PawStay, warm stay when you're away

Pet care experience

Hi, my name is Clarissa. I am a freelance copywriter and editor who works from home. Coming from a dog lover family, I have been taking care of dogs for my entire life. I believe that every dog has their own personality and I always try my best to understand their wants and needs. I am also experienced with dogs that have special needs. I live with my husband and our beagle-basset boy, Darby, in a townhome. And we're always making sure that pets will stay and live happily and comfortably at our home. Our neighborhood is dog-friendly and there are a lot of open areas where dogs can walk or hang out. I offer daycare and overnight stay with flexible timing. I try my best to match your needs.

Clarissa did a fantastic job watching Morgan. Morgan is somewhat shy, and Clarissa worked with her to make her feel comfortable. I got photos and updates each day, so I knew my dog was doing well. Clarissa is very friendly, and it's obvious that she likes dogs and knows how to care for them. Morgan had a great time there!

Clarissa did an amazing job watching Kona! She kept me updated with photos and messages every day. Kona got along very well with Clarissa's dog Darby, and they even shared toys. I would definitely use Clarissa again when I need a dog sitter!

Clarissa was fantastic and treated Nico like her own. The care, attention and love provided to Nico showed immensely. I will certainly use Cleissa’s services again.

Clarissa was amazing with our 13 yo retriever just this past month. Her care and her updates were detailed and helped ease the anxiety that layla was in good hands esp. as layla had just recovered from old dog vertigo a few weeks before our trip. I would use Clarissa in a heartbeat!! Thanks Clarissa.
