I work a full time job where I work from home Mondays, Tuesdays and Thursdays. On Wednesdays and Fridays I am in the office from 8:30 a.m. - 5:00 p.m. If my weekday schedule fits for you I am more than happy to pet sit. I am available on weekends as well. I can do dog walks on Mondays, Tuesdays, Thursdays and weekends! I am mainly doing pet sit at client’s home since I am currently living at my parent’s home.

Safety, trust & environment

When petting at client’s home, I always try to maintain everything organized and clean. Make sure I leave things where they belong. If they have a backyard I play with the pet outside if not I take them to walks around the neighborhood or park if I have permission. I cuddle and give them attention to make them feel comfortable. If they have a feeding schedule, I keep track of that. I also enjoy bathing them if requested and make sure I clean after.

Information Marlene P. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if your dog has any special needs or behaviors that I can count for. If they have a set schedule on eating/walks. If they can be outside or inside.

A typical day

I love to stimulate your dog both physically and mentally. If the dog likes it I will play fetch with them. If permitted taking them for walks to the park it’s always fun.

Pet care experience

I always been a dog lover since I was a kid, I always have had a dog at home. My father loves dogs as well and I would help him bath, feed and play with them. He taught me how to be patient, loving and caring with them. I currently have a mixture dog name Manchas. He is a very loving and caring pet who loves to play fetch.
