I am an outgoing animal lover !

Pet care experience

Hello! My name is Marissa and I LOVE animals! I have 4 cats that I help take care of, a dog and have helped take care of friends and families' fur babies on multiple occasions. I have taken care of animals with medical needs. When I am in NorCal for school I walk and help take care of three medium-sized dogs. One of the dogs is half pitbull, one half mastiff and the other is a small terrier mix. The larger pups are high energy and the other is a smaller dog. At home (in SoCal) I help with 7 chickens, 4 cats and a dog. I am a full time student; but I would love to help care and love your pup too! Thank you for your time and consideration! Since I am both a student in NorCal and return home for the holidays to SoCal; it is difficult for me to confirm my calendar with Rover. I am typically in NorCal August 20-December 20, and again from January 11-May 20. If it's outside of these dates I am most likely in SoCal.

Again, Marissa was fantastic! After hiring her for a short trip we had to get her again for our long trip. Everything was taken care of and my kitty was healthy and happy. Thank you Marissa!

Marissa was absolutely amazing! I just have one cat that I love very much and Marissa kept me updated with how much she ate and how playful she was. I went away on a 4th of July trip so I knew my cat would get scared from the fireworks but that she would be alright, I didn’t know she would also experience two earthquakes! Marissa made sure my cat was alright. I’m booking her again for my next vacation.

Marissa was AWESOME!!! SO stressful having to travel and leave my babies. Here care and providing for my pets was a real relief. Thanks Marissa!

If you have a chance to hire Marissa, DO IT! Marissa started walking my dogs when I sprained my ankle last September and has been "part of our pack" since then. She is absolutely kind and loving to my three dogs; a one year old mastiff/pit Prince, 3 year old pit Happy (who was a rescue from a long shelter stay), and 15 year old lab Audrey. My dogs are not "easy". They are strong and full of energy, but Marissa has handled them beautifully! She takes them on a variety of long walks. She has been incredibly reliable even as a full time student at the university. My dogs and I LOVE her. She frequently sends me sweet photos from their walks (like the first time Prince saw a deer on a trail). My daughter and sons dogs visit occasionally and Marissa has walked them too. She has even helped around my house when needed AND cleaned up dog poo from the yard! I own two small businesses, so I know an excellent employee...Marissa is excellent. Reliability and punctuality are a constant with her. She is a highly self motivated and thoughtful young woman. We will miss her incredibly but wish her all the best. If you have a chance to hire her, you are fortunate!

Information Marissa W. would like to know about your pet

I usually would like to know right away if the dog gets along with other dogs, what kind of training the dogs have had, and how old is the pup.

A typical day

I usually try to keep the dogs active and go to local parks and trails. I love to play with the pups, keep them company if their family is out for the day or at work. If the owner allows I would take the pup to a dog park, or on a hike.
