Highlights
Pet care experience
Pills, Injections, Feathers, Scales
Pet sitting anywhere between Beau Rivage and Fort Fisher. I've only been on Rover since 2022, but I started dog sitting in high school and have continued pet sitting ever since. I joined Rover because I moved here from a different state so I needed to build clientel from scratch. I've worked with dogs, cats, fish, snakes, lizards, turtles, bunnies, and birds. I am happy to work with any pet, but I have a special passion for babysitting pets with health issues (because it has been hard for me to find an experienced sitter for my own). I have experience working with senior pets, blind and deaf dogs, diabetic dogs, dogs who experience tremors, and more. I've worked with cats with kidney disease and hyperthyroidism. I have regularly given eye drops, oral pills, insulin injections, lactated ringers subcutaneous injections, and transdermal creams as needed. Allow me to offer you and your pets a worry-free and enjoyable experience while you travel.

Safety, trust & environment
I am vaccinated for Covid and will take care to limit germ exposure. I always leave my client's home as clean as I find it and do my best to be as unintrusive as possible. I will care for your pets as if they were my own. While walking pets, I am always vigilant to ensure that they are safe from enviro. conditions, vehicles, trash, and other pets and people that may be on our route. Also, I am familiar with pet CPR, but have fortunately never had to perform it.

Karissa did a fantastic job caring for our cats! When we got back, they acted like we had never left! Highly recommend!
Karissa did a great job with my kitties. I could tell from the pictures that they were happy and relaxed. And she even fed my fish, which was an afterthought on my part. Will definitely use her again!
