Experienced Dog Walker/Pet sitter

Pet care experience

I have 10 years of experience in the pet industry from Dog Walking & Pet sitting to grooming, retail and pet nutrition. Dogs are my life long love. I currently share my home with my 2 year old golden retriever, my 6 year old daughter and my husband. Besides clients’ dogs and cats, I have taken care of many friends and family members’ pets as well over the years. Taking care of dogs and cats are my true therapy. I love to take walks with the pups, trips to the parks, and do yard romps; enrichment toys & activities.

Marina was the best sitter ever. Bella was like part of the family!! Marina sent me several updates w pictures and videos during the day. Bella was sad to leave and miss playing with Aspen the family dog and her daughter Lia. Marina will always be my go to person when we have to travel. I totally rec9mmend Marina. She loves dogs and takes excellent care of them.

Marina and her little girl took wonderful care of Tulip, my 1 year old Shih-Tzu. Tulip got lots of attention and loved the fenced in back yard where she could run around with Marina’s two dogs. I highly recommend her family. Thank you Marina!

Marina and her family took great care of our pups and sent plenty of pictures during their stay. I felt 100% confident in their ability to look after our dogs and would love to use them again in the future.

Marina was great!! As new dog owners, this was our first time using Rover and would recommend her to anybody. Our puppy is not good with crates and she was very accommodating to her needs! She also went the extra mile by bathing her too!
