Pet care experience

Safe and loving care for your dog

My family dog that we got when I was in first grade who I named Maggie was a Labrador retriever. She passed away when I was a junior in high school. After that we had a cotton de Tulear named Marley. I now have another loving and friendly dog named Marlo he is also a cotton de Tulear. I have a lot of experience walking, feeding and loving on dogs of all ages and sizes My Home is also a very loving environment for your dog to rest relax and play with lots of toys to choose from and lots of cuddles provided. I don’t work, so I am home the majority of the time.

What can I say about Marissa as a pet owner? She is easily the most doting dog mom I've known. Her little dog Marlo, is her fur baby and his sweet demeanor and great behavior is a direct result of a his surroundings. Marissa has acted as a dog sitter for me on several occasions for multiple days at a time. My dogs are quite a bit bigger than hers but there has never been a problem. My dogs were loved and cared for as if they were her own. They were walked and played with and I actually worried that maybe they wouldn't want to come home, lol. Luckily they did. But as it is, you will not be disappointed if you have Marissa sit for your dogs.

Safety, trust & environment

My home is a very peaceful and loving environment right on the ocean so your dog will be walked right next to the water and I also make sure to always take dogs out every 2 to 4 hours, depending on the dogs age and needs. If I am coming to your home to take care of your dog, I will make sure to take him on a long walk play with him and make sure to feed him and have water in his bowl.
