Absolutely amazing experience! She was right on time, took such great care of my dog, and even sent the cutest pictures during the walk. I was busy and couldn’t check my phone, but she took the initiative to call to make sure everything was okay, which I really appreciated. You can tell she truly cares. Highly recommend!

I can’t say enough good things about Marisa and the care she gave to Bailey. She stayed with him for four nights at our home, and from the very beginning I felt completely at ease knowing he was in such loving and capable hands. Marisa didn’t just “watch” Bailey she truly cared for him. She spent quality time with him, took him on regular walks, made sure he was fed on time, and gave him so many cuddles and affection. Bailey can be sensitive and emotionally intuitive, and Marisa was incredibly patient, attentive, and gentle with him. He absolutely adored her. What meant the most to me was her communication. She consistently sent me updates, photos, and check-ins, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. It was clear Bailey was comfortable, happy, and well cared for the entire time. Marisa is trustworthy, responsible, kind-hearted, and genuinely loves animals. I wouldn’t hesitate for a second to have her care for Bailey again, and I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, loving, and attentive pet sitter. Bailey was safe, loved, and happy and that’s everything you could ask for. 💛

Marisa has fed my cats while I was on vacation several times. My cats love her! She would send me picture updates and asked questions if certain behaviors were normal. That type communication is essential when you leave your pets.
