Pet care experience

Dogs and cats have held a special place in my heart since I was little which has led to me working on my education to pursue veterinary medicine. Their wellbeing is my biggest priority! My happiness comes from seeing animals well taken care of and thriving 🐾 I have several years of volunteer hours spent with cats and 2+ years of dog and cat care at pet hotels and daycares. As I navigate my education I wanted a way to do that in a way that was right for me so I decided to take up pet sitting!!

Marissa took good care of my little Schnauzer Max. Thney readily made friends with each other. She left my home in perfect condition.

Had a great experience! Marissa was reliable, communicative, and took really good care of my cat while I was away. I felt totally at ease knowing everything was being handled. I came home to a happy, well cared for pet and everything was just as I left it. Would definitely book again and recommend to others!

Marissa was great! She kept us updated daily. She even got our very grumpy chihuahua to warm up to her. We will definitely use her again!
