Pet care experience
Loving Pet Care
I am retired and have a very flexible schedule. I ran a successful doggie daycare business for five years from my home in Ventura County and now live in Paso Robles and am looking forward to caring for dogs again. I am available for care/boarding in my home, as well as visits or stays in yours. I am most comfortable with small to medium dogs and most breeds.
Cat care experience

Marla also cares for cats. Learn about their cat-specific care experience.
Qualifications
Ratings and reviews
Marla was a wonderful sitter for our dog. We were running late and had to pick him up close to midnight. She had taken very good care of him, making sure he was , bathroomed and tucked in for the night. When I picked him up he was sleeping soundly. Happy I found her on such short notice!
Marla is amazing!


Marla took great of Archie. Highly recommend!

Marla is amazing. Always on time. The dogs love her. She takes great care of the dogs and our home.


The most smooth experience! Winnie girl had a great time, and we felt very comfortable leaving her with Marla for close to 4 days! She was very responsive, sweet, and welcoming to us and our baby.

This was our second time using Marla and it was just as great as the first! She is a great communicator, I never have to worry about what the pups are doing because she keeps us updated at least once a day. It is clear our dogs love her and are excited when she comes to stay with them.

Schedule
I have plenty of time and patience to devote to the care of your pet. I do not have a pet of my own so I am free to help out whenever needed.
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
My home is dog/cat friendly and has a securely fenced backyard. When staying in your home, I am very respectful of your space. I bring my own food and pilow of overnight stays. I care for your pet just as you do and I am very trustworthy with high standards. My goal is to leave things like I was never there or better.
A typical day
My day(s) are tailored with your pet's needs in mind. Whether they want to just hang out and sleep, explore or play fetch; I follow their lead.
