Marissa always goes above and beyond every time she takes care of my cat. Great communication and very reliable, and I know my cat is in good hands when I'm away. Highly recommended!

Marissa was great with our three cats, watching them for 10 days. She cleaned the litter box daily, provided comments, and always responded promptly if we had any questions or concerns. We have one cat that requires an inhaler and she did great administering the medicine. Additionally, our cats can often be a little picky or anxious around meal time and she handled their specific needs great. It was great coming home to a clean house and well loved cats. Very thankful for her time and great care of our kitties!

Marissa took great care of our cats while we were away for a few days. Even our little shy cat came out for her! House was clean when we got home and cats were happy. Would book her again!

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
