Highlights
Pet care experience
Animal welfare advocate
Animals have been a part of my life since childhood—I grew up with cats, dogs, and kittens, and that love for animals has only grown. I'm currently a foster for a local cat rescue, and friends and family often trust me to care for their pets, whether it’s dog walking or cat sitting. I bring patience, compassion, and experience to every visit, and I treat every pet like my own.

Marisa also cares for cats. Learn about their cat-specific care experience.
Qualifications
Safety, trust & environment
When caring for your pet, I treat them as if they were my own—with patience, love, and attention to their unique personality and needs. Whether it's a walk, playtime, or just some quiet companionship, I focus on making each visit safe, comfortable, and enjoyable. I understand how much trust it takes to leave your pet in someone else's care, and I take that responsibility seriously.
Ratings and reviews
Marissa did a great job with our two cats over the past weekend! We would love to have her back next time
Marisa provided great care for our dog Nina, a 70 lb German Shepherd. We had her come over to spend sometime with our dog, a short walk around our community and feed her. We're glad we found a great dog sitter and will use her again in the future!
Marisa did an excellent job. Great communication. Lots of photo's. I will defiantly use her next time I travel.
I have known Marisa for many years now and I can say with true confidence that she is a pure and genuine individual. She loves animals and takes excellent care of them. She’s been doing foster care for cats for a few years now. She is confident in her ability to care for animals. Whether it is medication, special feedings, or socializing, she has helped to prepare animals for their forever home.
Marisa is a kind and trustworthy person. She is great with animals. She has cared for my animals on several occasions including an overnight stay so my pets wouldn’t be lonely. It’s so nice to know your pets are being cared for by someone you can trust. I would be happy to have Marisa take care of my animals the next time I go on a trip.
