Pet care experience

As a dog mom to both a high-energy GSP and an IVDD weenie, I’ve learned how to balance active fun with attentive, specialized support. I bring 10+ years of dog sitting experience and offer drop-ins, walks, and day care for pups of all ages and needs. I’m also experienced in administering medication and managing daily routines. Your dog will get personalized care, plenty of affection, and a safe, positive environment every time they’re with me.

Marissa was very responsive and sent great photos when she came to check on our senior pup for us. I would definitely book her again.

We used Marissa for 5 hours of doggy sitting with our golden and she was great. Quick to respond and our puppy seated very happy in the photos and when we picked him up.

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
