Air Force veteran K9 trainer
Pet care experience
Offering Dog training! Training is a separate fee but can be done during any Rover service. I offer: Basic obedience- Sit, down, stay, recall Crate training Potty training Correcting bad manners such as jumping and leash pulling I use training methods such as classical conditioning which I can explain more in depth during our meet and greet. I recently separated from the Air Force after serving for 10 years. A little over 7 years being a K9 handler and trainer. My experience includes caring for a multitude of animals such as dogs, cats, equine and small mammals. I am also willing to answer a lot of training questions you might have for your dog or even cat after I spend some time with them.
Reviews
Karissa has been great for Niko, and Nova. She has come to do drop in visits for them. She has been able to accommodate our schedule. I’ve even had her help us with some training too!
Karissa is lovable, caring selfless person who not just gives to other but loves animals just the same. I could recommend a higher pet caregiver. Working as a k9 handler for the last 7 years I’ve never met anyone as passionate as her.
Karissa is one of the most responsible and caring caregivers I have ever had for my animals. Knowledgeable trainer too! I would recommend her services.
I'd highly recommend having Karissa care for your pets. Her passion for all animals makes her the perfect sitter for your fur babies. With her 10+ years of experience, she has a tremendous depth of knowledge with extensive involvement in a wide range of training and behavioral situations. She has the natural ability to understand all types of dogs and cats and will take care of your babies as if they were her own.
