Pet care experience

Human seeking wagging tails to love

I've taken care of all types of dogs since I was 13 years old. My household has always included two dogs. From childhood I have fed, trained, walked, groomed and loved every animal I've been lucky enough to have. From the beginning puppy stages through the extra care they've needed as seniors.

Safety, trust & environment

I understand how important animals are to a family. With that in mind I will care for them as if they were my own. Staying on top of their needs and following all directions.

Marissa was WONDERFUL with my boys and took such great care of them. She went above and beyond and did everything I asked and more. The boys loved her and I will absolutely be reaching out to her again!

Marissa is one of the most caring and responsible people I know—especially when it comes to animals. They’ve looked after my dogs on several occasions, and every time I’ve come back to a happy, well-cared-for pup who didn’t want the visit to end! Marissa is attentive, patient, and goes the extra mile to make sure pets feel comfortable and loved. Whether it's taking them on long walks, sticking to their feeding routine, or just giving them lots of affection, you can trust that your dog will be in great hands. If you’re looking for someone who treats your dog like their own, look no further. I wouldn’t hesitate for a second to recommend Marissa as a dog sitter!

I'm currently looking to make this my main priority for the summer. This means I will be available to provide all the love and attention your fur babies require.

Let me know if your pet has any particular needs or behaviors to watch out for. I'm very observant and have spent my entire life around animals. I know each animal has their own personality and I hope to add many new fur babies to my life.
