<3 being your favorite dog-auntie!
Pet care experience
🐾EXPERIENCE My friends would describe me as playful, meticulous, caring, and outgoing. I grew up loving and looking after dogs, chickens, guinea pigs, and birds. I take pride in maintaining your home and animals - additionally, I have experience with puppy training (crate and potty training), medication administration, and basics in grooming. I would care for your pet as I would my own and always strive to leave your pet and home in the best condition during my stay.
Reviews
We always love when Carissa watches the girls. She is exceptional with communication. Our favorite sitter!
My dog screams with excitement when he sees Carissa. If she was not good at her job I promise my dogs would let me know in some way. But they both love her.
Carissa was so great with our boys again! They came home happy and tired from all their walks and play time. We’ll be in touch again in the future!
Carissa was so great with our boys! They clearly had too much fun and are fully tuckered out after a long weekend. We’ll definitely be reaching out again in the future ?

Safety, trust & environment
🐾ABOUT ME I’m currently a nursing student and have intermittent free blocks throughout my day - perfect for walks, playtime, checkins, and boarding. Studying from home allows me to take multiple breaks per day outside and bringing your pet along for outdoor time is just a plus! Transparency is important for me and so far I haven't had a job that’s outside my scope of care. If any conflicts were to arise, I would be happy to communicate with you so your dog is most comfortable, safe, and well taken care of.

*INSIDER TIPS* Your answers will not deter me from accepting your pet - it's in good faith to be made aware before booking to ensure your pets safety. > Are there any special needs/requirements for your animal? > Do they have allergies? > How do they handle with other animals at present? > Do they have triggers? > Have they ever bit another pet/human?
A typical day
ACTIVITY I leave the activities up to the owner however you can expect frequent outside time and lots of love. I enjoy spending time outdoors on walks/runs and regularly enjoy the landscape my community has to offer. Whether is at a park or a stroll through the gardens in my community, proper sniffing time does wonders! I live in a dog friendly community and my apartment accommodates two separate outdoor-fenced dog play areas (large vs small dogs), large grassy areas for fetch, and a mile loop for plenty of sniffing and exploring.

Availability
🐾SCHEDULE In terms of services - I'm an open book for your pets needs/requirements. I am a firm believer in being your pets advocate while we're out and about (eg establishing boundaries from other animals that are eager to jump on or aggressively play with your animal). Please let me know you have any requests for your pets routine (bathing, nail trims, ear cleaning, etc).
