Who We Are

About Us


Namaste Dog Lovers strive to help dogs have a good and balanced mental well-being and socialisation with other dogs and people.
Dog socialisation is vital in dogs being stress free and comfortable in a variety of environments and circumstances. This benefits not just the dog but the dog owner as well.

Our services include training and boarding. Daycare is available for small groups, off-peak season, for regular clients.

For new dogs, an assessment session will be required, as the harmony of the group is paramount.

We are fully licenced and insured for Home Dog Boarding and transportation by car.

Awarded 4 stars by Brent council.

About Founder

Mariella has 12 years of experience in sales and marketing.

She founded and developed a comparison website for telecom and education services in Brazil in 2010. After raising capital from Angel Investors, and building the team to 9 people, the start-up was sold to a corporate group in 2012.

In 2021, Mariella wanted a change of career and during the pandemic became a part-time Dog Walker and loved it!

With her passion for animals and nature it was a natural progression for her to create Namaste Dog Lovers. Especially, since she grew up with dogs from a young age and her parents today still live with 6 dogs.

Being fully certified Mariella has trained and looked after many dogs of all sorts of sizes and breeds.
