About Carissa

Experience: 4 yrs

Hi there! My name is Carissa! I have over 5 years of experience caring for animals of all kinds, and have a few furry friends of my own! From energetic puppies to senior pets who need a little extra TLC, I absolutely love spending time with furry friends and making sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while you're away. I'm certified in CPR, first aid, and medication administration, so I'm comfortable handling pets with special medical needs or giving daily medications if needed. I also have extensive experience caring for pets with different personalities and behaviors, including those who may need a little extra patience and understanding. Whether it's going for long walks, playing outside, or just giving plenty of cuddles and attention, I truly enjoy keeping pets active, engaged, and comforted. I'm also dependable, trustworthy, and happy to help with routines that make your pets feel at home. Looking forward to meeting you and your pets!
