Marathon Mutts Celebrates and Says Thanks
It has been one year since Marathon Mutts, Winthrop’s dog walking and cat care provider, opened its doors for business. It all started with a dream, that soon became a reality, and owner Nellie Schamaun wanted to take a moment to thank the Winthrop Community and its animal lovers for all their support over the past year! We look forward to growing with the community, bringing jobs to Winthrop, and serving our existing and future clients with top-notch service they can trust. Have a question about your dog or a dog you’re thinking about adopting? Reach out to Nellie for free advice by sending an email to [email protected].
