Safety, trust & environment

I can care for your baby however you feel most comfortable and don't mind special requests or requirements, whatever keeps them safe and happy! I have experience with all sizes and ages of dogs.

Information Marlana M. would like to know about your pet

Any special needs and/or circumstances such as medical or aggression issues are great to know in advance so I can prepare accordingly. I don't mind.

A typical day

Again, I am here to make you and your fur baby happy so I can do walks at the park as often as needed or stay home/in your area if that's more your speed. I love to stay active so games/walks are great but we can adjust however is needed.

Pet care experience

I am a 37 year old animal lover who works in the service industry with a flexible schedule and adventurous lifestyle. My dog, Kiteboarding and camping are my top 3 passions in life. I volunteer for the rescue I got my dogs from and walk many of them on Monday's. Serving is great but doesn't always pay the bills and I have several friends who have loved sitting through rover, and I love dogs and cats so it seemed like a no brainer. I hope to meet you and your furry companions soon!

Marlana tried really hard, even though Mr. Wiggles was his usual difficult self. She thought he was afraid of her when it was just him being him. She made an extra effort and came back to let him out after I let her know that he does not like to cooperate. Finally got him out and he went pee. Thank you for the extra effort!

Marlana was terrific with our 5 month old puppy. Her communication and personality were wonderful and we look forward to working with her in the future.

Marlana was great with our dog! They went for long walks and Marlana let me know how Poppy did. On time, friendly and worked around our wacky schedule, would definitely hire Marlana again!

Love knowing my babies are in good hands when I'm away.

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.
