Pet care experience

Reliable pet lover with experience!

Hi!! My name is Marissa Gordon, I’m 27, married and own a bi-level home with lots of space. I have a backyard with a large deck overlooking a woodsy ravine that dogs love hanging out on to watch wildlife and relax with us! Our house is setup to keep your pets separated from ours if necessary- with 2 living rooms upstairs and downstairs. We love watching movies with them and taking them on nature walks in our neighborhood!

Schedule

I am a business owner so I am able to work my schedule around caring for your pets. I can tend to them and may need to leave the house for appointments no longer than 3 hours if needed but my husband also is home in the case I can’t be there 24/7.

Safety, trust & environment

We keep your pets areas clean and cozy. Temperature controlled, access to water and we take them out to the yard when they need to potty and for walks if possible.

A typical day

We love to have movie nights with blankets and pillows in the living room when they are feeling sleepy. We will take them out to the deck to play and walk them if weather permits!

I recommend letting me know if your animal is comfortable with other pets or not, I can separate them all no problem but my dog does love making friends!
