Safety, trust & environment

I have a fully fenced in backyard with plenty of running space. I have two dogs of my own who are happy to be your dog's new bffs. They are both fully vaccinated, spayed, and courteous of other dog’s boundaries. They are most comfortable with medium to small dogs. I also have two rabbits that are kept inside my back porch in a pen, which is separated from the rest of the house. if your dog is very aggressive (like excessive jumping/growling that would knock over a baby gate/ not be safely controlled with a leash) toward small animals we may not be a good fit. However, we never let dogs near the rabbit pen unsupervised and they only need to pass the rabbits when going outside.

Information Marina G. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if your dog has any health or behavioral issues. I have two dogs of my own so it’s best if they are comfortable around other (small and medium) dogs who are respectful of boundaries. It’s helpful to know which commands your dog responds to.

A typical day

I walk my dogs most evenings of the week. We also love to hangout in the backyard and play ball. We have plenty of toys and comfy beds for rainy days.

Safe & fun dog sitting

Pet care experience

I started sitting friend’s dogs around 2014 and love getting to know their unique personalities. I have since adopted two rescues of my own who love having doggie visitors.

Marina maintained excellent communication with me throughout Suga's stay. Suga was happy when I arrived and made two new doggie friends. I'll use her services again whenever it's needed.

Marina and her husband took great care of our dog while we went away on vacation. They treated him just like one of their own fur babies and had fun. We will definitely use her again.

Marina was super easy to coordinate with and took good care of my pup! I would book her again.
