Dog whisperer, walker, and lover
Pet care experience
Hi! My name is Karissa, I am 23 and a recent graduate from UCSB. I grew up with a poodle mix named Zeke and am a lover of all animals. Last year, I got a puppy named Mookie, who is also a poodle mix. I have been pet-sitting for friends and neighbors since I was a tween! At this time, my schedule is flexible so just let me know what works for you. I understand that pets are like family and am prepared to treat your pupper as if they were my own! I love to run and go on walks, so be assured that I will expend all excess energy your dog may have! Let me help you and your dog with whatever you need. I look forward to meeting you and your best friend!
Reviews
Karissa was fantastic with Flos and really put us at ease during our trip! It was the first time we've left him for so long and he is a bit timid around new people, but she was patient and attentive as he grew more and more comfortable with her. She is very responsive, sent us videos and photos whenever we texted, and took good care of our house as well. 10/10 would recommend!!
Fabulous job. Will definitely use her again.
Karissa was so amazing with my pup! She was very nice, on time, and communicated excellently. I'll definitely be a repeat customer :)
Our dog took an instant liking to Karissa—unusual for him—and is always very excited to see her. She has always arrived right on time, and it has been a pleasure interacting with her. We highly recommend her!

I live with a fluffy pup named Mookie who is 6 months old. Sadly, I lost my dog, Zeke, last year at the ripe age of 15. Therefore, I have a lot of experience working with dogs at any age range. I understand each family is different and how critical boundaries and structure can be for our animals. Please let me know how you run your household (how many walks per day, allowed on furniture etc) so I can provide the best care possible.

Information Karissa L. would like to know about your pet
I would like to know the age, breed, sex, and any health issues the dog has had. This will help me gauge how much exercise the dog will need.
A typical day
I like to stay active, and be outside while also giving lots of cuddles and attention to the doggos! There is a park close to my house they can run and sniff to their hearts content!

I am in between jobs looking to save money for graduate school so I am eager for work. That being said, communication is key! Let me know what works for you and we can set up a meet and greet!
