Professional dog-lover at your service ! 🫡

Pet care experience

I’m an animal osteopath and I've always loved dogs! Growing up with my own dog for 15 years and then volunteering at an animal shelter for 3 years has enabled me to connect with dogs of different size, age, disability and temperament. I studied animals for 5 years in an osteopathy school and have been working with animals ever since. I've worked with: cats, dogs, rabbits, horses, ferrets, and even farm animals. My osteopathy background means I’m extra attentive to your pet’s comfort and mobility, and can notice subtle signs of discomfort or changes in behavior. If I notice anything off, I would make sure to notify you. If you’re new to rover, you can get 15£ off your first booking using this promo code : MARIEB93624

Marie has been so good with our little pup Ralph. Despite him being so giddy and not believing in personal space (😁) she was amazing with him. She popped in on him a couple of times for us while we were out all day at a wedding, to let him out for a wee, to feed him and to play and give him cuddles and belly rubs. She’s a lovely person and will love your pet like her own. Thanks so much Marie, Ralph loved you popping in on him. We will definitely be rebooking soon! Thank you ❤️

Marie was so communicative when looking after out 2 cats. We felt so at ease being away for the weekend knowing marie was checking in on them. Would absolutely recommend her and wouldn't hesitate to go back to marie in future.

My sweet furries had the pleasure to be cared for by Marie during some pleasant journeys I did abroad. As far as my dog is concerned it is an extreme joy to be with Marie if I refer to her wagging tail and excitation as soon as she detects her presence.!🤩 The cats are simply melting under her cuddles and love the games she plays with them! Love and happiness!🤗 As for myself, the human of the house, I know my furballs are in safe hands whatever might happen, Marie is a very wise person… Thank you and see you soon Marie! 😃

Marie took care of my cat during two weeks while I was away. At first I was a bit worried because my cat is quite savage with strangers and really fearful when in another environnement than her home. I felt sorry for my cat just as much as for Marie. But I've been happily surprised to see that everything went just fine. Marie sent me some news and pictures everyday, and in a matter of a couple days, my cat was perfectly fine with Marie at her place. Marie has been really caring and careful with my cat's needs and security, never leaving an window open or unattended, always checking if she ate, drank and went to the litterbox, playing with her. I highly recommand Marie as a petsitter !

My pet sitting services are adaptable to your and your pet’s needs. I’m happy to meet you and your pet before starting the service so that we can have a chat. My services: 🦮| Dog walking: I will pick up your dog at your address, and go for a 30' walk around your neighbourhood, if there's a park, we'll go to the park or if you have any specific route I'll be happy to follow it. If you're used to running with your dog it's also a possibility, just let me know in advance. 🚶‍♀️‍➡️| Drop-ins: I will come to your house for a full 30', make sure your pet has food, water, play-time, short potty-time if needed (doesn't replace a walk), I can administer medication if needed, water plants, check-up on any other small critter. 🐶| Doggy day care: I accept pets at my house as long as they are cat-friendly and that you're ok for your dog to be potentially separated in an extra room if needed. During the day we will alternate between play-time in the back yard (well-fenced), walks in the reserve next to the house, mental stimulating games at home and of course, naps. 🏠| House-sitting: I do not offer overnight stay at your house, but I can be present for up to 7h in the day (timings may vary depending on your location, to be discussed during a meet and greet). During that time, I will take full care of your pet as well as any small house necessities.
