Pet care experience

Pawsatively perfect fit.!

Hello there! My name is Marissa and I’ve been taking care of animals for as long as I can remember. I stopped sitting for awhile and instead was working and volunteering with animal shelters but I’m back on rover, working at a dodgy daycare and even working towards becoming a dog trainer! I can promise that your fur babies will be treated like my own while in my care. If you have any questions please reach out 💕

Pets

Safety, trust & environment

I prefer to cater to the needs of each individual animal, if they don’t really like people or other animals I tend to stay and play with them in their homes or walk them around their neighborhood so they stay within an environment that they know. I will however take them for the day and walk trails and such with them if the owner says the animal is okay with that!

House Sitting • Jun 15, 2026

Marissa cared for our 4 fur babies for a few days and did a great job communicating with us and sending videos. She was very respectful of our space left the house cleaner than when we left. We’ll be reaching out to Marissa again in the future!

House Sitting • Jun 08, 2026

This was a horrible experience. Lack of communication on the sitter. I had no idea what was going on. When she left never updated me at all. When she arrived I was never notified.

Marissa is a great dog sitter! She is very communicative and ensures that your pup feels cared for. I know Denver is in great hands with Marissa and we will invite her plenty more in the future.

Schedule

I have two classes a day, 12-1pm and 3-4pm, where I will be training a dog but outside of that I pet sit/walk full time! This means that my schedule is flexible and I’m able to work with what you need at anytime outside of my class work. Also an early riser so if you need someone to swing by your home first thing in the morning I’m your gal!

Cats
0 to 15 lbs
16 to 40 lbs
41 to 100 lbs
over 101 lbs
Marissa can host up to 5 drop-ins per day
I would just like to know if they have any medical needs, if they get along with other dogs or not, as well as what their triggers are. I have no medical or breed restrictions.
Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
