Safety, trust & environment

When house sitting as well as caring for your dog, I like to leave your space the way you left it. I do some cleaning after myself and tidying up. My rate is high for overnight stay because of that reason and because Rover does charge me a fee. If it is too high please let me know and we can discuss something that is more affordable for you! (:

Information Marina F. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if your dog has any special needs or behaviors that I should know about. Let me know if your dog has been experiencing any bowel/urinary issues.

A typical day

I love to stimulate your dogs physically and mentally. Blaboa Park is my favorite place to take dogs. Lots of smells and room to play and if the dog is up to it, go for a little jog.

A+ Dog Auntie

Pet care experience

I have been a proud dog Auntie for the past 3 years. And have plenty of dog cousins that I have cared for throughout the years. I have had dogs in my life, all my life. I care for dogs by being intuitive to their energy. I first meet dogs with a calm energy to make them feel safe. I like to make sure that my energy stays calm the entire time I spend with them. I love playtime, getting their energy out, but I am always up for those mid day dog naps where I can spend my time reading or writing cuddled next to them. (Or if they need their space, I like to be able to keep an eye on them so they are safe)

Marina was amazing — easily the best sitter I’ve had! She took care of Louie while I was out of town, and he loved her instantly. I felt completely at ease knowing he was in good hands. She sent regular updates with photos and videos, took him on plenty of walks, played with him, made sure he was fed, and even gave him his meds without any issues. Would definitely book her again!

Marina is by far my favorite walker. She communicates when she’ll be arriving and recaps the walk for me so I can know how my reactive dog is doing. She also stays a little extra to give them some love before leaving. THANK YOU!

Marina always does a wonderful job walking my girls! They love to pull pretty hard around squirrels but Marina keeps them in check. Even in the rain :) Thank you as always!!

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
