Caring Like You Would Yourself

Pet care experience

Hi there! I’m a proud pet parent to a full house of furry friends — Dozer, my 10-year-old pit bull, Eleanor, our playful 3-year-old, three lovable cats, and JB, our sweet senior dog. With a crew like that, you can bet I know how to care for pets of all ages, personalities, and needs! I’ve been a Veterinary Technician for 3 years and have worked in the field for over 7 years. Animals have always been my passion, and I love being able to combine my professional experience with genuine compassion. Over the years, I’ve also cared for pets while house-sitting for friends and family, whether they were away on vacation or working long days. I understand that every animal is unique — some need slow, gentle walks while others are happiest with a good jog — and I’m happy to tailor care to their individual needs. Most importantly, I’ll treat your fur babies like my own, with love, respect, and plenty of attention. I can’t wait to meet you and your pets!

Marissa was totally great. She came over and met my dog within the hour that I called and requested her services. She contacted me while I was gone to let me know all of my animals were doing well. She is super qualified and extemely good with animals. I will definitely be requesting her services again in the future.

Marissa was always willing to dog sit for me and my husband when we go on vacation, she is even willing when it is last minute. she is so loving and even my unfriendly cat loves her.
