My dog is my spirit animal.

Pet care experience

I am 25 years old and a full-time grad student studying counseling. I have had dogs my entire life, and my family just wouldn't be complete without our rescue, labrador/boarder collie mix, Griffey. He is our 55-lb. lap-dog who has endless energy, loves to give kisses, and lives up to his name when it comes to athletics--mainly tennis ball chasing. We also enjoy going on walks around our new neighborhood, swimming, and cannot wait to check out the local dog parks. Griffey is kind of a shy guy, but friendly once he gets acquainted. He particularly enjoys the company of female friends, but has some good male buddies as well. We would love to have a playdate with your furriend!! Message me for details :)

Karissa has cared after two lovely dogs during the time I have known her, and has taken top notch care of them. She is definitely an animal person, she seeks out furry friends and makes them feel comfortable and loved in all situations!

Information KARISSA G. would like to know about your pet

I need to know if your dog is friendly with other dogs. We don't have any other animals in our home, but my dog is here full-time. I also need to know any specific diet restrictions (for instance, Griffey only eats grain-free food). I need to know if your dog needs oral medications, and if so, how often to distribute them. Additionally, it would be good to know about any fears or anxieties your dog has, so I can make sure to avoid those activities (i.e. vacuuming).

A typical day

There is a park directly across the street from my home, so I will be walking dogs there at least a couple times a day. If allowed, I will also bring dogs to the dog park, as my own dog loves to go. I am a full-time student, but my classes are 100% online, so I am home all the time.
