About Marissa

Experience: 5 yrs

Hello, I have been in caregiving for animals and in childcare for the past 8 years. I board animals, walk pets, and do drop-ins. There is something special about providing a safe, loving place for a pet whenever mom or dad are away. I understand how impactful it is to have sitters that truly care. Animals are just like us; sensitive, intelligent beings-desiring love, affection, and connection. More than ball throwing, although, super important too! ;) I use gentleness in my care for them. I talk to them - I sing to them - I massage them - I see them. We will have loads of fun at my house, or I can come to you! What makes your pet special? What are their needs, anxieties, health conditions, likes, or triggers, etc. I would like to know prior to the visit so we can ensure the best care is provided and all their needs met. Meet&greets or trial runs will be necessary. Let's get them feeling comfortable, together! I look forward to meet with you + your precious fur-babies!!!
