Safety, trust & environment
I live in a modern apartment at 800 Carlyle in Old Town Alexandria 🌿. I only host 1 dog at a time 🐶 and work from home 🏡, so your pup will receive plenty of attention and supervision throughout the day. My pug Pedrita is friendly and comfortable around other dogs 🐾.

Information Marlene B. would like to know about your pet
Let me know if your pup has any special needs, quirks, or routines I should be aware of 🐾. I prefer dogs that are friendly with other dogs since I have a sweet pug named Pedrita at home 🐕
A typical day
A typical day starts with a quick morning potty break 🌞🐾, followed by breakfast and fresh water. We'll then enjoy a half-hour neighborhood walk 🌳🐕. If your dog loves running, they can join me on my morning run 🏃♀️🐶. During the day, your pup can relax with me while I work from home, enjoying toys, treats, and little play breaks 🎾🐾. Around noon, we'll head out for another walk . In the evening, after dinner, your pup can sleep comfortably in my room if you'd like 💤🐶.

Pet care experience
Hi! I’m Marlene 🐾 and I’m excited to offer loving, attentive care for your furry friend 🐶. I’ve been a proud pug mom to Pedrita for 12 years 💕. We’ve been through everything together, from ear infections and tummy troubles to emergency surgery, so I’m very comfortable handling different needs with patience and care 🩺. I work from home 🏡, so your pup will have constant supervision and companionship throughout the day. I provide three walks daily, morning, midday, and evening 🐕🦺🚶♀️, plus plenty of love, structure, and calm energy in between. I’m living at 800 Carlyle Apartments, a secure mid-rise building with easy elevator access and beautiful walkable areas nearby. There are plenty of safe sidewalks and green spaces around for regular exercise and fresh air 🌿. I’ve also rescued and cared for stray dogs and cats back in the Dominican Republic 🇩🇴, so animals have always been a huge part of my life ❤️. Pedrita is very friendly 🐾, so I do ask that your dog is comfortable around other dogs. I only take one client at a time 🐕 to ensure each pup gets my full attention and care. I can’t wait to welcome your furry family member and keep you updated daily with photos and videos 📸🐾.
Reviews

Marlene was a fantastic sitter. I have a senior dog who is both blind and hard of hearing, and her experience with older dogs was invaluable. She sent multiple updates each day, with both photos and updates to Teddy's schedule. Teddy was clearly comfortable with Marlene. I will definitely call on her again the next time we're out of town.

Marlene is amazing! Julie loves staying with her. Marlene was great taking care of Julie while we were away for the weekend. ❤️🐾

Marlene took exceptional care of our dog while we were away. She kept us updated with thoughtful, well-timed photos and messages that gave us complete peace of mind. It was clear our pup was happy and in great hands. We highly recommend Marlene and would gladly book with her again! Thank you, Marlene!

Marlene did a great job watching our sweet baby girl, Julie. She kept us updated with frequent photos and videos and loved on Julie like she was one of her own 🐾❤️
