Highlights
Pet care experience
your pet is safe with me!
I have had pets my entire life. I am a die hard animal lover and have many years of experience in caring for all types of animals. I have two dogs of my own. A 10 year old dog of my own, a miniature Aussie named Kane and a toy poodle named Fifi. Kane is a big love bug and gets along with all dogs but can have the tendency to let out a grumpy old man growl but it is all for show. Don't be fooled, he truly loves having a four legged companion to play with. Fifi is a sweet little princess who knows it. She is a sweet yet sensitive little girl who just needs to be on someone’s lap at all moments of the day. She gets along well with other dogs and mostly keeps to herself!

Ratings and reviews
If I could sum up my experience with Karissa in one word, it would be AMAZING! My husband and I knew from the minute we met her that she would provide the best care possible for our energetic, rambunctious 7 month old puppy. Her past experience with dogs was evident, and reflected in her calm and caring demeanor. She gave us regular updates and pictures of our boy while we were away, which gave us tremendous peace of mind. When we came back to pick our puppy up, he was sorry to leave Karissa and her two dogs! Again, an overall amazing experience, and my husband and I intend to request her services again and would highly recommend her!

Dolly was sad to leave! She just looked out the truck window as if she was thinking why am I leaving … Excellent communication and care.

Karissa is the absolute best! Loveliest person, great communication and super loving with our Pippa. Can’t recommend her enough!

Highly recommend! Karissa was wonderful, very flexible and welcomed Yogi into her home.

I would highly recommend Karissa! I could tell my Bentley was in good hands!

Karissa is very caring and will love your dogs like her own for the time she has them. She sends pictures at least once a day so you know they’re doing well. My dog had a great weekend while I was away. Would book again if I need it! Thank you so much!

Schedule
I am currently a student but taking online classes so I am home the majority of the time other than to run the occasional errand. I am active and enjoy going out for hikes when the weather permits but I also enjoy cuddling up on the couch for a low-key type of day. My schedule is very flexible and I am able to board any day of the week morning or evening pickups/dropoffs.
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I have a fenced yard and one friendly old man miniature Australian shepherd who just keeps to himself once he gets his wiggles out. We also have a 1.5 year old toy poodle who loves everyone and everything. I have two kids under the age of 7. one 6 year old and one 2 year old. They have been taught to respect animals and the boundaries animals set for their safety and the safety of the pet. They are like me and love animals.

A typical day
Since I have kids the dogs I watch are always getting constant cuddles and loves. We live on a dead end road and love taking walks up to the top!
