Safety, trust & environment

I have 2 dogs, 3 cats and 2 fish tanks. I balance all of them along with having 2 children as well. To me, caring for pets means they are family and should be included as such. During a regular week my dogs are given a variation of walking, training and mental stimulation games. The cats can be found lounging with us in our past times or playing amongst themselves.

Pet care experience

From showing dogs professionally, to grooming cats and dogs and owning them all my life; I have the knowledge and experience to handle any pet with the care based on their individual needs. I also offer grooming and training, as well as drop in pet sitting where I check in on your pets while you’re gone.

Carissa is so good with my dogs! They are huskies with typical big husky personalities. She was gentle, sweet, and firm with them and has them listening to her so well. She's excellent with dogs, cats, and fish! The ultimate pet whisperer!

Carissa is one of the most patient and attentive people I know when it comes to animals. She genuinely cares about their well-being. Also, she takes the time to understand each dog’s personality and needs. I’ve seen firsthand how much effort she puts into training. She worked through reactivity issues with her German Shepherd and made huge progress through consistency and care. She’s reliable, calm, and very in tune with animals. Which makes a big difference, especially with dogs that need a bit of extra attention. Any pet in her care will be safe, well looked after and treated like her own.

Carissa is an incredibly responsible and caring pet caregiver. She treats every pet like her own and always goes the extra mile to make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved. She’s reliable, communicative, and truly passionate about animals. I would absolutely trust her with my pets anytime and highly recommend her to anyone looking for dependable pet care.
