Caring, experienced Dog Mom of 3
Hi! I’m a reliable, attentive dog sitter who treats every pup like part of the family. I know how nerve-wracking it can be to leave your dog with someone new, so my goal is simple: keep your dog safe, happy, exercised, and loved—while keeping you updated and worry-free. I’m experienced with dogs of all sizes, energy levels, and personalities—from couch potatoes to zoomie champions. I’m comfortable with feeding routines, medications, leash manners, and sticking closely to your dog’s usual schedule. Whether your dog needs long walks, playtime, calm companionship, or all of the above, I adjust to what they need. You can expect: • Lots of one-on-one attention • Regular photo and video updates • Respect for your home and your rules • Clear, prompt communication • A sitter who actually enjoys hanging out with your dog I understand dogs communicate in their own ways, and I’m patient with shy pups, seniors, and dogs who need a little extra care. Your dog’s comfort and safety always come first. If you’re looking for someone dependable, calm, and genuinely dog-obsessed, I’d love to help care for your pup while you’re away.

Safety, trust & environment
Keeping pets on schedule is very important to me and my pups. Following client instructions regarding feeding times, walks or time in the yard, applicable medications and/or treats, playtime, bedtime or whatever is needed for the best experience for the owner & pet!
Ratings and reviews
I only needed a sitter for one night, but I was so happy with how Tazzy was when I got home! Tazzy is an anxious pup and can be a little particular about new people and changes to his routine, so I’m always a little nervous leaving him with someone new. When I came home, though, he was completely himself—happy, relaxed, and clearly very well cared for. You could definitely tell he got plenty of attention and cuddles while I was gone. 🥰 Everything at home was just as I left it, communication was great, and most importantly, I came home to a happy Tazzy. That’s really the best review I can give a sitter! I would absolutely feel comfortable having her watch him again.
Marissa was truly AMAZING! 🥹❤️ I reached out to her last minute after someone cancelled on me, and she was the first person willing to step in and take care of my pups. She kept me updated throughout and made sure they were fed, happy, and well taken care of. I’m so grateful for her help and highly recommend her! 🐶
Puppy took a little time to come out of her shell but Marissa was very patient with her and let puppy warm up. I'll definitely be recommending Marissa to anyone who asks
Marissa is such a wonderful caring person and was so good with communication and staying on top of my dog’s eating habits and cleanliness while I was away. She saved me when I had a last minute cancellation of a live in sitter and stayed with my dog every night. My house was taken care of as well. Highly recommend Marissa!! She will be my go to from now on.
Another great visit from Marissa! She’s always flexible with timing.
Great experience! Communication was excellent, and I received updates throughout the stay. My dog was well cared for, and I felt comfortable knowing he was in good hands. I would definitely book again and highly recommend!

I am a dog Mom of 3 (small, medium, & large LOL) with a strong support system at home allowing me to assist you with your dog sitting needs. Having recently resigned from a very stressful corporate America role, I am ready for a meaningful, positive experience that gets me excited to go to work and take the best care of your fur babies having 3 spoiled pups of my own. I also have several years of experience with cat care for my neighbors who travel often.
