Highlights
Pet care experience
Quiet Country Setting
I am a stay at home mom who loves animals. I had many dogs growing up, and as an adult I have trained several puppies to be my own companions. I cared for our elderly chocolate lab and jack russell terrier, so I'm familiar with caring for all ages of pets. Currently our family has a female lab mix. We also have an outdoor cat that we adopted through Humane Fort Wayne after fostering her and her litter of kittens. Our children range in age from 5-14 and share my love for animals. They love to help with our pets and give them attention. We live on around 4 acres. There is plenty of space to go for a sniffing walk around the property or up and down our quiet lane. If you're looking for a quiet getaway for your beloved pet, then our home would be perfect!

Ratings and reviews
Thanks you Karisa. My kitties were well taken care of. Will ask you to kitty sit again!


Flexible and communicates well. Was open to help ease Daisy's anxiety by coming up with ideas for drop off. Daycare report card and photos were greatly appreciated.

Karisa has a beautiful home and welcomed my pup wonderfully. I felt very comfortable leaving my dog with her. Gave her meds and food as scheduled, and provided picture updates and plenty of time with my girl.

Karisa and her family (including family dog) were so welcoming to Daisy. Even continued some of the training that Daisy and I have been working on. Photos and updates kept me updated. Daisy had a wonderful stay and I will use Karisa again as trips come up!

Karisa was an amazing pair for Eddie. We got to visit beforehand for a meet and greet. They have a huge yard which I am sure Eddie saw a ton of. This experience was made so easy and allowed my son and myself to visit family for a well overdue visit. Our minds were at peace and our pup was healthy and full of spirits when we came to pick up. Please book with zero hesitations!!! If they had a 6th star to choose, I would have selected.

Thank you for taking good care of Reesie and for the homemade treats you sent home with us. He was a happy pup!

Schedule
Pet sitting is my sole job. I am home all day other than for short trips out for errands or to pick up kids from school.

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I treat each animal as if they were my own. At our home, dogs are taken out every 2-4 hours for potty breaks/walks. We always keep pets on a leash when outside.

A typical day
My kids and I love to play with the pets we watch! At our home, we are able to take dogs for a walk down our quiet lane or around the property. My kids are used to animals and enjoy playing with them and gently loving on them.
