Animals are truly your best friends
Caring for animals brings immense joy and fulfillment to me. Providing a nurturing environment, tailored to each animal's unique needs, is a labor of love. From gentle touch to soothing words, every interaction strengthens the bond. Witnessing trust grow, health flourish, and personalities shine is profoundly rewarding. Ensuring their well-being, comfort, and happiness becomes an unwavering commitment. Tending to their physical needs – nourishment, hygiene, and safety – is fundamental. Caring for animals isn't just a responsibility; it's a privilege! Their unconditional love, loyalty, and gratitude remind us of life's simple beauty. While I’ve enjoyed working with animals, my son is now third year at Juilliard studying the violin, my daughter just started high school! And my husband is an ears nose and throat surgeon in the East bay… We’ve live on Potrero hill for 15 years. We enjoy tennis and Squash, going out to wonderful restaurants, snowboarding, skiing and travel!

Ratings and reviews
Marina was very sweet and welcoming of Charlie & he clearly felt comfortable and enjoyed himself while staying with her for a few days. I really appreciated all of her pictures & updates too!
Marina is just the best. So loving of my pup and easy to work with!!!
Our anxious little pup stayed with Marina for a week while we were on vacation and Marina was so wonderful, caring, and warm with her! Marina eased our worries about leaving her with someone new, and took great care to allow our dog to slowly warm up to her on her own time. By the end of the week, our dog was having the time of her life! Marina provided frequent updates, administered our dog's daily medication, checked in about any questions she had, and clearly loves what she does so much. Thanks so much Marina!!
Marina was very communicative and sent lots of photos! I even had to extend my trip a bit unexpectedly and Marina was so nice and accommodating. Thanks for giving lots of love to my pup; I’ll be back for sure!
Marina took such good care of Otis! He was very happy when we picked him up.
Marina is fantastic with our dog! I know he gets tons of love and attention when he stays over!

Schedule
I devote all of my days, my full days and evenings to my Job of taking care of animals, whether it be your dog or your cat! The afternoons and evenings are really slow paste, involve my daughter coming home and doing homework and cooking dinner and your baby will be incorporated and all of that fun!

A typical day
I walk a lot of neighborhood dogs so thats always exciting, dogs love jobs! I have some fabulous day dogs on occasion, which makes the day a delight!
