Pet care experience
Animals have always been huge in my life. I grew up spending much of my time on a farm, riding horses and doing barn chores. These days I share an apartment with my cat, Pierre. I also had my two beloved dogs, Joe and Alice, who lived to almost 16, and I was a primary caregiver through their senior years. Beyond my own pets, I’ve worked at a pet daycare and boarding facility, where I cared for dogs of all sizes, energy levels, and temperaments in a group setting. I’ve also been the trusted go-to dog walker and sitter for friends, family, and neighbors for years. From walks and playtime to the extra patience a senior dog needs, I tailor my care to what your dog is used to — whether they’re an energetic pup, a laid-back senior, or somewhere in between. I’m happiest when I’m around animals, reliable, and will treat your dog like family.

Reviews
I’ve trusted Marley with my dog, George, and I can say without hesitation that she provides exceptional care. She is incredibly attentive, responsible, and genuinely loves animals, which is obvious in the way she interacts with them. George is always excited to see her, and I have complete peace of mind knowing he’s in such capable and caring hands. Beyond being wonderful with pets, Marley is kind, dependable, and thoughtful in everything she does. She communicates well, pays attention to the little details, and consistently goes above and beyond. Anyone would be lucky to have Marley caring for their pets.
