30% bookings with photo updates

Skills

10 years of experience
Oral medication administration

Senior dog experience

Safety, trust & environment

I make sure to pay great attention to any instructions that are left by the owner, to make sure the pets routine needs are properly met. I make it a point to send updates and pictures of the pets to the owners, and ensure good communication during the dogsitting/catsitting. I reccomend and validate having an in home camera or "nanny cam" if i am watching your animals in your home. This is for your comfort and safety and I am in full support of that.

Information Marie C. would like to know about your pet

Let me know of any allergies, any ailments or areas on the animals body that are sensitive to touch, and I also like to encourage awareness of the anal glands, and making sure they are expressed, especially if your dog has history of infected anal glands.

A typical day

I am big on allowing a dog to exert their energy and use their senses in exploration. Taking them on long walks, playing with their ball if theyre a ball dog, and making sure they get all the run and play they need. I also love doing a snuffle mat with treats as long as the owner is okay with this. As well as cats, I will ensure a good amount of play time with their toys. If you have a cat that uses a harness and is taken outside, I am absolutely okay with doing that!

Pet care experience

Dogs and cats have been in my life since I was a child and I couldn't imagine my life without them. I have always had a passion to take care of animals and give them an abundance of love. I have experience caring (bathing, walking, feeding) for the pets of family members, neighbors, and friends, and really want to help many others. I also have a lot of experience caring for senior dogs/senior cats, as well as puppies and kittens!!!! I promise to provide safety, care, and love for your furr babies.

Marie is the most kindest person ever! She went above and beyond when watching my cat and dog. She watched them for 2 weeks in my home. She checked in daily, sent pictures and videos of both of them. Both of the animals love her. I will definitely continue to use her for any services I need

Marie is a wonderful pet sitter! She has cared for my two large breed dogs on many occasions through out the last 7 years. She has cared for them in her home, as well as in my home and they absolutely LOVE her. With my dogs she is very attentive, responsible, loving, and cares deeply for them as if they are her own. When they are in her care I know they will be walked daily, given loads of attention, and their eating schedule is followed perfectly! My dogs can get anxious when we are away, but Marie helps them feel at ease every single time and they get excited to see her. I highly recommend Marie if you are looking for a true animal lover, who you can genuinely trust to provide the most quality care for your pet.

Marie has cared for our two small dogs (a Maltipoo and a Bichon Frise) in her home twice now, both times for a full week, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. She handled all of their medical needs and special dietary requirements with great attention to detail, which gave us real peace of mind while we were away. She kept in consistent contact, sending updates and photos throughout each stay so we always knew how they were doing. It was clear our dogs were receiving plenty of love, attention, and regular walks, along with excellent overall care. We would confidently recommend Marie for animals of any size. It’s obvious she doesn’t just watch pets—she genuinely cares for them and treats them like her own.
