Highlights
Pet care experience
Experienced with all Animals
Hi, I'm Carissa! I've owned and cared for cats, birds, snakes, horses, guinea pigs, and other small animals, plus I have experience caring for and training dogs. Whatever pet you have, I'm comfortable and confident meeting their unique needs. I offer house sitting, drop-in visits, and dog walks. As a certified personal trainer with an active lifestyle, your dog will get real exercise and engagement not just a quick potty break. Caring for animals genuinely brings me joy, and when you book with me, your pet gets treated like family.
Cat care experience
Carissa also cares for cats. Learn about their cat-specific care experience.
Qualifications
Safety, trust & environment
Since all of my services take place in the client's home, my top priority is making sure pets feel safe and comfortable in their own environment. For dog walking, I follow any feeding, exercise, and leash routines the owner has established, and always keep dogs secure and supervised. For drop-in visits and pet sitting, I stick to the pet's normal schedule as closely as possible, feeding times, medications, play, and any specific preferences the owner shares. With house sitting, I'm there in the mornings/after work so dogs and cats never feel alone or anxious, and I treat the home with the same care I'd give my own. I always keep owners updated with photos and check-ins, and I reach out right away if anything comes up.
