Highlights
Pet care experience
Caring dog sitter, pet lover
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.

Ratings and reviews
Marilyn was absolutely fantastic watching Ryq for the week! Leaving a pet behind is never easy, but Marilyn provided complete peace of mind with regular updates and photo check-ins. Rya was so well cared for, happy, and treated like family. We could not have asked for a better experience. Highly recommend Marilyn to anyone looking for a reliable, attentive, and caring sitter—we will definitely be booking with her again!
Marilyn was incredible with our fur baby. Quick with replies and updates.... and super flexible when our pick up time needed to change due to unplanned circumstances. Definitely recommend her and will be using her services anytime we leave town. :) Thank you so much Marilyn!
It was a great experience leaving our pup with Marilyn. She kept us updated and was quick to respond to messages.
I knew when I met Marilyn and her partner, that they were kind and trustworthy people. They took excellent care of Charlie. She sent updates with photos and was highly responsive. I highly recommend Marilyn!
Marilyn took good care of my pup and gave regular updates. I would highly recommend her.
They took great care of our fur baby! Gave updates every couple days, overall friendly and would book again.

Schedule
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.
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
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.
