Animal lover to the rescue!

Pet care experience

People always tell me I am an excellent dog mother. I have two adorable small pups whom I love dearly, who live like kings, and know no woes. I have been fortunate enough to be able to find someone great to dog sit for me almost every time I have gone out of town and haven't been able to take my pups with me, and I understand how difficult it can be to find someone trustworthy to care for your pet while you're away. This is why I want to assure you that if your pets are left with me, they will be well taken care of, be active and as happy as they can be while their human is away. I have a full-time, 8-5 government job, and am looking for a way to bring in some extra income outside these hours and/or during the weekends. I can't think of a better way to earn some extra cash than playing with, walking, and taking care of adorable animals! I have many years of experience caring for pets, and if you are looking for a responsible, trustworthy, and active person to care for your fur baby while you're away, or just need some extra help with walking your dog during the week/weekend, I am the right person for you! Please note that for requests of longer than 3-4 overnight stays I would prefer to bring my own two dogs with me, so if your dogs are okay with having other dogs around please let me know in advance. My dogs love socializing with other dogs and I feel like having them around makes it a better dog sitting experience, for me, because I get to have them around, and for the ones I am dog sitting, as they get to engage, socialize and have fun! Also, since I do have a Monday-Friday 8-5 job, please make sure you are okay with having your dog be alone between those hours during the week days. If need be I can always come check on your pet during my lunch hour, but cannot provide an all-day care. During the weekends of course, your pets will have all my time and undivided attention! I hope you choose me as your sitter the next time you are away, and I am looking forward to hearing from you soon! Marina

Marina was absolutely fantastic to work with! Our dogs can be a bit aloof toward strangers but both took to Marina right away. She came over to our house multiple times prior to the actual stay to get acquainted with the dogs, to answer any questions we had, and to go over their routines and needs. During the stay she sent tons of photos and videos and was always available to give us updates and to assure us that they were doing well. We'll definitely be using her again for future dog sitting needs!

She really is a great sitter. Our cat was acting a bit off the night before we left. she made sure to send us lots of updates on both pets. I can say that they were spoiled and felt loved in her care!!

Excellent!!!! Marina was Fantastic. She stayed at our house with our dogs. Everything was great when we returned. She sent us pictures and videos everyday. We were gone 21 days and never had to worry about how the dogs were. They were very happy with her. When we got home we could tell that our dogs missed her. When she came to return the key - she got a better welcome that we did. They heard her car and went running to the door to greet her. I would recommend Marina to anyone who wants quality loving service for your dogs. We will definitely use her in the future.

Marina was great! Our regular sitter and our backup were both out of town on short notice. Marina was prompt ,courteous, and very sweet to our pups. She let us enjoy our vacation without worries of how things were going at home. If we need a sitter and our regulars are not available, Marina is our first call. I have already recommended her to a friend for next month.
