Animal lover through & through

Pet care experience

I have taken care of dogs and cats since I can remember. I volunteered at at a local animal shelter for numerous years and I’ve also fostered dogs in the past. I grew up raising small dogs and cats all the way up to extra large animals! I’m extremely active and love being outside so walks/runs in the heat or cold won’t bother me and if your dog is more of a cuddle bug I can sit and give them all the attention they need!

Nerissa was very sweet with our dogs. It was our first time having someone we didn't know stay in our house to watch them. Nerissa took great care of them and kept us updated with pictures. Nerissa left the house as tidy as we left it. We are so happy to have found her so that we could take a vacation without worry. She even brought in our mail and took the garbage out.

If you’re considering Nerissa to watch your beloved pets, do it! Nerissa is prompt, responsive, communicative, resourceful, patient, understanding, flexible, responsible and many other positive things that you’d want in a sitter. My mind was at ease knowing Nerissa was there with them (that’s saying a lot because I’m ’one of those’ dog moms). The sprinkles on top of the icing, Nerissa tidied up after she left, our place looked even better than before she arrived! Nerissa - thank you for everything! We can’t wait to see you (again) in 2024!

Nerissa was awesome! She took care of my dogs and went above and beyond what was expected. I'm grateful to have found her and I will continue to use her as my dog sitter!

Nerissa took wonderful care of my 2 dogs and cat! And the house was in perfect order when we returned. Will definitely book her in the future too. She’s my new go-to pet sitter!

Safety, trust & environment

I live in a spacious apartment that has numerous dog parks available that are just steps away from my front door! They allow a fenced in option for the dogs to run around and play as well as a very safe environment for a stroll down the sidewalk.
