We’re a Small Family of Dog Lovers!

Pet care experience

I’ve had pets from hamsters, cats to dogs and even fish. I currently do dog walking and sitting and decided to come through Rover to make it official! I’m an animal lover and enjoy the walks and cuddles so, what better way to spend my time than loving on animals and have it as a side job?! I allow your animals to free range my home 🏠 (aside from bedrooms) while I am home. If I need to go run an errand, they are usually crated or ride with me if my destination is pet friendly I take my sitter dogs to the dog park nearby and walk suburban neighborhood I live within. I’m fairly laid back and have lots of help with the love and cuddles from my 7year old.

Carissa did a terrific job taking care of Tsunami! Especially since she is still learning how to dog. Lol very patient, kind, and understanding. Would definitely book again. ☺️

Carissa always does a great job with Tucker, would recommend to anyone! She’s always our first choice for dog sitting. Thanks!

Carissa was wonderful! She spent two nights with my dog and cat, and she kept me well informed with plenty of pictures and updates. She did everything she promised and my house was left spotless! It was such a relief not having to worry about my animals. This was my first time on Rover and I’ll definitely use Rover again and Carissa again!
