Pet care experience
Hi! I'm a lifelong lover of animals with a background in animal behavior and welfare. I'm in London pursuing my PhD in human-animal interactions at UCL and I love getting to know animals, big or small. I'm dearly missing my dog Harley who I've had to leave behind with family whilst I'm in the UK, so I've got plenty of love to share with your four-legged furry friends! I've got some experience training dogs (although please keep in mind I'm not professionally accredited), so I am happy to help out with basic forms of training and enrichment. I only engage with positive reinforcement. I live in a pet-friendly apartment with a large balcony and plenty of green space in my neighbourhood. Pets can roam freely throughout my home and will definitely be showered with lots of love and attention. I can provide basic care for your pet such as feeding them, bringing them on walks, exercising them and playing with them. I can also cater to your specific preferences and needs while caring for your pet like special diets, exercise requirements, or medicine administration. We can absolutely discuss having a crate present in my apartment if your dog is crate-trained, puppy-proofing my apartment for your specific pet's needs, or any other accommodations to make your pet as comfortable as possible.
Reviews
Carisa did a great job! Gave us lots of updates, timely responses, and
Carisa seemed to really enjoy hosting our dog, Butter, which put my mind at ease while traveling internationally. She was SUPER flexible with pick up times and even gave me a little baggie of treats that Butter liked. Great communication and lots of photos. Carisa is very reliable and a great caretaker!

Carisa took great care of my dog, Jura, and sent me adorable pictures of our dogs playing together. I would definitely book through Carisa again!

Information Carisa L. would like to know about your pet
I don't have any breed preferences and I can care for a variety of animals. All animals should be up-to-date with their vaccinations and flea treatments. What is your pet's personality like, how does it get along with other dogs and people? Does he/she get anxious? Is he/she potty trained? What is your dog's normal sleeping arrangement like? Does it sleep on the bed with you? Any special needs/ foods/ medication treatment? Does he/she know any commands? Any aggressive tendencies, or other behaviors, like marking or chewing, to be aware of? Any medical needs, medicine, allergies, foods to avoid?
A typical day
I take pride in making sure that the dogs I take care of are happy and well-exercised. Pups will go on frequent walks with me around my neighborhood, and visits to dog parks can be arranged.
