Highlights
Pet care experience
Helping fellow travelers with care
As a child, I grew up with having a cat as a pet. I love them so much, but remember begging my parent for a dog for many years. (Currently my boyfriend is allergic to cats so looks like we’re officially dog people) We finally got a family dog when I was 15, a giant sweetheart, St. Bernard named Rocky. I got my first (full responsibility) dog with my high school boyfriend at 17, a big headed, gentle giant Blue Nose Pitbull. And I adopted my soul dog at 19, our stubborn, loving stinky boy, Tyson! We spend the last 15 year together and he went across the rainbow bridge last year. I was so lucky to have my 80 lb boxer pitbull live as much life as he did by my side. As a 34 year old who is pet-less for the 1st time in forever, I’m here to share my love for animals in my spare time with your sweet babies!
Qualifications
Safety, trust & environment
I have a fenced yard shared with a duplex that has no other animals. There are lots of squirrels and bunnies in my area, but otherwise your furry friend will have the whole yard to theirselves! I enjoy spending time with them in the yard as well
Ratings and reviews
It was wonderful working with Carissa again knowing that she always takes great care of my three dogs!
Carissa was fantastic to work with and took great care of my three dogs. Would love to have her care for the dogs again!
Stop your search because this is your girl! I have known Carissa for over ten years and you couldn’t ask for a better friend for your pet. She’s reliable, loving and best of all FUN! You can trust your fur baby will be in great hands and will look forward to their next date with their new favorite friend.
Carissa has watched our dogs multiple times while we’ve been away, and I can’t recommend her highly enough. She takes exceptional care of them, treating them with so much love, attention, and genuine affection. It gives us total peace of mind when we’re not home. What really stands out is how naturally her hospitality background shines through. She’s incredibly attentive, proactive, and thoughtful. Beyond all of that, Carissa is just an amazing person with a huge heart. Anyone would be lucky to have her caring for their pets.
Carissa is one of the most genuine and caring friends I have ever had. She is always on point for planning and taking care of her friends. I have had the pleasure of being her supervisor in the workplace and then developed into a lifelong friendship. Her love for her dog Tyson is one of the closest bonds I have ever seen.
Carissa is one of the most loving and caring person I know, especially towards our furry friends! She had a terrier mix for 15+ years and gave him the best life. Always give him snuggles, treats and love. Carissa has also been a great support for our fur babies, watching them for us when we go out of town. She always makes sure they feel just as loved as when we’re home. I highly recommend Carissa to care for your babies, they will be in great hands!

Schedule
My schedule changes frequently. Weekdays are usually best for my availability for walks. Weekends are optional for over night care, but I will be working so they need to be house or crate trained.
