Pet care experience

I work from home with a flexible schedule and have the ability to give your pet the time, energy and love that they need while you’re away! I have extensive experience with pets - both cat and dog. Happy to stop by for walks or runs, individual play time (like fetch), and even snuggling! I can handle 1+ dogs of any size. Puppies are also welcomed! I have the ability to visit the dog or work with you for partial day visits to make sure your pup is being trained efficiently with their potty breaks and/or crate training. I am very understanding when follow the house and family rules when playing with your pets. Also, depending on the timing, I am happy to help with feeding for nights and mornings. I am happy to meet with you and your pup today! CURRENTLY looking at flexible schedules with my current work needs.

I could not be happier with the service I received from Marissa. My Step-Father had a medical emergency and we needed to a reliable cat sitter right away to come to the house twice a day to feed and care for his elderly cat. Marissa was extremely responsive and dependable. I received updates every time she came to the house and could tell from the pictures that the cat was being extremely well cared for. I am so incredibly thankful for that peace of mind while we dealt with this unexpected medical emergency. I will not hesitate to hire Marissa again for any future pet sitting needs we might have.
