Lisa M
OWNER & CAREGIVER
Lisa Marie is the founder of Integrity Pets & Property Care, operating under the umbrella brand Merm’s Treasure Chest, LLC. She founded the business with a vision of creating dependable, relationship-based pet and property care rooted in professionalism, compassion, communication, and integrity.
After being diagnosed with Long Covid and dystonia in November 2022 — following years of undiagnosed dystonia symptoms dating back to 2005 — Lisa was forced to reevaluate her career path and rebuild life in a way that aligned with both her health needs and her lifelong passion for caring for others. What began as a deeply personal season of uncertainty ultimately became the foundation for building a purpose-driven business centered on trust, resilience, and meaningful service.
A licensed educator through the Ohio State Board of Education, Lisa holds certification as a Professional Intervention Specialist (K–12) along with a TESOL endorsement (Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages). Her professional background in education, communication, diverse learners, and family support brings a high level of responsibility, organization, and trustworthiness to every client relationship.
As a member of Pet Sitters International, Lisa is committed to maintaining professional standards within the pet care industry while continuing to grow a business built on accountability, consistency, and personalized care.
Lisa believes pets thrive best in the comfort and familiarity of their own homes and is passionate about building trusted relationships with both clients and their pets while providing genuine peace of mind during every visit.
