Highlights
Pet care experience
Caring and Reliable UT Student
I’ve been around all kinds of animals my entire life, but growing up always had at least 5 dogs and cats in the house! Ive house sat for families with multiple animals, animals with special behavioral and health needs, and puppies and kittens. I love doing all the silly little things for other peoples fur babies because I am the same way with my mine! I’m also been a foster care provider for Austin Animal Services and have absolutely loved getting to spoil the shelter dogs and help get them adopted into fantastic homes. Through this experience I’ve learned a lot about dog behavior and how to make even the shyest dogs comfortable and happy. I’m a senior at UT and all my classes fall on the same two days.

Marissa also cares for cats. Learn about their cat-specific care experience.
Qualifications
Safety, trust & environment
I am an early riser so for dog walking, I try to do client walks early in the morning, or later in the evening in the summer when it is so hot. If daytime visits work better for you and your dog I’m happy to play with them inside and just take them out for short potty breaks when the heat is bad. For dog/cat sitting I am open to staying overnight and providing house sitting services if needed! Please book housesitting or drop in visits if you will be away and are looking for someone to take care of your pets. Dog walking bookings do not typically include feeding, cleaning, or otherwise being the sole caretaker of your pet or home.
Ratings and reviews
Marissa took great care of our kitty cats, they all seemed to really like her, even the shy one warmed up to her quickly. She kept us updated with daily pictures and took great care of our home.
Marissa was a great communicator and completely reliable!
Marissa was very caring for our pup. We will definitely use again.
She is awesome! Super great with our cat
I can’t recommend Marissa enough! She took incredible care of my two cats and my home while I was away. She sent thoughtful updates and adorable photos every day, which gave me so much peace of mind knowing my girls were happy, loved, and well cared for. When I got home, my house was spotless and exactly as I had left it. It’s clear she is dependable, respectful, and truly cares about both the pets and the homes she’s entrusted with!
Great with our dog, reliable and good communication!
