Information Marina B. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know any special needs your pet may have. I'm experienced in administering medications of all kinds. My house has no stairs, so it's great for animals with physical limitations or eye-sight problems.

A typical day

I've got a securely fenced-in backyard that is great for quick potty breaks, fetch, and sun-bathing. Also note, they will never be left unattended in the backyard. I love going for multiple walks in my neighborhood which is my main form of exercise for your pup. I also live near a dog park if your dog likes to be social.

Experienced Professional Pet Sitter

Pet care experience

Let me spoil your pup! I work from home and love to give lots of attention day and night. In addition to having my own pets most of my life, I've been a professional pet sitter and dog groomer for many years. I'm down to care for animals of all kinds. I have experience with dogs, cats, birds, fish, and lizards. I have a gentle and keen sense of animals. I've even been dubbed the "angry chihuahua whisperer" from my pet grooming days. I'm also pretty thorough and detail-oriented, so don't be afraid to let me know your specific needs if you have them. Let me know if you have any questions! I’d be happy to answer them or schedule a meet and greet 😊

Very kind and responsible. We appreciate feeling confident leaving our kitties while we are away. Marina was great!

Great communication and love the photo updates. Mai Tai seems to really love her time at Marina’s place, getting lots of cuddles and romping in the yard

Marina was fantastic! I couldn’t thank her enough for stepping in on fairly short notice. She was very communicative and flexible. And most importantly, my dog Henry loved her. I will always feel confident that my dog will be well care for with Marina.

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
