Caring, Loving & Compassionate

I was raised with pets. Since my childhood, I have had cats and dogs. I have also potty trained, provided basic training (walking on leash, not pulling, socialization) for dogs. I am a dog grandma to a cockapoo and pitbull who adore me and drive their parents crazy when I am around because I spoil them. I have experience with dogs, cats and some farm animals (cows, chicken) from my yearly summer visits to Guatemala. Like Children, pets take to me because of my loving nature. I am a nurturer and enjoy the company of animals. There seems to be genuine connections. I enjoy their company, cuddling and talking to them. I will treat your babies as if they were my own. Although, I may not allow pets on furniture, if they are used to it, there is always an exception to the rule. They will always feel as if they were at home. Let's meet and I can guarantee your pet will have a great connection with me. I am available to pet sit at your home or mine. Either way, "mi casa" will be "their casa." I don’t mind cat sitting. However, it would be best to care for them in your home as I recently found out, my live in boyfriend is allergic.

Marsha was very accommodating and responsive. There was an issue with the timing of when we would be able to drop our cats off but Marsha was able to work with us to figure out a time that worked which was great. She provided daily picture updates and it looked like our cats felt right at home with her and her family. Her apartment was well kept and when we picked our cats up, she packed all of their things for us so all we had to do was put our cats in their carriers. Highly recommended!

Went away for a week and I was worried about my 15 year old dog’s well being. He is deaf and nearly blind now and needs extra care. He bonded instantly with Marsha when they first met and she gave him the same love and care we give to him. It’s a relief to have someone that can care for him while we take vacation. I think he missed her more than us!

Marsha was great! We were gone for 8 days and she sent picture and video updates daily, which helped with missing our fluffy muppet of a dog. He was so well adjusted when we got home- almost like he barely noticed we were gone! We’ll definitely have Marsha dogsit again the next time we’re away. The peace of mind knowing he’s happy and in good hands makes vacation that much better.

Whenever I go away I only trust Marsha to dog and car sit for me. I would recommend her to anyone who is looking for a trustworthy person with their pets.
