Pet care experience

Hey There! I am Carissa Herb and I know that finding someone to watch your pet is not an easy decision to make. Especially when they're like extra limbs. I assure you that my years of growing up on a farm with the generic cows, pigs, horses, chickens, and the more interesting rescue pigeon has well prepared me to give your dog all the love and attention they deserve. Plus who can love your dog more than a vegetarian. I have always had more than three dogs at a time in my life since I was born starting with labs and moving up through mutts, shit tzu, malte-poo, and Maltese Pomeranian. Right now my family's grand total of pets is five dogs, four cats, and one rat. If you have any questions or concerns please just let me know. I look forward to meeting you and your dog! -Carissa :)

Carissa was absolutely wonderful and I would highly recommend her. She is very personable, easy to talk too, and very calm and poised. She obviously loves dogs and you can tell she has a lot of experience with them. She was extremely comfortable and loving around our furry family member. She was also great at communicating with us, before the job and during. She asked a lot of questions, patiently listened to my rambling, and followed all of our instructions. We won’t hesitate to hire her again and have nothing but good things to say about her. I think you’ll love her too.

It has been our pleasure to get to know Carissa and to partner with her in caring for our puppy. She is responsive, caring, detail-oriented and punctual. The dog absolutely adores her and sits by the door after she leaves. We 100% recommend her!

Information Carissa A. would like to know about your pet

I would love to know if your dog is afraid of anything; loud noises, flip flops, microwaves. The last thing I want is to put your baby under any unnecessary stress.

A typical day

I go on evening runs so if you pick me to watch your dog it will get physical activity and be outdoors. I'm a sucker for some sunshine and from what I know dogs love it just as much.
