Safety, trust & environment

I have a gated front and back patio and a very safe neighborhood for walks. We are in a single-story unit so there is very minimal noise from neighbors.

Information Marissa D. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if your dog prefers to be crated or what precautions to take if they need to be left alone for any period of time. How do they do on walks? Please let me know anything I can do to make them feel more comfortable with me!

A typical day

For drop-in visits, refreshing of food, water, and any other necessities are addressed. I am also happy to perform any additional home tasks needed if you are away for an extended period of time. For walks, we will go at your pet’s pace, ensuring adequate distance is covered with plenty of potty opportunities. I will also make sure they have water and anything else needed upon return home.

Loved like they are my own!

Pet care experience

I'm a lifelong animal lover with 20+ years experience caring for them. I have experience with dogs (puppies through seniors), cats, and various small animals. Our furry babies give us unconditional love and I believe they deserve the highest level of love and care in return. I treat all pets in my care like family and will make sure they feel loved, safe, and comfortable in my care. I also understand the importance of adapting to their personality, be it energetic and playful or more shy and slow-moving. Your pet's health and happiness are my priority always.

Marissa was a great cat sitter. Our cat can be skiddish with new people but took to her immediately. Thanks!

Marissa is punctual and very easy to get along with. I do like that she was able to take to Royce very easily. Marissa is dependable, and I would certainly recommend depending on her.

Marissa was super attentive and made sure my baby felt comfortable in her home 🤍 I was nervous leaving him with someone during Fourth of July but Marissa ensured he was protected and safe. She sent me lots of photos and updates during his stay. 10/10 would recommend

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.
