Hi! I’m Marissa, a Star Sitter in Bentonville with years of hands-on experience caring for dogs, cats, and birds. As a pet owner myself, I know how important it is to find someone you trust while you’re away. Whether your pet loves playtime and walks or prefers a quiet companion and extra cuddles, I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re gone!

Ratings and reviews
Marissa does a great job looking after our kittem Bug, he looked super relaxed and comfortable in all the photos she sent. I will use her whenever we need someone to look after our pets

Don't hesitate to book Marissa! She is just amazing. Thanks Marissa for caring for my beloved dogs.


I felt so safe and secure on my trip knowing Marissa was back home taking care of my 2 cats. They absolutely loved her! Marissa is a good communicator, patient, responsible, trustworthy, does everything you need, and sends great Rover cards. I can’t wait to book with her again. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️


Marissa was such a great help! She took good care of my baby for the day.

Marissa did an excellent job caring for our dogs during her drop-in visits. She made sure they were fed, spent quality time playing with them, and went above and beyond to help keep things in order while we were away. It gave us peace of mind knowing our pets were in such caring and responsible hands and I loved getting daily pics!! We are very happy with her service and will definitely be booking with her again. Highly recommend!



Marissa was so great with my GSD! Kept me informed the whole time I was out of town and I loved getting pictures of him! Thanks sm girl!

Schedule
I’m currently a stay-at-home cat/dog mom, so I have open availability most weekdays and can be flexible with scheduling. I’m able to provide consistent care, attention, and check-ins throughout the day to make sure your pet feels comfortable and cared for.

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I always make sure pets feel safe, calm, and comfortable in their environment. I follow all care instructions closely, including feeding schedules, litter box cleaning, and any special needs. I’m very patient and gentle, especially with shy or anxious cats, and I make sure they get attention while also respecting their space. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priority.
Pets
A typical day
I like to match each pet’s energy and personality. For dogs, that can mean walks, playtime, and letting them explore and get their energy out, along with plenty of attention and affection. For cats, I focus on gentle play, enrichment, and keeping them comfortable in their routine. I always make sure pets feel safe, relaxed, and cared for while you’re away.
