Pet care experience

Big or small, I care for them all

There is no greater sense of fulfillment than to be able to work with animals of all shapes and sizes. It makes me happy to know that there is work for people who value being able to spend time with animals and help out people who are needing some extra help. I am flexible with everything I do. Whether your dog wants to walk around the neighborhood or your shy kitty just needs quiet company, I’m here for it. I am willing to work with your schedule and needs in order to provide the best care to you and for your pets!

Pets

Safety, trust & environment

I treat every pet as if they were my own and take the time to learn their routines, comfort items, and any routines you want followed. I’m patient and gentle when pets are warming up to someone new, and I always prioritize their safety. I monitor doors, gates, and outdoor time closely, and I keep a careful eye on body language to make sure your pet feels safe, relaxed, and understood in their own space. I provide regular updates so you always know how your pet is doing including lots of pictures!

Marissa was fantastic! She truly cares and even took the time to come meet my Roxy pup before the booking, which completely put my mind at ease. She was on time, followed all instructions perfectly, and sent photos showing my Roxy pup was happy and relaxed. I highly recommend her and will absolutely book her again!

Marissa did a fantastic job feeding and loving on my baby! She has a sweet personality and it is evident she loves animals. She follows instructions diligently and kept me updated throughout my absence. Thank you, Marissa!!

Marissa did an amazing job! Ember even warmed up to her quickly and asked for pets! The fur babies we well taken care of while I was gone, as well as she sent so many pics, I really was missing them while I was gone. She even brought in a package I wasn’t expecting until the following Tuesday!
