Hey there! I’m Marianna, your friendly neighborhood pet sitter with a heart as big as my laugh (and trust me, it’s a loud one!). I may be in my 40s, but I’m forever 26 at heart! Originally from the hustle and bustle of city life, I moved to beautiful Australia in 2009 and found my little slice of paradise on the coast in 2020. When I’m not managing a café during the day (I wrap up around 2 PM) you can find me meditating, doing yoga, or hitting the gym. I’m all about beach walks, delicious food, and the perfect cup of coffee. Not a party animal, I prefer my home to be a cozy sanctuary, and I promise to treat yours with the same love and care. Animals have always had a special place in my heart, and I’ve been the go-to pet caretaker for my friends. I adore spending time at the dog beach, watching those furry bundles of joy run free and playfully splash around. I’m comfortable with all sizes of dogs, but I’ll be honest—I prefer not to care for puppies. They’re adorable, but they need a bit more guidance, and my mornings are usually busy. Rest assured, I’m clean, tidy, and have a soft spot for pot plants and good tunes. As a house sitter, I’m excited about the opportunity to meet new people and their adorable pets! I’ve made the decision not to renew my lease, embracing a bit more freedom in my life. My goal is to find longer house sitting opportunities while I figure out my next adventure. I pride myself on being reliable and respectful, and I’ll treat your home and fur baby just like my own. After my workday, you can count on me to shower your pets with love, playtime, and plenty of cuddles. I absolutely adore taking dogs to the beach, watching them run and frolic in the sun. It’s my happy place, and I can’t wait to share that joy with your furry friends! I’ve spent most of my time caring for dogs, and I absolutely love it! Back in Germany, I was a proud pet parent to a Great Dane and a Doberman, along with a few cats and birds. Animals have always been a big part of my life. For years, I took care of my friends' pets, and about a year ago, I decided to make it official by using a pet sitting app. It’s been a wonderful journey, and I’ve enjoyed every moment! While I’ve had pets stay at my place, I now prefer to care for your furry friends in their own familiar environment. It allows them to feel more comfortable and relaxed while you're away. I also have a passion for pot plants and basic gardening, so you can rest assured that your green friends will be in safe hands too! 😊 If you’re looking for a trustworthy companion to care for your home and pets while you’re away, I’d love to meet you and your furry friends!
