Pets

Very flexible schedule!!

Pet care experience

I have two dogs of my own, Kirby 3 years old (mix of we aren't sure) and Jerry 8 years old (Yorkshire terrier) and I have many foster dogs in and out of my home as I work with a local rescue to save dogs from the shelter and unwanted homes. People say I'm an "animal person" because I like all animals...even snakes :) I have a very flexible schedule and am available most times of the day and each day of the week. I usually prefer dogs to have a harness rather than a collar just for safety of the pet. I will enjoy getting to know the pets in my community! Please let me know if you have any specific questions about the care I can provide.

Marilyn was fantastic! We had a last-minute emergency change our holiday plans, and Marilyn was so flexible to help us out in a difficult situation! She was responsive, and our babies seemed to open up to her pretty quickly (which is rare).

Marilyn is very kind and easy to work with. She gave frequent updates. When our pup hurt himself she took such great care of him, and even took him to our vet herself. We were so grateful for her wonderful care.

Marilyn sent updates, photos and videos daily of Halo. She took good care of Halo after her recent surgery and was able to give Halo her medication. Thanks for taking great care of Halo!
