Pet care experience

Flexible, outdoorsy pet lover!

I've had my own dogs since I was a little kid, and I've been pet-sitting and farm-sitting since I was a teenager. I've always gravitated towards dogs and cats and have spent a ton of time with both. I am a stay-at-home mom so I have the flexibility to visit the pet owner's home for feedings, walking, letting out, etc. I can also care for the dogs at my home during the day or overnight. Since I am home full-time, the dog would have a lot of attention and could be let outside and exercise whenever necessary. I have a home with a yard (not fenced in, but woods create a bit of a natural boundary). I have one older chocolate lab who loves to play with other dogs, a cat who doesn't mind dogs (and who I can separate into another room if there is an issue), and a toddler who loves animals. I am attentive do my pets' needs and will be to your pet's needs as well. They will get to play outside and walk often and I can bring them for hikes if they need a little more exercise.

Marissa did a fantastic job with Winnie! She was extremely friendly and accommodating to Winnie’s needs, and Winnie came home tired and happy-both good things.

Marissa was a great sitter for our dog, Zoe! She made sure to keep us updated and took great care of our girl while we were away for a week! Highly recommend her for your doggie needs.

Marissa took care of our lab Bella while we were away for the weekend. She took great care of her and sent photos daily. Bella came home tired and happy. I will definitely use her again.

Safety, trust & environment

My pets get a lot of my attention and I am very aware of their needs. I would give your pets the same care. I’m active and love being outdoors and will incorporate your pet into that part of my life if it works out with their needs!

Pets

A typical day

I spend most of the day outdoors with my toddler so your dog would join us for outdoor play! We love throwing the frisbee or ball. We also enjoy walking and hiking and would love for your dog to experience these with us! If I was watching a cat in your home, I’d make sure it gets lots of petting, snuggles (if they enjoy that kind of attention!), and play.
