Patient, dedicated, and flexible!

Pet care experience

Hi, I'm Chris! I love dogs more than anything and would love to have the opportunity to care for yours! I have always owned dogs growing up and have since cared for many dogs in my local community. I live close to many parks to walk dogs in. While I only have a small space with no yard, I like to spend as much time as possible outside. Your dog will never want for attention while I'm around. I love to play and snuggle with dogs. If you are in the process of training your dog, I do have experience in that area and would gladly practice with your dog and reinforce what has already been taught.

Carissa left my dogs safe and sound and the house clean! She kept me updated throughout. Will definitely hire her again.

I have a large dog with a lot of energy, Chris is always so good at playing with him and making him so happy. On walks she is so good problem solving and making sure he doesn’t eat anything funny, and she deescalates situations with other dogs really well.

Carissa definitely has a natural touch with dogs! We have 2 large dogs that don’t do well when boarding. She took great care of them in our home. She responsibly gave medications and genuinely loved spending time with them - making for very happy dogs! Thanks you!

Carissa was great with our Stella. She is a natural with dogs and our pup warmed up to her right away. Carissa is a great communicator and gave us regular updates while watching Stella on an over the weekend stay at our home.

Safety, trust & environment

I live in an apartment with a cat in a very secure apartment complex. We are close to police and fire departments. My apartment has fairly good soundproofing.

Information Carissa B. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if your dog has any behavioral quirks that are important for me to know. For example, do they get along with other dogs/cats, will they run if they get loose, are they going to pull and chase things on walks, etc.

A typical day

I love to stimulate dogs both mentally and physically. I like to start off with a quick walk in the nearest neighborhood and proceed from there gauging how much energy your dog has left. We might stop by a park to play around a little bit or we may head back home to play with some toys!

I am currently working part-time as a barista, so I have plenty of time to care for your pups! My schedule generally varies throughout the week, but I usually have two days off per week.
