Pet care experience

Reliable Care, Tail Wags Guaranteed

I love all dogs and cats, big and small! But my real passion is for the odd balls, seniors, and ones that require more attention than most. I am able to care for special needs kiddos, like giving insulin, expressing incontinent babies, and administering medication.

Pets

Safety, trust & environment

Getting to know your pet and their schedule so that your pet will feel more comfortable. I'm a big walker, so if your pup is up for it, two walks a day to get their energy out is one of my favorite activities. Just loving your pet as if their my own is my number one priority!

Marina is my go to girl for our golden doodle. He has anxiety as well as energy to burn and she gives him terrific care and attention. He is always excited to see her! I feel at ease knowing he is in her hands. And the fact that she can make house visits so her can stay comfortable in his familiar home is extremely valuable.

Marina was so good with Ridge! I really appreciate the extra care and attention she put into the service, giving him walks, playtime and cuddles. She also was very diligent with the bites about his eating and bathroom habits - and provided lots of cute photos! I really felt peace of mind knowing our doggy was in such good hands.

Marina was absolutely wonderful with Maily while I was away on my trip! She went above and beyond by sending me pictures and videos every day at different times, which gave me so much peace of mind. I loved that she also took Maily out for walks during her stay, making sure she got plenty of attention and exercise. It was clear from the start that she was very caring, expressive, and attentive to her needs. I truly felt like Maily was in the best hands, and I would definitely book with her again. Highly recommend!🤍🐾🐶🤍🐾🐶🤍

Marina is an amazing pet sitter! She has taken care of our two dogs several times while we’ve been out of town, and they absolutely love her. She truly loves animals, and it shows in the care she provides. She has worked for a pet rescue organization and has worked as a veterinary tech, so she has incredible experience. I highly recommend Marina for all your pet care needs.

Marina has watched both dogs and cats for me. The animals all loved her and she takes excellent care of them. She spends quality time taking them on walks or playing with them. My animals are always happy and healthy on my return.

We couldn’t ask for a better dog sitter. Her background working and volunteering at a dog shelter really shows—she understands dogs and always puts their well-being first. She has such a natural love for animals and you can see how quickly they connect with her. On top of that, she’s a genuinely kind person who takes wonderful care of both your pets and your home. Her personality is a ray of sunshine, and it gives such peace of mind knowing your dogs are not only cared for, but truly loved while you’re away.
