Pet care experience

I'm your dog's new best friend!

Hi there! My name is Karissa and I can't wait to become your dog's new best friend! I have ample experience with dogs of all breeds and sizes. I am easily able to accommodate for various energy levels ranging from puppyhood to silver seniors and all ages in between! You can rest assured that your dogs will be living the good life if you decide to board with me. I am located near the prarie path for those long, relaxing strolls. I also have a fenced in backyard for added playtime! Want to keep them feeling secure in their own space? I'd be happy to stop in and spend some time with your dog in the comfort of their own home! My schedule is flexible, so don't hesitate to let me know what you need for your furry friend!

Just have one word "Awesome". Karissa is the best and always keeps us updated with day to day activities/pics/vids etc. We have an 8week old puppy that has been taken care of by her while we work and my wife and I absolutely love the care she is receiving. Keeps our Pup entertained and she is tired when we pick her up. Definitely 10/10 daycare service. Go Team Karissa! ❤️👏👍
