Pet care experience

Your pet’s new best friend

Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover who works from home, so your pet will have my full attention all day long. I currently have a cat and a 15 year old senior dog, so I truly understand the bond we have with our older furry friends. Since I care for a senior dog myself, I’m very comfortable with medical needs. I can easily handle: Injections (like insulin) and any oral medications. Special diets and strict feeding schedules. Senior care for pets who need a slower pace and extra patience. Because I’m home 24/7, I can provide constant companionship and as many potty breaks as needed. Your pet will be treated like family here

Marina was absolutely wonderful and was so communicative. She went above and beyond for my cat who is currently sick. Would definitely recommend her

Marina is as loving and caring to all pets as she is to her own. Our puppy loves spending time with her and seems like he doesn't even notice we are gone! She keeps great communication with us and we never worry when we go on vacation.

Marina is great with animals; it’s obvious that she loves all animals and animals love her. With every interaction, she has proven herself to be timely, dependable, and kind. I completely trust her with my pets, and I’m booking her services for my next trip.

Marina is the most compassionate, loving individual I know and these qualities spill over into her care for and love of pets! There is no one more qualified to take care of your fur-babies while you are away.

A typical day

A typical day with me involves constant companionship and plenty of attention. Since I work from home, we start with a morning walk followed by a structured routine of play and rest. I make sure to include mental stimulation and regular potty breaks. If your pet has a specific medical or feeding schedule, I integrate that seamlessly into our day to ensure they stay healthy and happy

It’s important to know that I am very experienced with senior pets, as I care for my own 15-year-old dog. I am fully comfortable administering injections, such as insulin, and managing complex medication schedules. I live in a calm environment with my own friendly dog and cat, and I prefer working with breeds or temperaments that get along well with other animals
