Gentle Care for Your Pets

Pet care experience

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 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.
