Highlights
Pet care experience
Vacation destination for your pet ☺
I raised and trained my 5-year-old deaf Aussie, Kyuupi, who loves making new friends! She is crate trained, potty trained, and knows ASL/hand signals. I’ve grown up around many puppies and dogs since I was 4. Even now, I can’t imagine life without the company of a dog! I’m also familiar with taking care of senior dogs from personal experience with pet sitting for family and friends. I grew up with a toy German Spitz who, unfortunately, passed away earlier this year at 15 years old. He lived a long and comfortable life. 🕊️🥰🤍

Ratings and reviews
Nami had a lot of fun. They went for walk and to the doggy park. Marianne is extremely responsive polite and gentle. We definitely recommend her!
Marianne was awesome! She walked Aqua for thirty minutes over scheduled time which was so generous of her. She was extremely patient and playful with Aqua. She was very observant of her behavior and found solutions to fit Aqua’s needs. We can’t wait to work with her again!
Marianne is such a wonderful person. From the moment I met her and her partner when I brought my adorable Pomsky, I instantly felt confident that my beloved pet would be in great hands with them. I also had the pleasure of meeting Kyuupi, her charming Australian shepherd. I'm truly impressed by how she lovingly cares for her deaf dogs and teaches Kyuupi sign language so they can communicate easily. Their home was spotless and beautifully organized, which made me feel completely at ease leaving my pup to stay at their warm and lovely home. I suggest reaching out to them early because their schedule fills up quickly with other pups, but fortunately, they agreed to my request.
Marianne is a deeply compassionate and responsible pet owner who goes above and beyond to ensure the well-being of every dog in her care. She has firsthand experience caring for her own Australian Shepherd, who is deaf that requires exceptional patience, attention, and understanding. Watching how she communicates with and cares for her dog is truly inspiring. she takes the time to understand them, meet their unique needs, and build trust. She enrolled her to obedience class tailored to deaf to ensure better care and understanding of her own dog. In addition, she is welcoming to have our own dog whenever we visit her. Her dog plays well with our dog. Her calm and gentle nature makes dogs feel safe and loved, and her reliability gives owners complete peace of mind. Marianne is a great person to entrust your pets under her care.
Calendar and availability
Schedule
I’m fully available to take care of your pet as I do with my own! I go on at least 5 walks every day with Kyuupi either around the neighborhood or a nearby park.

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
Kyuupi and I love to visit nearby parks to walk, play fetch, and meet other dogs. I also take her on multiple walks and potty stops every day. Lately, we’ve really been into hiking and camping as well! We also love to make new friends everywhere we go. If needed, I have a medium sized crate available along with comfy blankets, food/water bowls, and plenty of toys and space to roam around the apartment. You are also more than welcome to bring anything you like, such as a blanket or a sweater with your scent, to make your pet more comfortable during their stay. 🥰 Please let me know if your pet needs any special treatment and/or assistance.

A typical day
I have puzzles and toys for your pet to exercise them both physically and mentally! I also live near several parks and safe neighborhoods to take your pet on multiple walks. I usually wake up at 7-8 am to eat breakfast/feed Kyuupi/go on a walk. During the day, I’m normally at home other than when I need to run errands or go with Kyuupi for a park visit or an adventure. I end the day with a leisure walk around the neighborhood before heading to bed with Kyuupi keeping our feet warm. ☺️😂

- Please let me know if your pet has any special dietary needs, allergies, feeding preferences (alone, in crate, or none), temperament, etc. I would love to also get to know your pet better— if they are friendly with other dogs and with people. We can also do a meet-and-greet if you’d like to make sure that Kyuupi will get along with your pet. The more info the better so I can give your pet the best care! 😁
