Large fenced yard, two-sitter team

Pet care experience

I live in a big house (see photos) with plenty of rooms for separating dogs if needed. I have a medium-sized fenced backyard (see photos). I work part-time at a cafe, but my boyfriend PJ and I work as a team to make sure your dog and our dog get the full attention they need throughout the day. Growing up the daughter of a veterinarian, I have been caring for dogs and other animals from a young age. My dad recruited my sister and I to help walk the dogs that were boarding at the clinic. I understand that each dog has unique needs and am careful to follow dietary and other care instructions. We always had dogs and a variety of other animals at home throughout my childhood, and I now live with my boyfriend's dog, Alice, a brilliant 9-year-old pit bull. Alice is beloved by the entire community for her good behavior and winning personality. People will walk up to her in our local coffee shop and call her by name, even if they don't know our names (or we theirs!). Alice has inspired me to get involved with other dogs. Each dog has a unique personality, and I am able/willing to accommodate each one, whether that means giving them their own space in the house or bringing them in to socialize with other dogs.

Kallista and Pete were great caretakers for our Spike while we were on a work trip. And they were very flexible with our pickup and drop off times. Their dog, Alice, is also so cool and they got along great!

Kallista and PJ were great. Our 2 dogs are opposites and they took it in stride. Such relief.

Kallista was great! Our regular dog sitter moved out of town and I have really bad anxiety about leaving my dogs with new people and Kallista was so wonderful! My pups came back tired and happy, they almost seemed like that didn’t want to leave. I will definitely be using her in the future.

Kallista is an ideal dog caretaker! She's not only reliable & responsible but will shower your dog with love. She has a gift of tuning into the emotions of dogs (and cats), talking to them & treating them like any other member of the family. She is compassionate & will make your dog feel "at home" whether during a long boarding or a quick walk. She is my top choice for sitting my pets.
