Animals are people too!
Pet care experience
Hi there! My name is Marissa and I've had animals my whole life. I will cuddle and love your pets just like they're my own! I do have experience with administering medications, insulin shots, and working with special needs pups. I take pride in my work, especially when it comes to animals. I've been taking care of animals for quite a long time now, I used to work at PetSmart at the PetsHotel so I have experience in a professional setting with taking care of dogs, dog walking, dog boarding etc. I also used to foster animals when I lived in San Diego. I have a kitty and my roommate has a small dog. I'm hoping to someday have a business having to do with animals, they truly are the most wonderful things on this Earth! Please let me know if I can be of help with taking care of your puppies and kitties! It would be my pleasure!
Reviews
Marissa is fantastic. We were headed out of town for 8 days, and our scheduled dog sitter fell through. We turned to Rover and were fortunate to have found Marissa. Marissa boarded our dog in her home while we were out of town. While on vacation, we received frequent updates from Marissa with pictures of our happy pup. Upon our return, our dog was happy, healthy, and enjoyed his stay with Marissa. We highly recommend Marissa for your pet care needs.
Teddy and Lucy love Marissa!!! She’s reliable, responsive and very trustworthy. We look forward to having her watch our babies again!
Marissa took good care of my cat while I was out of town for 10 days. She was prompt and communicative; she sent updates and pics every day to let me know how my baby was doing.
I personally know Marissa from working at a Pet Hotel with her. She has professional experience working with dogs and cats, including but not limited to feeding, grooming, walking, and playing. While working there we were taught the basics, but Marissa always went above and beyond to not just make sure the dog had the basics, but was actually loved. It takes more than food and water to care for a pet. She would get to know the personalities of every dog, which means she knew what was best for each one as far as making each one as comfortable as possible. Patience is a necessary skill when with working with animals and she always was patient with them, no matter how crazy work demands were. Her priority was always the dogs well being first. She has a gentle and soft nature that invites dogs to feel safe. Not only have I witnessed her interacting with the dogs firsthand at work, but personally trust her with my own and have asked her on several occasions to watch my dog. As a chihuahua, he is very shy and wary of strangers, but loves to cuddle up to her. If you hire Marissa, rest assured your pets will be well taken care of, loved, and put first.
