Availability

Pet care fits easily into my weekly routine alongside part-time work. I’m home regularly, and my husband works from home, so pets are never left alone. I make sure they get consistent feeding, playtime, attention and daily walks or exercise, depending on their needs and I can safely keep pets separated if needed for comfort.

Safety, trust & environment

I provide a calm, safe environment and supervise pets closely at all times. I live in a spacious, pet-friendly apartment where dogs are welcome and comfortable. I have a friendly, well-trained 3-year-old Golden Retriever who loves playing with other dogs and is very gentle. I also have crates available if needed. Since my backyard isn’t fenced, pets are always safely leashed or tethered outside and are never left unattended.

Pet care experience

I’ve cared for my own dogs for years and have also helped friends and family with theirs, including large breeds. I genuinely love being around dogs and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and happy. Whether it’s playtime, walks, feeding, or just giving them attention and affection, I enjoy spending quality time with them and treating them like part of the family.

I highly recommend Marilyn as a loving and responsible pet caregiver. She truly treats animals as part of her family. I’ve seen the way she cares for Astro, her little dog, with so much patience, attention, and love every single day. I’ve also seen her take care of a friend’s dog while the owner was on vacation in the US, and she was incredibly responsible and caring. She always made sure the dog was fed on time, taken on walks, comfortable, and surrounded with affection and attention. It’s very clear that Marilyn genuinely loves animals and enjoys spending time with them. Marilyn is someone you can fully trust with your furry family members. She is reliable, attentive, and compassionate, and I would feel 100% confident leaving my pets in her care.
