Experienced with special needs dogs

Pet care experience

I've always loved dogs, so I've often taken odd jobs caring for them while their owners are away. I love going for walks to get some fresh air, and it's always nice to have a dog companion along. I've mostly taken care of small and medium sized dogs, but I am very comfortable with large dogs as well. I also have experience with dogs who have special needs. I've cared for a dog with seizures and another with lupus, so I'm comfortable giving dogs medications and also following whatever guidelines you have for them. My father has many(large) dogs, so I've spent a lot of time playing with them and taking them for walks. I work in Carlsbad, so I'd be happy to take jobs up in north county as well as down near the hillcrest area. I'm clean, tidy, punctual, and dependable and would be happy to care for your dog/s.

Marissa is the best. We felt great leaving our two dogs in her care. They now are so excited to see her every time she watches them!

Marissa stayed at our house and took care of our dog, Griffey. She communicated often and Griffey seemed great when we got back home! Highly recommend!

Marissa was awesome with our 2 year old German Shepherd. She was very timely with communication, and Scout just loved her! I would highly reccomend Marissa to stay with your pets while you are away!

Marissa has been helping me out with my German Shephard Lab mix, Mochi, ever since I moved to San Diego. I travel quite a bit for work, so she does everything from the occasional walk to overnight stays. Mochi adores her! She takes wonderful care of him, sends me regular updates, and is very respectful of my home. I never worry when he is with her and highly recommend her!
