Pet care experience
Animals have always been a large part of my life. I grew up fostering animals for several shelters, adopting several dogs over the years. Currently, I have a black lab named Sadie that I fostered/adopted. Sadie came to me with severe anxiety(towards people, not other four-legged friends), but we have made leaps and bounds with lots of love and patience. Sadie has lots of toys and treats she loves to share ! I have experiencing managing strict diets and can follow any instructions provided. I can also administer medication to your dog (if needed).
Reviews
Marilyn is a true animal lover that will love and treat your babies as her own! She stayed with my boys for almost a full week and made sure I had pictures and regular updates. I highly recommend her and can't thank her enough!
Marilyn is great with my furry children! She was able to handle my feisty dachshunds and playful border collie! They get excited anytime she’s able to walk them!! A must request walker!!

Safety, trust & environment
Your pet will have free range of my home, unless there is a need to separate it from my dog. There are several parks in the area, including a dog run that we like to frequent regularly. As always, I will follow whatever directions you provide on how you would want your pet to be cared for in your own home or space.

Information Marilyn L. would like to know about your pet
Please be upfront and honest about any special needs your dog has. I want to ensure that I am prepared and ultimately provide your dog the most stress free experience.
A typical day
On a typical day, I wake up around 6/6:30. We immediately get ready for our morning walk that last about 30-45 minutes. Pending the schedule outlined by the owner, we move into breakfast and then some morning play time. I usually start work around 9 am, accounting for an afternoon bathroom break between 11/12. In the late afternoon we pop out for another 30 minute walk before the sun goes down, and maybe even a stop at the dog park (with owner approval).
