Veterinary Tech & Pet Caregiver
Pet care experience
Hello! Thank you for visiting my page. I am Karissa and I have been a Veterinary Technician for 3.5 years at a local animal hospital. I have had different kinds of animals (dogs, cats, ferrets, fish, and more!) in my lifetime. I love animals so much that I decided to work in the veterinary field to learn the health care of animals and to assist doctors with providing medical attention to our patients. Thank you for your time and I hope you consider me to care for your precious fur babies!
Cat care experience
Karissa also cares for cats. Learn about their cat-specific care experience.
Reviews
Karissa was very flexible and was able to medicate our one scaredy cat on short notice!
We trust Karissa implicitly with our "children"! She is calm, competent, and caring. What a gem we've found in her!
Great service again to my cat from Karissa
We have used Karissa in the past and she has always been great. Very responsive and attuned to your needs.
About Karissa K.
Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
For my cats, I clean/scoop the litter boxes daily. They are given fresh food and water daily. They are cared for and showered with love every day. Within the past year, my family and I recently found out one of my cats is a diabetic. We make sure he gets his insulin everyday and monitor him carefully.
Information Karissa K. would like to know about your pet
As a safety precaution, I would appreciate knowing if your pets have behavioral issues and anything I should be aware of and things I should proceed with caution and avoid doing. It is important for me to keep myself safe, and your pet safe! Thank you in advance!
A typical day
We would go out for walks (for the dogs) and explore in appropriate areas. If there are any appropriate toys to play with, they will be used to help entertain them to avoid boredom. The best way is to interact with your pets to keep them active and stimulated!
