Pet care experience

Dog mom and animal lover!

I own a male golden retriever, 7 years old. My phone is absolutely filled with pictures of all my animal friends, so you can rest assured I'll send plenty of photos of your loved one to you! I also have a 4 year old daughter, who loves dogs as well :) I am a retail worker and available different days and hours each week but either myself, or my husband is almost always home. We have a great fenced in yard! Plenty of room for playing and plenty of shade for relaxing. If your dog is a good walker, we love going for walks around our neighborhood.

Marissa and her husband Will were great with Wrigley! Super communicative and they treated him just like he was their own.

Drop-In Visits • Dec 11, 2019

Marissa was nice enough to accommodate my drop in request very late notice. She was wonderful with my golden retriever and will 100% use her again.

Dog Walking • Aug 27, 2019

If you’re looking for a kind and responsible individual to take care of your babies as if they were her own, look no further! I knew right away Marissa was a great fit. She responded to my request immediately and happily came out to meet the doggies prior to walking them for the first time. After our summer dog walker returned to college we were very worried about finding someone to walk the pups. After meeting Marissa and seeing her interactions with the dogs our minds were at ease. So happy to have met Marisa and will definitely be rebooking!!
