Safety, trust & environment

I take every need your pet has very seriously. I make sure to abide by their schedules & exact home life routine/expectations so that everything is smooth & easy going for them with minimal stress on you and them! I make sure to gain their trust, as well as yours. I send lots of pics/videos & have such a huge heart for animals & their well being. Your comfort and trust is my top priority. Respecting your home, routine, and wishes are all my duty & I don’t take that lightly!

Information Marisa P. would like to know about your pet

I do ask that i’m aware of any reactive behaviors, dislikes, special medications or food, known training/commands and daily routine. It is also important to note each pets boundaries (kids/other animals/etc)

A typical day

It will really depend on each pet and owner. But for those that are comfortable with outings, i LOVE to have pets join me on outings/adventures! I love hikes, walks, yard play, swimming, etc

Pets

from kennel tech to your home ☺️

Pet care experience

I was a kennel tech for many years & have worked with numerous breeds & ages of dogs. Even the most “dangerous” dogs were licking my face & trusting me. I pride myself on building trust & a sense of safety with each animal and their humans! ❤️ I have experience caring for dogs, cats, goats, horses, mules, and chickens!

Marisa is amazing! I have two English Bulldogs who are both quirky and wonderful. She treated them very well and I came home to two very happy well loved dog babies! I will use her for all my dog sitting needs. I cannot recommend her enough!

We couldn’t have asked for a better pet sitter! We were away for nine days and Marisa took exceptional care of Farro and Quinoa, ensuring they were safe and well-loved. Communication was fantastic, she were incredibly responsive and kept us updated with clear messages, clarifications, photos, and videos, which gave us great peace of mind while we were away. Not only did they take wonderful care of our pets, but they also respected our home, leaving everything just as we had left it. We had done a cleaning session before we left and it was just how we left it! Coming back to a clean house and content pets was the best feeling. It’s clear they are responsible, caring, and truly dedicated to what they do.

Marissa has been fantastic. The girls are well cared for and have been getting lots of cuddles. She is understanding and patient, and understands the needs of high energy dogs. Communication has been perfect along with some entertaining pics. The girls love her. I wouldn’t hesitate to have her back again to watch the girls!

Marisa was amazing! She made sure our sweet Luna had a fun weekend and helped me get away stress free for the weekend. If we could give more than 5 stars we would. I highly recommend her!! What a great experience.
