I work from home part-time as a translator and writer, so I have a lot of flexibility to tailor my schedule to your dog's needs. My daily schedule involves doing enrichment and exercise activities with my own dog throughout the day (sniffaris, training sessions, running, games, etc.), and I'd plan on doing the same with your dog too.

Pet care experience

I've fostered all kinds of dogs since high school - from senior couch potatoes, to high-drive working breeds, to shy puppies. I raised my German shorthair Togo since he was nine weeks old, and I also help take care of my partner's 10-year-old dog who takes daily medication. I love getting to know a dog's unique needs and personality.

Marisa is great to work with! She has a strong attention to detail and is very responsive. She took great care of my dog and I would use her again!

Marisa did a great job handling three-month-old Basie’s first time away from his home and family. She even took the time to do a meet-and-greet between her dog and Basie ahead of time to make sure they would get along together. She also made sure that Basie had fun and got to do some safe exploring and socializing. I would definitely feel comfortable having her look after Basie in the future.

Marisa is great with all kinds of animals—from rambunctious puppies to older dogs and cats with medical needs. She easily adapts to different personalities and behaviors, too. My reactive dog is completely at ease with her, and I’ve seen her calm, confident handling firsthand. Your pets will be in great hands with Marisa!
