The exact routine of the pet care would depend on the dog, its needs, and energy level, and I’d adjust accordingly. 🏠I work from home fairly often, so on those days I can take the dog out before work, during my lunch break, and again in the evening (If the dog stays with me for several days). So if the dog stays for up to a week, there might be a few times when I have to step out for the maximum of four hours. So the dog should be comfortable being left alone for at least 3-4 hours.

Safety, trust & environment
📌Safery&trust: As a starting point, I would like to know about any special needs, allergies, or potential triggers during walks that the dog might have. 🏠 At home, I would first make sure that anything the dog might be tempted to chew on is put away (rugs, plants, loose objects, etc).

Information Marina B. would like to know about your pet
❣️I’d also like to know a bit more about your dog’s needs and personality. For example, how do they usually behave when left alone? Do they have any special needs, allergies, fears, or triggers — such as certain sounds, smells, people, or situations during walks? It would also be helpful to know how they usually interact with other dogs, including dogs of different sizes, and whether they have any particular preferences when it comes to dog friends or playmates.
A typical day
🐕 When it comes to exercise and play, I have a lovely dog park nearby. Whether we use it would depend on the dog and whether they enjoy socializing with other dogs. If not, we also have a small enclosed yard where we can play fetch and other games. 🐶And if a dog doesn’t get along well with other dogs, that’s absolutely fine too—we would simply stick to leash walks and quieter routes.

I get well with dogs
Pet care experience
Over the years, I’ve often looked after my friends’ dogs because they know how much I love dogs and how well I get along with them. Also, in the past I had two dogs of my own. I have experience with small, medium-sized, and large dogs. I’m comfortable handling dogs of all sizes, although for larger dogs I do prefer that they are reasonably well-behaved on a leash. This summer, while I’m staying in Stockholm, I thought it would be lovely to have some fluffy company, especially since many people travel during the summer months.
Reviews
Marina var en fantastisk hundvakt till Kira. Hon var mycket intresserad av Kiras behov och personlighet och hela vistelsen kändes mycket tryggt och bra. Jag fick bra återkoppling samt bilder under Kiras vistelse. Jag är så nöjd ☺️
Marinas took great care of my dog Walter. The communication around, and attention to Walter’s needs was perfect and I got regular updates along the way. I can really recommend!
We were incredibly grateful to find such a caring and reliable dog sitter, especially on short notice and during the weekend! What we appreciated most was the regular updates and observations about how he was doing. It gave us real peace of mind knowing he was in attentive hands. Enzo came home happy, relaxed, and clearly well looked after. We would not hesitate to book again and highly recommend Marina to anyone looking for a trustworthy, communicative, and compassionate dog sitter.
Marina is my close friend and she has taken care of my mixed breed dog Kirk several times — both when he was still a puppy and I had to go to work, and when he was fully grown. Kirk is a large (about 28 kg) and slightly anxious dog, but I always feel calm and confident leaving him with Marina — she is a true dog lover, knows a lot about dogs' needs and behavior, and absolutely enjoys cuddles too! Marina truly cared for Kirk, took him to the dog park and played with him a lot. I even felt he didn't miss me that much and had a great time — I could tell when I picked him up from Marina's :D
