Pet care experience
Hi! My name is Mariela or just Mary for short and i am a vet student! I grew up around dogs (my parents used to have mini pins) and i love all animals big and small, breed or no breed i don't mind. Currently i am studying for my last vet exam so i am home full time. I have two dogs - a rescue mix Lola and a weimaraner that moved with me from Europe, Vee. I have a big fenced backyard where i like to play fetch with my huge fetch fans (Vee and Lola) and i can provide jogging or biking ( i do biking with a walky dog plus attachment) if you desire. I am a positive and caring person who loves all animals. Taking excellent care of your pets is important to me and I will be sure to follow all of your instructions. I want to make sure your dog stays happy and healthy while you are away. I am looking forward to spending time with your dog and can't wait to hear from you!
Reviews
Sparks had a great time and was very well taken care of. Thanks!
Our dog had an amazing stay with Mariela and her two pups! She took great care of him and even trimmed his nails! We'd highly recommend and will be using Mariela again!
Mariella was great with our boy who is slow to warm up to new people and places. By the second day he fit right into the pack and Mariella sent us pictures of his progress. I would definitely recommend her!!
Wonderful as always!

Information Mariela R. would like to know about your pet
I would like to know more about your pup's diet. When you feed them and how many times a day. Do you have any special inquiries (like rest 1 hr after eating, slow feeding bowl etc). I would like to know if they have any type of aggressive behavior towards dogs they don't know or resource guarding. Are they scared of anything? (ie fireworks/vacuum cleaner/certain people or other objects) More about their character and what they love to do!
A typical day
The area i live at is right next to Sugarland Run stream valley park. It is a beautiful park i like to go for our evening walks. I also have a huge fetch fan (Vee), so if your dog likes balls or frisbees they are going to have lots of fun! I also like to keep my high energy dogs mentally stimulated, that's why i have some puzzles and we love positive reinforcement learning tricks with a clicker and some treats!
