Pet care experience

Experienced pet care

I have pet sat many different animals over the years. Sugar gliders, bunny’s, dogs, cats. I even had be in charge once to give a very old cat its medicine using shots while caring for it. I once taught two dogs how to be comfortable walking with a leash while boarding them for two weeks. The owner was very happy that she could now take them on walks when I returned them. I have a big yard for any dogs to run around in and a house big enough for any pet. Im very aware and understanding that a new environment for your fur baby can be scary so I plan on making the stay as comfortable as I can for them. I am very attentive and able to pick up if a dog is anxious and have the experience of how help them feel safe and calm. I also understand leaving a pet with someone can be scary for the owner so I welcome meet and greets to help you feel more comfortable. I will also provide pictures and video as frequently as you want. I love all animals and will care for any pets as if they were my own.

I highly recommend Marisa! She was great with our two pups. She was very mindful of our small dog being an escape artist and she was so patient with our 5 month old puppy. She took great care of them! She even sent pics and a video of them playing and going for a walk. Our dogs seemed happy and comfortable in her home when we picked them up. All around it was a good experience with Marisa!

Marisa took care of our elderly cat that needed daily medication. She came to our home daily while we were vacationing. It’s hard to find a pet sitter willing to administer that level of care, and is trustworthy in our home. So we were extra thankful we found Marisa!!

Marisa is great with our 2 fur babies! We have used her several times to keep our dogs when we are of town for a weekend, and twice for week-long vacations. Now they get excited to go see Marisa! She’s great with them, and it’s nice to not worry when we’re traveling because we know they’re safe and having fun! Plus, they returned better leash-trained than before we dropped them off!

Safety, trust & environment

I have a large fenced in backyard good enough for any dog to run around in. I also have a pretty good sized sunroom in the backyard with overhead fan that I like to frequently relax in everyday and the sunroom screen door has a doggie door attached to it so any dog can hang out with me in there. I also have a large enough house for any pet.

A typical day

If I’m watching a dog, I love to take them on walks where they can sniff around and get some good exercise. I especially love trails that are beautiful but clean and are not too crowded. I also love playing fetch with dogs, but if they are not into that that is OK because I also love just hanging out with the dog if that’s all it wants.

Let me know if your dog has any special needs or behaviors that would be important for me to be aware of. I wanna make sure your dog is completely comfortable and that you are comfortable.
