responsible & experienced cat/dog
Pet care experience
I'm a school psychologist with a love for animals. I have taken care of cats and dogs for clients, friends and family for more than 8 years. I always treat animals with kindness, love, and respect. I have two pets of my own - a 7 year old dog, and 12 year old cat who requires daily medication and management of several conditions. I understand how important it is to trust the person who is taking care of your pets while you are away. My goal is to provide your cat/dog with the best care and plenty of love and attention, so you don't have to worry while you are away from home. I treat your pets as if they were my own. Please contact me if you'd like to get started. I hope to meet your furry friend soon!
Reviews
Marina was great with my senior cat. She was reliable, gave me great updates, and gave my cat a lot of attention. I would definitely work with her again!
Marina is awesome! Daily update with cute photos and our cat who is normally very skittish was calm and happy when we returned.
Marina responded last minute and went above and beyond with my cats! Would definitely recommend, no issues and very easy communication. 5/5 :)
Marina did a great job taking care of our cat. We’ll definitely rebook!

Safety, trust & environment
I am highly responsible and will follow any directions you have for your pets when I come to your home. I send pictures and communicate with you during each visit so you can have peace of mind while you are away.
Home
Information Marina F. would like to know about your pet
I'd like to know if your pet has any behaviors, anxiety, health problems, etc. that I should be aware of so I can provide the best care. I'm cautious with opening/closing doors for pets who have a tendency to be escape artists
A typical day
Every pet is unique and I aim to tailor my activities based on your pets needs. I've watched cats who are extremely shy and take a lot of warming up, and also those who want to play immediately. I've watched senior dogs who prefer shorter/slower walks and I've watched highly active dogs who enjoy covering a long distance on their walks.
