Highlights
Pet care experience
Safe. Loving. Reliable.
I have hands-on experience caring for dogs of all sizes and personalities, from large breeds like pit bulls and mastiffs to small dogs such as Shih Tzus. Growing up around different breeds has helped me learn how to read body language, recognize stress signals, and understand each animal’s unique needs. I also actively volunteer at an animal shelter, where I work with animals of all ages, temperaments, and backgrounds. This experience has given me valuable knowledge in handling shy, energetic, anxious, and senior pets, specifically dogs and cats. I’m patient, attentive, and confident in providing safe, loving care while making sure each pet feels comfortable and understood.

Safety, trust & environment
For safety reasons, I do not have a fenced-in yard, so I prefer to provide pet sitting and walking services in your home. This allows your pets to stay in a familiar environment, which helps reduce stress and anxiety while maintaining their normal routine.
Ratings and reviews
Marisa was wonderful. My girls loved her, they returned with large smiles on their faces and exhausted. Thank you Marisa for your service. 🙂
Hands down Marissa is the best dog watcher ever! Always reliable and my pooch just loves her (that says a lot!) i give Marissa 5 stars!
Loved having Marissa as my pet sitter, she was wonderful! She was trustworthy, reliable and really cared about my pets well-being. I always felt at ease knowing my animals were in safe, loving hands. Marissa always went above and beyond and made sure to keep me updated and followed any instructions perfectly. I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter!
Marissa took care of my dog multiple times and she’s never failed to do an amazing job. She was extremely intentional with her interactions with my dog, ensuring she gave plenty of attention and love. She was punctual, responsible, and dedicated. I will definitely hire Marissa to care for my dog again, and I highly recommend her to care for your loved pets as well :)

Schedule
I’m currently in my senior year of college and only have two classes on my schedule, which gives me plenty of free time and flexibility for pet care. I’m also a photographer, so you can expect lots of high-quality photo updates of your pets while you’re away. I’m based in the Saint Leo area during the school term, but I do go home to Brevard County every so often. Because of this, I ask for at least 2–3 weeks’ notice to make sure I’ll be in the area for your booking. I don’t have a fixed schedule, so clear communication is key and helps me provide the best care possible.
