Information Marisa I. would like to know about your pet

I would like to know anything about the dog - likes, dislikes, anything that might set the dog off, what treats he or she likes, if they can have treats.

I would like to take dogs on a walk by my apartment or go exploring around town. I would also be willing to send the owner plenty of text and picture updates!

Pet care experience

I am a school psychologist in Palisades Park. I have owned dogs my entire life. I love a dog's need for attention and their energy and unconditional love! During the summer, I can be available most days and most times during the day. I am available most evenings. I'm an early bird! I am looking forward to becoming friends with your dog while getting our exercise. I am also looking forward to your pet getting the attention he or she needs. I'm friendly, honest, loyal, and looking forward to a new adventure. I have a dog, Stephen. He is 3 years old and lives at home with me and my husband. Reach out to see if we’re a good match!

Marissa has been absolutely amazing with my dog. She’s reliable, communicative, and clearly loves animals. I always feel at ease knowing my pup is in such caring hands, and it’s obvious my dog is excited to see her every time. Marissa goes above and beyond with updates, photos, and making sure my dog gets plenty of attention and exercise. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate walker!

Marisa is such a loving young woman to both people and animals alike. As long as I’ve known her, she’s had pets - dogs, fish, birds - and they live full and happy lives. She works with children daily, and proves to be a responsible caretaker with a heart of gold. 10/10 would recommend.
