Safety, trust & environment

We sincerely love the opportunities through Rover. We know that every friend has different likes and dislikes so we will always ask what your typical day looks like with them, and what their favorite things to do are. Ultimately, our goal in caring for your pet is to make them feel just as loved, happy, and comfortable as they are when you are around. We invite and recommend owners to book a day-care stay with us. This allows you to get an idea of what to expect during a longer stay (frequency of photos, day time routine, pets comfort level, etc.) and gives us the chance to make sure your pup is a good fit. We look forward to serving you and your pet!

Information Marissa S. would like to know about your pet

I would love to know the personality of your pup. Do they love to go on long walks, are they speedy or laid back? Do they enjoy runs? How about other dogs, will they enjoy playing with others, making new friends, are they shy, or perhaps not interested in engaging with other pups? Are they snuggly or very independent? What's their favorite toy, or game to play? Fetch, tug-o-war, keep away?

A typical day

My favorite thing to do with furry friends is whatever makes them happy! Whether that’s always saving them a spot on the couch for belly rubs, or taking a walk through the neighborhood. During rainy days I love to play some tug-o-war, practice simple training, or take a cozy nap!

Exceptional Care for Your Pet

Pet care experience

I enjoy every opportunity I get to spend some time with furry friends. I am proud to be the person that family and friends contact when they need someone to care for their loved one. While I’m your pet’s primary caregiver, my fiancé and I are both lifelong animal lovers and work together to make sure your pet feels right at home! We are two active individuals and we are full of energy when it comes to playing fetch, going for long walks, or even just giving some belly rubs. As we are young and travel frequently, we don’t have a pet of our own, but all pets are loved as if they were ours!

The pictures say it all. Otis is so happy and comfortable with Marissa. She treats him so well and I love the pictures she sends. It’s so great to have found a forever friend for Otis 💕.

I can tell from the pictures Marissa sent that Roscoe had a great stay. She is so kind and goes above & beyond to make him feel extra comfortable. It feels like it's Roscoe's second home. I am so thankful we found her and Garrett to care for my senior boy!

It’s always a special treat when Otis gets to go and spend time with Marissa and Garrett. You can see how much they love him and his tail never stops wagging💕I’m so glad I have Marissa and I am very confident she will take great care of Otis and I love getting the pictures which tell me how happy he is. I highly recommend Marissa.
