I have extensive experience caring for cats of all ages and personalities, from playful kittens to senior companions. I understand their unique behaviors and needs, providing attentive care that includes feeding, litter box maintenance, playtime, and plenty of affection. Whether your cat is independent or loves constant cuddles, I ensure their routine is maintained and they feel safe, comfortable, and loved in your absence.
Reviews

Marissa went above and beyond taking care of my kitty and unexpected apartment issues!


Marissa took excellent care of my cats for a week. I usually feel anxious leaving them behind, but she kept me completely at ease throughout. Highly recommend.

Marissa took great care of Winnie while we were gone! Sent tons of pics which we loved to see and could tell that Winnie was getting tons of special attention. Highly recommend!

Marissa took wonderful care of my cat, Eloise. She was communicative and professional. Thank you!
