Pet care experience

I've pet sat for my friends & family and would like to extend that to more people. Not only do I enjoy having another dog in the house, my dog is happy to have a friend to play with! I am okay with puppies that still need crate and potty training, as well as older dogs who want more peace and quiet. My dog is also reciprocative of whatever temperament yours has.

I feel really great knowing my dog is well cared for when she stays with Marika!

Marika is very sweet and was very responsive to my texts. My 4 months old puppy had a great time at Marika’s place. She was able to socialize with other puppies, play and get used to spend some time at another home. Marika took great care of Brooklyn!! I’ll definitely book her in the future ?

Marika takes such great care of my dog. I know I don’t have to worry when she’s with her.

My dog felt so comfortable staying with Marika and she was great working with me for drop off and pickup.

Safety, trust & environment

I have a fenced grass yard in my apartment, which allows for regular potty breaks if they still have a small bladder. I also live across the street from a park, so typically take medium-length walks in the morning (20-30 min) and longer walks in the evening (1+ hr). If you have an active dog that needs to run, I'll be happy to either take them to a dog park or an open field to play fetch!

Availability

I work full time during the week, so weekday sitting is not ideal unless there are special circumstances and past stays so that I know your dog is comfortable to be in the home without me. Stays here are best suited for holiday and weekend trips. I will be with the pets most (if not all) of the time.
