I work a hybrid corporate job, which gives me a flexible schedule to care for your pup. On Mondays, Thursdays, and Fridays, I work from home, so I can stop by before work, during lunch, or after work to fit your dog’s needs. On Tuesdays and Wednesdays, I’m available for visits after work. Whether your pup needs a quick potty break, a long walk, or some playtime and cuddles, I’m happy to make it work!

Pet care experience

I’ve been petsitting for friends, family, and neighbors since I was a child - caring for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and personalities. From energetic puppies to senior dogs needing extra care, I have experience handling a variety of needs. I also have a family dog of my own, a 12 year old maltipoo, so I understand the love and attention every pup deserves. Whether your dog needs a playmate, a walking buddy, or just some extra tlc, I’m here to help!

Carisa was absolutely amazing. She kept me updated and sent me so many pictures dropping off my dog at daycare. I get so anxious when I have to have someone else take her and she relieved all that anxiety! She was always right on time taking her and provided me with constant update. You can tell she cares so much and is absolutely great!

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
