Pet care experience
Hello, I’m Marina. I’ve had pets in my life for as long as I can remember. Growing up, I had two loving Rottweilers and a mini Schnauzer as well as two exotic parrots. Animals are a big part of my family’s life –– without pets, we would be incomplete! Though we love our animals, my family always found it hard to travel due to the expense of leaving our pets at kennels. As a pet sitter, I’m able to offer others a feeling of relief while they’re on vacation away from their fur babies. I want my human clients to feel confident that their pups are having as much fun as they are while on vacation. Our home is very comfortable for pets. Our living room is full of dog beds for our furry guests to lounge in as well as a comfy couch where they can lay at their convenience. We also have a nice sized backyard that is fully gated, so our four-legged friends can play or relax outside during their stay. There are a total of five of us in my home, so your pooch will never be left alone for more than 30 minutes a day. We supervise the dogs while they are in the backyard to ensure that they are 100 percent safe at all times.
Reviews
Marina was great! Two of our cats were a bit aggressive, but she handled it really well and made us feel comfortable that our cats were still getting the care they needed. We were gone for our wedding, so we were especially grateful to her for being such a good sport.
Marina did a GREAT job with our pup Jackson while we were on vacation!! We got lots of updates letting us know that he was doing ok and I can tell he had a great time playing with her dogs, he was tuckered out when we picked him up. Highly recommend Marina! Thanks soooo much!!!
We had a great experience boarding our dog with Marina and her family. She sent us picture updates while we were on our trip and it looked like our dog was having a great time. Highly recommend booking with her!
Marina was amazing!!!!!!!!!!!!! I never worried about Gavin, and it felt so good knowing he was in the comfort of her home and not in a kennel. Thank you Marina for taking such good care of our Gavin! We will be using your services again!!!!!

Information Marina C. would like to know about your pet
I will always ask if your dog is house-trained, if they have all of their shots, if they’re friendly around other animals, and what their usual sleeping accommodations are.
A typical day
When your pup stays with me, we will walk around the neighborhood and the local forest preserve. We take our canine guests to the dog park at least once during their stay. We’ll also probably head to the beach if the weather permits. I will make sure that your dog is as comfortable as possible while you’re away. We will try our best to accommodate their sleeping needs. If your pooch sleeps in a crate, doggie bed, your bed, or on the couch, floor, or carpet, we will make that work. We provide our four-legged guests with tons of attention and send our human clients pictures and video updates throughout their stay.
