Your pets new favorite friend.

Pet care experience

I grew up with pets my entire life from dogs and cats to turtles, lizards, fish and even wildlife animals like birds, squirrels and opossums! I've worked and volunteered for many animal rescues, like dog and wildlife rescues, as well as at farms and ranches, working specifically with horses and have fostered over 300 dogs in my life! I currently have a bearded dragon and my own dog who I rescued that has behavioral and medical issues/needs that I have been working with for the last 5 years, he is my best friend. I hope I get the opportunity to love and care for your pets like I do my own!

Marissa helped us with our brand new kitten. Her response was quick and very reliable. She went above and beyond of what was asked and sent us pictures of how our little guy was doing. She made our first weekend trip (since our adoption) so much easier. Will definitely ask her to take care of our kitten in the future. Thank you, Marissa!

As a pet owner and someone that uses Rover for their own pets, I understand the different needs of different owners and hope that I can fulfill those for you and give your pet the best. I will uphold any behavior or training that you follow in your home and treat them as a loved one. I know how important it is to feel like your pet is safe and well taken care of so I will send pictures, videos and updates as often as you would like!

Information Marissa R. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if there is anything specific that your pet needs or that you feel are important for me to know. If they have any specific behaviors or dislikes that I need to be aware of and what they enjoy and love doing. If there are special restrictions or medical needs.

A typical day

I love to play with pets and engage in physical activity! Whether that be hiking, going on walks or runs or playing ball! I also have some stimulating mental puzzle games for dogs and can work on some basic training commands with them if you need or are interested! I am also completely content spending time cuddling and loving on your pet at home as well.
