Highlights
Pet care experience
Reliable, pet lover, experienced.
I've taken care of cats and dogs since 5 years old. Grooming, walking, cleaning up after them and loving them. I have added birds, ferrets, and turtles to my pets in my adulthood. I foster neonatal kittens. I have trained many dogs and have shown them in obedience. I have had elderly dogs and cats and have helped them through their needs in old age. I love to throw the ball for your dog, play with cats or just sit and pet them, make sure they have their food on time and always have water. I can walk you dog around the block or for 5 miles. I am very experienced in reactive dogs and walking them. I have had large and small dogs. My last two dogs were Dobermans. I will be reliable and follow your instructions.
Qualifications
Safety, trust & environment
I am looking to care for your pet in your home. I may, be able to take a cat or dog into my home sometimes, but I have chickens in my backyard so it is not available. At your home I can stay overnight if necessary or just come and care for your pet in the comfort they are used to. I am reliable and trustworthy and will give all the love and care your pet needs and wants.
Ratings and reviews
Marilyn did a great job tending to my cats
Marilyn did a great job taking care of my dog overnight in my home while I was out of town for one night. Everything looked great when I got home & he was very happy. I would definitely have her take care of him again.
Marilyn is a wonderful dog walker and I recommend her without reservation.
Adored dog walker. Marilyn is terrific
Marilyn is a blessing and she’s a perfect dog walker
Marilyn is dependable and kind. and patient with my challenging cat. She communicates well during the stay. I worry hardly at all when she stays.
