Highlights
Pet care experience
Experienced animal caretaker🐾
Quality pet care is my top priority! While you're away I want you to feel secure and confident that your pet is in good hands. I am well versed in dog and cat behavior, as well as basic small animal care! My favorite thing about Rover is meeting fellow animal lovers and getting to know their pets. I especially love working with rescues and shyer dogs. Chihuhuas are my personal favorite, but I am comfortable handling most sizes and temperament!

Safety, trust & environment
For every booking, I like to meet with you and your pets ahead of time. I want to be sure everyone feels safe and comfortable with me entering the home while you're away. This also gives you an opportunity to show me around and tell me all about your pets and their quirks!
Ratings and reviews
Karissa is great! Outstanding communication, attentiveness, and asks all the right questions. We are really lucky to have her expertise to help care for our fur babies! Thanks again!
Karissa does an amazing job with my dog, I know she willI follow my instructions, and I have confidence in her ability to handle my challenging pup! I'm happy to know that my dog is in good hands with her. I love the pictures and thorough update she shared as well.
This was our first time being away from our cats for more than just a weekend, so I initially had a lot of anxiety being so far away from them for so long. But my stress evaporated after Karissa checked in and gave us updates on them. She does a wonderful job of describing their behaviors which made us chuckle a couple times "Yep that does sound like our cat!" And also takes wonderful pictures as well! She made it feel like they weren't quite so far away! We will definitely book Karissa again in the future!
Karissa has walked our dog many times. Caleb our pup is comfortable with her and we are too. Karissa has a lot of experience and we highly recommend her.
Karissa is an amazing cat sitter for our two senior cats! We highly recommend her for all your pet sitting needs!
HIGHLY RECOMMEND & wish I had done this sooner! This was my very 1st experience having a pet sitter. I’m not very trusting when it comes to handing care of my my loved ones & my home over to someone else, even for a brief time. However …. Karissa!!!!! You are my heroine!!! I can’t thank you enough and am elated that I have found you to save the day when needed! Words can’t express how grateful I am that you took the time for a meet & greet with my pet family & I before our 1st scheduled booking! It truly eased my worries and got everyone acquainted. Even though I was still a bit nervous for the 1st drop-in while I was away for work, you empathized with my situation and kept me updated during it letting me know everything was going great. It’s like you could read my mind from miles away! Thank you so much for being so calm and professional with my boys (I know they can be a handful). I love how you took them potty separately and the way you eased Rajah into settling down, after he was showing signs of unease. I think you may be a dog whisperer! You did perfectly! I can’t wait to schedule our next drop-in! I’ve already recommended you to all my friends! P.S. It was extremely refreshing to come home to locked doors, closed gates and everything still tidy and in its place (especially the boys - they looked so happy). Compared to when I’ve had my kids drop in to help …. let’s just say it’s night and day! Thank you with all my heart! We have found our forever friend and sitter! P.S.S. The pics you took of them during your visit are the best! Thanks again! See ya next time!

Schedule
I have a part time job in the early morning and I'm looking to fill my afternoons with a few more dog walks or kitty visits! Most of my availability is after 11am, but I am able to accomodate breakfast visits as needed.
