About Marissa N.
Communication
Dog skills
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!
Information Marissa N. would like to know about your pet
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!
A typical day
My days are tailored to each pet. Energetic dogs get long walks, playtime, and mental enrichment, while senior or shy pups enjoy slow strolls and cozy company. Cats can expect plenty of wand-toy action, treat puzzles, or gentle affection at their pace. I follow your routine to make your pet feel safe, happy, and understood.

Pet care experience
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!
Reviews
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!!
My cats were well taken care of while I was gone! Everything we requested for our cats care was done and visits were on time and complete with updates and photos. Would highly recommend Marissa!
Very reliable and great communication! Felt very safe with Marissa watching my blind dog. Sent pictures daily and house was just as we left it when we went on vacation. Very dependable! A+++
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!
