Animal lover!

Pet care experience

Hi! My name is Marissa, I currently work at home during the day, I have a chocolate lab who is 1 year old. We have a big yard, no fence unfortunately. This gives me lots of flexibility. I am willing to drop in, overnights, walks, vet visits, etc. I have house sat for dogs, taken them to vet visits. I love all animals especially dogs. I would love to have the opportunity to get to care for a special memeber of your family when needed. I am willing to do occasional visits or overnights if you are traveling. Let’s talk more and see if we’re a fit!

Marissa is one of the nicest dog walkers I’ve encountered! She goes above and beyond dog care and is a true animal lover. Marissa was able to bond with my dog on a level where Charlie gets excited when he hears Marissa’s name :)

Marissa has far exceeded my expectations of what a dog walker/sitter could be! Rex (Dutch Shepard) is my baby so I’m super hesitant about who takes care of him! Being a traveling nurse, I needed someone reliable and willing to love him like I do when have to stay somewhere for assignments. She keeps me updated, sends pictures, and is always right on time! Rex can be a bit hyper sometimes but Marissa takes the time to help him release his energy with long walks or his favorite, fetch! Marissa gained my trust as soon as I met her, she was reassuring and Rex loved her too! 10/10 recommendation for Marissa!

Marissa is a fantastic and caring dog sitter to my two Labrador retrievers, Rory and Piper. They are highly energetic and love your attention as soon as you walk in the door and Marissa always greets them with a smile (even if the puppy piddles a little from excitement!). She is dedicated to her commitments and on time. She wouldn’t commit to the furry member of your family if she couldn’t give it her 100% and your little guy or girl would be lucky to have her look after them when you’re not there to! I would highly recommend Marissa as your next dog sitter or dog walker!
