Highlights
Pet care experience
Your cat’s very own companion!
As a kid, I was most used to being surrounded by dogs, but as I grew older, I came to realize the joys of earning a cat's trust. I adore the range of vibrant personality in our feline friends, and understand the boundaries they set before being comfortable with a new human. Relating to their more reserved demeanor, nap-heavy days with bursts of late night energy, it just makes sense that I am 100% a cat-person (though I still have a soft spot for all pets). I have experience administering medication to cats of different ages, as well as everyday experiences of caring for cats based on the activities of my own three (litter box cleaning, very specific petting style preferences, strange toy choices, and all the fun quirks cats have to offer :)

Safety, trust & environment
As your pets know your home best, I will do my upmost job to make sure I don't disrupt their routine. If they're fed at a certain time, I make sure to do just that. I am willing and ready to listen to you and your pet's routine, so they stay comfortable in their environment. Because I have 3 cats, I do not do visits in my house.
Ratings and reviews
Carissa was an absolute lifesaver! After a disappointing experience with another dog sitter while I was away for a month, she stepped in and made a huge difference. She arrived for the last week, and the moment she stepped inside, I felt a wave of relief. Carissa was an excellent communicator, sending me numerous pictures and asking thoughtful questions that showed her genuine care for my dogs. She was incredibly responsible and kind, and I was thrilled to come home to a spotless house, even with a new rescue dog who was still learning house training. I can’t express how grateful I am for Carissa’s help, and I’ll definitely be booking her again in the future.


Very friendly and detail oriented,was so great with my dogs and knew there name send me updates and pics !!!:) Absolutely amazing woman and pet sitter :)
Carissa was amazing with our doggos! She was communicative and sent photos at every check in. Our doggos seemed to love her and just feel comfortable with her coming and going. I would highly recommend her to watch anyone’s pets!
Carissa was great to us & our pups! She communicated clearly & updated us frequently. Our pups warmed up to her immediately. We would recommend her to anyone!


Thank you so much! Carissa is absolutely fantastic and I would recommend her to anyone!

Carissa was great. She kept us updated on Tipsy was doing during our 4day absence. She sent us many photos. Kept the house clean and even extended her house sitting stay because our flights were delayed getting back. I would not hesitate to have Carissa back to take care of our Tipsy.

Schedule
I am currently attending college and trying to earn money for future expenses. ⏰️ With my current work schedule, I typically can provide breaks every 6-8 hours, but would love to further discuss your pet's needs! I am willing to take longer than the weekend jobs, and would love to discuss if my schedule is a good match for your fur babies. I look forward to meeting you and your pets :D
- CatsCarissa can host up to 1 pet per night
- Inform me if your pet eats at a specific time, has any medications, doesn't do well around other pets, has any special needs, or has a high energy level! This helps me plan for how to care for them properly!
