Former Non-profit Dog Rescue Worker
Pet care experience
I grew up on a non-profit (501c3) dog rescue located in Faison, NC. We are called Whiskering Pines Animal Sanctuary and we do not currently have a website due to heightened concerns of animal abandonment around our area. We see a high traffic of dogs of all shapes and sizes with a variety of different needs. We have operated since 2012 and recently obtained our 501c3 status. We work closely with our county and surround county animal shelters. I am currently enrolled in school at Appalachian State and would like to keep animal care prevalent in my life in some way.
About Marian G.

Skills
Safety, trust & environment
Adequate food, water, exercise, and human engagement. I believe most animals are capable of indicating needs well and it is my job as a caretaker to make sure those needs are met in the absence of the owner.
Home
Information Marian G. would like to know about your pet
If your pet has any history of aggression or bite history I would like to be informed, regardless of the severity of the incident. This will not impact my decision to watch you pet! I would just like a heads up. If your pet has any unique characteristics such as fence jumping or opening doors I would also like to be informed. Lastly, any sort of dietary restriction as I will have treats!
A typical day
I love to engage with all types of dogs. This can take the form of a walk, park visit, fetch, agility, and interactive toys such as kongs. Huge plus if my client has a fenced in yard!
