Moving at the speed of Dog!

Pet care experience

I am back from Japan and now in VA!! (I am a navy wife and dog walking mama.. I have 19 years experience with dogs and cats, 4 years with bunnies, 5 years experience with sugar gliders, bearded dragons, iguanas, water dragons, crested geckos , birds, tarantulas and fish( NOT salt water tanks) .From having my own, volunteering at shelters and pet sitting for friends, coworkers and family . I have a deep love for all animals especially for dogs. Your best friend will have a ball! Doing any activity your best friend loves! I also send videos and pictures! I have lots of experience with special needs pets ,pets that need medication and I can also administer pet CPR .. I can't wait to meet your furry members of the family !!! I'm a stay at home mom, so my schedule is pretty open. I always do a meet and greet before I agree to a booking. I bring a notepad, I ask daily routines, how much food they eat, etc ; to make sure that the only thing different in your pet's life is that you are temporarily away ,I want to make them as comfortable as possible💜 with normal routines.

Such a great help! I enjoy how thorough and thoughtful you were with my guinea pigs! Glad you were able to help out and will definitely follow up next time I'm need of a pet sitter.

Marie was very attentive and communicative and took great care of my dog while I was away. She asked good questions, took the time to meet my dog before I left, and took lots of pictures. I would definitely recommend her as a reliable and responsible dog sitter!

Marie did a wonderful job with my boys and is extremely conscientious and caring! The boys and I look forward to having her back again soon to doggie sit!
