Pet care experience

Lifelong Dog Lover & Cat Mom of 3

Hi! I’ve grown up with dogs my entire life and currently care for three cats of my own. Animals have always been part of my family, and I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet. I’m patient, attentive, and comfortable with different personalities — from energetic dogs to independent or shy cats. I provide regular updates and photos so you always feel at ease while you’re away. After losing our family dog, I truly understand how special that bond is, and I treat every pet with the same love and care I would my own.

Safety, trust & environment

In my home, my cats are indoor-only for safety, but I’ve built them a fully gated catio so they can safely enjoy outdoor time. I prioritize secure environments, supervision, and maintaining consistent routines to keep pets comfortable and stress-free. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I always respect your space, your rules, and your pet’s established routine. I understand that consistency is important, so I follow feeding schedules, exercise routines, and any specific instructions closely. My goal is to make your pet feel safe and cared for while you’re away — and to leave your home exactly as I found it.

Marissa was great with Chance. They had a little meet & greet and that’s all it took. Chance was very comfortable with Marissa and decided to go to bed!!! We’ve already booked her for a couple more visits

Marissa was a big hit with Chance…. After the meet and greet, he felt so comfortable, he laid right down and went to sleep! We’ve already scheduled Marissa for future visits. See you soon Marissa!

Marissa S. provides safe, loving care because she treats every animal like they’re her own. She’s attentive, patient, and genuinely tuned in to each pet’s individual needs and personality. I’ve seen how intentional she is about creating a secure environment, making sure pets feel comfortable, stimulated, and protected at all times. Yes, she has cared for my pets, and I fully trust her. She communicates clearly, follows instructions carefully, and always goes the extra mile to make both pets and owners feel at ease. What makes Marissa truly awesome is her heart, she’s dependable, respectful, and naturally nurturing. Any pet in her care is not just supervised, but genuinely loved.

Schedule

Pet care fits naturally into my weekly routine. I have a consistent work schedule, with Wednesdays and Thursdays fully open and flexible for bookings. Sunday through Tuesday, I work morning shifts and am available after 4pm for walks, drop-ins, or evening care. On Fridays and Saturdays, I’m available after 9pm for late-night visits, weekend plans, or overnight care. I’m very communicative and always willing to coordinate ahead of time to make sure scheduling works smoothly for both of us.
