Pet care experience

All pets are literally the best

I’ve grown up with all different types of pets and I love them all!! My favorite pastime is walking dogs, I find it so therapeutic. I can walk long distances for hours at a time as well as short walks. If ur dog is extra hyper I can go at a pretty brisk pace so they get the most out of every walk. I love doing things with the dogs I pet sit such as going to the dog park (if ur comfortable with that ofc). I’m a great communicator and will keep you updated on how your babies doing and answer any questions you might have. I promise you’ll have nothing to worry about leaving your furry friend in my care:)

Very thankful for Karissa for taking care of my boy Milo for a couple days! She was flexible, communicative, and I know Milo was happy in her care.

Karissa watched our dog for a night and sent so many pictures of him while staying at our house! She kept the house clean and did a great job taking care of him! I will definitely use her again!

Karissa was absolutely fantastic with my dog, Bagel! From the moment she arrived, Bagel took to her right away. Karissa kept me updated throughout the week! When I came home, Bagel was happy, calm, and clearly well-cared-for. I could tell he got plenty of playtime, cuddles, and attention. Karissa went above and beyond, and I felt at ease knowing Bagel was in great hands.

My pup loves Karissa! She has taken care of my dog many times, and my pup is always very happy to see Karissa. She’s so good with my dog and loves animals. She always comes to walk her when she says she’s going to and cleans up after her too. I would definitely recommend her.
