About Karissa
Experience: 5 yrs
Hello! My name is Karissa, and I am an experienced pet sitter, dog walker, and animal trainer with a lifelong passion for animals. With over five years of experience, I offer compassionate, reliable, and personalized care tailored to meet the unique needs of each pet. I hold a Bachelor's degree in Psychology from California State University Channel Islands, which has given me a strong foundation in understanding behavior and communication. I apply this knowledge when working with animals, using patience, consistency, and positive reinforcement to build trust and promote good behavior. I understand that every pet has its own personality, preferences, and routine. Whether your animal needs calm companionship, active walks, structured training, or specialized care, I am here to help. I am committed to keeping your pet safe, happy, and healthy in your absence. Your pet's well-being is my top priority, and I look forward to providing the attentive, loving care they deserve.
Most recent review
Karissa has been an exceptional dog trainer and pet sitter for my sweet dog Lola from when she was just a puppy up until now. From basic training, help with walking on a leash, to providing check ins and overnight stays, I cannot recommend her enough. She is trustworthy, reliable, and someone I can always count on. Lola absolutely loves her and gets beyond excited when she sees her! Karissa also always provides updates and photos which help make you feel connected when you’re away. As far as training, Karissa is extremely professional and has taught my Lola everything she knows. I have used Karissa more times than I can count and I cannot recommend Karissa enough!
