WFH couple! Very flexible schedule.

Pet care experience

My wife (Marissa) and I manage this account together. We are huge dog lovers. We both had to put our dogs down within the past couple of years and haven’t been quite ready to have a new fur baby yet. We love hosting other friends in our home. We have both spent our whole lives around dogs either as our own family members or pet sitting for others. My dog (Hamilton, shown in my profile picture), stayed by my side for 15 years. He made it to 17 years old before losing his fight with cancer. We had to put him down in 2021. Marissa’s dog (Dakota, the black dog on the boat) spent 16 years by her side. She also made it to 17 years old before we had to say goodbye this past February. We would love to give your dog a safe place that feels like their home away from home. We love to spoil our furry friends and do whatever we can to make them feel like royalty. We have experience with all ages, and are comfortable with all breeds. *For dog walking service: Marissa will be providing dog walking services. She is comfortable with all types of breeds, large and small. She always takes over the spunkier dogs when we are walking because she has great control and patience. If your dog is aggressive toward other dogs, she will be able to manage the pass-bys with ease. She is comfortable walking two dogs at time.

Marissa and Will were so great with Milo. I received multiple updates each day and he looked so happy in all the pictures. They took him for runs, played with him in the yard, and let him cuddle with them. It was the first time Milo stayed with someone he didn’t really know and I felt really comfortable that he was happy with them. Marissa and Will are going to be my go-to people from now on ☺️

Will and Marissa were AMAZING. This was Goose’s first time using Rover and staying with people that weren’t family, and he loved it. They sent pictures and updates multiple times a day and were very easy to communicate with. Would give 10 stars if possible ⭐️

They took such good care of our giant puppy. Daily pictures and updates and looks like lots of cuddles and hugs. My dog runs up when he sees the house.to meet them and they are always so kind and warm.

Safety, trust & environment

We live in a one story house with a fenced in backyard for your dog to roam around and enjoy the sunshine/fresh air! We will be happy to crate your dogs as needed but crates must be provided. Pets are allowed on the furniture just not the bed. We adhere strictly to any diets and eating plans that are already established for your dog. For dog walking and play services, Marissa will make sure that your pet gets ample time to get out some energy and have some fun. It can get lonely cooped up in a home all day without much attention, which is why play time/potty time is serious business. Marissa will make sure to give your pet the attention it craves. We can’t wait to meet your pup and make new friends!
