Who let the dogs out?

Pet care experience

I've grown up around dogs my entire life, as I have enjoyed the serotonin they bring with them. Family, friends, & coworkers have always had great things to say about my pet care skillset.

Caryssa house sat for my 13 year old husky for 4 days. She stayed on top of his seizure medication schedule which was a huge concern of mine when leaving him. I even came home to a clean house. Will be hiring her again in the future.

Over the last few years, we have trusted Caryssa with our home and pups, Nero and Raven. She loves and cares for our dogs as if they are her own. She's very responsible and trustworthy.

Safety, trust & environment

Every client & myself included, have a very structural & consistent game plan when it comes to their pet's needs. For example, I like to make sure that my dog has eaten his meals, gets fresh water daily, bathing & grooming at least once a week, & exercise is a must, whether it's walking/hiking or a simple game of fetch. It is also important to reward them with treats, due to good behavior & enlist that they have taken their medications.

Information Caryssa S. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if your dog/cat has any allergies, special treats, medical information or dietary restrictions & habits. Older dogs apply for these traits especially, they have limited things they can work from. I also recommend to all of my clients that having a Pet Care instructions list is a good visual learning technique for me & will send out a written outline to get a better idea of your pet(s) If there are any questions regarding anything, we can discuss further via text or in person.

A typical day

Pets need just as much attention as humans do. With the right love & care, they will be one with you. I always like to make sure that the pet has fresh water, has taken potty breaks, daily exercise, & has a good nutrition plan. I really enjoy taking walks/hikes to help regroup & clear the mind. Our exercise routines are just as important for the pets we care for, taking them out to play or walk is a great way to do that.
