“Our Cavoodle loves her walks with Marisa and team. She gets so excited to see them and has the most wonderful time on her walks.” - Becky Warne
“I needed to find a regular day care option for my 6 month old very active and very very social Australian shepherd and I was recommended Marissa from my Puppy School trainer. Marissa has been so good for my girl after regular visits for the past month. Her older kelpie, Rusty pulls my dog into line which is ideal. She has helped to settle her down around other dogs, appropriate play and walk On lead with other dogs. On top of that, Marissa loves the dogs she cares for and welcomes them into her house so openly. I highly recommend Marissa's service. This is Marisa looking after my girl.” - Anne Meacham
“Marisa looked after our old miniature schnauzer recently overnight. I felt very comfortable leaving him with her for the first time. He was cared and loved for and I could see how happy and settled he was from the videos Marisa sent me whilst we were away. Marisa is super friendly and flexible. Would definitely use her services again and highly recommend her!” - Lindsay Warren
“I have a beautiful Alaskan Shepherd called Rambo. He is always so happy to be walked and minded by Marisa. I can’t recommend Marisa highly enough! I love my baby and I feel so happy and relaxed when he is with Marisa and the fam! Thanks Marisa, you are awesome and have also become an amazing friend who I’d like to see more after lock down. Jane and Rambo x” - Jane Hudson
“Any furry families needing looking after while their owners go to work, I personally recommend Rusty's owner helping you. Call on them when in need. Tell them her Big Bro recommended her and they will be happy to assist.” - Mark Cicala
“Marisa really forms a bond and relationship with the dogs which certainly puts your mind at ease when they are in her care and company! She takes care of them as her own and I recommend her services.” - Aimee Bate
“My dog loves his walks with Marisa and her doggy pals. She seems to understand his quirkiness well and is thoughtful about who she puts together. 5 star service!!” - Maria Dunn
“Marissa is great and very professional.” - Marine Prouvost
“Marisa is the dog whisperer of the Northern Beaches. Our lively English Springer Spaniel has never been better behaved, nor has he ever whined at the gate with joy when I arrive home.....but he does when he sees her car arrive . Marisa has a passion and a gift with fur babies.” - Jac Payne
“We were lucky enough to have had our little Shmoodle girl, Lulu, looked after by Marisa whilst we were away for two weeks. I can only recommend Marisa most highly. She has a beautiful nature with people and dogs and is kind and gentle yet firm to keep the dogs happy knowing that she is the pack leader. Marisa kept us informed of activities that Lulu was enjoying and gave us lots of feedback with messages, videos and photos. We were able to relax knowing that our pet was in expert and loving care. We returned to pick up a happy bubbly Lulu and lots of stories about what she and the other dogs in care, got up to. Lulu made new friends in Rusty ( Marisa’s dog) and Rosie, a guest dog. We took Lulu home and we are sure that she’s super sad at missing daily walks to the lake and swims and playtime with the rest of the team at Marisa’s. We’re sad for her too... but like our own Hawaiian holiday, all good things must come to an end. Thank you Marisa for taking Lulu and I hope that you will be willing to take her next time she needs a holiday.” - Rosaria Carlo-Stella
“Marisa genuinely cares about the dogs in her care. She is so warm, kind and considerate. I feel 100% confident in leaving our dog with Marisa & her lovely family when we go on holidays.” - Shelley Marsland
“Oscar my schnoodle waits on top of the sofa looking for Marisa to arrive, great service” - Sarah Benjes
“Marisa took wonderful care of our dog Fonzie whilst we were away overseas. We came home and couldn’t believe how excited and energetic Fonzie was, as if we never left. It was great to see him on her Instagram page too, knowing he was in good hands and practically having a holiday himself with all the care Marisa was giving to him!” - Isabella Narcisi
“I cannot rate Marisa's dog walking enough my Bertie boy the airedale adores her and goes mental everytime she comes round to walk him..Marisa has not only been walking our Bert 2 times a week but also saved his life six months ago when she had taken him for a walk she noticed he wasn't quite right she called me straight away and rushed him to the local vets..when Bert arrived at the vets he was close to death..if it had not been for Marisa her caring attitude and going that extra mile I know our Bert would not be with us today..she is best dog walker I have ever had on the Northern Beaches.” - Samantha Marshall
“Marisa has been walking my 2 year old,Border Terrier, Theo for over 6 months. Theo has always been a distracted and unfocused walker. He is very social and submissive . Which makes for a slow walk most times. With in a short amount of time of Marisa taking Theo on weekly walks, he started improving. I just wanted to thank Marisa and Rusty for all their time and patience. Marisa has such a positive energy and Theo rushes to the door to greet her each time. I think that shows how amazing she is with our 4 legged friends. Thank you for all your time and effort. Sam Taylor and Theo.” - Sam Taylor
