Home Pet Sitter, Dogs Are Family 🐾

I’ve had dogs since I was a child, so caring for them comes naturally to me. I’m patient, loving, attentive, and very responsible. I have experience caring for dogs of all sizes, ages, and breeds, including dogs with different medical conditions that require extra attention and care. I’m home full-time, which allows me to give pets plenty of love, companionship, playtime, walks, and gentle belly rubs to help them feel safe and comfortable just like at home. I truly enjoy spending quality time with dogs and making sure they feel happy and relaxed while in my care. I do not use crates. Dogs in my home are treated like family. I also have a small dog of my own who is very calm, friendly, and well-socialized. Because of this, I can only accept dogs that are friendly and comfortable around other dogs.

Marlene, from day one, treats pets like family - not just animals she was watching. She takes the time to learn their routines, personalities, quirks, and even their favorite toys and hiding spots. She sends consistent updates with photos and thoughtful notes, giving owners complete peace of mind while they were away. What makes her special is her genuine love for animals. You can tell she connects with each pet individually and makes them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. If you need someone dependable, trustworthy, organized, and deeply compassionate with animals, Marlene is absolutely the person you want caring for your pets.

Safety, trust & environment

Pets are safe and comfortable in my home. I have a fully fenced backyard and supervise them at all times. My house is spacious, and the neighborhood is quiet, secure, and full of green areas for walks and play.

Pets

A typical day

While caring for dogs in my home, I provide them with fun and loving moments. We go on daily walks for exercise and exploration, play fetch to keep them active, give plenty of hugs and pets, and offer belly rubs to make them feel happy and comfortable.

I understand that every dog is different and has unique needs. I ask that owners let me know if their pet has any special requirements or requests, and I will be happy to accommodate them.
