I recently had the Great Experience of Buying a Llama from Marielle! She is not only a wealth of Knowledge but she made the whole process a Joy! She answered ALL of my questions and then some and continued to Help after I got my Llama home, answered questions about my new Llama's adjustment period! She even Loaded and came with us to unload, our new llama (MOSE)! I would definitely recommend Marielle if your looking to Purchase a Llama, what cuties she has, they are sweet animals! The Great care she has given really shows up on her animals! Best Regards!

"Marielle was just wonderful! She was kind, patient, and highly skilled. As a new goat owner, the time she took to show me how to trim hoofs was invaluable. My Nigerian Dwarf Goats took to her instantly and completely relaxed and enjoyed their "spa day." Most impressively was her ability to then go next door and help my neighbor with her large and untamed goats. She handled them with confidence and loving kindness and they too relaxed into the pampering. I would highly recommend her to anyone!"

"We hired Marielle to come out and look at our goats in hopes to find out what was wrong with them, as they appeared to be sick. We had never had a goat or a Llama before and Marielle explained that she raises both. Well I have to say her knowledge is extensive, not only did she know what was wrong, but treated them on the spot. She gave them de-wormer CD&T, and penicillin, taught me how to give a shot and where to give a shot and then told me what to give them and when for their future care. Then she trimmed their hooves and showed me how to take care of foot rot and taught me to trim their hooves and was very patient when I did not think that I could do it. Marielle gave me a name of a vet, if needed, and what supplies to have on hand! She was very reasonable in cost and a wealth of knowledge and has answered every question that I have had, in detail! I have learned So much from her! I would highly recommend Marielle for the care of your animals!"

"Marielle has been trimming my goat’s feet for almost a year now. I find her very gentle and knowledgeable with our goats. I can always count on Marielle if something is wrong with my guys that she would no how to handle it. She is very reliable on coming when she is scheduled and if I forget to call she e-mails me when it is time to trim. I would totally recommend her for any job."

"I discovered Marielle when it became apparent that I was making no headway in handling our two llamas. My friends and I work with horses a lot but it was just different enough to make me uneasy. The day we spent with Marielle was such a pleasant and informative time -- she is firm and competent with the animals, and clear and helpful with the (clueless!) owners. Very patient with BOTH. I was amazed. It increased my confidence so much, knowing that I'd be able to do routine health care and handling with our animals. This winter we had to move them from pen to pen frequently due to bad flooding, and I couldn't have done it without Marielle's "Day of Knowledge". I'm looking forward to having her out to shear them this spring."

"Marielle was a great find! We’d read books & articles to prepare ourselves for the acquisition of our little herd of goats, but somehow the thought of attempting to follow written instructions to trim hooves didn’t seem like a good idea. Marielle is wonderful with the animals. Our skittish “fainter” actually managed to stay upright during Marielle’s hoof trimming visit. She’s also been very generous with her wealth of information regarding their care. We highly recommend her."

Buckley, WA"I brought my two goats to Marielle (the owner) to have their hooves trimmed. She did a great job, and was very patient and kind in dealing with my goats. She also de-wormed my goats and put a powdered delousing medication on them. Lastly she evaluated their general health. All of this only cost me $25! (She gives a 20% discount because I came to her, she will drive out to care for your animals too). I was so happy with the work she did and the whole experience. I definitely recommend Marielle and Queen Annes Lace to care for your animals."
