Pet care experience

Animals are my greatest love!

I've grown up in a countryside surrounded by pets and animals of all kind. Since I was a child I adored and took care of our fur friends, treating them like part of a family. Often taking care of friends and family's pets, trying to teach them some tricks and making sure they getting all the attention, quality time and entertainment they need. I've also volunteered in Thailand in rescued animals sanctuary where I cared daily for rescued dogs, cats and wild animals. It included feeding, walking, cleaning, playing, showering and socializing puppies. Some of these animals were disabled or had special needs so I had to have a very individual approach to every single one.

Safety, trust & environment

While doing walks with dogs or pet sitting at home I always consider their health and needs, also owners advices/tips while choosing if this should be more of an active or peaceful time for older/ill/disabled pets. Every pet is different so I have individual approach to each one I get to know and care for. I trust that the owner will provide all the necessary information when trusting me with their cat/dog, so I can care for them as best as I can considering their health, needs and preferences.

Marcelina looked after my elderly Pug on many occasions while I was working long 12-hour shifts, and I always felt completely at ease knowing he was in her care. Because of his age and health issues, he needed someone who was patient, attentive, and able to recognise when he needed extra comfort or a slower pace. Marcelina made sure he was fed on time, had fresh water, went outside for gentle walks and toilet breaks, and received plenty of love and attention throughout the day. She always took the time to keep him company, play with him when he felt up to it, and make sure he was comfortable and relaxed. It was clear that she genuinely cared about his wellbeing and treated him like her own pet. Marcelina is kind, trustworthy, and dependable. Knowing she was looking after my dog gave me real peace of mind during long workdays. I would happily recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and responsible dog walker or pet sitter.

I've trusted Marcelina to care for my Golden Retriever many times, and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter or dog walker. She has regularly taken my dog for walks, spent time playing with her, and made sure she was happy, exercised, and well looked after. Whenever my family has been away, Marcelina has cared for her in every aspect, including feeding, providing fresh water, giving her plenty of attention, and making sure she felt safe and comfortable. When my Golden Retriever had a litter of puppies, Marcelina was also a huge help. She spent time handling and socialising the puppies, playing with them, helping them become comfortable around people, and assisting with their daily care. She was always patient, gentle, and attentive to both the puppies and their mother. Marcelina has a genuine love for animals, and it really shows in the way she interacts with them. She is trustworthy, responsible, and treats every pet as if it were her own. I would happily recommend her to anyone looking for someone to care for their pets.

I recently left my British short hair cat Zara in the very safe hands of Marcelina while I was in the process of moving house. As I was without a home for a few weeks Zara needed a temporary place to stay. Marcelina provided this for her in the best way, she was made to feel very welcome and given plenty of fuss, Zara seemed to like this and appeared very stress free which was very important. Marcelina clearly has a passion and knowledge for animals and their needs, always putting them first. I will recommend to everyone and I will also use her again in the future if needed
