Safety, trust & environment
I strive to build a trusting relationship with all dogs I interact with. I like to incorporate “sniffy” walks to allow dogs a chance to explore and engage their senses.
Information Marianne S. would like to know about your pet
Please let me know if your dog has any specific needs or quirks that I should be aware of. I am experienced with dogs with separation anxiety and will strive to create a safe and loving environment for your dog.
A typical day
I will provide plenty of playtime with toys as well as enrichment activities such as dog puzzles. I will promote a balance of calm relaxing time and playful time.

Pet care experience
I have always had dogs in my life from family dogs to favorite neighborhood dogs. After adopting our dog Rory in 2022, I came to truly understand the dedication that goes into caring for a dog and the many benefits of having such a wonderful companion. I am committed to bringing the same patience and attention to every pup I care for. I am experienced with separation anxiety and know the importance of being sure your dog feels safe and secure while you are out.
Reviews
Thank you Marianne! All the updates I got were great and Layla looked happy and content. I had total peace of mind during my trip that my dog was well taken care of.
We discovered Marianne at the last minute right before a holiday trip. She was responsive, prompt, and communicative throughout. Each drop-in was well documented. Excellent experience. We will definitely rebook!
Marianne is my neighbor and a true animal lover! It’s very clear how caring and attentive she is with dogs and other pets. She has her own sweet dog named Rory who is incredibly friendly and gets along beautifully with other dogs. Rory and my dog, Layla, play well together, and I’ve always been impressed by how happy and well cared for Rory is. Marianne and her husband are often out walking her. I’m personally using Marianne’s services for my own dog while my family is in Europe this summer, which says a lot about the trust I have in her. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, responsible dog sitter.
Marianne is a wonderful dog owner and dog friend :) Her dog Rory receives star treatment with abundant walks, treats, and love. Marianne has also cared for my dog Peaches during play dates. She is attentive to their needs, and clearly a lover of our furry companions.
