Active dog lover🐾

Pet care experience

Hi I'm Marissa! I am an active dog lover! I currently live in Toms River with my four dogs! A pitbull mutt, a daushound, a chihuahua terrier and a shnoodle!! I've grown up around many dogs and have always been the one to babysit my friends dogs! I am always the first person to want to help fur babies! Whether it has been volunteering at animal shelters or saving dogs from off the street, I am always here to look after pups!

Marissa was absolutely wonderful! She came when expected and took really great care of our Willow girl. She communicated with pictures and updates which eased our minds so much! We definitely will be booking with her again, highly recommend!

Marissa babysat my dog for two nights and took great care of my big boy! She listened to all my instructions and made sure he got his daily Dasquin. I felt comfortable knowing she was going to hang by his side for the majority of the stay. I’ll def use her again in the future.

Marissa has taken care of my 2 dogs multiple times while my family has been on day trips. Marissa has walked them and fed them, she has always been a responsible and reliable person I can count on to take care of my dogs when I am not home. My dogs are like children to me and I am so lucky to have someone as trustful as Marissa to take care of them.

Marissa is a wonderful pet caregiver who takes great care of my Beagle, Savannah when I’m away! She absolutely loves her, and there’s no one else I would trust to remember all her needs. On top of that, her love for all animals is clear as day. She’s very nurturing, and I’ve literally seen her rescue two large dogs off the street (one of which was injured, as her paw got run over) and nurse each back to health, providing a loving home until her search for the dog’s owners finally came to an end nearly a week later. She’s just a great person who takes excellent care of her own dog, Newt, as well, so I doubt anyone would ever have to worry about their pet in her hands.

Safety, trust & environment

I do not offer in home watching, as I already have three dogs, but in someone else's home I am able to come in and do as you'd like with the pup whether it be walks, letting them out in the backyard, or following whatever schedule necessary!

Information Marissa T. would like to know about your pet

I would like to know their preferences as to whether they'd like to be pet or not. It is also important to know how the feel about new people and what type of approach to take to get to know them. All dogs are different and have their own ways of feeling comfortable with new people. Whether it takes a treat or a belly rub I will do whatever is necessary! It is also important to know how they feel about other dogs, incase we see ant on walks. If they are dogs who will run when not leashed or able to run around without a restraint!

A typical day

We can go on walks everyday! I love to go to Cattus Island on the weekends and we could go there and look at all the wildlife! I used to live in a very hiking friendly area so I am always trying to find new ones around Toms River and would love to bring your pup!
