We feel so lucky to have met Mariel and can’t express how much her care for our pets means to us. She’s thoughtful, loving, and goes above and beyond every time. It’s such a gift to know our pets are in the best hands. Thank you, Mariel!

Mariel provided me with a detailed report at the end of her sitting which I appreciated so much! She really went above and beyond and you can tell she really cares for the animals she looks after. If I ever need to, I will book her again for sitting! Thank you 🙂

Mariel is very responsive and great with the pup. On walks she would also incorporate some light training. Would recommend!
★★★★★
Mariel is incredibly professional and excellent with dogs. She even did some training with our one year old pup! Super communicative, sent lots of videos, and our house was clean and just how we left it. Would recommend Mariel to anyone!

Mariel is an incredible pet sitter!! She cared for my pup Mabel like she was her own. Mariel was very proactive in communicating with me, sending lots of pictures and updates. She was a wonderful house guest too. She made sure both Mabel and I were happy and comfortable for the whole week she cared for her.

Mariel was AMAZING dog sitting my sweet pup at my place for the weekend. I got photos and videos throughout my time away and got updates regularly. She walked, played and cuddled with my dog and soothed her during fireworks. I felt so comfortable and relaxed knowing my dog was in such amazing hands. Mariel was truly truly the best!!

Mariel is amazing. We left our 4 month old French bulldog puppy (Momo) with Mariel for the weekend. When we returned, our puppy suddenly knew how to sit, shake paws, lay down, fetch, and drop her toy on command.
During our time away from the home, Mariel sent regular updates and videos telling us how Momo was doing. I can’t say how grateful we are that Mariel was there to take care of our fur baby. Thanks Mariel! You are a rock star!

Mariel is very good with animals in general. She not only loves them but understands them. She’s very good at anticipating their needs and understanding their behavior. She’s responsible and reliable and treats them not as a pet but as another member of the family.
★★★★★
Mariel is truly the best—we are so lucky to have her! It means so much that she cares for our pups the way she does, with genuine love and attention. She always leaves the house in amazing shape, and it makes a huge difference to come home to a clean space and happy boys. Her dedication, warmth, and thoughtful care do not go unnoticed. We feel incredibly fortunate to have found someone like her!
★★★★★
The level of caring and attention that Mariel gave to our pets was extraordinary. She is clearly a kind and caring person who genuinely loves animals. She sent us beautiful pictures and videos, which helped us to relax while spending the holiday away from our fur babies. I honestly think our three cats and our Boston terrier might like her better than me at this point. Book her! You will not regret it.
★★★★★
Incredibly communicative and great with Murphy, our 10-year old boxer. We ll definitely have her back!
★★★★★
Best dog sitter I’ve ever had! Mariel came more than prepared with treats, lick mats, and leashes. She sent frequent pictures and videos and kept me updated on all of Alfie’s activities. She even created a cute info sheet for future sitters and cleaned my kitchen and bathroom. Mariel went more than above and beyond, and I highly recommend her as a sitter!
★★★★★
I cannot emphasize enough how AMAZING Mariel was with our two pups. We feel so lucky to have connected with her and were beyond comfortable with her caring for Winnie and Luna. Mariel kept us informed the entire time we were away and even engaged our dogs in some training while we were traveling. We will 100% be booking with Mariel in the future and strongly recommend her as a caregiver.
★★★★★
Took such good care of my pups. Mariel kept me informed and sent a ton of cute photos. I highly recommend!!
★★★★★
We are so glad we found Mariel...she was the absolute perfect person for our scared little rescue pup. Mariel is extremely thoughtful and has great instincts when it comes to dogs and their behaviors. She was very patient with our Noor and gave her space and time to build trust. Once she gained her trust, Mariel was very thorough in her care for Noor. She was super communicative with us and sent us lots of video and photo updates, which made us feel totally at ease during our trip. Cannot recommend Mariel more highly, she is wonderful and loves taking care of pets!

We are so glad we found Mariel! It was clear from our first meet and greet that she loves animals so much. Mariel was amazing throughout the stay—perfect amount of communication/updates (pics, videos), giving our dog her medication, and taking great care of our home. She is professional, caring, and thoughtful, giving love, affection, and respect to our pets’ individual personalities.
It is such a relief to know that our pets and house are in good hands when we travel. Mariel definitely goes the extra mile and is highly highly recommended!
