Availability

I am a college student who works on the weekends, so I’m available on the weekdays after class and during evenings on the weekends. I enjoy walking my own dog so walking others will not be a problem. I can move around my schedule as well to walk dogs and will do everything I can to make myself available!

Safety, trust & environment

I have a fenced off backyard with a grass field. I own a large Shepard dog who is friendly with other dogs and is very energetic when playing. He enjoys rough play but chasing a ball is his favorite activity in the whole world. If your dog enjoys playing roudy then they will be perfect together.

Information Marina A. would like to know about your pet

If a dog takes certain medication and it is needed while they are in my watch. I would also like to know if a dog is reactive and doesn’t like certain people. Also, if the dog gets distracted easily by other dogs or small animals. I would also like to know some of the dogs’ favorite things, such as treats, activities, toys, etc.

A typical day

When I’m with my dog or others, I enjoy going to the park or a field to play fetch with them. My dog loves playing in my backyard and retrieving the ball for hours at a time. I walk him around the park and my neighborhood for long periods of time as it is his favorite activity to do. Besides playing ball with the dogs I watch, I also like to practice tricks with them and reward them with nice treats!

All dogs deserve a caring owner!

Pet care experience

I’ve grown up with animals my whole life, especially dogs. I own an 80 pound Shepard who is full of energy. I have also been a baby sitter for relative’s dogs occasionally. I understand the responsibility of having an animal and I want to ensure the best care for them. I love dogs and want to give them the best care I possibly can!

Marina was great! I had to go out of town for several weeks and she helped get my pup exercise — easing some of the doggie grandparent care duties :) thanks so much, Marina!

Marina is great! Very sweet with my dog, who can be a bit timid on walks. She worked with her to feel more comfortable, going a little further each time. Definitely recommend to others!

Marina was calm and patient with my pup Karma who is very ‘particular’. She let Karma warm up and would go a little bit further each day. She was very communicative and I felt super comfortable with her from day 1. Definitely recommend.
