Loving Care For Your Family Friends

Hi, I'm Marceline! Growing up with a wildlife rehabilitator for a parent, I was surrounded by animals from day one. From bottle-feeding baby raccoons to gently caring for injured birds, I learned early on the patience, empathy, and responsibility that animals deserve. That lifelong passion turned into a career of caring: I spent 4 years at a cat shelter, helping to socialize, medicate and find loving homes for many cats. Beyond that, I've volunteered extensively at Farm sanctuaries and animal shelters, gaining hands-on experience with dogs, cats, pigs, chickens, and more! Whether your pet is playful and energetic or shy and sensitive, I'm dedicated to providing calm, attentive, loving care that meets their unique needs. I know how important it is to trust someone with your animal family. You can count on me to treat your pets like my own - with respect, reliability and plenty of love. Let's connect - I'd love to meet you and your pets!

Safety, trust & environment

When you leave your pet in my care, you're not just hiring someone to feed or walk them - you're trusting me with a member of your family. I take that responsibility seriously. Creating a safe, calm, and loving environment is at the heart of everything I do. I closely follow your pet's routines, dietary needs, and any medical requirements to make sure they stay happy and healthy. Im experienced in handling a wide range or animals - including those with special needs, and I always keep a close eye on behaviot and well-being When I visit your home for your pet, I strive to create a low-stress environment where they feel safe, relaxed, and loved. From cozy resting spots to familiar routines and gentle handling, I make sure your pet feels right at home with me.

Daniel was great! He accommodated a last minute booking and was very communicative throughout the whole process and with his visits. My cat is a bit shy but seemed to warm up to him quickly. Would highly recommend!

I've known Marceline all her life and she grew up with cats and dogs and rabbits and snakes and lizards. She has a special connection with cats. We call her the Cat Whisperer but is very great with dogs as well. She is just getting her new business going and is eager to watch some pets.

Marceline took care of my dogs every weekend when my partner and I were long distance. She sent me updates and even made sure they got cuddle time after their walks. I would come home to relaxed and happy pups! I felt peace of mind leaving my boys in her care. As a fellow sitter, I highly recommend hiring her to take care of your animals!

Daniel is a fantastic pet sitter! As a lifelong animal care person, appreciation is felt for the way they make connection with pets. They are very knowledgeable about animal care and incredibly attentive to pets’ needs and well-being. They can spot any irregularities in their behavior and health and will not delay in addressing any concerns. Pets love them, and so do the owners!

Schedule

Because I have an open schedule, I'm able to dedicate focused time throughout the day for walks, feedings, play, medication and whatever unique care each pet needs. I plan my day around their routines, not the other way around - whether that means early morning visits, midday potty breaks, evening cuddle time, or sleepovers. I'm used to structuring my day with animals in mind, especially my own cats and hermit crabs. Being attentive to animals' behaviors and needs is second nature to me, and I always make sure they get plenty of love, attention, and consistency throughout the day.

As a sitter I like to know any allergies, conditions, their daily routine. I need to know how they react to strangers and other cats and/or dogs. And I must know of any triggers or behavioral issues your pay may have. And any activities or food they really enjoy!
