Dog's best friend!
Pet care experience
All my life I’ve had a dog as a family companion (so 27 years there!). I have personal experience training and working with high anxiety and behavioral dogs as our last family dog was a rescue and required special care. I am an avid volunteer and since high school have worked at Purrfect Pals cat shelter as an adoption counselor, the Pacific Science Center in animal care, and currently at the Seattle Animal Shelter working to socialize some of their critters (bunnies, etc.). I also studied animal behavior and psychology at the University of Washington, and currently work at North Seattle Veterinary Hospital. I have a lot of dog sitting experience and even dog sat for two of my professors, who are still repeat clients. I've dog sat for many family members and all shapes and sizes of dogs, but have the most hands on experience with dogs 40lbs and up. So I welcome our bigger furry friends! I am very experienced with topical, oral, and injectable medications for dogs and cats (if needed). I enjoy cycling as my main mode of transportation and one of my favorite activities is hiking and always jump at the chance to bring a furry friend along. Please reach out to me if you think I'd be a good fit. I'd love to meet you and your pet!
Reviews
Marianne is an excellent pet sitter. Great with our dog and cat, great communication (with pics of our fur babies) while we were away and house perfect upon return. Will definitely use her again.
Marianne is an incredible sitter and she does such an amazing job taking care of our dog, Harper. We trust her so much and continue to go to her whenever we need to go away. We can’t thank her enough for the wonderful job she does with Harper and you can just tell Harper loves spending time with her!
Marianne has dropped in on our two dogs for well over a year now. She is the best! She is always responsive and I know our dogs are in good hands with her while we're gone. We always check if she is available first, and dont see any reason why we wouldn't continue that for many more years to come. I would definitely reccomend her to anyone.
Marianne is amazing! Our favorite dog sitter.

A typical day
I love getting outdoors with a furry companion! We might go for a walk in Gas Works Park, or if your pup is into it and well-socialized we could hit the dog park and make new friends. If there’s a game on we could go to Norm’s Doggie Bar in Fremont and cheer for the Seahawks! Then we’ll head home for a nap and a snack.
