I’m a stay at home dog mom, empty nester who loves walking my black lab around La Jolla Shores three to four times a day. He’s slowing down now that he’s a senior and I’m looking to keep up my steps. Let me take care of you dog and incorporate them into my daily routine or start a new one with your fur baby.

Safety, trust & environment

I’m located in the heart of La Jolla Shores with great beach access when allowed on beach. This neighborhood is perfect for walking. If allowed, a walk to Starbs for a pup cup is an option and I know all the great treat stops, if allowed by owner. My black lab is great with other dogs and very friendly.

Information Marcia F. would like to know about your pet

Dogs are very special to me, especially large breeds. My experience has been with German Shepards and Labs, but I have taken great care of Chihuahuas, Jack Russels and mixed breeds. All breeds are special and all deserve special care and patience. I've learned to listen to the dogs cues and work with their needs.

A typical day

AM/PM walks on beach, Starbs pup cup walks, Hike around Scripps or UCSD, Drop off/Pick ups to groomer (we love PetSmart Grooming). Mostly long walks around La Jolla.

Pet care experience

Hi, I'm Marcy! Dogs have been a part of my life since birth. Growing up with dogs and later in life owning a few dogs, I’ve always had a passion for pet care. I’ve been lucky enough to own three German Shepherds well into their teen years and currently own a senior black lab. New to Rover, but not new to care for pets.
