Pet care experience

Going away? I can walk, sit or stay

I've taken care of animals of all kinds and ages my whole life; puppies to senior dogs and kittens to cats. I've also owned exotic animals such as parrots, rabbits and rodents. I am experienced in administering oral and subcutaneous medications to cats and dogs. I worked as a veterinary assistant and technician previously and gained tremendous experience learning animal behavior and care. Plus, I will love your babies like they are my own!

Safety, trust & environment

My yard is not fenced but there are plenty of green spaces to walk to give on leash exercise. I live with 2 cats that are dog friendly.

Marcia is simply the best—there’s a reason we keep coming back to her again and again. Finding someone you trust with your pets (and your home) is no small thing, and with Marcia, that trust comes easily. She is reliable, attentive, and genuinely caring, and it shows in every interaction.

Marcia rescued us. We had a last minute need for a dog sitter and Marcia came through! Our pups really liked her. We received pics of our dogs with every visit along with an update on their behavior. We were really relieved to have our babes in such capable hands.

My third time using Marcia as a sitter for my German shepherd. I have nothing but great things to say. She is always timely when coming by my home and provides plenty of pictures and detailed updates. Highly recommend using her.
