Pet care experience
I was born with a passion and love for dogs! I’ve had pups in my life since childhood, and I just couldn’t imagine living without them. I know how much they give to us, so I always want to give back to them! I became a pet sitter to make sure that every pup in need has all the love and affection they need to thrive. Plus, I know how difficult it can be to be away from your best friend, so I’m here to make that time as easy as possible! I’ve been a long-time dog owner in several different capacities. Not only have I helped raise dogs, I’ve also rescued pups and fostered other rescues until they found their forever homes. It’s always been a very rewarding experience to raise and nurture dogs, so becoming a pet sitter was a natural decision for me. I have experience boarding, sitting, and walking! Although I’ll be the primary caregiver for your pup, I currently live with my parents and sister. That means that our pup will always love lots of friends around to play with. We all love having dogs around and have a very welcoming environment to bring them into. We live in Astoria, which is a very dog- and family-friendly neighborhood. My number one priority is to make you and your pup feel completely comfortable and well taken care of. For my human clients, communication is key! I’ll always send regular check-ins so you can know just how your pooch is doing, which will also include pictures for a view into the fun we’ve been having together. For my canine clients, I’ll always go the extra mile to make sure they feel at home, healthy, and happy. Please let me know how I can make your dog’s dreams come true because I’m always happy to go the extra mile!
Reviews
Marlene is absolutely amazing with our cats. She is the only person we'll book! Our cats love her, her communication is great, & she's really gone above and beyond for us! We appreciate Marlene so much!
Marlene has done a wonderful job with Cedric. We are well pleased and so is Cedric.
I received lots of pictures and texts from Marlene, which was great. She seemed to enjoy her time with him and he quickly warmed up to her. He looked like a happy dog.
Marlene took great care of Maui. She sent lots of pictures and spent good time with Maui petting and playing with her.

Information Marlene P. would like to know about your pet
A healthy pup is a happy pup! We’ll spend lots of our time together exercising and getting out into nature. I love to explore, so we’ll make sure to see the sights and smells around town. I love to visit dog parks to socialize with other pups, so your pup and I will definitely make sure to find some new puppy pals to play with together. But I’m always happy to meet your pup on their energy level, whether that be tons of exercise or just cuddling up together on the couch!
A typical day
Some things I like to learn ahead of time: - Would you like to schedule a meet-and-greet before the stay? - What’s your preferred method of communication? - Does your pup have any health issues that need to be tended to? For instance, dietary restrictions, medicine, or behavior triggers? - Do you have a vet nearby that you trust? - Is your dog spayed/neutered? - Does your pup like to stick to a given schedule, like regular walks in the morning and evening? - What does your pup do well around? What does your pup try to avoid? - What’s the best way to spoil your pup?
