STAY AT HOME full time dog lover!

Pet care experience

Hey there! My name is Marijo (pronounced Mary-jo) and I've been an avid animal lover all my life. From snails to horses, I've had them all, but as it turns out I may just love dogs and cats the most! I have 2 rescues of my own, both chihuahua mixes, and I couldn't imagine life without them. As cheesy as it sounds, their happiness is mine. Whether it's cuddles or a good few dozen laps around the park or beach, I'd do just about anything to keep your baby happy as I do my own. Let me know how I can be of service to you and your family when you need it most. I'm here to help :) • Please have flea and tick preventatives for your pet if you plan on having them stay with me! • If your dog has severe anxiety to the point where I can’t walk outside to my car or take another dog to the bathroom without them tearing up my living space and barking/whining loudly, I can’t sit for you. I need to be able to step outside or run to the store when I have to, and keep the surrounding neighbors happy. • If you have a dog over 1 year old who is not yet house trained, I cannot care for them at my apartment. • If you are boarding your pup at my house, please provide their own food along with a toy or blanket from home. I have plenty of dishes they can eat/drink from along with tons of organic treats that they’ll get daily! • Be prepared for pictures! During your dog’s time with me, I like to provide lots of pictures so you know he/she is in good hands and your mind is at ease while you’re away!

Marijo took good care of my pup. She came over to do an all day sit & walked him & fed him. She communicated with me the whole time. I would definitely recommend her. :)

We have booked Marijo several times and have always had a great experience. She keeps us updated and we feel safe leaving our pup in good hands.

Great house and dog sitter! Marijo was punctual and beyond attentive to our boy. Marijo was proactive with communication and her attention to detail was spot on.

Marijo was excellent! She took great care of my pup on extremely short notice and was very communicative throughout the whole process. I would 100% recommend her services and feel confident in my pets well-being under her care.

Information Marijo P. would like to know about your pet

Does your dog get or wear a preventative for flea/ticks? Does your dog have medical conditions or allergies? Are they ever aggressive? Do they get along with other dogs well? Do they have bad separation anxiety?

A typical day

I may live in an apartment and not have a big backyard, but it's a large 2 bedroom place with over 1,000 sq ft and the dog beach and dog park is just around the corner! The neighborhood is great for walking, too! We'll go out several times a day to stretch our legs and get some fresh air. In the early to late afternoon, we'll go out for our daily excursion where we'll socialize and make friends!

I work remotely so I’m extremely flexible most of the time. I’m available to board smaller dogs at my apartment, but larger ones I would prefer to sit at your house for!
