They'll be in good hands!!!

I. Love. Dogs. Most of my life I've had at least one pet. I currently have three precious dogs whom have become a part of my family. They get along very well with other dogs and love to play! My two daughters, my son, my partner and I would love the opportunity to share our love of animals with your dogs. My house has all wood and tile, so you can leave them without worry of them making a mess. Further, working from home allows us to keep a constant eye on everything throughout the day. We're never gone for more than 4 hours at a time. We are very active and would provide lots of fresh air and exercise for your fur baby. Because we treat our pets like family, they are guaranteed lots of playing and snuggles. Having fur babies of my own, caring for dogs is already part of my daily routine. The benefit of working from home is the flexibility to adjust to your dog's schedule. We have a completely fenced-in yard, so your dog(s) can run around as often as they'd like! We also have a "doggy door" which allows them immediate access to the backyard.

Marissa and her family are amazing. They take care of our babies as if they are some of their own. Definitely a huge peace of mind when out of town. Can’t possibly say enough good things about her and the family. Thanks again

Ralph was very happy with Marisa and her family. I could tell he was very loved and happy when I picked him up. Marisa was also flexible and easy to work with when my flight got delayed and I had to push back my pick up time, which I appreciated very much!
