Our Bristol Dog Walker Team Manager!

Jodie joined Friends for Pets in 2010 as a pet carer. She has always loved animals since childhood and has owned a rabbit, cats, hamsters and 4 dogs. She lives in Bristol with her family and her Cockapoo, Coco. During her time as a pet carer, Jodie was also working for a local charity whilst juggling the demands of a young family. After leaving her charity role to spend more time with her family she was given the opportunity to become more involved with Friends for Pets which led to her taking over the management of the Bristol team in May 2025. Bristol has an excellent team of dedicated pet carers who provide a range of pet sitting services across Bristol and surrounding areas in South Glos. We are always looking to expand our Team so please get in touch if you would like to know more about becoming a pet carer.

Marisa

My name is Marisa and I live in Bristol. I own a 5 year old Goldador (golden retriever x Labrador) called Farthing and a 13 year old British shorthair cat called Zelda. After volunteering for Guide Dogs in my gap year, I wanted a career in looking after animals and that's where I found Friends For Pets. And now 4 years later, I wouldn't dream of doing anything else.
The best part of being a pet carer is no matter how bad a day I'm having, when I go to pick dogs up for their walk, they are always so happy to see me. They all never fail to make me smile. I love it.
I reckon the worse part is the British weather! Always unpredictable when walking doggies!
When I'm not walking doggies, I like to catch up on my favourite shows, play video games and read books. An interesting fact is I have a BSc(Hons) degree in Forensic Chemistry but always felt working with animals was what I truly wanted to do.
