Pet care experience

Hello! I have been looking after animals for seven years now and truly enjoy spending time caring for them. I find a great sense of pride in knowing I am helping people. I am flexible on hours and willing to go above and beyond so the pets feel cared for when I am with them. I take the job seriously, and I provide updates so owners feel reassured the job is getting done. Use my code for 20% off your first booking! MARISG82657

We’ve booked with Marissa a few times and she always takes great care of our two pups. One of our dogs requires medication twice daily and she makes sure he takes it even when he’s being difficult :) They truly love when she comes over because they know they’ll be getting extra attention! She has stayed in our home and always leaves it clean, brings in packages and mail and always has been a respectful house sitter. I’m glad we’ve found a trustworthy, responsible dog sitter both us and our pups are comfortable with.

Marissa provided great support for our high needs elderly dog. We have a 15.5 yr old lab. She is declining. Ha most days are still good for her. Occasionally she has a few rough days. It turned out Valentine's day was one of those days. My husband and I were hiking Mt Wilson far from cell signal except for the occasional partial message. Angel was more wobbly and unsteady than usual, she had accidents in the house, didn't want to take her meds. Marissa went above and beyond cleaning up after Angel, was deeply concerned for our girl, and working out contingency plans to make sure she got the missing meds and to account for any delay to our hike. She sent us detailed messages that we could get once we reached the peak and then again once we reached base. She makes it possible for us to support our senior gal with visits evey few hrs and we can still get out of the house now and again. Thanks Marissa for being our Angel's special Valentine all year long.

Information Marissa G. would like to know about your pet

I would like to know if they have any special needs, medical needs, funny quirks, or any issues with people and other pets. And if so what do those needs require?

A typical day

I like taking walks around neighborhoods and letting the dog see the community and people around. Also, I think playing fetch with a dog is one of my favorite activities with them, it brings them so much joy and it makes me laugh! When it comes to caring for other types of animals I follow the instructions provided.
