Safety, trust & environment

I have a fenced yard and large garden, so your dogs can go outside anytime for the bathroom or just for enjoy different smells. My house is a stones throw from my local park, and Alexandra Palace is only a 18-minute walk away, or 5-minute drive. Dogs are welcome on the furniture, I have a big doggy bean bag, blankets, lots of balls/toys and two crates (medium and large) to hand in my home. I have baby-gated my front door should you have a bit of an escape artist, and my conservatory so that I can wipe dogs paws down when coming in from outside.

Information Marina Y. would like to know about your pet

I believe all pets, just like us, have unique personalities, and how wonderful that is! Please let me know if your pet/s have any specific needs, preferences, and medical or dietary requirements, and I’ll be happy to accommodate the best I can.

A typical day

I’ll be sure to give your pets tons of attention, let them out to run around my large garden and yard regularly, and take them for long walks in the many parks around my area. I also have dog puzzles that you hide treats inside, to mentally stimulate them.

Pet care experience

When I was raising my three kids, they could never have enough pets, so my house was always filled with fluffy friends and there was never a quiet moment. That’s how I’ve grown to like it. I had my pets from puppies and kitten through to seniors, my cat, Rosie, actually lived until 20-years-old. I now look after dogs full-time, so I am able to give all my attention, care, walks, cuddles and play to them. 😊

Marina is so kind and caring with Bean, she sends lots of photos and videos, Bean is very happy and excited whenever we drop her off. Marina is also reliable and friendly and communicative.

Marina is amazing and Darcy always has the best time! Marina sends us photos and videos regularly so we are always aware of what Darcy has been up to. While Darcy is glad to come home, she definitely has loads of fun at Marina’s so I’m sure she is a little sad to be leaving Marina’s.

Marina took wonderful care of Cookie, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience. From the start, she was warm, reliable, and clearly passionate about animals. She kept me updated with photos, which really put my mind at ease while I was away. Cookie came back happy, relaxed, and very well looked after. It’s obvious Marina gave her plenty of attention, care, and affection. I would absolutely trust her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and dependable dog sitter.
