Pets make me a better person

Pet care experience

I am a Full Time Certified Pet Stylist. I have been grooming for 5 years and I have experience in housesitting as well. I have 4 furry friends of my own at home! I am looking to expand my doggy clientele. I appreciate building relationships with pet parents and their animals. A dog’s lifestyle and temperament are two key things in understanding how to communicate with them. It is my job to know these things. I always look for what is in the pet’s best interest. I have a dog that lives to protect me(in her eyes). Unfortunately, this can be an issue, so I refrain from bringing her around other people’s pets. Safety is always my first priority, whether I’m just bringing them for their walk or I’m taking care of them at work. It is essential for their groomer to also be their friends; a happy pet at home makes a happy pet on the grooming table. I am excited to give the best home care that I can and hope to take care of their grooming needs in the salon. ***If a client is uneasy of having someone stay over night in their home, no problem! We can arrange something where I will just come in a few times a day to make sure their pets get what they need. And I know The Drop-In visits are listed for only 30 minutes at a time, but I prefer to stay at least an hour to build bonds. Thanks! Hope to hear from you soon.

Marisa has experience with all types and sizes of dogs and cats. She has taken care of my 3 mixes on multiple occasions, who are almost too much for me to handle! She has a warm personality and is very easy to communicate with. Marisa is attentive and very detail oriented as well. I highly reccomend her for any pet needs.

Marisa and I have worked together for 4 years and she has always been a hard worker. She has a deep love for animals and has always shown a caring nature towards them. I would trust her with any of my pets and know they’re in great hands! She would make an excellent addition to your team as she is extremely driven and responsible! Thank you for your time Laura W.
