About Marissa

I have always been the type of person to look for the pet at a party and ask my friends how their four legged family members are doing in a phone call. As such, petsitting was a natural profession for me when I started in 2016. I have taken care of a variety of dog and cat breeds as well as more unconventional pets such as lizards and snakes! I don't do any petsitting in my home but have been petsitting at clients homes since I first started, overnight and daily trips, and I make sure to be respectful and clean. I am an American Citizen here on a working holiday visa, learning to be a Wollongong local and staying with my sister who has lived in the area for over five years now. 

I grew up with pets in the home and most recently lived by my parents who had three dogs ,an elderly boxer mix, a mini labradoodle and a pitbull whom I walked and watched regularly alongside just about all of the pets in their neighborhood. I do not breed discriminate and I understand the grooming needs of long haired and curly haired pets. I have experience in giving pets medication as well and work hard to meet the needs of my clients (both human and pets) in every capacity.

I provide overnight sitting at clients homes as well as walking during the day and daytime visits.

If you are looking for an experienced dog walker, overnight friend for your furry family during vacation, or just a pop in visit, look no further!
