About Karissa A.
Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
Animals are the principals of our world. They teach us to live our lives! There is no leash tugging from me, consistent phone use, leave poop on the ground going on here. My walks and check ins are safe, reliable and fun with all animals.
Home
Information Karissa A. would like to know about your pet
I trust you would let me know important details regarding your cat and/or dog, so no worries there! Communication is key to understanding each other.
A typical day
Long walks, mental stimulation, dog play dates with Fabian when consent is given. If there is a park near by, that would be fun to do together! Neighborhood walks are nice too.

Pet care experience
Hi, I’m Karissa — a lifelong animal lover with a calm, reliable presence and a genuine passion for helping pets feel safe, understood, and cared for. I know how important it is to find someone you can trust with your furry family member, and I take that responsibility seriously. Whether your pet needs structure, gentle reassurance, or just a fun companion for the day, I show up with patience, consistency, and a lot of heart. My goal is simple: to give your pet the same level of comfort and security they feel at home, and to give you total peace of mind while you’re away!
Reviews
Karissa was absolutely amazing and took great care of my pups especially on such short notice. One of my dogs is a little shy and warmed right up to her. She’s a great communicator and I would recommend her to anyone looking for a pet sitter!

Karissa did a great job checking in on our cat while we were away. I loved the photos and videos she sent via the app. Thank you, Karissa!
Karissa was available short notice to look after my pups when I was in a bind. She went above and beyond for them! She send photos and timely updates as well as ensured they got some exercise. I would definitely recommend and have her stop by again!
