Information Marianne P. would like to know about your pet

We prefer dogs that are already potty trained, under 100 pounds and are good around other dogs since we have one ourselves. For a week's or longer stay, we recommend your fur baby have been bathe or groomed before drop off. Why you ask? This helps keep them feeling comfortable and keeps my home environment clean and fresh for their long visit. Thank you so much for understanding, and let me know if you need any local groomer recommendations! Lastly, please let us know if your baby needs to take medicine or has special needs.

A typical day

We love to play ball, go for walks, quick car rides to the lake or parks (as long as your furbaby is allowed to) or snuggles on the couch, yes it is allowed in our home :).

Love, Walks & Belly Rubs

Pet care experience

Our dogs have been our best friends for 20 years. We give them the treatment they deserve such as tons of pampering, love and care! We are retirees looking to fill our days and as pet lovers we decided we should share that time and love to other furbabies! We had three beautiful Golden Retrievers, all now in doggie heaven ♡ We currently have a 4 year old, playful, male Goldendoodle, an instant playmate to your furbaby! We have a fenced yard and we live in a quiet neighborhood, close to parks and a lake nearby to take them walking!

This is our second time booking with Marianne, and we love her. They all do so great with Zoe. We look forward to booking with her again!

I couldn't speak higher of the love and dedication they treat my dog with. They are nothing but kind and compassionate I highly recommend them to anyone looking for a sitter. My Winnie is always excited when she knows she gets to spend the day with them. Five stars isn't enough.

Marianne and her husband clearly love dogs and have so much love and attention to give, which my pooch received. They took him al kinds of fun places around town, and gave him plenty of snuggles. They even included him in a bday treat for their doodle! Easy going, clear communication and they provided lots of photos. We knew our boy was having a blast while we were gone!

Marianne and her family were wonderful with our dog Zoe. I just know she had a great time going on walks and cuddling on the couch. She was very well loved and cared for. We got regular updates, and we are excited to have Zoe stay with them again in a few weeks. Highly recommend!!!! =)
