About Marilyn S.
Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
I don't take cat care in my home because I have a cat and animals can be unpredictable. They might get along at first, but that can change.
Information Marilyn S. would like to know about your pet
I will take care of any breed or size dog or cat. Let me know if they have a special hiding place in case they are afraid.
A typical day
Walking in your neighborhood or I can drive to a local dog park and play frisbee and catch. I am willing to take the time to teach your furry friend a new trick if you wish.

Pet care experience
Hello, my name is Marilyn. Dogs have been important in my life since I was born as Dad always had a family dog for us. I've had the opportunity to take care of dogs all my life, giving me plenty of experience. I have time to devote to your pet and can give them my undivided attention. When i walk a dog I like to alternate walk, run. I like the dog to heel, in other words not pull me but walk next to me. I walk briskly so that I also get a little workout. When outside for a potty break I will always be with them, never left unattended. I am Pet First Aid certified and always have a First Aid kit in my car at all times. House sitting, at your house, I will care for any size dog. I also can sit for your horses as well but that requires a visit for a quote if you have any questions feel free to call and talk to me.
Cat care experience
Marilyn also cares for cats. Learn about their cat-specific care experience.
Reviews
Would not hire again. Left refrigerated medication for cat on counter rendering it unusable. I, of course, had backup in fridge, but this was completely irresponsible as this was insulin and life saving medication. Locked herself out of home. She did not have my "emergency" contact on her person to obtain entrance. Both dog and cat had zero water. My home was not left in the same condition she obtained it. She texted me asking if her "other" client's dog could stay overnight. As I was 2,000 miles away, I agreed as to not have my dog and cat suffer due to her "over booking" situation. I will NOT be using Rover again.
Marilyn was communicative, prompt, and reliable. Thank you Marilyn!
Marilyn did a great job watching Buddy and keeping this high energy dog busy.
Marilyn was a delightful, thoughtful dog walker who made sure Madysin was well taken care of during our trip.
