Animal Lover and Student at SPU!

Pet care experience

I have taken care of my dogs and neighbor's/families' cats and dogs for a while. I've been relied on to stop by people's houses while they are away to check in on their pets and make sure they are having their needs met and get some love!

Karissa did a great job with our two dogs and geriatric cat. She was flexible and stayed later when our original plans went awry.

Karissa did a great job taking care of our two guinea pigs for a week - appreciated the twice-daily visits to our house and easy communication back-and-forth!

A big big thank you to Karissa for being so amazing with my huge Malamute dog. she’s the sweetest and most patient sitter ever. I was running late, but she totally rolled with it and stayed a bit longer to make sure Tanuki was good. Plus, she kept me updated with his pics. Thanks a bunch for taking such great care of him! Tanuki was absolutely delighted to stay with her!

Safety, trust & environment

I do not have a way of hosting pets in my dorm, but in my client's home I make sure to play with the pets often to keep them happy and engaged. I follow all directions for care precisely and make sure to be checking in on the pets and their welfare.

Information Karissa B. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know about your pets general attitudes towards playtime and how lonely they can get. Any visual or verbal cues I can look for to to better understand your dog’s behavior would be greatly appreciated.

A typical day

I love for dogs to be able to get their energy out safely and in different ways every time! This can be by going on a walk, playing with chew toys, giving lots of quick pets and getting them excited, playing bird and squirrel videos for them!
