I ❤️Dogs & Kittys and they love me!
Pet care experience
Friends call me Sunny! I live in Melody Ranch and absolutely love it here! I used to nanny for 2 dogs (and a family of course) in Westchester NY and created a very adorable Instagram for the pup @marleethemagnificent. I grew up with dogs in my life every step of the way, but am currently a cat mom (never thought I would say that)! Alas, my kittys name is Penny and I adopted her during Covid. She has trouble with strangers but we are doing lots of behavioral therapy to help with that 🤣 SO, I am very comfortable taking care of both dogs and cats! I spend a lot of time walking and hiking, so I can assure you your dog will be pooped by the time they greet you again! If your dog likes to take it slow, no worries, me too. I also love to go for slow mindful walks. If you are looking for a cat sitter- there is no cat that could deter me (as I have the most difficult and crazy cat). I am deeply empathetic to anyone who’s cat or dogs rules their life and would love to help out where I can!
Reviews
Amazing sitter, she and my kitty loves eachother and Carissa was loving and caring. She sent several pictures and videos of my happy kitty and am super appreciative.
Carissa was AMAZING! I get a little uneasy when my doggo meets new people. She is a bigger dog and can be HIGH engergy and to much for some people. My baby LOVED her from the first meet and greet! Carissa was always on time and gave me updates with pics and videos. I will definitely be using her again in the future/anytime time I need to go out of town. Highly recommend!
Carissa is our current nanny for our infant son, but she is truly so much more than that. She's become a trusted part of our family. With that it includes helping care for our almost two year old Great Pyrenees, Ophelia. She takes her for walks, feeds her and gives her plenty of love and attention. It's clear she is an animal lover and we would trust her any time to watch our precious Ophelia!
Carissa is the most caring, kind and loving human that I know to every individual she meets. Don’t even get me started on animals! With a dog of my own, Carissa is one of the few people I trust to take care of my girl, who does not stop smiling the entire time Carissa is near! She will go above and beyond and care for your pet as if it were her own. I couldn’t think of a better person to trust to look after your fur baby.. book her and I assure you the tail wags will tell you all you need to know!!

Information Carissa D. would like to know about your pet
Just let me know what they like, what they don’t! I won’t introduce your dogs to strangers- just not comfortable doing that if owner isn’t there!
A typical day
I would love to take your dog wherever they like to walk! I’ve also got awesome trails near where I live in melody ranch that I enjoy! As for your kitty, if they like laser pointer play, I’ve got you! Do they like to chase feathers on a stick? I am the ultimate cat whisperer so whatever your cat enjoys, I’m here for it!
