Reliable, compassionate dog lover

I was the proud owner of English Bulldog and have lived with multiple pitbulls over the last six years. I’ve raised a puppy and cared for dogs with high anxiety. I’m comfortable handling any dog from puppy to elderly. I am a certified Emergency Medical Technician and am comfortable administering medicine and proving first aid, including cpr.

House Sitting • Nov 06, 2021

I could not have chosen a better sitter for our fur babies! Karissa was absolutely wonderful with them—especially Ronin, our Cane Corso. She took great care of them and gave them lots of love and attention. And I love that she was not timid with Ronin—and he respects that she is an alpha. My hubby and I are so relieved to have found such an amazing person that loves our babies just like her own. Thank you Karissa!!!

I am highly impressed with Karissa and her loving approach with my fur baby' KOKO. I have a very hyper Pitbull who also has a restrictive diet. You can tell how much experience this pet sitter has handling animals and it is with genuine care. I have hired Karissa to do single activities with KOKO such as beach runs or walks as well as hired her to stay in my home for days at a time as I travel for work to ensure my pup stays on her routine. Karissa treats my home with just as much care and respect as she does with animals! She is my go to dog/house sitter here on the island and she goes above and beyond every time - I appreciate the videos and photos she sends of them having a great time together!

I have known Karissa for many years her deep love for dogs is something all of her friends know about her. Karissa has been a great dog mom and a perfect companion for any pooch needing some fresh air and happy vibes. Karissa is very active person and so is great for pups who love extra play time. Karissa has even taken her own dog to work with her sometimes to the delight of her coworkers I highly recommend Karissa as a dog walker/doggy caregiver. She is dependable, honest and great with dogs. Good choice!
