Flexible Schedule for your Pupper

Pet care experience

I grew up with dogs my whole life. Finding myself without the companionship of a dog recently has been heartbreaking and something I miss dearly. So, I have a surplus of love and attention to give to your doggo! I enjoy being outside and working with animals. Walking is my favorite thing to do in the city. I enjoy playing with high energy dogs, especially those that can wear me out! I can play rough and tough or take it easy for elderly dogs. I have experience caring for special needs dogs and those who need more attention. I've raised, trained, walked, and cared for dogs since I was 7 years old. Right now, I am available weekdays from 1pm-9pm. I am also available anytime on the weekends!

Carissa did a really nice job and our dogs were happy, well taken care of and seemed comfortable in their routine with her. We are very pleased.

Carissa stayed at our house and sat for our dog, Mocha, during a long weekend when we were away, and she is fantastic! When she arrived for a meet-and-greet, Mocha loved her instantly. She was very responsive to messages and sent photos and updates every day. When we came back, our house looked great and Mocha was relaxed and happy, as if we had never left :) We will definitely be booking with Carissa again in the future.

Carissa is great! She has a great way with dogs and Stray really enjoyed his walk with her. I also appreciate how accommodating she is and she’s always very quick to respond, which is greatly appreciated. I look forward to using her services again.
