Mari has cared for our two senior pups twice, and has been absolutely phenomenal. She is communicative, kind, sends lots of photos and videos, and is great with our pups' food and medicine routine. She also helped one of our pups through an acute health issue that cropped up while we were gone. Her place is clean and cozy, and although her unit has a steep flight of stairs outside, her yard is spacious and wonderful for our pups to sniff around. We are so grateful we found Mari, our pups love her, and we would recommend her to anyone!

Mari did such a good with Bailey! Very responsive, sent us updates when we asked, and she sent us photos and fun videos of our girl. We really appreciated her giving our girl so much love and attention over the Thanksgiving holiday. We absolutely recommend her!

Mari took care of our (very stubborn!) 6-year-old golden retriever last weekend in our home. She did a great job. Took good care of the house, took the dog on some long walks, including (with our approval) to a dog park. She was upbeat, communicative, responsible, and handled the dog well. When we got home, the house was clean and the dog happy. We would absolutely recommend her.

Mari is an amazing dog sitter. Our dog is so happy to see her and knows he will have a good time when he stays with Mari.
