Positive, Reliable & Energetic

Pet care experience

A love for animals brings me here, ready to help watch your pets while you are away or just simply need a break! A lifelong pet owner, I'm happy to be with your dog or cat and provide any special requirements needed. I love being outdoors so if your pet likes to spend some time on long walks or hikes, we'll be sure to have a great time. If not, we can keep it low-key too! :)

So happy we booked Marielle for my cats drop in visits. Everything went so smoothly and my cats are so comfortable and happy. Thank you Marielle! 🤍

Marielle was very friendly and provided lots of updates and pictures of our dog during her visits. He seemed very happy and content when we got home! She was also very flexible and was willing to add last minute additional walks when our plans suddenly changed. Will definitely use her again for future walks!

We had a fantastic experience with Marielle! She came by three times to check on our dogs, made sure they were fed and walked, and treated them with so much care and love. She kept us in the loop the entire time with updates and photos, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. She was super responsive, reliable, and clearly has a great connection with animals. Our dogs absolutely adore her! We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter and will definitely be reaching out to her again. Highly recommended!

Information Marielle S. would like to know about your pet

Any quirks to be aware of that could be alarming at first interaction, i.e. aggressive reactions to other dogs, shyness towards strangers, territorial of toys or their space. Nothing is a dealbreaker but I want to ensure I'm making the dog (and owner) as happy as possible.

A typical day

I'm all about accommodating dogs to their liking. If your dog loves other dogs, we'll head to the Civita Park or Little Italy dog parks! If they love long active walks or high activity, we'll hit the trails for a hike or a park for some fetch. Or if they just like a snuggle until it's time for a neighborhood walk, we can do that too!
