Flexible schedule-large fenced yard

Pet care experience

Family-oriented wife and mother of 3 (all 20+) with very flexible schedule is looking to watch dogs in my home. We are conveniently located just 5 minutes from O'hare. When we watch your furry family member it is truly a family affair. One of my previous jobs was walking dogs, so I have a lot of experience with many breeds and behaviors. Typical care: feed, walk, love, administer medication (ears & pills). I love taking walks. So when I take them with dogs, I like to see their interaction with squirrels, birds and other wildlife. This would be a great way for me to continue to exercise. I was not able to have a permanent dog in my house because there are allergies in my extended family. My family all loves dogs and we get our "dog-fix" when we are able to care for the dogs of our friends and family. Hope you will trust us with your furry family member as well.

Marina was great with Rocky as usual. So great that she kept Rocky again. Sorry for the late review.

Amazing experience for Max. Marina and her family are very experienced with dogs (especially with the dogs that are not friendly) and our dog, Max, had an amazing experience. Thanks to Marina and her family for taking care of our pet!!

Thanks so much to Marina and family for taking such great care of our doggie Luna. We loved receiving photos and updates on how Luna was doing and what sorts of games she was enjoying. Luna is now at home and happy from her wonderful week with Marina!!

Sophie had another excellent stay with Marina and Gary. It’s like a mini vacation for Sophie when she stays with them and has all the fun. Looking forward to many more stays this summer!

Information Marina A. would like to know about your pet

Before sitting for your dog, I would like to know the temperament of your dog. I would also like to know what activities your dog enjoys and what things to try to avoid while your dog is in my care. This way we can both have a fun experience. I don't have any breed preferences.

A typical day

The neighborhood we live in that is enjoyable for me and my husband to walk in. It is quiet and diverse. There are plenty of squirrels, birds and other dogs around our house to see and explore. While in our large fenced-in yard, we will run around and play fetch with a ball or a little bit of "tag". I probably will never catch the dog, so I will probably be "it" all the time!!!
