Pet care experience

Anthrozoology grad & dog owner

I graduated from the Anthrozoology program at Carroll College in 2022 and I’ve worked at a local doggy daycare since 2021, so my life has revolved around animals for quite a while now! I had cats growing up and I’ve walked, housesat, and helped train dogs of various breeds. In particular, I have also worked with dogs in the Anthrozoology program at Carroll College, training my own foster dog as well as helping other handlers train their dogs. I also have raised and trained my own Border Collie pup who is currently working on acquiring her AKC Trick Dog titles!

Dog Walking • Jul 22, 2026

Krista is the best! She helped me out with walks while I was recovering from surgery. She was very communicative and kept me well informed. She even worked with Suki, helping her settle when they encountered other dogs on their walks. Will definitely book her again and highly recommend!

Krista is a pro in dealing with shy and fearful dogs. My pets were well cared for. Krista kept us up to date on every detail about the visits which were much appreciated. I will definately be booking her services again.

Krista was wonderful! She took us last minute, did a meet and greet as well, and inspired confidence with her knowledge. She gave us advanced notice on her itinerary including times for her drop-in visits. Good pics, communication, and fast to respond. Recommend 👍

House Sitting • Jan 20, 2026

Krista was amazing! She house sat my two dogs and even took care of our bunny. She provided daily updates and photos of our critters. Our house was exactly how we left it, if not cleaner. I will definitely use her in the future!

Krista was amazing with our older Border Collie. She took fantastic care of him! Krista is a top notch dog sitter and put both my dog and I at ease from the very beginning. She is a great communicator. I highly recommend hiring her!

Please let me know if your dog is good with other dogs or not. It’s also important for me to know if they are crate trained and how long they can be left alone. I would also like to know if you have left your pets before, and if so, for how long and if they have displayed any signs of separation anxiety or aggression. Lastly, I would like to know if your dog has any allergies, medications, or special accommodations that need to be taken into consideration.
