Animal lover with flexible schedule

Pet care experience

I recently owned two big dogs that were my pride and joy. Since loosing them to old age last year, I have been fortunate enough to sit for a number of friends, family and new and repeat clients. I understand how important it is for an owner to feel secure about their pet(s) while traveling. I spend a lot of time with each dog, walking, playing and keeping it company. I am comfortable taking your pet on hikes and to the beach if you request. I work from home so they are my focus while they are in my care. I'm a very clean and quiet retired graphic designer and also work in sales. I will take great care of your home. References available upon request.

Marlene watched Hershey, a 4 month old chocolate lab while we went out of town. Hershey still getting house trained, teething, requires attention, loves to snuggle and play. I was worried that I would not be able to find someone who would have the patience to provide him all his needs. So blessed to have met Marlene through Rover.com. Marlene is the most trustworthy and compassionate dog lover. She provided the nurturing needs that Hershey needed, both at our house and hers.

I have known Marlene for many years and can attest that she is a caring and loving person, who treats her dogs with so much love and attention. If I were a dog, I would do anything to have her take care of me. Your animal/s will be in great care with Marlene.
