Never Met A Pet I Couldn't Love!

Pet care experience

I am a responsible pet lover who is devastated to have a no-dog policy in my current apartment, which means I’ve got lots of extra love to share with your pets! A win-win for all involved! I have extensive experience pet sitting and walking dogs on this app and through other professional services, plus a lifetime of my pets in my own home. I am comfortable caring for dogs of all temperaments and sizes -- I also have a soft spot for cats and their boundaries. While I will give plenty of sweetness, I am also fully capable of keeping control and enforcing rules with pets when needed. Looking forward to helping you keep your beloved pet happy and healthy!

Was somewhat disappointed. I have an alarm that logs entry and departure... most nights Clarissa did not stay with my fur babbies and some days she was only here for an hour or so! That being said everyone was alive when I got home... just feel bad that my animals were left alone so long!

Clarissa is great with my Roxy. I realize that my girl can be a manic ball of high energy or can turn into a 60-pound sloth who refuses to move after a few steps. Clarissa handles her well and tailors walks according to Roxy's temperament. Clarissa is great at communicating and you will get details of the walk when they are done.

Seeet, communicative, and clean. Our doggie got a lot of love while we were away for the week. It was nice not worrying and feeling comfortable with her in our home.

Clarissa was fantastic with my rowdy Nova and very accommodating. There were never messes when I got home. She even sends me sweet photos of her playing on the beach! She works well with my schedule as I'm all over the place sometimes. :) Thanks Clarissa!

A typical day

I love exploring the neighborhood, playing lots of games early in the day to avoid pent-up energy, and if your dog is travel friendly I aim to take a few trips to the local forest preserves for some super-scented field trips! With cats, I'm sure to provide lots of games and I've been known to build a cat fort when I can.
