Pet care experience

My name is Marissa and I have had over 25 years of dog caring experience. Growing up, my family has always had dogs from German Shepherds, to Beagles, to Dachshunds. Now as an adult, I have an 8 year old Puggle, named Zoey who mainly spends her days snoozing on the sofa in the sun. Aside from a couple hours per day when I'll be in class, I have full availability to care for your dog! Although I live in a house with plenty of space, I'm also close to parks and am just a short drive away from the beach where I'd love to take your dog for a run or a walk. I love to stay active and will ensure your dog receives the exercise and love they need! Let me know if you have any questions, I'm available to message 24/7! :)

Marrissa came through for Us. Gosh! I was in A bind and she rescued us. What a relief! She is very friendly and we recommend her.

Information Marissa M. would like to know about your pet

Before booking there are a couple things I'd like to know about your pet to ensure a seamless stay! -How many updates you'd like to receive while your pooch is in my care? I am happy to do as many as you'd like, or just one or two per day. If you do not specify, I will send two updates, one in the late morning and one at night. -Is your pet allowed on furniture? Does she/he sleep on their own bed at night or do they prefer to snuggle with people? -Are they spayed/neutered? I may be taking care of multiple pets at once so for the safety of all, I only accept fixed dogs. -Does your dog get along well with others? I have an 8 year old puggle (half pug/half beagle) who is a great playmate if you're also looking to have your dog enjoy some social interaction. On occasion, I will watch multiple pets at once so please let me know if your dog gets anxious, aggressive, etc so I can ensure their safety! I have no problem slowly easing your pet into the presence of others, if needed. PLEASE NOTE, I will charge on a 24 hour basis. Example: if you drop off on a Monday at 9am and pick up on Tuesday at 11am, I will adjust the booking price to reflect the extra two hours.

A typical day

Hikes (Inspiration Point is my go-to), walks around the park, trips to the beach, and lots of play time in my fenced in backyard!
