Loving Sitter, Like Family to Pets
I’ve been caring for dogs since 8 years ago and have experience with a wide range of breeds, sizes, and temperaments. Whether it’s walking, feeding, or providing companionship, I treat every pet as if they were my own. I’m also have experience with senior dogs and puppies. Friends, neighbors, and family consistently trust me with their pets, knowing they’ll receive patient, loving care.
Qualifications
Ratings and reviews
Thanks for looking after Chicago at such short notice. I appreciate your flexibility. Very accommodating and spent quality time with my pup.

Marina has watched and cared for my dog many times. She has been such a great dog-sitter and walker. She is responsible, knowledgeable, and prompt. If Marina says she will be somewhere at 5:00pm, she will not only be on time, but she will come at 4:55pm to help prepare if needed.
Marina was such a wonderful sitter! My dog tolba took an instant liking to her. She was prompt and organized. Would definitely recommend and rehire without hesitation.
Marina is the best. She is flexible and easy going with my inconsistent schedule and last minute changes. She always texts me pics of Nala and updates me after she visits, which gives me an amazing peace of mind. She played a huge role in Nala’s transition from crate to free roam the house. There is no way we could have done without her. Nala is happy and so am I. Thank you Marina! - Youssef
Marina is a great dog sitter! She baby sat my dog and he loved having her around. He is very shy around people but she made him feel comfortable. He played a lot with her. When I came back he was just as happy as I left him. He did not want her to leave. Overall, she did a good job!

I’m flexible and happy to work with your dog’s existing routine—whether that means early morning walks, midday check-ins, or evening cuddles. I prioritize consistency and am available weekdays and weekends to keep your pup comfortable, safe, and on track.

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I have a spacious backyard where your dog will have room to play or relax safely. I can easily crate your dog if preferred, and I always follow any instructions you provide closely to ensure a calm and secure environment.
A typical day
I love to keep your dog engaged both physically and mentally. We’ll go on stimulating walks, play fetch or tug-of-war, explore the local park, and enjoy some downtime with belly rubs and enrichment toys. I tailor activities to suit your dog’s personality and energy level.
