Pawsitively Passionate Dog Sitter! 🐾💗

Pet care experience

Hi there! I'm Charissa, your pet-loving sidekick with a lifelong bond with dogs – I've been surrounded by them since I was 7! From playful puppies to wise old dogs, I've got experience with the whole furry spectrum. Whether it's fetch marathons or gentle cuddle sessions, I know the ropes. Your fur babies are in good hands, and I'm here to make their time away from home a tail-wagging adventure filled with love and care! 🐾

Charissa looked after our little nervous dog Ivy. I have to say from the moment we did the meet and greet with Charissa till this weekend when she looked after little Ivy, Charissa was amazing and very professional with Ivy. She sent us regular updates and pictures reassuring us whilst we were away as we had only had Ivy a couple of weeks. Charissa was simply amazing and such a wonderful caring young lady. My partner and I would have no hesitation in using Charissa again and would recommend using her. Thank you Charissa. Mark, Jo & Ivy

Charissa is such a lovely, caring young woman. She was a delight to have look after my precious little ‘Bear’ Scottie dog. From the moment we had a meet & greet I could tell she was a great playmate for the day for Bear. I would definitely book Charissa again.

Lovely person and the dogs took an instant liking to her. She sent photos and videos to keep us updated. Would recommend.

Charissa is a loyal, trustworthy, witty and loving individual. She handled my little pup Boba very well. Boba is really cheeky so he doesn’t just get along with anyone, but there was something about Charissa that made Boba love her instantly. She obviously has a lot of experience with many dogs and I’m happy to say that I would love to have her take care of my little pup again :)

Information Charissa J. would like to know about your pet

Knowing the ins and outs of your pets upfront is key! From their daily routine and their favourite snacks to any quirky habits, having the scoop make’s their stay awesome. Whether they’re ball-chasers or couch potatoes, its all about tailoring their experiences for maximum fun and comfort. So spill the details, and let’s make sure their time with me is a blast!

A typical day

With me, each day is tailored to your pet's preferences, packed with fun and games. We start with an energising walk and dive into playtime with their favorite toys. Short breaks for potty and water breaks keep us refreshed. Lunchtime means another stroll, and afternoons might include brain-teasing toys or a trip to the park if the weather's nice. Regular feeding times keep their tummies happy, and evenings are for leisurely walks and relaxation. I keep things lively with a mix of activities, stimulating play, and plenty of love for your furry friends.

In my everyday routine, I smoothly blend pet care into my work-from-home life, making sure your furry buddy gets loads of love and attention. Mornings kick off with fun walks and playtime, then it's focused work time with quick breaks for potty breaks and cuddles. At lunch, we sneak in another short walk, and the afternoon is filled with play breaks. Evenings are all about extra play, another walk, and dinner. As night rolls in, we chill out with quiet time and maybe a few more potty breaks before bed. It's a balanced routine packed with love for your cherished pet!
