Pet care experience

I’ll treat your dog like my Maggie

I’ve had experience with all types of dogs from shelters volunteering with Doggy Day Out in Virginia and New Jersey. I’ve cared for Tripods, Reactive dogs, small hyper puppies, and big bulls in a China shop. I’ve had a dog since I was 12 and recently got a new puppy Maggie so had to go through all the potty training and rule following again very recently.

Safety, trust & environment

I will follow what you tell me to do. I love dogs and will play with them, run, walk, pet, and feed. I’ll make sure they get what they need and follow your specific rules, every dog is different and the owner knows their dog best.

Reliable and communicates very well, making us feel at ease when away from our two dogs! Highly recommend.

Marisa is a true pet lover where she give attention and affection this each animal is her own. Not only have I have personally trusted her with my own fur baby but recommended her to family members and friends whose pets can’t wait for her to come back and visit. Teaming up with Marisa is ensuring your 4 legged family member will be spoiled rotten and sleepy from just the right amount of play time.

Marisa takes excellent care of our dog Skippy! She is always on time, and follows the instructions that we leave exactly. Skippy is huge (100lbs) and energetic, but Marisa is confident and athletic enough to handle him on his walks. She always spends time playing with Skippy, makes sure he has access to plenty of water, and makes sure he has time to go potty when she gets there and before she leaves. To top it all off, Marisa always sends the cutest pictures of her and Skippy having fun! It puts my mind at ease to know someone as thoughtful and competent as her, is in charge of my puppy when I can’t be home with him myself.

Let me know if your dog has any medications or physical limitations. My old dog was 13 and needed to go slower / had medical issues that hindered her. Also let me know if your dog is reactive as I can accommodate for that as well on walks
