Former Vet Tech: Safe & Loving Care

Hello! I was previously employed as a veterinary technician and am well versed in administering medications, injections, understanding animal body language, etc. Im used to seeing many different furry faces everyday, and lots of different personalities! I am trained to recognize illness signs in dogs and cats, especially in the case of an emergency. I was raised always having animals from horses and ducks, to dogs and cats. I currently have my own kitty who means the world to me. I love animals and hope to stay in an animal career field.

I am more than happy to stay in your home, as I have three crazy dogs in my house as well as my cat! So staying at your residence or dropping in to check on your pets works best for me.

Marisa was extremely responsive! She came over and met our kitties twice and did everything I expected: timely feedings, litter cleaning, watering plants and checking in. She's an excellent pet sitter and I'd recommend her to anybody.

Marisa house sat taking care of my crazy pack of dogs. I have four and they all have varying needs as well as energy levels. My 16.5 year old pomeranian is considered "hospice" and requires a lot of extra care, medications and diapers. My other three include two "teenage" age chocolate labs! Marisa was WONDERFUL with all of them. With my pom its so stressful to travel not knowing if he will get all his medications, will he eat, Marisa took so much of that stress off of me. She knew how to deal with his medications as well as how important it was that he get them. I honestly cannot say enough good things about our experience with Maris she was amazing and we plan to book her again!
