Please let me know: • Are vaccinations up to date? • Any special care requirements? • Is your dog house-trained? • How do they do with kids, other dogs, or small animals? I treat every dog as if they were my own with patience, attentiveness, and genuine affection. ❗️Message to check availability.

Ratings and reviews
Karissa was great! She provided frequent updates during our dog's stay and followed our care instructions to a T. We would recommend booking with her.
We never worry when Morty is with Karissa, she puts us at ease and sends regular updates throughout the day. Morty was very relaxed when we picked him up!
Karissa was absolutely amazing! She made sure to keep us updated on how much she was eating, how her potty was. Always sent photos and made sure she felt at home while we were overseas :) We have an older dog so we had quite a few accommodations we needed but she took care of them with no issues. I would definitely recommend if you are looking for a dog sitter!
Another great sitting experience with Karissa! Excellent communication and very accommodating. She is always prepared and has anything your pet needs if you ever forget anything at home. Morty is very comfortable with Karissa and her family - he walks right in when we leave him and goes straight to them for scritches!
Karissa was Fantastic with Lexi. She made her feel right at home, paying attention to everything that was needed. Very appreciative of Karissa and her compassion for our pet.
We are so thankful Karissa was able to watch Morty for us again. She was able to provide a safe, clean, and quiet home for our anxious, senior dog Morty that was restful for him during the holidays. She followed all of our instructions for Morty’s dinner, and kept us up to date with messages, photos, and videos which put us at ease. Highly recommend!

Schedule
I’m a freelancer who works from home most of the time. My schedule is flexible to fit yours and your dog needs. Mornings or evenings available.
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
My home has a fully fenced backyard with lots of space to play and an all-you-can-pee lawn for those important outdoor breaks. When I step out for quick errands or groceries, your dog will be safely secured in a fenced area in the living room, but when I’m home, they’ll be free to roam, relax and enjoy plenty of love and attention.
A typical day
Your pup will feel right at home here! I keep their routine as close to yours as possible. In our cozy home, mornings start with breakfast, walkies, and a little backyard playtime. The day is filled with games, gentle company, and TV time together.
