Loving and Caring Pet Sitter

Pet care experience

Hi there! My name is Marilyn and I have always had to biggest heart when it comes to animals. I’ve had 2 years of experience dog sitting for family and friends and I hoping to expand my services to others in need. As a doggy parent myself, I understand wanting to make sure to find the right sitter to make sure that my pet is safe, loved, care for. I’ve had experience caring for small puppies and bigger dogs as well! I adapt well to different age group and breeds. Whether it’s walking, feeding or some companionship, I would love to be there for you and your furry friend on those busy days or when you’re away! I only accept zelle so please reach out before booking!

Marilyn is an excellent, reliable dog sitter who has watched my dog Bear many times before. She is kind and receptive, great at providing care to my pet when I traveled. She is wonderful at working with pets of all kind, and great at calming dogs who may be more anxious, such as my dog Bear. Bear loves Marilyn and always looks forward to seeing her everyone she watches him! Your pet will love Marilyn!

Safety, trust & environment

Your pets safety is my top priority! I always make sure leashes and harnesses are secure before walks and would treat any pet as if it were my own. I also am very communicative and always will ask owners questions or concerns to make sure everything is okay and send updates when needed. I understand that leaving your dog in the care of someone else takes a lot of trust and I am very grateful for any chance to help out your furry friend. I always want to provide a safe, calm and loving presence for them and earn their trust!

Information Marilyn H. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if there if anything I need to know about your pets ahead of time so that I could be better prepared and tailor to their specific needs. This could be any anxiety, jumping, pulling on walks ( any additional tips or info on pertaining to their walks), really anything that requires me to change my care and is important to know the safety of your pet and myself.

A typical day

I truly meet every pet with patience and really believe in the gift of trust. I would first try to warm up or any pets first and take all the time needded to that. Then of course I would give some pets and start with any list of activities given by the owner! This would include any walks, companionship, cleaning up, and play!
