Hi everyone! My name is Marina, I am originally from from Philadelphia and have always had animals growing up. I currently live alone with no pets, have a flexible work schedule, and look forward to caring for your pets as if they were my own.
Qualifications
Ratings and reviews
Marina was fantastic with my pup, Finn. She sent multiple daily updates (Finn looked very happy in all of them) and was very communicative/pleasant. I would absolutely book with Marina again!
Marina was super accommodating to creating a good environment for Alta, who can be reactive to strangers and new places. She gave a ton of updates and followed the instructions perfectly - we will definitely book again!
My dog loved staying with Marina! Great experience!
Marina was wonderful, as usual. Jackson loves her and always comes home happy. Marina was super flexible and understanding when travel issues came up.
Marina was wonderful with CJ, to the point where CJ was watching her walk away through the car window after I picked her up! I had a family emergency and Marina helped with my stress by working with me for extra boarding days and with regular updates and pictures. She’s a gem.
Marina did an excellent job taking care of Luna! Super communicative and Luna settled in right away. We will definitely book with Marina again.

Schedule
I live close to my office and often work remotely, so I am very flexible depending on your dogs needs. I also live between Logan and DuPont circles - great for squirrel watching!
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I make sure dogs staying at my home are comfortable and have their own space. I live alone and fairly high up in an apartment building, so there is little noise.
A typical day
Walks to the Logan Circle, DuPont Circle, Rock Creek Park, along the Potomac, Theodore Roosevelt Island and more. Otherwise, just hanging out and watching TV!

- My rescue pup growing up was reactive, so I am very comfortable caring for dogs who don’t get along well with kids and other animals. Unfortunately, my building has a relatively steep fine for “excessive barking.” I ask that you please use your best judgement to determine if this is an issue for your pet.
