Dogs are people too - WOOF!

Pet care experience

Pets have been part of my family all my life. I've always cared for my extended families dogs when they are out of town. My dogs are my fur babies.

Charissa was wonderful! She communicated with us while we were out of town, and our pup had a blast! Her two dogs are very friendly, and our Jax has the best time. He came home tired from all of the attention he got, and clearly well loved.

Charissa cared for my Puff this past weekend and was wonderful. Our meet and greet provided time for each of us to ask questions and finalize plans. Her dogs are really sweet and immediately took mine in as one of the pack. Her yard is huge and he loved that but he also got snuggle time with Charissa and her family. Charissa was flexible when scheduling drop off and pick up which helped me a lot. I’ll definitely use her again and recommend her to all fur baby parents.

Charissa did a great job with our puppy. He can be a bit crazy at times. I think our dog loved having a playmate in Otis too!

Charissa has watched my dogs for years. She has been around dogs all of her life. She is responsible and takes great care of my dogs. I would strongly recommend using her for your dog care needs.

Information Charissa P. would like to know about your pet

I enjoy working with all breeds of dogs! I would like to know where your dog generally sleeps at night, does your dog have any separation anxiety, how does your dog act on walks when approaching other dogs? Any other things that you think I should know, please tell me:-)

A typical day

We will go on walks if that if part of your dogs normal routine. My dogs like to chase balls, play tug and get belly rubs. My hope is that your dogs will join in with these activities!
