Personal & Professional Experience

Pet care experience

With my experience in the animal field and caring for dogs personally and professionally (as a certified veterinary assistant), I know how to care for your pet. I am compassionate about every encounter I have with an animal & I will always love them as if they were my own.

Absolutely amazing! We needed someone every now and then for our puppy and we also have a three legged pitbull that can be scared of people coming in our home. Karissa did amazing with her and our puppy. She made sure they were taken care of and communicated with us very well. 100% would recommend!

Karissa was amazing! She was extremely sweet and loving to all of our animals! She is also extremely flexible especially when there was a mistake on my part with the booking. She worked around the mistake I made and made sure my pets got the best care! She tired out my very energetic dog and made sure to give him and my cat the attention and snuggles they are used to. I would definitely recommend her and I can’t wait to use her again! It made our weekend away so much better since I didn’t have to worry about my pets at all!

Karissa is an absolute dream when is comes to cat sitters! She is honestly the best. She is extremely professional, kind, caring, and thoughtful. I was nervous to leave my fur baby for the first time but Karissa made me feel comfortable with everything and made sure to send pictures and updates of our baby every day. She really did go above and beyond while we were gone. I plan to use her in the future when we go out of town again. I don’t think I could trust someone as much as I trust Karissa to watch my cat!

Information Karissa P. would like to know about your pet

The most important information to know ahead of time is the overall basic information about your pet. Additional information I’d love to know is their personality, what they enjoy, and any precautions I should know or take!

A typical day

Keeping your dog busy & stimulated is the best way to ensure that they are happy and cared for. I like to base every fun activity off the pet I am caring for and what they love and feel comfortable doing!

Availability

My current availability all depends on my personal pet sitting schedule, as I am currently doing this full-time, until I go back into a vet clinic job. Some seasons are slower where I can fit in new clients easily, while other seasons I get booked up very fast! Nonetheless, I make sure to not overbook myself, so I can make sure each client gets the attention & care they deserve without feeling rushed, overwhelmed, or forgetful! Being intentional and consistent is what I strive for.
