As a full-time student completing my real estate certification online, I have the flexibility to provide attentive, personalized care throughout the day. My three young sons love the outdoors and would happily welcome a furry friend on walks and adventures. Your pet will be part of a safe, active, and loving family environment while you’re away.

About Marina A.

Safety, trust & environment

Our private cottage community is an ideal setting for dogs, featuring a fenced dog park, a dog-friendly beach, and numerous walking trails. The community has a low speed limit of just 15 km/h, creating a safe, peaceful environment for daily walks, exercise, and exploration. Until October 2026, I provide pet care from my spacious three-bedroom seasonal cottage. Two bedrooms are occupied by myself and my boys, while the third serves as a dedicated quiet retreat for pets who need rest or alone time. Pets are welcome throughout the common living areas, and for owners who are comfortable with it, I also offer extra cuddles and companionship in my room. My children’s bedroom remains a pet-free space.

Peace of mind - For your away time

Pet care experience

With over 10 years of pet-sitting experience, I have cared for dogs and cats of all ages, sizes, and personalities. As a former owner of a Cocker Spaniel and Doberman, I understand the love and attention pets deserve. As a full-time single mother studying online, I am home most of the day and able to provide plenty of supervision, companionship, and personalized care. Your pet will be treated like family, and you can enjoy peace of mind knowing they are safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away.

I highly recommend Marina to anyone looking for a caring and reliable dog sitter! She took wonderful care of my Bichon Poo puppy, Sunny, and made me feel completely at ease while I was away. She sent me updates and photos almost every day, which meant so much to me and reassured me that Sunny was happy, safe, and well cared for. It's clear that she genuinely loves dogs and treats them like family. Sunny came home happy, relaxed, and clearly enjoyed his time with her. I wouldn't hesitate to book with her again and would gladly recommend her to other pet parents! Thank you for taking such great care of my little guy! 🐾💕

I have had the pleasure of knowing Marina as a pet caregiver, and she is truly outstanding. She is caring, trustworthy, and attentive to every pet's needs. Animals naturally seem comfortable around her, and she always provides them with plenty of love and care. Any pet owner would be lucky to have Marina looking after their furry family members.
