Safety, trust & environment

My dogs are spoiled. I play with them as often as I am able to. I have high energy dogs, so they need lots of playtime and attention. As long as they are allowed, I invite dogs to cuddle me on furniture. Belly rubs are a must, as long as the dog is comfortable! Expect any dog (with the permission of the owner) to be loved on, pet, and cuddled with! I will provide the pet or pets with what they are in need of, as if they are my own.

Information Karissa H. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if your pet has any allergies, diets, disabilities, etc. I am flexible and will adjust to anything. Also let me know of any behavioral issues beforehand.

A typical day

I love to provide love and exercise! I will stimulate your pet with brain games and activity, and then reward with numerous pets and owner-approved treats.

Pets

Dogs are family, not pets

Pet care experience

I am not afraid to care for dogs of any size, any breed, any age. The more the merrier! I’m have been around dogs since I was an infant, and I absolutely love caring for them. I currently have two dogs of my own (a purebred Golden Retriever and a Golden Retriever/Irish setter Poodle mix)! I currently live in a household with FOUR dogs, so no amount of dogs scare me.

She provided drop in visits twice a day while we were out of town for a week for our Great Dane and Black Lab. Will book her again for future travel needs.

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
