Pet care experience
I have a large enclosed sunny backyard large enough for your doggie to run around. I live near many nice parks and trails and I'd love to walk your dog in nature, or take him to dog parks for a sniffing session. If you prefer your dog to stay only indoors and use the backyard only, that's fine too. I especially know how to take care of older dogs which I love, as I was a very attentive and loving caregiver to my own 14 y.o. rescue Cavalier King Charles until 2 months ago. I miss him a lot and I am looking forward to doting to your baby with all the extra love I got to spare! I use the Italian mom approach to care and attention: eat right, be where I can see you, exercise, sleep well and yes, everyone is allowed on the bed! Same for cats: I had cats all my life, often more than one at a time, and I have a special affinity with them. Even the persnickety ones let me pet them 😸
Reviews
Marina is very caring and kind. She communicates well and was a great host for my dog. 10/10 would recommend.
Marina is one of those most reliable, loyal, caring people I know. I personally have seen her completely enchant my own temperamental cats within minutes and my dog. In the end it all comes down to this: if I were a dog or a cat, Marina would be the person I would want to watch me :)!
Marina is wonderful with pets. She has cared for cats of all ages and a dog from puppy to old age. She is attentive to their needs, gently firm when necessary, and very careful with their diet. She is active and enjoys seeing pets get their exercise too. I highly recommend her for short-term or long-term pet care.

I live in a house with a big backyard and your dog is allowed on bed and couch if it's ok with you. I can administer meds if needed. I will keep your dog close to me at all times. My dog was reactive and I am particular attentive in monitoring interactions and encounters with other dogs. I use only pet safe cleaning products. In case of cats, I would be extra careful to keep them indoor unless otherwise instructed.
