Dog lover without a dog!

Pet care experience

Hello there! My name is Marj and I have loved dogs for as long as I can remember. I have grown up helping neighbors, family, and friends with their pets—from walking, feeding, and general wellness—since I was 10. I understand that each pet is unique and requires different levels of care and attention, which is why I always take the time to get to know each pet's individual needs and preferences. Whether it's a long walk in the park, a game of fetch, or just some cuddle time on the couch, I always make sure to provide the best possible care for your furry friend. From energetic pups to senior dogs, I ensure tail-wagging adventures and the highest level of care. Trust, reliability, and open communication are my top priorities. Thank you for considering me as your pet care provider. I look forward to meeting you and your furry friend!

Friendly, punctual, and thorough! We felt extremely stress-free while away on a trip and having Marjerrie drop in to feed and play with our two xl dogs. Her communication and app updates were fantastic and all instructions were followed to the T! Even the smooth handling of the alarm system! Thanks Marjerrie, we'll be sure to look for her again in the future.

Marjerrie looked after our quirky dog & home for 4 days. She communicated with us regularly & sent pics of Archie, so we could see he was doing great. We’d definitely like Marjerrie to stay with Archie again in the future.

Marjerrie did a fantastic job taking care of Moon, our husky. They went on long walks and she was very responsive throughout the stay. She spent a lot of time playing with Moon and sent us regular updates. Overall, we would highly recommend her. Her pleasant, friendly nature was a definite plus! ☺️

Marj is great! Super positive attitude and our husky took to her immediately. I loved that Marj was able to slot us into her schedule at short notice.

Safety, trust & environment

When it comes to keeping pets safe in their own homes, I prioritize their security and well-being. Here are some key measures I take: 1. Secure Environment: I ensure that all doors, gates, and fences are properly closed and secure, preventing any chances of your pet wandering off or encountering potential dangers. 2. Comfort and Routine: I maintain your pet's regular routine, including feeding schedules, playtime, and any necessary medication. By providing consistency and familiar surroundings, I help reduce stress and ensure their comfort while you're away. 3. Emergency Preparedness: I am well-prepared for emergencies and have a plan in place. I have access to contact information for your preferred veterinarian and know how to handle common pet emergencies, ensuring a quick and appropriate response if needed.

A typical day

When pet sitting, I offer a variety of fun activities to keep your furry friend entertained and happy. Some of the activities I can provide include interactive play sessions, stimulating walks in the park, and engaging training exercises. Whether it's a game of fetch, a relaxing belly rub, or a fun scavenger hunt, I tailor the activities to suit your dog's preferences and energy levels. Your pup will have a blast and enjoy a delightful time filled with joy and excitement!

I am on a sabbatical so my schedule is relatively flexible. I am currently enrolled in a few creative classes that take place M-Th in the mornings so I can typically care for your pet most afternoons and evenings. If you would prefer care in the morning, please still free to message me, and perhaps we can work something out!
