Highlights
Pet care experience
Full Time Pet Lover 🐶🐈
Hey there, i’m Marina, a very caring and loving person and full time lover of cats and dogs My experience with dogs originates from having a family Yorkshire that we got as a puppy. Later on when i moved to England, I lived with a family and took full time care of their dog, we used to go on walks every morning after the school run and at lunch time. Our neighbour had the exact same dog but a male and often I used to take both of them on walks to the nearby fields. I have also taken care of my boyfriend’s family cats, they have 4 tabby cats who are very sweet and demanding. I usually feed them and administer medicine to Lucy, their oldest cat, when they go away. I also sit with them making sure they get some attention. I have previously occasionally looked after friend’s dogs by taking them on walks and feeding them.

Ratings and reviews
Marina was easy to deal with when we made initial contact, and met us on arrival. She lives in a lovely flat that is spacious and full of light, and had sent us a video as part of the booking process. She welcomed us - and our cat, George - and was obviously affectionate and caring towards him from the outset. We had no concerns leaving him with her. Marina then went on to communicate with us about how well George was settling in, and sent us further reports and photos every day. We could not have found a better host and would strongly recommend her!
Marina took great care of my cat Frank, I would highly recommend her! She offered a visit beforehand to get to know my pet's routine, and went out of her way to play with him, brush him, and go the extra mile. Thanks Marina!
Marina was great with Bruno! She sent me lots of Hofstra and some photos of her walk with Bru
Marina was amazing with our cat Fig, she sent us lots of updates and photos every day. Fig felt very safe and comfortable with her, as she is usually very shy :). Marina took great care with her food, water, and litter, creating a great environment for Fig. Thank you!
Marina provided plenty of updates and cared really well for Nala over the weekend. She made sure Nala had a really good time, including lots of outside time, which we really appreciated.
Marina cared for our two cats over the weekend and she was easy to communicate with and had a lovely nature. Thank you Marina!

I’m currently working full-time from home so I am able to sit in other people houses or at home and give attention to your pets for as long as needed.

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I usually care for my boyfriend’s family pets, 4 tabby cats who are quite senior and demanding, usually require feeding at different times of the day and oral medicine for two of them due to health issues. As well as constant affection as they love to sit next to me whilst working I always prioritise the health and well-being of animals in my care. My approach involves maintaining their stablished routines as i can imagine it must be hard for them to be away from the people they are used to. I’d provide consistent attention and ensuring they are safe and clean. I’d also keep an eye for any signs of distress or concern if it arises
A typical day
I believe playtime is one of the most important ways to show a pet you love them! We'll have lots of fun with things like playing fetch, going on exciting walks to the park and good old cuddles. My goal is to make every day a happy and enriching adventure for them. When i’m cat sitting, i love to spend extra time with them, making sure they feel loved
