Back in January, I hired Marilyn for some housekeeping who is amazing! After meeting my dog a few times, I could tell Marilyn really took to her and it soon became very apparent my dog also took to Marilyn. My dog is a very sweet, but shy, fearful, and cautious 8 year old pit bull mix who prefers to be with mom. But because I work full time she has had to spend 4 days a week in doggy daycare. In February, Marilyn offered to care for and walk my furbaby on her housekeeping days so we tried it starting at once a week. Marilyn now cares for my little furbaby 3 days a week along with keeping up with some housekeeping and we couldn't be happier with this arrangement. My shy little pup is so much happier, more energetic and outgoing, and has even made some new furry friends. Without question Marilyn is a natural with animals and has brought extensive knowledge and experience to my pet. We are so grateful she has come into our lives. She is kind, loving, and very patient. Her approach to pet care always comes with a gentle and calm temperament, quiet communication, and lot's of positive reinforcement. Marilyn is fully trustworthy, conscientious, wise, and has strong attention to details, whether it's for housekeeping or my furbaby's health and safety. In fact, Marilyn has added 3 more dogs to the furry pack and can handle all four dogs off leash with such ease.
