Flexible, quality pet & home care

Pet care experience

Hi there! I work from home remotely, though have started splitting my time between home and the office. When I head out of the house, I’m generally gone only 4 hours at a time - that being said, my schedule is very flexible and can be adjusted to cater to your pup/cat/home or other furry friends and/or housesitting needs. If I need to be 100% home, I can! For those requesting boarding, you should know I live alone though I do have two male (neutered and vaccinated) who are very independent, but get along with other dogs and cats. They are indoor / outdoor and are not around all the time. Additionally I can keep them outside for a good chunk of the day if their presence conflicts with your dogs needs, but please just let me know in advance. I have a fenced yard, so your pup can be supervised outside at any time of day or night, and I live downtown / Whiteaker area, right on Skinners Butte - which is about 100 feet away from miles of river trail, where your dog and I will be running / walking (if it’s okay with you!) :). I also provide cuddles and treats! In general I’m a very flexible person and I am happy to do your house or mine. Overnights, days, or just walks work for me. Thank you! Marina I do work, but I have a flexible schedule where I work from home or go into the office. I prefer to work from home because I like taking breaks to go to the park, make lunch, or exercise so can ensure my schedule aligns with your pup or kitty, and overall care expectations. dogs- I have a fenced yard but regardless I do not leave pups outside unsupervised. On walks I ensure we are leashed and are following owner directions about human and other dog interaction (particularly for dogs who are anxious, etc.). Cats- I do not have cat doors for my own indoor/outdoor cats. I physically let them out via my back door, and ensure everything is shut, so there is no risk of your cat escaping. I also tend to make 1 bedroom the “visitor cat room” to ensure there are fewer territorial issues. I’ve found most of the time the guest kitties and my own are pretty playful with one another which is fun!

I highly recommend Marina! I booked her for dog-sitting while I went out of town for a day, and she was communicative and a fast responder!
