I enjoy long walks and playtime

Pet care experience

I began providing dog sitting, walking, and massage therapy eleven years ago and just love being able to help out furry friends while their owners are at work or on vacation. As a runner myself, I enjoy taking long walks throughout the day and am also willing to take your dog for a short or long run too. Dogs I spend time with enjoy massage therapy at the end of their walks and runs. Senior dogs particularly love me, as I help them relieve some arthritic and muscle tension, often acquired by older pups. I am available on weekdays and most weekends and can either make periodic stop-in visits throughout the day or house sit while dog sitting your furry family friend. Let me know what your family's needs are and I will happily work to cater to them.

Our dog instantly loved Marcia. She was also flexible with time and quick with her responses. We can’t recommend Marcia enough!

Marcia is excellent. Great communication, pictures of our dog daily and long and frequent walks. She truly enjoys caring for Sweetie and it shows. She cleaned Sweetie’s crusted eyes (allergies) over several days , no small accomplishment. And she fine tuned Sweetie’s diet when some of the food we had left did not agree with her. We couldnt have been happier with the state we found our dog (and house) in when we came back from vacation.

Marcia is a responsible, caring and dedicated individual. These qualities along with her love for animals would make Marcia a great sitter for any dog.

Marcia posesses many skills required to be an axceptional dog walker. She is genuine, friendly, outgoing, organized, trustworthy and always in tune with the needs of others. I have seen her express her love for animals on many occasions and I would be thrilled to leave my pup in the hands of such a loving young woman!
