Very professional and trustworthy with our two large dogs when watching overnight and when dog walking. Definitely will be first choice in pet sitting in the future.

I just recently had Marissa watch my 2 golden retrievers while I recently traveled out of the country. Compared to previous pet-sitters I have had, she wholeheartedly surpassed them and further exceeded my expectations. She clearly followed my instructions perfectly and even provided updates every morning and night on how the dogs were doing. From the pictures, it seemed like my dogs had a great time and loved her. She is also very friendly to interact with; you can clearly tell that she loves animals and cares for them just like her own. I recommend if anyone is looking for a kind, caring, and compassionate pet sitter, I would gladly recommend her.

I have witnessed the unconditional love and care that Marissa has towards animals of any kind alongside a deeper form of concern and attention to detail when it comes to an animal's overall well-being. Growing up, Marissa was an individual who looked past an animal's demeanor into their overall health, constantly checking on their diet, injuries, and exercise habits. Recently, Marissa has been the one in charge when it comes our dogs, Pebbles and Lefty, in regards to their medication, health, and overall lifestyle as they grow older in age. This attention to detail and responsibility concerning pets applies across the board. An example would be our two hamsters, Mira and Tilly, who she took care (feeding, cleaning, playing with them, etc.) until their natural end. To anyone who wishes to leave their pet in the hands of a considerate, knowledgeable, and responsible individual, I vouch for Marissa.
