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 amazing! My cat loves her and she took care of all her food, litter, water, toys etc for a very long trip I took. I would absolutely recommend her and be using her again.

Please let me know if your pet has any special needs or accommodations. This can include medications, mobility concerns, anxiety triggers, reactivity, feeding routines, or anything that helps them feel safe and comfortable. The more I know ahead of time, the better I can make their experience!
