Veterinary Technician Pet Sitter
Pet care experience
My name is Mareena and I have been working In the veterinary field for 13 years now. I've been everything from a kennel worker to a veterinary assistant to a registered veterinary technician. I currently work full time as a veterinary technician at the wonderful Animal Care Center of Castle Pines. I have my own experience with many animals growing up. Not only did I grow up with a family dog, but I've also had rabbits, hamsters, turtles, frogs and fish. At home, I currently have a young cat named BB8 and a young turtle (about 18 years young), Crush, all of which my long-term boyfriend happily takes care of while I take care of your pets. I have loved animals for as long as I can remember and I still aspire to stay in the veterinary field into the future. I've completed my bachelor's degree in Biology at Baylor University in Texas. Sic 'em, Bears! I have recently jumped through all the hoops to officially hold my Registered Veterinary Technician license in Colorado as of 2023!
Reviews
Mareena is the best sitter we have ever had ! I can tell my dogs loved her just as much as she loved them. She’s 100% with it.
We cannot say enough nice things about Mareena. We got lucky and she only recently came out of a hiatus for new clients to watch our old man Barley. She got along great with him and took wonderful care of our house. Will book again soon!
Mareena was fantastic! She sent pictures and notes everyday and took wonderful care of our dog, cat, and home. She is very sweet and responsible!
Mareena did an excellent job watching our little corgi Max. She sent photos and notes daily. The house was clean and the linens washed when we got home. I would definitely have her watch Max again and highly recommend her. Thanks Mareena!!

Safety, trust & environment
I will always check in on your pet during my lunch break as long as you are within my service range. Not only will I be caring for you pet in an environment they are comfortable in, but I’ll also provide security of having someone in and caring for your house while you’re away!
Information Mareena S. would like to know about your pet
I would like to know if there are any medical or behavioral conditions I should be aware of. It's also useful for me to know any of your usual routines that your pet is used to so I can try my best to follow those as well. I want your pets to be as comfortable as possible while you are away. I am always thrilled with owners who leave me their pets’ veterinary contact information. If you want to go above and beyond, calling your vet to let them know that you authorize me to watch your pets and/or seek veterinary care while you’re away is amazing. You can also leave a small note with me to be able to take if they do need to be seen by a vet.
A typical day
Your pet will enjoy plenty of play time as well as cuddles when they want it! We can go on walks as often as 2-3 times a day.
