“Marie loves animals and finds joy in helping others! Her warm and loving personality and clear communication skills make her a real joy to work with. She has a lifetime of experience with common house pets (dogs and cats) and significant experience with fish, frogs, and reptiles (there's probably more I don't know about). She's the type of person who loves when owners leave detailed instructions but will communicate when she has questions. I was particularly impressed when Marie sent me pictures and daily updates of my pets and wasn't afraid to learn how to give my cat his medications. I would trust her with any of my animals because she always goes above and beyond, and I trust her in my home, too!”
