Pet care experience
Just for you!
Hi there! 🐾 My name is Marissa, and if you’re looking for someone who will care for your pets like family, I’m the perfect fit! I’ve always had a deep love for animals and treat every pet as if they were my own—whether it’s daily walks, playtime, cuddles, or just making sure they feel safe and loved while you’re away. I’m responsible, attentive, and experienced with a variety of animals, from energetic pups to shy cats and everything in between. I understand that every pet has its own personality and needs, and I always take the time to learn what makes them feel happiest and most comfortable. Your pet’s well-being is my #1 priority. With me, you’ll get someone who’s dependable, gentle, and truly passionate about animal care. Whether you’re heading out for a day or taking a longer trip, you can trust that your furry friend is in caring hands. I’d love to meet your pet and see if I’m the right match!❤️

Schedule
I make sure to plan my days around the needs of the pets I care for, whether that means morning walks, scheduled feedings, or playtime. I always allow enough time so that each pet gets my full attention—I’m never rushed. Caring for animals isn’t just something I do occasionally—it’s something I prioritize. Whether I’m watching a pet for a few days or stopping by for daily visits, I treat it like a serious responsibility and part of my lifestyle. Their comfort, safety, and happiness are always top of mind for me.
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
When pets stay in my home, I make sure they feel safe, relaxed, and part of the family. I keep a calm, clean, and pet-friendly environment with plenty of love, attention, and playtime. I stick to their regular routine as closely as possible—whether that’s feeding times, walks, or medications—so they feel comfortable and secure. I also provide updates and photos so their owners can see how happy and well-cared-for they are!
A typical day
When I watch pets, I make sure they have fun and feel loved! I tailor activities to match their personality, age, and energy level. For dogs, that might include walks, playtime with their favorite toys, tug-of-war, fetch, or even little training games to keep their mind active. If they like the outdoors, I’ll take them on safe adventures around the neighborhood or in pet-friendly parks (with the owner’s permission, of course). For cats, I keep them entertained with toys, laser pointers, feather wands, and cozy cuddle sessions—whatever they enjoy most. I also love spending time just talking to them and making sure they feel calm and comfortable, especially if they’re shy or missing their owner. Every pet is different, so I take the time to learn what makes them happiest and make sure they’re having fun while staying safe.
