Pet care experience
Hi there! My name is Marnae and I’m an animal enthusiast. I’ve been providing pet care for my own animals since first grade when a stray cat followed me home from the school bus stop and I convinced my mom that the cat and I were family. It turned out that she was pregnant, which was a huge life lesson for me. We took care of her medical needs, found great homes for all her babies, and she lived a long, healthy life by my side. Later on in life, I worked for a non-profit animal rescue for several years where I worked side by side with our behaviorist. I acquired an abundance of knowledge and it wasn’t too long before some of our adopters and training clients asked if I was available for walking and pet sitting. Word got around that I was available to care for pets, and my full time business was born! I live in Ventura with my three dogs and husband. We adore our dogs and can often be spotted out enjoying the beach lifestyle with them. We love hiking, going to the beach and hitting up a local restaurant or brewery from time to time. I’m proud to provide dog walking and pet care services within the community that I love so much. My goal is to provide your pets with an unbeatable level of care whether you are at work for the day or away on a trip. If you have any questions, please feel free to ask! I look forward to speaking with you soon!
Reviews
Marnae was awesome! Our little guy has never been watched by strangers. I can honestly say I was a little nervous. However, when Marnae arrived to meet our little guy he took to her right away. I knew he was in good hands. I would highly recommend Marnae. She is very kind, knowledgeable, trustworthy and intuitive to a pets needs. Will be requesting Marnae again in the future.
Marnae is awesome! She is professional, thorough, and knows how to take good care of your pets. She dropped in and fed our kitties for a couple days while we were gone and kept us well updated and worry free. Thanks, Marnae!
Marnae did so great watching our two cats while we were out of town!! They absolutely loved her. She sent great pics and updates, we will definitely being booking again!
Marnae is a professional with a ton of experience. She knew exactly what to do with our stubborn 8 year old and sent lots of beautiful pictures that gave us peace of mind. We’re so thrilled to have found her!

In addition to neighborhood walks, I love exploring parks and of course, the beach. Visiting new locations exposes dogs to new sights and smells and provides enrichment for their brains.
