Dependable, experienced, smiles!

Pet care experience

I always grew up around animals. I had a deep connection with them ever since I can remember. I went to Virginia Tech to major in animal and poultry science and then continued onto Animal welfare. I have experience with all kinds of animals, behaviors, and medical needs!

Marissa is the absolute best. She has taken care of our animals many times and has the skills needed to manage our dog with medical needs while still loving on our cats. I never worried about my animals when Marissa was taken care of them since I knew she would treat them like her own. And her background in veterinary medicine is a bonus!

Marissa is reliable and fantastic with animals! She works at CASPCA and does a fantastic job with all of the animals. She also has veterinary background and would make for a fantastic sitter/walker/whatever you need.

"I can't say enough wonderful things about Marissa and her exceptional ability to care for animals. Marissa's love and passion for animals shine through in everything she does. She's not just a caregiver; she's a ray of sunshine for your furry friend. Her bubbly personality, dedication, and attention to detail will ensure that your pet receives the absolute best care possible. I wholeheartedly recommend Marissa to anyone looking for someone to trust with their beloved pet."
