Pet care experience
Personal Experience includes owning 3 full-bred Labradors as family dogs (each weighing 110lbs), and my own pitbull mix (weighing 55lbs). Walking only 2 at a time, controlling the dogs was no issue for me. Bathing, playing, and teaching my own four-legged pups was as enjoyable for me as it was for them. In raising my own puppy (who is now 1 year old), I have gone through the whole spectrum, from potty training to maintaining a steady schedule, as well as professional training with her once she was of age. Aside from taking care of my own pets, I have taken care of multiple family members' pets while they are on vacation, work leave, etc … and this is what has led me to Rover. Patience is an essential key to have when dealing with animals as we do not speak their language, however, I can proudly say that is one of my best qualities as your potential dog sitter and caretaker. I am currently a full-time college student pursuing a degree in nursing at my local community college. I am very busy in the normal fall semester (August to December) and spring semester (January to May). However, in the summer I take 1 class, so I have a lot of free time these coming summer months to spend with your fur babies and ensure all involved are happy! I always carry an extra leash and treats with me for dog walking if needed! (Treats approved by owners beforehand) If doing drop-in visits, I can easily crate your dog if desired when no one is home, and pick up any mess created by your fur babies if necessary!
Reviews
Clarissa, has taken care of our dogs many times , always very good attitude,on time and very responsible . Dogs ask for her quite often.....
Clarissa is a true dog lover and takes amazing care of my two dogs. Clarissa has been taking care of our four-year-old dog since she was brought home, and now helps with our puppy. She texts me pictures of the dogs while I'm away, has picked up treats and medicine for them, walks them, and has even helped me regulate the puppy's sleep schedule. I never worry about my home or my dogs when I'm away because I know I can depend on Clarissa.
Clarissa is a not only a great person herself, but she is even greater to trust with your fur babies. She is constantly going the extra mile for our dogs, and never hesitates to ask questions if unsure of something. Our dog is spoiled with Clarissa around!
Clarissa loves animals, and it definitely shows! She has watched my dog overnight on weekends and during the week. My dog loves the attention she gets from Clarissa. I absolutely love that Clarissa walks my dog, as well as plays fetch for long periods of time! Clarissa is not only polite and knowledgeable about all animals, she genuinely enjoys being around pets. I was also surprised that I returned to a home that was cleaner than when I left!
About Clarissa G.
Skills
Information Clarissa G. would like to know about your pet
Though I have no breed preferences, I would like to know background information of the dog. Things like how they usually handle outsiders as far as possible history of aggressiveness, special treats/tricks, or any specific rules/tips in caring for your dog!
A typical day
Possible walks would be to any local dog park! My favorite park is McAllister dog park, as well as their hiking trails that are dog friendly! Fun activities can include playing games such as fetch or frisbee, running, and trips to Starbucks for a special puppuccino!
