Pet care experience

Hi pet parents!

My name is Marley and I am a student at SFA. I am in town in Houston for the Summer. I love all animals and treat every pet like my own! I’m comfortable with feeding routines, walks, playtime, and lots of cuddles. I’m patient, dependable, and always make sure pets feel safe and happy. I also keep owners updated with photos and messages of your pet!

Safety, trust & environment

I am open to instructions on how you would like me to care for your dog. I do not mind animals on my bed or furniture. At my apartment, They have a dog park, outdoor grooming station, and lots of open grass for bathroom breaks. I also can take dogs for walks in my neighborhood and to other dog parks!

House Sitting • Jun 26, 2026

Marlene was wonderful! I highly recommend booking with her! She took care of everything in my home while I was away and my kitties loved her. I am always a little anxious about leaving my babies but she is very trustworthy and handled it all. I really appreciated the sweet photos and updates, and came home to a clean house - she even did the laundry which was not at all expected! We love Marlene and will absolutely book with her again!! Thank you so much!
