About Karissa

Experience: 10 yrs

Hi! My name is Karissa, and I'm a dedicated pet caregiver with over 10 years of experience working with a wide variety of animals - including dogs, cats, farm animals, and reptiles. As a proud dog mom of six bully breeds, I have a deep understanding of different temperaments, training needs, and care requirements. I have extensive experience with dogs of all breeds, sizes, and energy levels, from playful puppies to senior companions. I'm especially comfortable working with strong-willed or stubborn dogs who require extra patience and attention. Whether your pet needs daily walks, feeding, medication administration, or just some extra love while you're away, I will treat them like family. My goal is to ensure your pets feel safe, happy, and well-cared for in your absence. I look forward to meeting you and your furry (or scaly!) companions! Let's connect and discuss how I can best help you and your pets!
