About Marika B.
Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
I follow what the pet wants to do. If they are full of energy, I will play with them or take them for a walk. If they want to lay around and be lazy, then that’s what we’ll do. If it’s just potty breaks, I’ll let them out for a good 10-20 minutes, if it’s nice enough outside. Along with some good scratches before I leave.
Information Marika B. would like to know about your pet
Please let me know if your pet is selective with other people or pets, as well as if they have a high prey drive. I would also like to know about medication or health issues, along with any specific behavior I should look out for.
A typical day
Work on training/tricks for 5-10 minutes, run around with some toys and play tug or fetch. Go on a walk if the weather is decent and maybe get some good cuddles if that’s what they want.

Pet care experience
I’ve always grown up with at least one dog in the house. my parents adopted a dog when I was 8 and I’ve helped take care of him ever since. I also had many neighbors who would often ask me to take care of their dog or cat while they were out of town. I had worked at a dog daycare/boarding facility for about 2 years.
Reviews


Marika is excellent with dogs! I have 2 high energy young dogs. She played with them in the backyard playing catch & wore them out! She also sent several pictures during the day. I highly recommend Marika & will defintely have her again!
Marika is very loving towards all animals, and truly treats every pet as if it is her own. I have been friends with her for a long time, and throughout those years she has helped me and my family with our pets and all of their needs. Super organized, authentic, and supportive of everyone around her. She will definitely give you peace of mind, knowing your pets are in good hands. If you choose her to take care of your pet you’re making the right choice. ❤️
Amazing pet sitter would trust her with my reptiles and my cats. Honestly would trust with my life. Very will suited for the job and well educated when it comes to pets needs and wants.
Marika has been great with our dog. She makes sure our dog gets walks daily, let outside every 2 to 3 hours and loves unconditionally.
