Experienced pet care in your home
Pet care experience
I have cared for pets of all kinds( birds, reptiles, small exotics, cats and dogs) for my whole life. Professionally I have worked with animals since I was 18- at a pet store, as a zookeeper, at an animal shelter and currently as a vet assistant. I am comfortable administering medications of all kinds as well as subcutaneous fluids to a wide variety of species. Shy or spicy pets are my favorite to win over.
Reviews
Marie has been absolutely amazing with watching our two cats for us over the last year! Both cats are always so happy to see her, and she is so attentive and does a great job of taking such good care of them. It is such a comfort and reassurance to know that they'll be well cared for in her hands when we are on travel. Thank you, Marie!
Marie has dog sat for me several times and has been there for the loss of one dog and was there to welcome my new dogs. When she first started sitting for me i had two loving pitbulls. One was a bit shy of strangers, but Marie came in and had an immediate connection with my boy. I unfortunately lost him to cancer and ended up with a feisty Chihuahua who really took awhile to warm up to people. That was NOT the case with Marie. She and Junior made fast friends. Dogs just know good people. I had zero worries while i was away and she was watching my pups. My dogs also needed medications, which she is very familiar with. If you want someone that is experienced and loves ALL animals, please consider giving Marie a call. You will not regret it.
Marie has lots of experience taking care of pets and working as a vet tech. She always takes great care of my cat Stewie. She plays with him and sends pictures.
We recommend Marie's pet sitting services without reservation. When we travel, she watches our two cats (one of whom has special medical needs), and has been our go-to sitter for 3 years or so. She keeps us informed throughout her visits, sharing great photos of the animals. Once there was a problem with one of our windows -- she alerted us and found a solution. She's honest, intelligent, great with animals, and reliable. You can trust her to care for your animals and keep an eye on your home.
About Marie B.
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
I care for pets in your home and follow the safety instructions that you provide. For dog walking I always carry a second leash just in case. For cats- I double and triple check before I enter or leave to make sure your friend can’t sneak by!
Information Marie B. would like to know about your pet
Please let me know if your pet has any behavioral or medical issues ahead of time. I am generally comfortable and willing to work with challenging pets but I absolutely need to know ahead of time so that I can have a plan in place for everyone’s comfort and safety.
A typical day
This will depend on your pet! Anything from playing with toys or scattering treats for cats to food games, sniff walks and exploration for dogs! I will also try to follow their usual routine as much as possible.
