We love to meet your pets needs in your home and neighborhood! My son is an excellent assistant and learning to care for animals. We both love animals.

Information Marisa G. would like to know about your pet

I like to know the temperament of your dog or cat, as to best care for them. If they are comfortable around strangers, other animals, children, or have certain fears, like storms, etc. What are their favorite things? Have a beautiful day!

A typical day

I will want to get to know your dog or cat, and allow him or her to get to know me and my son. I’d like to know your routine so that I can help them feel most comfortable while you’re gone.

Pet care experience

Hi Pet Lovers! Taking care of animals is something I have found much joy and fascination with. I love how all creatures are so uniquely crafted & mesh together in this world with us. From 1999 to 2009 I worked on and off with various veterinary hospitals and clinics, and along side dog and cat rescues. Since I was young we had dogs and cats. I have raised 2 Pit Bulls and a Great Dane, until they each passed on. In 2019 we adopted two bonded cats, a mama and a baby. We affectionately named them Queen and Princess, but we mostly call them by Mama cat and Baby cat! We added a new lovely furry family member recently, Lily, a rescue dog from one of our pet sitting adventures. We added an another rescue to our happy home a French bulldog mix, Ginger. She’s just the right spice for our home. 🤣Funny how that happens 🥰. I have Veterinary Tech experience, and am comfortable administering medications or aid in caring for animals that require more attention. I am willing to provide transportation to Veterinary Visits or trainings. Please ask any questions that you may have. [Two ways to save booking with me are using my PROMO CODE: MARISG80253 When checking out there should be an entry for PROMO.] I’m currently working at the Hilton Orlando Eforea Spa. I am also a licensed massage therapist with over 15+ years experience. I am currently only available for drop in visits and dog walking. Working with both our schedules to meet your needs, is my goal. At your home we follow your routine!

Marisa and her son were absolutely amazing. They met all my expectations and needs watching over my babies while I was gone for my anniversary trip. I especially loved that she kept contact and let me know how the cats were doing with pictures included (kept me at ease, especially since I'm an anxious pet parent). I appreciate her dedication, communication, and passion for animals and especially meeting our needs. Thank you!!

Marisa took very good care of my girls. She sent pics and videos of them while I was away for the day. No issues with her sitting in my home. I recommend her. Will use again.

Marisa watched our puppy for us last minute. She did a great job and sent pictures to us each day with updates on how our puppy was doing. Thank you Marisa:-)

Marisa was kind enough to agree to watch our small dog over the Thanksgiving holiday. She was very professional and friendly. We felt comfortable with Marisa and she communicated well with us before and during Pearl’s visit. We would definitely book with her again. Thanks Marisa!
