Hi there, I'm Mariana, I love all animals, big and small. I have a passion for dogs and pets in since I can remember.
Throughout the years I had many wonderful pets to keep me company: rabbits, ginnipigs, horses, chinchillas, snakes, ferrets, hamsters and dogs! As an owner I was very picky about who and where to leave my dogs with, after all they were my babies. I always made sure that the pet nannies and walkers had a sincere love for animals and dogs and weren't fussy about muddy paws, sloppy kisses or cuddles in bed.
That kind of tells you what kind of person I am! I live in a medium sized house with a large fenced garden with my boyfriend (who LOVES dogs!).
I work from home which enables me to give your pet the walks, belly rubs and attention they need and the dogs have the run of the house. We are surrounded by plenty of parks, commons and green areas which a perfect for adventures.
We cater walks to the dogs we have but as a staple we can all 3 times, 2 short ones morning and night and a long one for playing at lunchtime. We have a young black lab who makes the most of her parents job by playing and running around with our guests. We also have a 2yo human girl who has been raised to love and respect all animals.
If you choose me to look after your pets i can assure you I will treat them like I did my own and spoil them rotten, but most importantly will care for them lovingly and patiently.
I can only do drop off and pick up within a reasonable distance.
Please let me know if any issues you may have (destructive behaviour, potty training, bad recall, aggressive, fearful) as we will have other dogs around and is important we know everyone will be safe.
I have never turned a dog down if I have bought time to prepare myself and the house!
Thanks for reading!
Mariana was absolutely lovely and spoiled my babies . Received regular updates, photos and communication about their activities. Will certainly use her services again.
Mariana looked after our 6-month old pup for 2 weeks recently and we have to say that she was amazing. From our first meeting, we just had a good feeling that she was the right person to look after our little child, and she didn’t disappoint. She updated us enough on our little guy’s stay, so that we didn’t worry and knew he was having a great time. Mariana’s family are obviously obsessed with dogs, which is such a comfort when leaving your loved one for such a long time. Will definitely use Mariana again next time we need a dogsitter. Totally recommend!
