Highlights
Pet care experience
Physician that loves animals!
I’ve grown up with animals my whole life and would love to care for your fur baby while you’re away. Every year for the past 6 years I've watched a family's 5 dogs while they take 3-4 week trips. This included giving one of the older dogs up to 25 eye drops a day and taking him to the vet for his eye ulcer check up. I have multiple families that I dog sit for on a monthly basis.

Safety, trust & environment
I am comfortable providing medical needs to your fur baby. I love playing fetch or any sort of game. I will definitely cuddle your loved one if they want!
Ratings and reviews
Marissa is a terrific cat + house sitter in every conceivable way. This was my first time calling on her and I was impressed from our very first encounters, messaging back and forth online. Next it was the meet and greet that assured me she would be a superb sitter. She’s extremely likable, easy to connect with, and I appreciated that she wasn’t rushed. It was also clear she loves and understands cats! It was clear she was someone I could trust with the care of my cats and house, and she was. Once she began her stint, I received updates and photos, enough to be reassured that all was well. Communication from sitters is important to me, and I like when they’re proactive, not leaving me wondering. When confronted with an unexpected and troubling situation, something that had never happened with my cats before, Marise handled the events gracefully, rolling with things as well as anyone could. All to say that I truly cannot recommend Marisa highly enough!
Marissa was great! Helped me out last minute and I can tell from the pics she sent my dog was happy on his walk! Will definitely use her again!

Thank you Marissa !

The best sitter I've ever had. So considerate, accommodating, and caring. Cannot recommend enough.

Marissa was great with our dogs and provided photos the couch potatoes (I mean dogs). Took great care of the house while we gone for an extended period. Much better option than kennel and would highly recommend her for any pet sitting needs.
Marissa has been so attentive and absolutely wonderful to work with. She sends us the cutest pics and we love knowing our pups are being well cared for. We’ll definitely book with her again!

Schedule
I am a resident physician at UMN! And I am homesick for my family pets so I love watching dogs & cats when I can. That being said, since I am choosing to pet sit in my limited free time, please respect my time and prices. I am a runner so I would be happy to incorporate a dog into my weekly runs.
