Marissa was absolutely wonderful with my puppy (about 5 months old). We had her drop in to take Willow out for walks and just generally play with her and she truly was fanstastic. She kept me very well updated, sent plenty of photos and once I got home Willow was always in good spirits. Highly recommend she was incredibly easy to work with as well.

Marissa was amazing with our puppy. She arrived timely and followed our care instructions. She was very attentive and sent us updates throughour her stay! Our boy loves Marissa and can't wait to hang out with her again!

Hi! I consider my fur babies my human children as well. Marissa has always taken excellent care of her own dogs as well as many others. Either dog sitting jobs and dog walking. I can’t recommend her enough as she showers every dog with pure love and attention. She respectfully understands directions from pet owners and adheres very strictly to them. Because of that people can go away or go to work with zero worry. She also can successfully administer anlmost any medication even to the pickiest of dogs. She’s always reliable, and you can count on her.

I have a spacious yard and a friendly 3-year-old pup who loves making new friends. Your pet will enjoy a cozy crate and a secure, shaded deck for relaxing.

Information Marissa D. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if your pet has any dietary restrictions, any medications they need, and their general temperament. I also like to hear about their daily routines, exercise habits, or activities, and any behavioral quirks or triggers. Finally, please share any emergency contacts or specific instructions that would help me take the best care of your furry friend.

A typical day

A typical day with me is all about making sure your pet is happy and comfortable. We’ll start with a fun walk or playtime to get some energy out. During the day, we can play games like fetch or tug-of-war. I’ll make sure they stay on their regular schedule with meals, potty breaks, and downtime. I also like to include puzzle toys or simple training games to keep them entertained and engaged.
