Pet care experience

My home is your pets home!

I have lifelong experiences with both dogs and cats I grew up with both in my family household. I adopted my first pet of my own when I was in college, my cat Oakley. And just last year I adopted my first puppy, Bert. He has been a joy to train and take care of. That being said, I understand the responsibility that comes with owning and taking care of pets. I also understand that everyone wants the best care for their fur babies. I will absolutely treat your pet as if they were my own.

Marissa took such great care of our pup! We got several updates over our short trip and our dog felt right at home with Marissa’s animals!

Marissa was great! She communicated frequently with pictures and updates. She was flexible with our pup who unexpectedly needed meds for her stay! We would definitely book with Marissa and Burt again!

Marissa took great care of our pup. She took her for long walks and made sure she was comfortable.

Marissa took such great care of Aila! Aila came home tuckered out from a day full of fun activities with Marissa and her dog. I definitely will be booking with Marissa again!

Schedule

I work from home full time so I will be able to be with your pet almost 100% of the time. I have plenty of flexibility for walks/potty breaks/play time and am more than happy to cater to whatever your pets specific needs may be.

Safety, trust & environment

My home is your pets home! Pets have free roam of the house. My own dog sleeps in bed with me at night and yours can too if they prefer. I am also happy to crate your dog whenever needed if that is preferred. I do have a small, non fenced in side yard.

Pets

A typical day

I love to start my morning off with a walk, no matter what the time of year (snow is Bert and I's favorite!). Additionally, I have lots of stimulating toys/chews for inside the house. Hiking is another activity of mine and if that is something that interests your pet, I would be happy to take them along.
