Pet care experience
Active & Caring Dog Sitter
Hi there! I’ve grown up with dogs my entire life - everything from big, playful labs, to small dachshunds and terriers. I’ve always been the go-to sitter for friends and neighbors, and I truly love getting to know each dog’s unique personality. I work remotely with a flexible schedule, so your pup will get plenty of attention, walks, and playtime. As a distance runner, I’m also happy to take high-energy dogs on longer walks or runs.

Safety, trust & environment
When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow their usual routine as closely as possible to keep pets comfortable and stress free. I make sure they’re fed on schedule, get plenty of playtime and affection, and that their space stays clean and tidy.
Ratings and reviews
This was the third time using Calista for Norman and Zoe. She is consistent with her care, and it’s helpful having someone who already knows the dogs and their routine. Everything went as expected.
Calista is so dependable and we really trust her with our girls!
This was the second time Calista watched our two dachshunds, and she was once again phenomenal. She stayed for 6 days and we felt completely at ease knowing they were in such good hands. It’s such a relief to have a sitter we can truly trust—she did a great job and the dogs clearly love her!"
Attentive, easy to work with, and great communication. Would certainly use her again to watch our dogs.
Handled our crazy 1 year old golden amazingly!
I highly recommend Clarissa! She stayed at my house for a week to watch my two dachshunds, and I couldn't be happier. As a dachshund owner, I’m always nervous about leaving my two little ones, but she was incredible. It was clear my dogs were in great hands. she kept me updated with daily pictures, and followed every instruction perfectly. My dogs were happy and relaxed when I got back. If you’re looking for someone reliable and caring, she is the one!

Schedule
Pet care fits easily into my daily routine since I work remotely and have a flexible schedule. I can give pets attention throughout the day for walks, playtime, feeding, cuddles, and adjust my work hours around their needs.
