I'd love to meet your furry family!

Pet care experience

My name is Marissa, I am a licensed veterinarian working in the Broward area. I have always loved every type of animal, big or small, and have spent many years pet sitting/baby sitting for others. I am an avid outdoor person, love to have dogs to accompany me on walks and runs. I have been certified in animal behavior, as well as interned in animal training and care. I have worked at several veterinary clinics, shelters and even zoos and aquarium, so I’m pretty adept at handling the craziest of animals! I am always punctual and reliable, you will never have to worry about the safety or well-being of your pet. I would love the chance to meet more furry friends and help make having a pet a little easier for you!

I was very happy to have Marissa taking care of my cat Tiffany while I was away. She was attentive to both my needs and Tiffany's as I was a nervous wreck leaving my girl for such a long period of time. She sent me pictures every day which helped me feel a little more relaxed. I will definitely use Marissa next time I go away. Thank you so much, Marissa! Sandy and Tiffany

Marissa has watched our babies twice now and she has been AMAZING! She is very reliable, loves on our babies and sends multiple pictures to us every day! Taking care of 6 cats is no easy job, but Marissa handles it with ease. We highly recommend using her! David and Heather

Marissa was a fantastic sitter for our cat Sashi! She is extremely friendly, as well aw knowledgeable, and it was readily apparent she is an animal lover. She was always on time, and gave our Sashi plenty of love and attention. We ate definitely going to use Marissa’s services again. She is amazing! Thank you so much Marissa!
