I’m so happy to recommend Marielle as a dog sitter. She is honestly one of the biggest animal lovers I know. Animals aren’t just something she likes — they are a huge part of her life. She has a husky–malamute mix named Nanook, whom she rescued off the street. She didn’t just take him in — she completely committed to him. She gave him a safe, loving home and put in the time and patience to train him properly. The way Nanook looks at her says it all — he absolutely adores her. He’s well-behaved, happy, and clearly feels secure and loved. Marielle is incredibly caring, responsible, and attentive. She naturally understands animals and treats them with so much kindness and respect. She has taken care of numerous friends' dogs. On top of that, she regularly volunteers at stables taking care of horses, which shows how comfortable and confident she is around animals of all sizes. I would trust her with any pet without hesitation. Anyone who leaves their dog with Marielle can feel completely at ease knowing they’re in loving and capable hands.
