Reliable & Experienced Dog Lover

Pet care experience

Hi! I have grown up with dogs and cats my entire life. Throughout the years, I have housesat, walked, boarded many dogs. I currently am the mom of 2 Golden Irish pups who love to play with other dogs! Since I have been around dogs my entire life, I have really educated myself on ensuring my dogs are safe and healthy! I am comfortable walking, feeding, bathing, playing with all dogs no matter the size! I do work full time from home. However, I have a very flexible schedule. I work until 3PM M-F. I am able to leave work for potty breaks / take dogs outside, etc. The weekends are free (unless something comes up - which I will give plenty of notice). Recently moved to San Marcos from Salt Lake City. We have a large backyard that is fenced in! Please feel free to ask any questions!

Karissa took great care of my pups for the day, they seemed to be very loved and taken cared of when I picked them up. Highly recommend!

They did such an amazing job with my dog! When I got him back home he was so calm and seemed like it had a great time

Schnitzel had a great time at Karissa's house and with her two pups! She was patient with needing to adjust our drop off time. Would definitely have her watch our little friend again! ??
