About Maryna

I love all animals without exception since my childhood. Hello! My name is Marina. I have had cats throughout my life and have been around dogs my entire life as well. I have had also smaller pets such birds, mice, and fish. I shared my life with my beloved male German Shepherd for 13.5 years, who recently passed away. During his life, I personally trained him, teaching basic obedience and good behavior, which gave me valuable experience in understanding dogs and their needs. Having cared for a large, strong dog, I am confident and comfortable walking dogs of all sizes, including powerful and energetic breeds. Losing him made me realize just how much I miss spending time with dogs, especially going on long walks, giving them attention and communicating with them.

When I moved to the Netherlands, I brought with me my two cats and my large German Shepherd because they are my family.

In Ukraine, I spent many years rescuing animals from the streets, taking care of kittens and other pets, feeding them, providing daily care, and finding loving homes for them. I was also a volunteer for animal protection, helping animals in need and raising awareness about their welfare. Additionally, I have experience looking after friends’ and relatives’ cats and dogs, ensuring they are happy, safe, and comfortable.

I would love to continue this work here in the Netherlands, providing attentive, responsible, and loving care to pets. Whether it’s walking dogs, visiting pets at their homes, or simply spending quality time with them, I am committed to making each animal feel safe and cherished.

I am reliable and responsible, and I treat every animal as if they were my own. My goal is to provide owners with peace of mind knowing that their pets are in caring and experienced hands.

I can take dogs on walks starting from 30 minutes and longer. I am also able to drive pets to parks or the beach by car, with additional charge to cover fuel and parking costs.

I look forward to meeting you and your pats!
