Loves parks, trails, and walks!

Pet care experience

By day I'm an admin at a nonprofit, but all the time I'm a loving mom to my senior chihuahua mix named Buddy, and tabby cat Saturn. I also cared for my sister-pup Sadie, a senior Labradoodle, before she passed this year. My husband and I are both animal lovers who like taking our pets on adventures to the park and on road trips, and on occasion to the Rambler for a cold treat. I've been dogsitting off and on for ten years and am used to working with small to large dogs with a wide variety of needs, including giving medicine, managing dietary restrictions, doing small grooming tasks, and giving special attention. Breeds I have taken care of before are: Chihuahua, Border Collie, Labrador Retreiver, Standard Poodle, Pit Bull, Labradoodle, Shih Tzu, Golden Retreiver, Jack Russell, Dachsund, and Boxer. I'm active and will walk your pet as long as they need, or play fetch in the yard until they tucker out, but I'm also content to sit and give belly rubs too. Pets can't stay with me in our home because my animals don't like to share, so when I take care of your pooch they will be getting all of my attention. I look forward to helping you give your pooch live their best life, and will take care of them like they're my own.

Marissa was wonderful. Very personable and great with my two dogs. She updated me with pictures and how each visit went. Definitely recommend her.

Marisa has taken care of my dog on numerous occasions. She is responsible and follows through with her commitments and is very accommodating. She treats my dog with love and takes such good care of her. I would highly recommend her to anyone who is searching for a dog walker/caregiver.

Marisa is such a passionate and loving cat & dog caretaker! She is so friendly to all pets alike and is super knowledgeable about what makes the four-legged-friends happy. I would trust her with my difficult dog any day!

Information Marisa L. would like to know about your pet

I like to know as much about your dog as possible before sitting. How do they like strangers? Do they try to eat things while on their walks? Do they have any recent medical issues? Are they an escape artist? Where are there favorite places to walk? Anything that could help me care for your dog, I'd be interested in knowing.

A typical day

My favorite park is the Windber Rec because of the paved trail and limited traffic, but for a dog that needs more space I like to take them to the Mayer Trail or around their own neighborhood.
