I just moved to New York and have been caring for a family member that has since recovered - meaning my schedule is very flexible and I’m looking to explore the area, get to know new pet friends!

Safety, trust & environment

I strongly believe in leaving things better than you found them - if your pets make a mess, chew up a toy or track mud in the house you can be sure I’ll clean it up so you don’t have extra work a when getting home from work or your vacation

Information Marin Z. would like to know about your pet

Generally I can get by on very minimal info - however, If there are any dietary restrictions, medication needs, sensitivities to people, places or things it’s great to know those in advance. Also any favorite games, toys or treats make things really easy to jump right in.

A typical day

I love playing with our pet friends, helping maintain any training challenges while adding some new ones where appropriate. Helping pups embrace their sense of smell with games and teaching new tricks is a favorite past time as well as getting all those zoomies out before the end of the day.

Cat care for all our feline friends

Cat care experience

I have been a proud cat mom, aunt and friend to multiple cats over the last 12 years - raising 2 fluffy cat babies from kittens! I’m very comfortable with caring for, feeding, playing and cleaning up after our feline fur babies! I look forward to meeting and getting to know your precious loved one!

Marin was exceptional! It was my husband and my first time away from our baby girls, and Marin made us feel very comfortable and safe with her the whole time. She followed our small nuances and made sure our babies were happy and very well cared for in our absence. We can’t thank her enough!

Marin was so communicative and very patient with Shadow, who can be tough to care for at times.

We love Marin so much! Zeus has been the most comfortable with her. She’s very attentive to his needs and caring! We hope to continue working with her ☺️

We love Marin! Marin watched our cat while we were abroad and everything went so smoothly. It was a joy to read the daily reports and see photos of Monty. Marin is meticulous about details and completely reliable. She kept everything super tidy and more importantly, was a loving and genuine presence for Monty. There is no doubt we’ll call Marin to watch Monty next time we go anywhere!

Each sitter joining needs to pass an identity verification. And by booking on Cat in a Flat, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
