Safety, trust & environment

I understand that keeping our pets safe and happy is of the highest priority, and how I will take care of your pets will reflect that. It is always important to make sure your pups are going on walks fit for their lifestyle/needs and that every cat is getting the stimulation they need while you are away.

Information karissa b. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if your dog has any special needs I need to care for ahead of time so I can make sure I’m prepared for anything and everything they might need. I have experience giving pets medicine, pills or injections, as well as working with young pups all the way up to older pets who are losing their sight and hearing.

A typical day

I think that mental and physical stimulation are some of the most important things to prioritize with your pets. I love games, walking around the neighborhood to make sure they smell everything they can, and getting in as many cuddles as they want.

Pet care experience

Hello! My name is Karissa and I'm 25. I've taken care of, fostered, and owned many cats and dogs throughout all life stages. As a child, I always had animals in the house to take care of, and I've been dog/cat sitting since I was 16. I am familiar with kittens and puppies, but also with elderly dogs/cats as well as dogs/cats with various medical conditions that may need different kinds of medicine administration or lifestyle adjustments.

Karissa took very good care of our dogs while we were away. Our dogs are like our kids and Karissa went above and beyond to ensure they were comfortable and given proper care. Highly recommend her to take care of your loved ones.

Karissa is a very loving and caring dog sitter. She loves animals and protects them. She plays with them and loves on them and worries about them when she’s away. She very responsible and makes sure she does everything asked to and more. I would highly recommend her.

Karissa is amazing! She loved my little fur baby like her own and gave them so much care and attention. She’s kind, responsible, and truly has a heart for animals. She also has the two cutest cats, so she’s no stranger to keeping pets happy and healthy. I completely trust her and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a loving and reliable pet caregiver.
