The best care for your best friend!
Pet care experience
Growing up with a veterinarian mom, I've loved animals my whole life and have been around them all (dogs, cats, chinchillas, snakes, bunnies and more). I'm born and raised in LA and after spending the last 7 years in DC, I’m happy to be back home while I pursue my MBA. I have tons of experience through owning, adopting, and fostering animals during which I've encountered animals with many different temperaments and needs. I feel very comfortable caring for any animals that need any additional medications or treatments. My primary goal is to ensure your pets feel comfortable and safe!
Reviews
Marisa is our go-to sitter for our dog! She’s so good with our Wiley and manages his reactivity perfectly on walks, sends us so many photo updates of him, and genuinely puts us at ease when we travel and have to leave our boy behind. She plays little games with him (he’s a very active aussie!) and tries her best to keep his routine as normal as possible while we gone. We’re so grateful for her and highly recommend booking her to watch your pets!
Marisa is our go-to dog sitter at this point! Our anxious dog Wiley is comfortable with her and she sends us frequent updates of her house sitting stays with him. We’ll definitely be booking her again!
Marisa was so helpful with our pup!
Marisa was great! She sent us great updates and kept our Wiley comfortable and happy. We’ll definitely be booking her again :)

Skills
Safety, trust & environment
I’ve owned pets my whole life and am very comfortable around animals. I’m completely okay with sharing my space with them and giving them all of the attention they need to thrive, which of course includes toys and treats! While in your home, I will always leave it better than you left it and I’m very mindful of your pet's personal boundaries. I can promise you that I will always prioritize their well-being and safety above all.
Information Marisa F. would like to know about your pet
Is your pet allowed on furniture? Are they crate trained and house trained? Do they get along with other animals/people? Any trauma or fears that I should know about? Does the dog have separation anxiety (barking or howling if let alone)? Does the dog like dog parks? How long can the dog be left alone if needed?
A typical day
I love going on walks so adding a pup into the mix is an added bonus! Please let me know how long your animals need to be walked and your usual routes.

Availability
I’m happy to adapt my schedule to whatever routine your pet is most comfortable with as I’m currently a full-time student. School is entirely online so I'll be with your animal the majority of the day during house sits.
