care of our kitty. She communicated and sent lots of pics. I would highly recommend Maren as a pet sitter to anyone.

If I had to rank the people I know by how much they love animals, Maren Mallory would be number one on my list. She absolutely adores animals and is willing to do pretty much anything to guarantee their comfort and health. She's watched my dogs before and she did a fantastic job.
