Hi, my name is Marie. I moved to Ireland last year to start Veterinary school at UCD. I'm currently in my second year, and I'm loving it.
I would love to talk to you about sitting and walking your pet. Unfortunately, I cannot have a pet at my place, and I'm missing having furry friends around. I would love to sit for you to be able to play with some cute animals again😊.
I have been around dogs since I was born. My family had two dogs growing up, and I was raised to take care of them at a young age. I have dog sat for others, including for people with multiple dogs. I am comfortable watching and walking multiple dogs at a time. I have also watched my friends cats, and horses.
I am comfortable with all species and a variety of temperaments and behaviors. Both of my dogs growing up were rescues, so I am very okay with nervous animals. I am more than okay with taking the time for your pet to be comfortable around me. I understand how much your pet means to you so I always want the animal to be happy if I'm watching them.
Unfortunately, my lease prohibits me from having pets at my house, so I would only be able to take care of your pets in your own home. I am available on weekends at any time, and weekday evenings after 5. I have classes during the week, but I may be able to do a lunch walk or check-in depending on the day and time.
I will take dogs for a 30 minute to a 1 hour walk depending on owner preference, and dogs ability. I will take the dogs on walks near your home. Depending on the location, I can take them to a park, the beach or just around your neighborhood on sidewalks. While I am with your pet I can administer both oral and injectable medications, and groom your animal. I will follow the training you have for your pet, but I do not train pets. During home visits, I will stay with your pet for 30 minutes to an hour. I can take them outside, feed them, and give them attention. During weekend house sitting, I can stay in the house for the entirety of the time I am watching the house. If I am house sitting during the week, I can stay in the house from 5pm to 8am. When I am house sitting, I can water plants, and bring mail and packages inside. I will keep the house locked at all times, whether I am in the house or not.
I hope to hear from you soon! 😊
Full refund if canceled before 12:00 p.m. one day before the booking, 50% refund afterward.
No refund is payable if the booking is canceled on or after the start date.
Note: All times are based on the sitter’s time zone
Marie is exceptional with my little pup (6 months old), Aurie. She has been very reliable and flexible to our needs, especially with such a high energy young dog. I also know that Aurie really enjoys her, which gives me lots of peace of mind. I highly recommend Marie.
