Marlene Professional Pet Care

Pet care experience

Dear Pawparents, I am a professional pet sitter currently offering Dog/house sitting service. I am a devoted animal lover and I have a lot of experience with dogs, cats, rabbits, and fish. I provide a dog/house sitting service when you are on holiday. It is often better for many dogs, especially older or socially anxious ones, as it keeps them in familiar and more comfortable surroundings. As an added bonus, you get the visual security of someone being seen walking through your home, which can help deter squatters or vandals. • I feed, walk and groom your pets • I maintain security and I keep the house clean and tidy • I water all the house plants • I place rubbish outside for collections • I provide my own meals, and I do not smoke Do not hesitate to contact me for a personalised quote. (Sunday, Holidays and puppies rate may vary) IMPORTANT: I don’t do boarding in my house but I stay in your house. Rover doesn’t allow me to specify this in my service page, so I have to do it here. DSB Check, Insured with Pet Sanctuary, Certified CPR/Dog First Aid, Excellent references from my present clients upon request. I hope to hear from you and your pets, Best Regards, Marlene Serena ‘Marlene Dog Walking’ ************** PET/HOUSE SITTING bespoke service is booking fast. Please book your slot in advance as my calendar is getting booked quickly! Remember that I can give you a personalised quote once you contact me (depending on the service such as how many days you need me, how many walks etc etc) Marlene Dog Walking is growing and we have 2 new member of my team who can help you as well!

Marlene took care for more than 12 hours of our precious cutie Queenie. She let us know when she had arrived at the lobby of our hotel. From the first moment on we were sure we had made the right decision! Queenie needed some time to trust her but Marlene was very patient - with us and with Queenie. With every little bit Marlene did/said while she accompanied us the the Royal Albert Hall she showed her knowledge about dogs. We celebrated a wonderful 60th birthday because we knew Queenie was looked after by the best dog sitter you could imagine! We were relaxed not taking care of Queenie ourselves even though we had to protect Queenie from an aggressively attacking pit bull terrier the evening before which traumatised us all. Marlene listened to our anxieties, took them seriously and was able to distract our fears. Getting photos and information through the day was absolutely nice. We can´t highly enough recommend Marlene and we hope that she will still be available when the three of us travel to London again. THANK YOU, Marlene. Nicole & Juliane & Queenie

Marlene is quite literally the best dog sitter we have ever had. Lila, our 8 year old terrier mix has advanced kidney disease which means she doesn't eat well and has a very strict diet. Marlene took into account those parameters and hand fed Lila and reassured us during our 5 day holiday so we felt relaxed and knew Lila was being so well taken care of. She is clearly very knowledgeable about dogs and we have nothing but the greatest recommendation for Marlene and will continue to work with her!

This is the second dog that Marlene has sat for me. She is the ultimate professional and both of the dogs have loved her. She's so careful and caring and treats them as her own each time. Communication before and during the day was superb too. Please book her for your next sitting!
