Put your pup in good hands!

Pet care experience

I am from the Philadelphia area and have grown up around dogs big and small. My childhood dog was a cockapoo that I picked out for my family. Now, I have a mini black labradoodle that I rescued named Willie! He enjoys other small dogs and loves walks and fetch. I have dog sat for Rover and friends for years. I will provide your dog with attention and love - I know when you leave your pet with someone you want them to be with someone you can trust! I have a very non traditional work schedule (I am an artist and in grad school part time) and my boyfriend (also a dog lover) works from home so your pup will almost never be alone!

Marissa was fantastic! Very communicative, friendly, and made us feel totally comfortable leaving our little pup with her for a few days. She sent lots of cute photos and updates while we were away and worked within our schedule for drop-off and pick-up. Highly recommend!

Marissa and her pup Willie did a great job watching Sally and keeping her company while we were away. She kept us updated and made us feel very comfortable. You could tell Sally had really enjoyed her stay! Would definitely use Marissa again!

Marissa is absolutely easy to work with and treated Nibbler with so much love and care. Would definitely use her again and recommend her to others.
