Highlights
Pet care experience
Flexible Schedule, Cats & Dogs!
I grew up with a pug and a golden retriever at my mom’s house and 2 cats at my dad’s house. My mother now has a cavapoo so I am very comfortable with different sizes and breeds of dogs and cats. I am very attentive and understanding of different dogs needs. For dogs that have boundless energy, I love taking them on long walks and giving them exercise. For older or more sedentary dogs, my home is very cozy and they will be very comfortable. Unfortunately, I cannot have a dog of my own right now since I travel frequently so the next best case scenario is being able to take care of others while I am home. I currently live in an apartment. I am also available for traveling sitting if you prefer I stay in your home. Please note that I grew up in New York City so I have a lot of comfort walking around in the city with dogs. I know how to keep them safe in a busy city!
Qualifications
Ratings and reviews
Marie was very responsive and provided frequent updates of my spoiled brat dog enjoying her Chelsea staycation. Five stars; no notes.
Marie was absolutely fantastic with our French bulldog, Kevin. From the start, communication was clear and easy, and it was obvious she genuinely cares about the dogs she watches. Kevin can be a bit particular, and Marie handled him with patience, attention, and lots of love. We got regular updates and photos, which gave us total peace of mind while we were away. Kevin came home happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. We wouldn’t hesitate to book with Marie again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, thoughtful sitter.
Marie took great care of Walli including giving him daily antibiotics and other medicine. She was communicative, responsive, and Walli came back very happy!
Marie was great, as always! Checkers was excited to see her. Definitely recommend!
We had to find a last minte booking for doggy day care for our 6 year old aussie and Marie was available and accommodating. She took great care of our dog and we would definitely book her again
Marie was excellent. It was clear that Checkers felt calm around her right away. Great communication, updates, and pictures. Took Checkers for a nice walk. All around amazing - highly recommend to anyone!

Schedule
I have a flexible remote job, so I am available throughout the day (including the work mornings and afternoons) to be able to take your pets for a walk!
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I treat each animal as if they were my own. While walking dogs, I ensure that the proper precautions are being taken to ensure their safety. Including, but not limited to, checking for cars before crossing and keeping an eye out for anything on the street that the dog may want to eat and needs to be avoided. I also am very aware of any other dogs that we may encounter on our walk that may be aggressive or need to be avoided.
A typical day
I love to be able to play with your pets! Whether that means going on a long walk so they can enjoy the fresh air and smells or taking them to a dog park that you recommend for them!
