Compassionate caregiver

Pet care experience

Hello! I’m Marissa, a PA-C thats been a pet owner all of my life to Yorkshire Terriers and a cat. I want to apply my pet care skills and experience during this interim period as I apply for Physician Assistant jobs. I am attentive to your pets needs at all times, whether they are easier to manage or have a more complicated routine. I do well in both active and sedentary environments, and will be both patient and compassionate toward your animal. My close family relative is a veterinarian, and I have learned much from her over the years. I have experience interacting with cats, dogs, fish, and even lizards! Through this connection I have learned about varying animal dispositions, consumable dangers, teeth brushing, correct grooming & bathing techniques, and how to treat minor stomach issues, stress, and joint mobility issues. Please do not hesitate to contact me with any questions regarding your canine or feline family member! I have 1 friendly cat who gets along well with other animals. There are water bowls that are always full and a litter box for any other cats. It can also be removed for other animal visitors.

Marissa was absolutely great with my dog Canelo! She communicated very well and let me know how he was doing throughout the day. I’d definitely book her again! Thank you again , I know for a fact Canelo had the time of his life staying with you!!

Marissa was a perfect match for my anxious, sometimes difficult chihuahua. She was so patient with him - and it showed! She even cut his nails, which was long overdue, and not something he even lets me do. I really trusted Marissa with Monty and would absolutely hire her again.

Marissa is the best! She was super attentive with our pup Nala and even took her on a 6-mile hike to wear her out! She sent updates throughout the weekend and gave her lots of snuggles. We’ll definitely be booking with Marissa again :)
