Pet care experience

Gentle Care for Your Pets

Hello! My name is Marielle and I have many years of experience caring for both cats and dogs, I also have experience with disabled pets. My last pet, a dog named Nora, had a degenerative spinal disease which made her slowly lose the use of her back legs. We had a harness for her back legs to assist her on walks, and towards the end helped her with expelling her bladder. I have given pills and eye ointments to both cats and dogs, and have experience with pets with incontinence issues. I have bathed cats and dogs, and bathed dogs who have been skunked! Whichever type of care your animal may need, reach out to me and we can discuss.

We had a wonderful experience with Marielle. From our initial get‑to‑know‑you video call, it was clear how thoughtful, organized, and easy to work with she is. Throughout Journey’s stay, Marielle was consistently responsive and sent daily photos and updates, which gave us peace of mind. She is responsible, caring, and attentive, everything you hope for in someone watching your dog. We always felt that Journey was safe, comfortable, and genuinely cared for while in her home. We would happily book with Marielle again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, reliable sitter.

Marielle has become a mainstay for us and our dog Captain. She’s communicative, takes great care of our dog, and always leaves our home clean. We highly recommend her!

Marielle is wonderful! Communicative, professional, friendly, and easy to coordinate with. She was attentive to our dog's specific needs and schedule and sent regular updates and photos while we were away.

Safety, trust & environment

I have a very large fenced yard at my home and can board your dog if needed. If your pet uses a crate and you would like me to board them at my house, the crate would need to be provided. I currently have no pets of my own at home.

A typical day

A typical day with your pet and I would be going on a morning walk, breakfast and cuddles/play. In the evenings we’d hang out, have dinner, and then take another walk before bed. Of course if your pet has special games they like to play, or favorite toys, let me know!
