"Of course, I hate to leave my dogs for any extended period of time, but when I have to, I can rest easy that the care Marla gives to my dog, Elvis, is the next best care to my own. Marla not only takes good care of Elvis, but she is also very attentive and gives him lots of TLC while I am gone."

"Marla is marvelous! We are pleased and surprised when we came back from Europe to find that our dogs had taken our absences in stride (because Marla had pampered them with so much love and attention). We trust her implicitly with our "kids" and our home!"

"It's not easy to find someone so trustworthy, honest and reliable who also has such a way with animals. Marla often cares for my dog and three parakeets because I travel a lot. Once when I was out-of-state, one of my budgies needed medical attention [see the picture of her sitting on her eggs!] and Marla quickly got her to a top avian vet for care. I recommend her highly. Having used other petsitters I can honestly say she is the best."

"Marla is the most trustworthy person we've ever known. Her visits have ranged from one-night stays to as long as 10 days as the sole caregiver/companion. Marla lives in our home with the respect of a guest and the wherewithal of an animal lover. It is hard to explain the comfort and peace of mind that comes with her being in our home. Her passion for animals is unparalleled to anyone we've ever known which makes her the perfect choice (and frankly, the only choice) for our rottweiler - basset-hound - mix - of - a - mutt, Bacon. She genuinely loves him and he knows it. We recommend her without hesitation and wouldn't ever go away without Bacon if it wasn't for her. She is a passionate, honest, conscientious person who will love your animals as if they were her own, becuase when they are her responsibility, they ARE her own. And that's the kind of person you want in your home and in your pet's life."

"Marla is terrific, responsible, reliable, generous, and kind to people AND to animals. She's the best pet auntie our 4-legged crowd could have and they love her as much as we do. She takes excellent care of sick, geriatric, and even hyperactive pets. Anything they need, she'll supply. In our case, Marla cared for one old dog who needed pills twice a day; one young, but sick dog who needed daily treatments, and one healthy hyperactive dog who needed constant attention and reassurance. Plus, she tended to our aging cat who needed antibiotics for a nasty infection. They all thrived and recovered, thanks to Marla's consistent and thorough, loving attention."
