Pet care experience
Animal lover and friend to all!
Hi! I'm Marianne, and I've been an animal lover for as long as I can remember. I grew up in a home with a beagle and a cat, so caring for pets has always been a natural part of my life. These days, I'm a proud dog aunt to my brother's yellow Labrador Retriever, Homer (featured in my profile picture!), and I love spending time with him whenever I can. For more than 10 years, I worked as an Activities Director in senior living communities, where one of my favorite parts of the job was implementing pet therapy programs. I had the privilege of bringing therapy dogs and rabbits into our communities, and I saw firsthand the joy, comfort, and connection that animals provide. I'm dependable, patient, and attentive, and I take the time to get to know each pet's unique personality and routine. Whether your pet loves long walks, playtime, cuddles on the couch, or simply having someone nearby, I'll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I'm comfortable following detailed care instructions, maintaining feeding schedules, and making sure your pet gets the exercise, attention, and affection they deserve. Your pet's safety and well-being will always be my top priority. I pride myself on being reliable and communicative, and I'll keep you updated with plenty of photos and messages so you can relax knowing your furry family member is in good hands. I can't wait to meet you and your pets!

Ratings and reviews
Mari was fantastic!! She was great at sending us daily updates with pics. Both of our dogs immediately were comfortable with her and stayed by her side. When we got home house was clean and she even replaced our flowers with fresh ones.


Marianne is very impressive. I felt totally confident leaving my puppy with her. She is kind, classy and obviously loves animals. My puppy was so happy to see her after she had stopped to introduce herself the day before, which says a lot about the energy she has, especially when relating to my dog. If I had a need for assistance with my dog, Maddie, I will contact you immediately to have her come back. Very nice , intellegent lady . Like her a lot. Ginny Colvin
I would like to introduce to you, Marianne, the kindest gal I know. She always welcomes the chance to make furry friends on our walks together. I know for a fact that ALL the pups want to be Mari's friend!!
