A College Kid Who Loves Animals

I have always been an animal lover since I can remember. I have been taking care of dogs and cats since I was 6 years old. When I was about 13 or 14, I started my own dog walking service in my neighborhood. When I was younger, we also use to foster animals while they were waiting to either get adopted or waiting to get their shots. We use to have 6 pets (5 cats, 6 dogs) but unfortunately, we lost one this past January so now we only have 5. Since I have been taking care of pets for about 14 years, I have a wide range of experience from kittens to senior dogs and cats.

Pets

Safety, trust & environment

All of our animals are indoor animals. They are all senior aged meaning they have do have extra required attention with medications and someone who is gentle. They are updated on their vaccines and trained (by me). They are spoiled to the max and get plenty of love throughout the day

Marina went above and beyond caring for sweet, rambunctious Mr. Banks at our home while we were away for an extended weekend. Not only did she provide amazing care for him- with lots of play time cuddles and walks- but we received daily updates on the fun they had and came home to a remarkably tidy home! We’re so grateful! 🐾💙

Marina took my dog on two walks in the cold and left the best Rover cards. I would have her come back.

over 101 lbs
Marina can host up to 4 drop-ins per day
Let me know if a dog has any special needs or preferences, this might include if they're hyper-active or love to jump on people or love to tug etc.
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.
