“Animals are so innocent, so sweet. And If I don't look after them, who will? I just hope my chickens aren't too upset when I take their eggs.”
— Marnie

Marnie is a villager who lives at Marnie's Ranch in the northeast area of Cindersap Forest, near the southwest entrance to Pelican Town.

Marnie runs her own shop at Marnie's Ranch from 9:00 AM to 4:00 PM each day, except Monday and Tuesday, although the building is still open on these days. She sells animals and animal supplies.

Relationships

Marnie lives with her niece, Jas, and her nephew, Shane. When it is not raining, she exercises with Caroline, Jodi, Emily, and Robin on Tuesdays at Pierre's General Store.

Mayor Lewis and Marnie have a very close relationship. Although Marnie claims to be single during the Flower Dance, Lewis and Marnie's 6-heart event confirms that they are dating. Lewis visits Marnie's Ranch to attend to her "business needs" on occasion, and the two can often be found drinking together at the Stardrop Saloon in the evening. In one of the story quests, Lewis asks you to find his lucky purple shorts, which can be found in Marnie's bedroom.

Item Description
  Hay (30) Dear (Name),

You're such a good neighbor I thought I'd send over some animal feed to make your job easier. Keep it up!

-Marnie

Three Hearts I

 

Leave your farmhouse between 6:30am - 9:30am.

Details 
Marnie greets the player as they come out of the farmhouse. She will tell the player that she is trying to train her goats to say "hello" but they will not cooperate unless she has their favorite food, Cave Carrots. Marnie asks the player to bring one to her ranch between 9 AM and 5 PM. If the player enters Marnie's Ranch during that time (opening hours may contradict this) with a Cave Carrot in their inventory, a cutscene will occur with the player giving Marnie the carrot. This cutscene will trigger regardless of whether or not Marnie is home.

Three Hearts II

 

After reaching 3 hearts, Marnie sends you a recipe in the mail.

Pale Broth Dear neighbor,

when I'm not taking care of animals I like to experiment in the kitchen. Since we've become friends I want to share some recipes with you.

I hope you like this!

-Marnie

Six Hearts

 

On a sunny day, enter the town between 7pm and 11pm.

Note: Only happens if Lewis is also at 6 hearts.

Details 
You will appear behind Lewis' house. Lewis and Marnie are talking by the river about making their romance public. Lewis says it would undermine his authority, while Marnie says he's too concerned for his job. In the end, Marnie says she'll keep their relationship a secret. Afterwards, you'll pop up and scare both Lewis and Marnie. Lewis asks you if you heard anything, and you are presented with a choice.
  • Yes... but I'll keep it a secret. (+50 friendship with Lewis.)
  • Yes... and I'm going to tell everyone. (-100 friendship with Lewis.)

If you choose to keep the secret, Lewis will thank you. If you say you'll tell everyone in town, Lewis will cry. Afterwards, Marnie will ask why you were behind the house, and your character will run away, leaving the two alone and confused.

Seven Hearts

 

After reaching 7 hearts, Marnie sends you a recipe in the mail.
