Pet care experience
Hi! My names Carissa, I am a 5th year at the University of South Carolina. Im from Pennsylvania! I’ve lived in downtown Eugene, OR ; Miami, FL ; and Georgia for the last 4 years, but currently live in an apartment complex in Columbia! I’ve hosted and have had multiple house visits with other dogs and cats! i’ve watched dogs ranging from a chihuahua to a great pyrenees! I grew up with a golden retriever and 2 cats, and now my family in Pennsylvania has a pitbull blue heeler mix (she is my absolute bestfriend) and we live on a farm. Some of my favorite hobbies include: reading, eating, taking photos, and going on walks. Ive done daily walks for a dachshund while living in Miami, and have hosted a bunch in Oregon, also I had a weekly dog i’d daycare for and other bookings in Georgia! Please send me a message and I will get back very quickly if I can or can’t! I have class three days a week and work another job so I am will not be home all day- everyday! Going outside for walks or runs is my main form of exercise for the dog. If they are super friendly there are dog parks! If your dog is more on the chill and calm side, a one-on-one walk around some parks and the city! And of course always enjoy some sunshine rays on the balcony or hanging in the courtyard!
Reviews
Very great! Our dog can be anxious and nervous around new people. although he was nervous the first time meeting, each time after he was excited to go. Our puppy loves her. She’s great!!
Carissa was great with our rambunctious dog. The house was spotless when we returned. I’d hire her again!
Thank you for watching Maizey. She is happy to be home but she did like here stay with you.
Amazing, all of three of my cats came back silky smooth from all the attention they got.

Information Carissa M. would like to know about your pet
Please let me know if your dog has anything I should know about! I’ve watched dogs with separation anxiety, reactive dogs, and dogs on medication, as well as extremely high energy dogs! A heads up would just be great!!
A typical day
Hanging out with the dog while they acclimate to the new environment is very important to me. Having access to those things makes it very easy to play with the dog without worrying of any unwanted interactions!
