I work only three nights a week at Jersey Shore hospital, so I’m very flexible with any scheduling needed. I live right in Ocean Grove so I can be anywhere in a jiffy. I take long walks daily and am happy to add a companion.

Safety, trust & environment

I do not have any pets in my home currently, but I often take pet sitting jobs for friends and family. I stay overnight or do stop ins depending on what the owner would like. When I was a nanny I cared for the family’s dog Gryff who you will find in my profile photo. He would cry when I left. We would take naps together. We would go on long walks, play fetch for what seemed like hours, and go swimming with the kids. Your pet will never not feel the love from me.

Information Marley C. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if there are any behaviors I need to look out for, anxiousness, lack of socialization with other dogs etc. I’ll need to know if there are any medications or routines I need to keep up with as well as allergies.

A typical day

Long walks on the beach with some fetch is always fun for the pups! Where I live there are plenty of places to walk and sniff, and if your pup is feeling social there are a ton of friendly dogs in my neighborhood to meet. As for kitties, my cat back home loves watching critters on the tv and chasing a fuzzy toy, I would be happy to bring some along with me.

From squirrels to dogs I’ve done it

Pet care experience

Growing up with a veterinary nurse as a grandmother, I learned all skills needed to care for your pet. When I was young I would pretend I was on a farm going around filling all the bowls of food for the 11 cats and two dogs. I would go out to the garage and wait for the strays so I could give them food, water, and treats. I helped care for the kittens that needed bottle feeds. I helped administer medications to the dogs that were ill. Trained the dogs as needed. Until I had my own pets to look after. I took great pride in giving them all the love and loyalty I had. I’m young but the respect I have for animals is immeasurable.

Marley took excellent care of our senior Yorkie for a week in our home. She gave us updates and pictures, and we were able to enjoy our vacation knowing he was in great hands! Will definitely be booking again.

This was my first time using Marley to care for my kitties. From the meet and greet to the drop in visits she was really great! My kitties are my babies and I felt 100% comfortable knowing she was going to take great care of them for me. I will definitely use her again and would recommend her to anyone who wants top notch care for their fur babies!!
