Veterinary social worker dog lover
Pet care experience
I have taken care of dogs for my entire adult life and absolutely love it. I have my own dog Pia who is 8 years old and is the love of my life. I frequently care for my friend’s pets when they are away and treat them as my own. I am a veterinary social worker meaning I specialize in the relationship between humans and animals so caring for animals is truly my life’s work. I have volunteered for dog rescues and dog shelters and was also a dog walker when I lived in a bigger city
Reviews
Mackey loves his stays w Marissa!
Marisa is wonderful with Cooper. She is consistent, reliable, and comes whether it is rain or shine. Cooper is delighted to see her. Marisa communicates regularly and easily and she adjusts to my schedule changes to work with our family.
We always appreciate Marisa’s timeliness and quick response even when we need last minute help!
Marisa was super helpful and wonderful to work with! I look forward to all the walks to come!

Safety, trust & environment
I don’t have a fenced in yard but that means fur babies get extra walks for bathroom breaks and exercise. I have one dog who enjoys the company of other dogs so you can feel certain that your pup will have a friend while staying here. My home is your dog’s home and you can expect that they will be sleeping on the furniture is that’s their thing!

Please let me know if your dog has any special considerations such as food allergies, treats to avoid, or behavioral quirks. I want to make sure your dog feels at home and is safe!
A typical day
I love to give dogs a chance to be both physically and mentally stimulated. We will go on many walks and spend time outdoors! I have plenty of toys for mental fun and stimulation too

I recently moved back to Indy and work as a therapist. I have a very flexible schedule that I make weeks in advance and am rarely out of the house for more than a couple of hours. My partner works from home as well and has also been a dog walker and of course caregiver to our dog Pia. When not working I am spending time with my pup and others and prioritize walks, hikes, and any other outdoor time.
