Responsible and reliable Dog Sitter

Pet care experience

I’ve grown up with dogs and cats and loving furry friends! I’m responsible, reliable, interactive, and care about making sure your dog is safe, healthy and well taken care of. I’ve taken care of all different breeds and ages - from puppy to senior, from lab to put bull. I’m responsive and great with communication and will treat your animal as if it were my own. I work during the day Monday through Friday, so I’m able to walk early mornings or past 5pm. I’m available for sitting evenings and weekends. I have a cute orange cat that gets lots of love and play time. I’ve had previous experience with crating dogs, walking on leash and off leash.

Carissa was wonderful. She took great care of our two dogs and sent plenty of photos and updates. We will definitely be using her again!

Carissa came and checked on my cat for two weeks. She was fantastic. She checked in every day and even followed up on questions I had while away. She is highly recommended by me.

Carissa was very communicative and put my mind at ease while caring for my cat, Sue. She made sure to send photo updates of Sue getting lots of pets and I felt like I had left him in good hands. I would definitely recommend Carissa to other folks with pets!

Safety, trust & environment

I make sure to take care of the pets I watch by reading instructions closely, asking questions if needed, making sure I am available to be easily contacted, keeping doors closed and locked, making sure animals do not have access to things they aren’t allowed to, maintaining a clean and organized environment, and following proper feeding schedules.

Information Carissa G. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if your pet has special needs, is reactive to other animals, is shy around humans, how to administer medications, how to access the residence, and anything else you feel important to their care!

A typical day

I love to play with the dogs that I watch! We play fetch and go for long walks to stay active. I play with their toys and spend time getting to know them. Similar to the dogs, I play with the catch that I watch, getting them active and moving! I give lots of pets and snuggles. I always respect pets boundaries and give them space if needed.
