ABOUT
My name is Karisa, I started my pet services off on Rover, after growing up doing them for family. I quickly decided I wanted to run my own business and my wife helped me make it happen. I have vet experience and can administer medication, including oral and injection. We foster for a few rescues in Missouri so we have a lot of dog and cat experience outside of pet sitting. We also have experience with dogs and cats of different ages, from newborns to seniors. We have experience with other animals too. Like horses, pigs, cows, ferrets, rats, lizards, birds, etc. I also worked as a dog groomer, so I have experience with bathing and grooming!
I know pet First Aid and CPR. We are extremely familiar with dogs that have anxiety, aggression, and reactivity. If you have a dog that fits into those categories and needs walking or sitting, we are more than happy to help! We can usually work with any schedule needed.
We will always make your pet's safety a priority when they are in our care. Any instructions given will be carefully read and followed. Pictures can be sent, updates given, and lots of pets of course. Treats too if given permission first!
Please let us know if your dog has any special needs, medical conditions, or behavioral things that we should know about beforehand. Or if you feel there is anything else we would need to know!
Sometimes bookings for drop-ins get pretty full and we get requests for the same times. Bookings are completed in an assigned time frame unless your pet has needs that require specific visit times. If they are NOT flexible, that is absolutely okay, just let us know!
My wife, Emily, helps me at the drop-ins, walks, and with grooming if I need an extra hand. She is so supportive and enjoys being around the animals just as much as I do. She grew up with dogs in her home, and is very familiar with the different needs of dogs with different temperaments. She has assisted in training my service dog, and is great at it! She’s truly amazing with animals.
