Biggest dog lover in town!
Pet care experience
I’ve been a huge dog person since I was born! I own 4 dog at my house and even a service dog for my partner. I’ve had a litter of frenchies in 2008 when I was 15 and instead of volunteering I took care of puppies all summer. Im home with my roommates dogs on the weekdays where I watch them and take them out for potty breaks. We all have a special bond together and are excited to start off days when I am dog sitting
About Karissa C.
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
I make sure for every dog to have their own space to eat and hang out. I separate the small dogs with the big dog especially for eating times. Puppies that I own eat twice a day depending on the pup and they get multiple times to go to the dog park to get their energy out.
Information Karissa C. would like to know about your pet
Please let me know ahead of time if your dog has special needs or needs daily medication. I had a three legged Frenchie that needed medication day and night. Plus he needed special care and attention. So I have experience just would like to know ahead of time
A typical day
Every dog I watch I stimulate mentally and physically. I take my dogs to a dog park near me so the can socialize and run around. There’s two sides to the dog park so both small dogs and big dogs can go. I always carry a bag of treats with me so after they are done chasing each other I can practice basic commands and even teach “roll over” or “paw”

Availability
Now adays when other roommates in the house have to work I watch the dogs and the cat to make sure to take them outside for potty breaks. During the afternoon when the small dogs eat I go to the park with the big dogs for an hour and a half. Then bring them home to eat and socialize once again. For the big dogs I like to test them on basic commands to mentally stimulate them for the rest of the night so they can sleep throughout the night! The dogs I have now are a shitzu, pittbull/Lab, German Shepard/Rottie, and a cocker spaniel. But I do have a pretty kitty starla.
