Hi! I’m Marietta, and animals have honestly always been a huge part of my life. I grew up surrounded by them — from horses and guinea pigs to our family dog Lana, a Labrador-Pointer rescue who has been with us for around nine years.

Living with Lana has taught me a lot about dogs, especially that every dog has their own personality and needs. She can be a little challenging at times, so I’m very comfortable reading body language, staying patient and calm, and giving dogs both the physical exercise and mental stimulation they need. Over the years we’ve done everything from dog school and agility to tricks, games and lots of long walks together.

I genuinely just love spending time with dogs — whether that means an energetic adventure outside, playing and exploring, or simply keeping them company and giving them plenty of cuddles.

I recently moved to Sydney from Germany and, although I’m here on a Working Holiday Visa, I’ll be staying in Sydney for at least a year. I’d absolutely love to find some regular furry friends during that time and build a relationship where both you and your dog feel completely comfortable with me. 🐾
