Pet care experience
I have taken care of dogs and cats since I was very young. Since 2017 I have volunteered with a dog rescue through fostering, medical transport, and adoption events.
Reviews
Marie is an outstanding sitter. Dottie is an undersocialized rescue dog who never learned to play. Marie helped Dottie learn to romp with Doug, her dog and to chase a tennis ball. Dottie also learned to descend an open staircase, something she had previously been afraid to do. Marie took very good care of Dottie, especially making sure she got her twice daily doses of medication. She is a warm and loving caregiver and we will definitely use her service in the future.
Marie did a great job in caring for my 18-year-old cat. She had a private room in her home for my pet and would spend time daily with her. Her photos and communication did a lot to keep me from worrying. Thank you, Marie.
Marie was so wonderful with our Jocko! We needed to pick him up a little later than originally planned and she was super accommodating. We will definitely be booking with her again!
Marie was fabulous! We felt really comfortable leaving our dog Rowdy with her. She has a fenced in back yard which is wonderful for active puppies! We got lots of updates and pictures. We definitely recommend Marie!

Safety, trust & environment
I have found success with private boarding vs pack boarding. When your beloved pet stays with me they get my undivided attention and are the only guests in my home. Sometimes there is a day or two overlap but I am able to keep dogs separate if they need to be and if dogs enjoy playtime together, they do so with my supervision. I also really love drop in visits at a pets home as this is the most stress free environment for animals. I will spend extra time giving them the attention they deserve in the comfort of their own home. I am close to the airport and offer guests the ability to park in my driveway while they are away to avoid the expensive airport fees. Uber is inexpensive and available. I also offer drop and pick up as my schedule allows. I also live in walking distance to Vista Falls veterinary hospital, should your fur baby need assistance while you are away.

Information Marie L. would like to know about your pet
Let me know if your dog has any special needs. I have experience with giving dogs oral medications and injections such as insulin. Please let me know how your dog does with other animals.
A typical day
I love taking dogs on walks to the Arboretum and Biltmore House Grounds which I have annual passes for both. Many trails in both places to explore. Animals that need to stay at home in their yard or my yard get lots of exercise with toys and playing.
