Pet care experience

For the last two years I was working at a big pet lodging facility in the Houston area. I was known as an activities counselor so I responsible for all the activities that were assigned for the day and making sure they were done in a timely manner. I also was group approved so I supervised group plays (small and large) and had up to 15 dogs by myself. Working at this facility gave me the opportunity with working with all types of breeds and also all types of temperaments so I have a plethora of experience with all types of dogs.

Marissa was great with our 17 year old Sofie. She stayed in our home and was very responsible. Her communication was wonderful. Sofie liked her, which was what’s most important; the stroller walks together sealed the deal. It’s always nerve wracking to have someone new in your home, but you don’t have to worry about Marissa. I would not hesitate to use her services again.

Safety, trust & environment

The most important thing is that your sweet pets feel safe and as stress free as possible. I'll make sure to give them attention, plenty of exercise/playtime, and cuddles (depending on if they are okay with that). My house is clean, and if I do sit at the clients home I'll make sure to leave it just like you left it.

Information Marissa W. would like to know about your pet

Feeding schedule, how long they can be alone, any temperaments or behavioral issues, how they are around other dogs/cats when on walks, any aggressions (food, toys, fence, etc).

A typical day

Explore the neighborhood, play time, cuddles and affection, plenty of walks or backyard time, treats, brushing (if they need it), dog parks (if you are comfortable with it).
