Highlights
Pet care experience
Caring and responsible pet sitter
Hi there! I’m Marissa—a lifelong animal lover with extensive experience caring for dogs of all breeds and personalities. I’ve grown up with both dogs and cats and have spent years looking after pets for friends, family, and clients. From structured walks and mealtime routines to play sessions and plenty of snuggles, I know how to make pets feel comfortable, safe, and loved. I’m reliable, responsive, and confident in handling a wide range of canine needs. Whether you’re looking for a quick drop-in visit or dependable overnight care, you can count on me to treat your pet like my own. And of course, you’ll get plenty of photo updates so you always know how your furry friend is doing while you’re away.

Qualifications
Ratings and reviews
Marissa was wonderful with my border collie, Cally. Cally had never stayed overnight at someone's house without me, but by the time I came to pick Cally up, she just wanted to stay and play some more. Thank you, Marissa!

Our dog loved his stay with Marissa! He didn’t want to leave. 🐶

Marissa is our favorite dog sitter! If we have a day trip, so does our pup! We wouldn’t book a vacation without her

She was super accommodating!

Marissa and her husband were just great!! She sent plenty of photos and took our Gracie on several nice walks. I could tell she had a great time with them.

Marissa is always so thoughtful and caring to our pup! When we go out of town, he gets a vacation with her too! He’s always happy and well taken care of when he comes home. We’re so grateful for her care!!

Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I have a large open yard with plenty of space to run and play! There is a lake below our property which is perfect if they enjoy a dip. I also have a large living area with cozy rugs to relax on. Be assured any animal in my home will be well looked after and loved like my own.
A typical day
I love working to stimulate your dog both physically and mentally. We will play games outside in the yard, wade in the lake if they like and take in the many smells around them.
