Long walks and backyard play daily!

Pet care experience

Now available to UES pups! I’m an artist a dog lover. I have nothing but love and compassion for animals. I live next to a beautiful park, with a short walk to Central Park. Your pup will get 3+ mile walks daily as we walk from my home to my art studio daily. My studio has a backyard where your pup will have freedom to go in an out as he/she pleases. I will provide a warm loving home with lots of fun and exercise while you’re away. Your pup comes to work with me daily. I keep them entertained with indoor and outdoor play, toys and hugs. They spend very little if any time alone. My apartment is dog friendly and I do allow them to snuggle on the blanket covered furniture. Although I don’t leave them alone much, I may occasionally need to go to the store. If your dog requires being crated during alone time I request that you provide a crate. During the day your pup will come with me to my art studio where I provide a bed and blanket, toys, puzzles and indoor/outdoor play. Your dog will never be off leash when on walks.

Our 10-year old Lila stayed with Marilyn for the first time for 12 nights while we were abroad on vacation. Marilyn is a terrific person and both Lila and I felt comfortable from the start at our "meet and greet. While we were away, Marilyn took wonderful care of Lila. She followed our instructions and fed Lila the right foods, and Lila came home looking very happy and energetic. Her coat was shiny and her poops were normal--all indicators that she was well cared for. Marilyn was very good to send us daily updates with photos from her home as well as from Central Park walks. Marilyn brought Lila with her to her work studio each day instead of leaving her alone in the apartment. Lila was definitely well cared for, and in good company and not lonely. This was key for us. We will definitely be booking with Marilyn again.

Marilyn and Haley have watched our dog several times. They’re reliable and professional. I highly recommend them. Most importantly, our dog is always excited to see them.

Haley was amazing with Buster. She has a huge outdoor section with plenty of room for Buster to run around! I will surely be using her again
