Highlights
Pet care experience
Your baby will receive 5 star care!
I have experience with light dog training (leash walking, potty training etc. Always positive reinforcement only. I am not a professional dog trainer though), as well as many years of caring for senior cats and dogs. I’m a huge dog lover with over 12 years experience of professionally caring for dogs and cats (walking, feeding, bathing, cuddling, etc). I am completing pre-requisites to become a Veterinarian Behaviorist! I’ve grown up with pets my whole life and absolutely love animals! My goal with you is to work with what you and your animals need- always with clear communication and transparency. I prioritize having a good relationship with you so we can build trust. I’ll win over your pup’s heart with fun, care, enrichment, and treats (and we’ll figure something out if they are on a special diet). I hope to work with you and your babies :)
Cat care experience
Mariela also cares for cats. Learn about their cat-specific care experience.
Qualifications
Ratings and reviews
Mariela is conscientious and reliable, and had fun with Theo. I was happy to know Theo was in such good hands.
Thanks, Mariela, for following Minnie’s lead and being so sensitive to her needs. Your understanding of her is helping her build trust.
We are very happy with Mariela’s service, communication, and friendliness! Will hire again for sure!
Mariela was great with all 4 of our animals! Super attentive and the dogs had a great time playing with her. Would definitely book again!
Mariela was prompt with communication and photos. Her availability times were perfect for what we needed. She won our Sadie Grace over with out having a warm up greeting/meeting. Thank you for taking care of our dog on such short notice.
Mariela was super nice and helpful! Would definitely book her again any time.

Where your pet will stay
Safety, trust & environment
My house is pet safe. I have a fenced back yard and we enter the house through the garage. I am very careful with opening doors or leaving food out for my own pets!
Pets
A typical day
I normally take the dogs on a walk once day. I will play with them and their toys if they like to play or just give them pampering through cuddles if they prefer that. We can do light training and lick mats for enrichment too if their parents allow.
