We were so lucky to have found Marina to watch our two pups while we went to Mexico for a wedding!! She was responsive and communicative, making is extremely easy to coordinate schedules and logistics. While we were away, she provided such thoughtful, detailed updates and included pictures of our dogs having a blast on their daily walks. Marina is such a gem, I would absolutely book with her again in a heartbeat and recommend her to others. Our dogs loved her and her family too!

Marina was amazing! She cared for our little Chihuahua, Mari, with the love only a dog aficionado would provide. Marina sent us tons of pictures while we were away on vacation for 7 days. When we came home to pick up Mari, she couldn't stop kissing Marina with loving licks. We will use Marina every time we vacation, and we recommend you do the same! Thank you, Marina!

Although we didn’t use Marina’s services ( do to stairs that wouldn’t work for our dog with hip dysphasia), she was very approachable and quick with her correspondence. I would recommend her to friends when they are looking for someone to watch their dogs.

Marina took wonderful care of our Pomeranian while we were getting married and on our honeymoon! She sent frequent photos and updates, with daily walks and playtime with other dogs. She loved our dog and we will definitely book with her again!

Marina boarded our skittish elder dog, Carlos, at her home for 10 days while we were on vacation. He came back to us full of energy, confident, and happy to see us. He had more confidence and was less afraid of the world on his return to us under the nurturing care of Marina! She sent me daily pictures of their adventures and I could see the loving way he he looked at Marina by his gaze in the camera lens. She loves him back and now she brings him on here dog walking circuit twice weekly so they can hang out. We feel indebted to Marina enabling our little dog to be social and less afraid of the world!
