Doggie Paradise 🐶🐾 huge play yard

Pet care experience

I have always loved animals. Since a young child my family always had many kinds of animals. I’m so blessed to be able to have a farm with lots of animals in my barn. At the time I don’t have any dogs but I have a horse,chickens,goats and two ducks that just had babies. My property is one acre so the dogs have lots of room to run and play. I treat the dogs as I would my own.They get lots of love and attention. I’m home full time so they’re always with me. The dogs are in a home environment.They get to be in my home and get taken out every two hours in the day for playtime. My first priority is that they’re happy , healthy and safe. I have a huge fenced in yard and a smaller yard for small dogs with tot pools and lots of toys for their enjoyment. When their in my home their either running around playing with toys or lounging listening to classical music for dogs. And their owners look forward to getting updates and photos and looking at post and videos on my Instagram page. My Instagram page is : marleneasmith It always makes me happy to see the dogs so excited on a return visit to stay here.

Marlene was our angel. She took such great care of my dad's dog while he was in the hospital. She always answered our calls and texts right away and sent tons of puctures to share with my Dad, and we were always welcome to come and visit. Not to mention, she has this great fenced in yard area fixed up for the dogs, it has all kinds of fun things for them. Marlene is the best, your dog is in good hands with her.

Marlene was wonderful! She sent pictures daily, and we could tell that Maggie was getting lots of exercise, fun, and love. We look forward to using Marlene again to watch Maggie!

Marlene loves our Golden Retriever, Bailey, as if she’s her own! She sends pictures of Bailey to us throughout her stay and it makes us feel so good that she’s so well taken care of. Bailey goes crazy when Marlene arrives at the door to pick her up. That’s how I know she loves her time with Marlene. Marlene’s large yard is the perfect place for any dog to run and play. We always feel like Bailey gets to be on vacation while we are too. We highly recommend Marlene!

Our 72-pound dog loved her stay with Marlene in her spacious property. Marlene had great accommodations for her canine friends and was very conscientious about making sure our dog was comfortable. She went beyond the call of duty in caring for our dog, including diligently grooming her. Marlene sent many photos and kept us informed about how our girl was doing. Our dog was nicely spoiled and had a nice vacation while we were away. Will definitely use Marlene again.

Information Marlene S. would like to know about your pet

I only take well behaved ,house broken ,non Aggressive dogs. At this time I'm not taking certain breeds due to my insurance. Females must be spayed and males neutered. I don’t take any dogs with anxiety issues. Please make sure your pets are wormed, no fleas or ticks. I ask the owner to inform me of any allergies or any thing that’s important I need to know about your dog. I need to have copy of vaccination record before your dogs arrival.

A typical day

I live in a beautiful equestrian community called Orange Park Acres. We have many wonderful trails to walk dogs on. I have a huge yard and arena that the dogs love to play ball or frisbee. Summer days are hot so they can cool off in the kiddie pool or run through the sprinkles. In my home or converted garage dog room I always keep temperature comfortable for dogs. When in my home they run around and play with other dogs or toys Some dogs like to sleep after play time and listen to music for dogs.
