Pet care experience

Hello.. I would love the opportunity to be your next pet care giver. I am retired now so I have plenty of free time to provide your cat or dog my undivided attention! I am available for drop in only at your home. My life has always felt richer having our family dog… being an Aunt to my sister’s and nieces cats… I’ve done dog foster care…And I must say the best therapy is cat or dog… I will walk, feed, clean up after them… belly rubs are free! Please understand I require a meet and greet prior. Hope to meet with you soon!

Marilyn was a wonderful stand in for me! I really appreciated the time she took to get to know me and my cats. She went out of her way to make me feel comfortable and like they were her own.

Marilyn gives our cat the best TLC and he adores her. She is kind and offers truly thoughtful care. I can't recommend her highly enough.

Marilyn was great to work with and took wonderful care of our cats. I felt completely at ease knowing she was watching over them during our time away.

I will arrive to your home ready to take care of your pet (s) with the love and attention you would expect in your absence. Written instructions are important and all food items and so forth should be easily available for me. Wherever you are I will make certain your pet is safe and sound and if you have any request to make them feel more at ease just let me know…

Information Marilyn F. would like to know about your pet

I require a meet and greet to talk about any personal needs your pet may have. The more you tell me will make it easier for your pet while you are away. My goal is to make you all at ease! While I realize emergencies come up and a meet and greet become impossible…. Please still be prepared to have all written instructions available….

A typical day

I want our time together to be happy and soothing for your loved pet! For my dog drop ins I will not just feed and give potty breaks… I will spend time playing, petting, belly rubs…go for a walk or play in your in yard if available… Whatever your suggestions are… leave a light on or the TV when I leave… If I am doing a drop in for your cat… except for going outside I will follow your cats lead for play and petting as I know each cat is their own person. I will keep to our time allowed but make it full.
