Can't wait to hang with your pets!

Pet care experience

I have a large extended family and I have been everybody's go to pet sitter since I was in highschool. I especially fell in love with animal care when I stayed with my aunt's elderly cat for 4 months. He had such personality and required special medicine. I often took care of my employer's dog and bunny when she was out of town. More recently I have begun to watch friends dogs and cats or run to their homes for emergency potty breaks when they've gotten stuck at work.

Marissa is an excellent caretaker for our very energetic dog Squid. In fact, we're pretty sure Squid is eager for us to leave again so that Marissa will come back.

Marissa was wonderful! My three year old was very sad about leaving her dogs for the weekend but Marissa sent lots of pictures which my daughter just loved!

Marissa is an exceptional caretaker of animals! She is very warm and nurturing, and loves all animals. We have trusted her with the care of our three cats when we have left town and she’s provided them with wonderful care and lots of snuggles. I would highly recommend her as a caretaker of pets!

I've known Marissa for over 20 years and she's wonderful with animals. She is great with my pitbull and gives him so much love. She's honest, hard working and reliable.

I am unable to provide care in my home as I live in a small apartment. I can take care of all your pets needs in your home and am happy to follow any directions and special requests.

Information Marissa W. would like to know about your pet

If your cat/dog needs medication or if there's anything you do not allow them to do (certain rooms or furniture they are not allowed on, etc). I also like to know how they get a long with other dogs, especially neighbor's dogs so that I know what to do if they come on contact.

A typical day

I love taking long walks but am perfectly happy to stay home and play in the backyard with toys if that's what your dog prefers.

I work in retail full time, so my schedule is not the same every day. I am completely off work every other weekend and Tuesdays. Thursdays I am available mornings until 12:00 pm. The other days of the week I typically work 9 to 5:30. If your animal is unable to be left alone for at least 4 hours at a time, I may not be the best fit for you.
