Since I work as a kennel technician, being with and caring for animals is practically second nature to me. Being able to pet sit would be right up my alley and perfect for the experience I have.

I need to know of any medications that need to be administered under my care as well as any specific behavior issues such as nipping, aggressiveness, leash pulling, etc.

A typical day

While sitting, I’ll keep your pet happy and engaged with fun activities like playtime using their favorite toys, daily walks or supervised outdoor time, and gentle training or enrichment games. We’ll also enjoy calm moments together, such as cuddling, brushing, or simply relaxing, so your pet feels safe, entertained, and cared for while you’re away.

Caring Pet Sitter You Trust

Pet care experience

I’ve grown up around animals my entire life. Now that I’m older I’ve had plenty experience caring for them whether that be pet sitting for friends and family or in my line of work. Something that will set me apart from other sitters you may come across is my experience working at a kennel. This includes specifically working with service dogs, boarding pets, and k9 working. I’ve worked with a variety of dog breeds, ages and behaviors, meaning I can cater to whatever your pets needs :)

Marissa took good care of our elderly cat and dog. She followed complicated instructions and administered oral medication to our diabetic cat. She communicated well and sent pictures. They obviously felt comfortable with Marissa. Our dog was ready to follow her to her car, ready for another adventure.

Very fortunate to have located Marissa. Reliable and dependable. Our adopted dog has anxiety and Marissa did a great job with Luke. Marissa stayed with Luke while we attended a festival. Will definitely use her services in the future.

Marissa was wonderful taking care of my 2 dogs while I was away for 6 days! She was punctual and professional and showed my dogs a lot of love and attention. I appreciate her care for my dogs and the respect for my home. I would recommend Marissa to anyone who is looking for quality care for their pets! Thank you Marissa!
