Information Marlene D. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if your pet has any special needs, medical conditions, or specific behaviors I should be aware of. Information about feeding routines, preferences, and energy level is also very helpful. My goal is to provide personalized care for each pet.

A typical day

A typical day includes walks, playtime, and mental stimulation activities. I enjoy keeping pets active and happy by exploring the neighborhood, visiting nearby parks, and engaging them with toys and games. I also make sure they have time to rest and feel relaxed.

Pet care experience

At home we have always had pets and that is why I have experience in their care. I have also taken care of relatives' pets from birth until they have become adults.

Marlene took great care of my two pups. They came home happy! She provided updates and photos and was very communicative.

This was my first time using a cat sitting service. Marlene was GREAT. She treated my cats wonderfully. She responded to my messages and sent me pictures of my babies. Everything I asked of her was done for them and she watched all (5) of my babies. She is AWESOME. I would definitely recommend her and book with her again.

She did an amazing job caring for my dogs while I was away. She kept me updated, sent plenty of pictures, and made me feel comfortable the entire time. My dogs looked happy and well cared for. I would definitely use her again and highly recommend her!

Marlene was most excellent! She cared for our dog while we were in an emergent position! She communicated with us sending pictures and text! Thank you look forward to to using her in the future 💕
