Safety, trust & environment

Every pet is different! What works for one animal may throw your own pet into a panic and I’m here to make sure we can create a routine for your pet that makes them the most comfortable when you can’t be there. If your dog needs outside time and you don’t have a yard, let’s find the closest park or walking trail! Do your pets become anxious over night? I’ll be there to snuggle their worries away and provide all the pepperoni and churu they could ask for. Whatever your pets needs are, we’ll have an open line for communication throughout their time with me to ensure both you and them are happy.

Information Marina D. would like to know about your pet

If your pets have any special needs (blind, deaf, medication needs, if they are reactive, etc). I’d also love to have an idea of their average daily routines and what their energy levels are like.

A typical day

I love finding new ways to get your dogs and cats excited during the day. One of my favorite activities with my own cats is setting out lick mats with things they haven’t tried before and I’d love to do the same with your own pets. I also love going for hikes and walks and would be happy to incorporate your pet into those things as well!

Pet care experience

Starting from a young age I knew I needed to be a pet care provider. Starting in high school I worked at several barns providing care for various livestock and companion animal species alike. While I love our livestock, I find more fulfillment in helping our household pets. I’m currently working on an animal care and behavior degree, and work at an animal hospital. I have experience in giving oral medications (to both dogs and cats) as well as subcutaneous fluids. I’ve managed several complex medication plans and understand how important a regular routine is for our pets. If you think we would be a good fit please reach out with any questions you may have.

Marina was very pleasant to meet and did an excellent job of taking care of my pets. She communicated needs and concerns and even stayed extra at the last minute. Highly recommend.

Marina is simply fabulous! She keeps my dog safe, happy, and is very responsive and flexible. She sends pictures regularly and keeps me up to date on how things are going. When we had a mix up and picked him up two hours late, she was flexible and forgiving. I would recommend her to anyone!
