Pet care experience
Hi I'm Krysta! :) I've taken care of all kinds of breeds of dogs and cats my entire life. I volunteered at a veterinarian clinic and worked for a pet-sitting business when I was younger, and I'm excited to be self-employed with a remote position, so I can spend my free time with pups and kitties again. I currently have an older big kitty and it's not the right time for me to adopt a new animal, so I love having the opportunity to spend time with all the other pets around me. My partner and I both work from home, so there's always somebody to watch our kitty, and housesitting for extended trips is no problem. I'm well-versed in animal behavior, training, cuddles, and communication and I love getting to know each pet for their own individual quirks and needs. I'm also known for staying calm in any situation and keeping my emotions grounded with new animals that are still learning and practicing. I have a gentle authority that works especially well for rescues, as I've had much practice taking care of and raising rescues.
Reviews
So grateful for Krysta, and I think our dogs are too! She’s great at sending updates and house is clean when we return!
Krysta did an amazing job with our highly energetic 2 year old puppy. Her communication and care allowed me to feel at ease through the whole process.
Once again it was a pleasure having Krysta watch Ayla. They have a great bond, and Krysta ebb took the time to teach Ayla some new tricks!
Always wonderful to have Krysta take care of our dog. She's immediately relaxed and comfortable when Krysta arrives!

As much as I would love to host your pups at my place, I currently have a big, beautiful kitty that is about 11 years old and needs our home to be a sanctuary for him right now. I'm happy to take care of your home as if it were my own while I house-sit, as well as adhere to any routine that your pets follow. Including plenty of time outside if that's their jam :) Any special requests, just let me know!
Information Krysta K. would like to know about your pet
If there's anything in particular I can do to make my stay with your sweet animal better for them, please don't hesitate to let me know!
A typical day
I'm happy to wake up when the doggos are ready to go and spend plenty of time outside- on walks, playing catch at a park, training with treats. Whatever their fav routine is, I'm here for it!

Availability
I'm self-employed as a life purpose coach and because I work remotely, I can be available as much as the pets may need. There's absolutely nothing better than taking a break during the day to love on some fluffy sweethearts! I also tend to gravitate towards working outside, so if the pups like heading to a park or walking some trails, that works great for me too. Any weekdays, weekends, or holidays work well with my schedule.
