Pet care experience

Your Dog’s best Companion!!!

I have been around dogs almost my entire life. Actually I don't have a pet of my own because my best friend (corgi Cassie) passed away. However, I keep my heart and home open to my four leg-legged friends. I love to be with dogs for many reasons, one of them because they are sensitive to people feelings. Also each dog has their own character and ways of showing their appreciation. I would love spending time taking care of your dog. I am at home so my availability is pretty flexible. In my house they will get individualized attention and love as they needed. I have a good sized fenced back yard and sidewalk in my neighborhood area to take walks. I’d love to keep your dog happy with long walks or another activity of your choice. Also I will send notes and photos during the stay.

I was nervous to leave our little one with someone I didn’t know, but Marluce put us at ease. She was great about staying in touch while we were out of town and sent lots of pictures. We will absolutely use her again.

She is amazing and our dog really loves her. She always sends updates and pictures and I know my dog is happy and well taken care of when he’s there.

Doggy Day Care • Dec 12, 2025

Marluce was great and very accommodating with a very short notice. It allowed us to travel with our pup and enjoy the graduation in Chattanooga. Her home and backyard were perfect and Larson seemed to have had a great time, considering he slept the whole time driving back to Knoxville. If the need to take our dog again presents itself, we would definitely book Marluce again!

Marluce cares greatly about providing excellent care and nurturing of our pets. I highly recommend Marluce and her beautiful family and home which has a large fenced in yard.
