Active & Trustworthy Dog Mom
Pet care experience
Hi I'm Mariah! I'm a lifelong dog lover and experienced caretaker based in the Santa Cruz mountains. I've raised and cared for small and large breeds (I have a black lab myself!) and understand the energy, love, and patience pets need.
Reviews

Mariah took such great care of Kona and sent me updates throughout her whole stay. Kona really hit it off with her pup and can’t wait to come back for more play time!

I am surrounded by nature trails and have a very friendly black lab at home to keep your fur baby company. I can also crate your pup if preferred. Whether you need check-ins, overnight care, or just someone to keep your dog happy and active while you're away, I'm here to help!

Information Mariah G. would like to know about your pet
Let me know if your dog has any special needs or behaviors to account for. Also, let me know their favorite types of treats and toys.
A typical day
When I’m caring for pets, I love to keep things fun, active, and enriching—always tailored to each animal’s energy level and personality. For dogs, that might mean walks around the neighborhood, playtime at the park, or a relaxed day with fetch, tug-of-war, or a puzzle toy at home. If your pup is more adventurous, we might go on a pet-friendly hike or enjoy some splash time outdoors. For more mellow moments, I’m always happy to provide snuggles, gentle brushing, or frozen treats for a cool-down. I also love sending fun photo or video updates so you can see all the sweet and silly moments while you’re away!
