About Marissa W.
Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
My approach to caring for pets is adaptable to both my own home and my clients' homes, based on the specific service required. When pets come into my home, I create a comfortable and safe environment that mimics their usual routines as closely as possible. This includes designated feeding times, regular walks, playtime, and cozy resting spaces. For dogs, I often take advantage of nearby parks or walking trails to ensure they get their exercise and mental stimulation. My own cat's love for exploration has inspired me to offer leash walks for dogs who enjoy outdoor adventures. In clients' homes, I prioritize maintaining the familiar surroundings that pets are accustomed to. I follow any provided schedules for feeding, medication, and playtime meticulously. This helps alleviate any stress or anxiety pets might experience while their owners are away. Whether it's ensuring litter boxes are clean, fresh water is available, or administering necessary medications, I am thorough and attentive. Additionally, I'm more than happy to accommodate any special requests, such as specific dietary needs or grooming routines. Ultimately, my goal is to provide a seamless experience for both pets and their owners, whether they're staying with me or I'm caring for them in their own homes. This consistency and personalized attention contribute to the overall well-being and happiness of the pets under my care.
Information Marissa W. would like to know about your pet
If they have any preferences or dislikes to specific things, as well as if they have allergies I need to be aware of. I am very observant so if there are behaviors I need to be aware of to look for.
A typical day
I love taking dogs on walks, and allowing them to be outdoors or playing with their toys. I am aware of the Florida heat and not having them out too long. However, once I am comfortable with the pet and they are with me I have no issues taking them to coffee shops or the beaches if it is okay with the owner.

Pet care experience
As a dedicated pet lover with a unique edge, I stand out from the rest through my exceptional skills and experiences. With a needy yet lovable cat of my own, I understand the importance of catering to pets' specific needs. My feline friend has taught me the art of adventurous exploration, including leash walks and a constant need for companionship. Growing up with dogs has instilled in me a deep appreciation for canine companions, and I've honed my abilities to provide top-notch care for both dogs and cats. Whether it's training energetic puppies or offering gentle care for seniors, I bring a well-rounded approach to pet sitting that ensures tails keep wagging and whiskers keep twitching.
Reviews
Marissa is awesome! She was excellent with our Shilo. We would definitely book with her again.
Marissa is fantastic with Peyton. Marissa is very dependable, and Peyton is so excited to see her when she arrives. Marissa doesn’t hesitate to reach out and ask questions when needed, and also keeps our girl very active. You won’t be disappointed with Marissa’s care for your fur baby.
Marissa is a Pet Lover!!! She has been the care giver for my dogs many times and occasionally for a full week. She is active and fit herself and loves to go for walks or runs. She is a fun loving and spirited and quite comfortable with pets and pet parents. Highly recommend.
