BEST DOG WALKER YOUR PET WILL EVER HAVE!!!
Pet care experience
Hi :) I, as probably everyone on this app as well, love pets! From this app I was a dog walker for a cockapoo for about 2 and a half years. I walked her every morning during the week and would also do afternoons or weekends if I had the availability. I taught her how to walk of the leash since she was a puppy when I first got her. I had a family dog for 15 years who was by my side since I was two years old. She was a Schnoodle (poodle schnauzer mix) named Miss Ellie. She was a wild but also very classic lady haha. Due to being the puppy runt of her litter and being very shy in nature, we had to teach her how to get along with both dogs and people. My family and I trained her really well in which I learned how to take care of 'trickier' dogs. My family moved a lot from the US to Germany (where I’m originally from) to Shanghai and then to Tokyo where she sadly died 2 years ago. We always brought her along and in the end, I think she understood mandarin best. Since she has died I squeal every time I see a dog that my friends are already annoyed haha. Personally, I love to go on long walks! I go on a one and a half hour (at least) walk every day and would love a companion on the way. Big dog, small dog, old dog, young dog, goofy dog, anything I would appreciate. :) I miss having a cuddly companion around me so I would appreciate it if I could borrow your pet to fill the void of missing Miss Ellie.
Reviews
I've known Marleen for a few years now, and it's obvious she has a special place in her heart for dogs and animals. She grew up with a dog, but since moving to London she has consistently made an extra effort to include them in her life, whether it’s through dog walking or house sitting. She walked a dog daily for a year, and their bond was clear to me when I occasionally joined them. Marleen understands animals well, and I know that they're comfortable and happy with her. She is responsible, friendly, and very dependable! The dogs love her, and I can confidently recommend her to anyone seeking pet care.
Marleen has always been very lovely with Louie. She makes sure he feels comfortable and happy on his walks or when I leave him for daycare. He absolutely loves spending time with her and I feel very comfortable and happy with her service.

Safety, trust & environment
I have a spacious room with a balcony and a park very close to where I live. The dog would always have access to water and the ability to go outside.

Information Marleen W. would like to know about your pet
Please let me know if your animal has any special needs to I can ensure the best care. If they have a routine they prefer (timings to eat or go out) this will also be helpful to know. If you are training your dog to not be on the bed or couch let me know as well so I can make sure the training stick :).
A typical day
If I work from home I am in my flat from 9-5. Since I live close to a smaller park but also Regent’s Park I can go on long walks before work, during lunch, and after work.
