Pet care experience

Dog lover with flexible schedule

Hi! I’m a lifelong dog lover who’s been caring for dogs for the past five years. I’m comfortable with puppies, senior dogs, and dogs of all sizes, so I’m happy to adapt to each pup’s unique needs and personality. I work from home, which means your dog will have company and supervision throughout the day. I can administer medications, provide potty breaks and walks every 2–4 hours, and I have a fenced yard for safe outdoor time and play. I also have a friendly Pomsky who loves making new dog friends if your pup enjoys socializing. My goal is to make every dog feel safe, loved, and right at home while you’re away. I can’t wait to meet you and your furry family member!

Pets

Safety, trust & environment

I work from home full-time, so your pet will have company and supervision throughout the day. Dogs go outside for potty breaks every 2–4 hours, enjoy walks, playtime, and plenty of attention. I can easily accommodate feeding schedules, administer medications if needed, and stick to your pet’s normal routine to help them feel comfortable and at home.

Marlissa was excellent! She took great care of my dog Ash and sent lots of pictures to keep me up to date.

Marlissa was an excellent Rover walker and really came through for us at the last minute when I needed to be at a work event. She was super responsive, friendly, and very sweet with my senior pup. We'd love to have her back to help with Amos again in the near future!

My Pomsky is very friendly, social, and enjoys having canine companions. He’s up to date on vaccinations and does well with dogs of all sizes. I always supervise introductions to make sure everyone is comfortable and safe. My dog is accustomed to sharing our home, but I only accept pets that are dog-friendly.
