Information Mariele B. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if your dog/cat has any specific need ahead of time. What activities do they like the most? How often do they need to be taken out and played with? Are they good around other animals and people?

A typical day

Dogs can expect multiple walks a day, playtime with their toys, and a quiet environment that is perfect for any dog, even anxious or older pups, to relax and feel comfortable in while their humans are away. For any cat stays, I have plenty of space to provide a separate area that is just for them. House is very clean and quiet, perfect for kitties to explore and get acclimated to during the visit. They'll enjoy playtime with toys, lots of windows to see what's going on outside, and plenty places for those afternoon naps.

Mariele is unusually gifted at getting dogs to feel comfortable and safe to fully play and have fun! My rescue dog was so happy with her, he sprinted around the apartment and had the time of his life while playing with her. She is truly the dog whisperer as well as kind, reliable and excellent at communication - my dog and I are lucky to have her!

Mariele was amazing, she messaged me with details after each walk and sent pictures while I was on a trip. This gave me peace every day while away from our dogs. I met with her once to introduce her to our fur babies and she was such a nice person. She checked doggies had food and water when she dropped them off after each walk as well. Would definitely book her again. Thanks Mariele!
