Animals love me and I love them.

Pet care experience

I love animals and have owned quite a few to include 6 horses, 8 dogs, 12 cats, rabbits, a cocktail, Guinea pigs, and even a turtle as a child. I have raised all 8 dogs from puppies, potty and crate training, taken them to puppy/adult training classes, and continued their training at home. As puppies, they were introduced to children, other dogs, and animals. The dog breeds include Doberman Pincher, 2 Golden Retrievers, Labrador Retriever mix, German Sheppard, German Sheppard – Siberian Huskey mix, Siberian Huskey, and a Boarder Colie mix. I have enjoyed experiencing the variety of breeds and the individual dog personalities.

Marilyn cared for my 11 week old German Shepherd puppy that is quite the handful at this young age. I was so nervous to leave her, but Marilyn made me feel at ease and was so patient with my care / training guidelines. I came home to a happy and healthy pup! Thank you so much, Marilyn! 🤍

Marilyn was absolutely amazing with our pup. He was very comfortable with her and she went above and beyond to make sure our pup was well taken care of. I will definitely be rebooking with Marilyn for our next trip. Our pup loves Marilyn and so do we!

2nd time with Marilyn. Older dogs have little emergencies and Marilyn has the patience and the responsibility to help with the above and beyond. Highly recommend!

Safety, trust & environment

I am very attentive to the pets needs. I feel dogs should have some variety in their day. It's not fair to make them just hang out all day. So I enjoy taking them for multiple short walks throughout the day and play with them. It's important to follow your feeding and watering schedule. This will help your pet feel more at home and keep them healthy.

Information Marilyn R. would like to know about your pet

Let me know what your dog likes and dislikes. Do they have any habits I should know about? Would you like me to enforce any specific rules?

A typical day

I like to play ball and with any of their toys they like. Tough a war. I love getting my exercise while walking the dogs

I run my business' from home which allows me to set my own schedule. We said good bye to our last dog in December and we have decided not to have any of more animals. I miss the animal connection, hence the registration in Rover. It’s an animal fit for me and I love to reduce the stress of leaving your pets. Animals prefer to stay in their environment and it helps with separation anxiety. I enjoy and value the company of animals. I miss the walks I took twice a day with my dogs. It's been a little lonely. My husband and I still turn around an expect to see Spencer, who use to follow me wherever I went.
