Pet care experience

A Helping Hand for a Paw in Need

Hi there! My name is Mari and I love all kinds of pets. Started volunteering at animal shelters since the age of 15 before my parents allowed me to have a dog of my own. I have done everything from walks, feedings, cleanings, and oral medication administration. Mostly worked caring for cats and dogs but have cared for some birds and even a friend's chinchilla once before. Currently volunteering at the Fort Campbell Stray Animal Facility. Friends, family, and coworkers have relied on me for pet care when trips come up. I have seven cats under my care at the moment. Two I adopted, three the cat distribution system gave me, and two I foster.

Safety, trust & environment

I will ensure that your pets are well cared for by providing everything they could possibly need. Food, fresh water, and a pal to play with. From my volunteer experience I am really great with administering oral medication if needed. Daily photo updates! Owners can request more photos and I'll gladly comply.

Mari is great! She always sends lots of pictures and stays the entire time requested. My dogs are always happy with her.

Mari was such and exceptional and caring caretaker for my two cats! She made sure to give each cat individualized attention and she was very informative in regards to helping me look for better quality food and snacks for my cats. I appreciated her wisdom and attention. 10/10

Marileny is what I would see if I look up loving & awesome person in the dictionary. She's had several pets who are her world and she would go above and beyond to keep them safe, healthy and happy. Even through my own experience of getting a pet for the first time she was right there by my side. She anticipated my worries and had answers for all of my questions plus my dog loves her, and I wouldn't trust anyone else but her with any of my pets. Plus she loves photography, and she's great at it, so I never missed out on the exciting/ quirky moments my dog had!

Schedule

I am an online student with a very flexible schedule that allows for a variety of services ranging from the short 30-60 min drop-in care to the longer walks and house sitting needs. Always happy to arrange a meet and greet! Typically, I am available every day from 8am to 7pm for meet and greets. I know work schedules can get in the way so if you need a specific time that does not fall into that range, let me know and we can go from there. In-person meet and greets can be scheduled at client homes or a neutral location.

Cats
0 to 15 lbs
16 to 40 lbs
41 to 100 lbs
over 101 lbs
Mari can host up to 2 drop-ins per day
Let me know if your dog/cat has specific tendencies that I should be aware of. Are they comfortable being around other animals, or are they on the shy side?
