About Carissa O.
Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
Safety is always my first priority, closely followed with fun and affection! I am very communicative and I am happy to be flexible in order to meet your pet’s individual needs.
Information Carissa O. would like to know about your pet
Prior to walking your dog or caring for your cat, I’d like to understand their temperament, typical behavior and if they are ok with other animals and children. Would prefer leash-trained dogs.
A typical day
Walks all over the neighborhood, getting all the sniffs in. If wanted, I will happily accommodate for a puppy play date, including fetch in my yard, along with zoomies with our friendly labs. (Only upon request).

Pet care experience
I’ve been a pet owner my whole life and a pet sitter since I was 10 years old and have loved every minute of it! I love dogs, big and small, old and young. I also love to hang with cats and other critters - they’re all so fun! I’m reliable, punctual and ever-so-loving of your precious pet. My dog, Goose is an 9 year old fox red Labrador retriever and loves to share his space with critters of all kinds. We recently added another lab puppy to our home, Marla Pooch. She’s happy and rambunctious and very similar to Goose in her big-heartedness. I also have two young boys who love to help love on animals (gently). If you want someone you can trust to take care of your fur baby like they’re her own, book me! I will make sure your baby is happy, healthy and has fun! We have a large fenced in yard for zoomies and fetch and love to walk all over the neighborhood to explore and sniff! I am comfortable with training, giving medication and providing consistency for your pet. Happy to take your pet on walks and/or play dates or to do a puppy or cat visit as needed.
Reviews
I cannot recommend Carissa highly enough! After a terrible, last-minute debacle with a different sitter, we were incredibly stressed about leaving our dog, Walle. Carissa stepped in and completely saved the day. She followed our instructions perfectly, was wonderfully communicative, and showed such genuine kindness. It gave us immense peace of mind to know she was in our home providing over-the-top care while we were away. If you are looking for someone who is dependable, professional, and truly cares about the animals they look after, Carissa is absolutely the person you want.
Carissa was amazing at helping us in a pinch with walks and care for Sucia. She took great care of our puppy and helped get her wiggles out. Carissa sent lots of great photos and updates and also communicated very clearly. Everything went well and we had a happy, tired pup! We will definitely work with her again!
Carissa was great with our 4.5 month old puppy! She worked with us to help with our last minute request and took great care of Sucia! We will definitely book again!
Carissa did an excellent job with our dog, George. She gave him a proper walk on relatively short notice, gave timely updates, and treated him well! Definitely recommend Carissa to anyone in need of a dog walker!
