Highlights
Pet care experience
Animal lover in Ballard 💜
I have over 20 years of experience working with animals both personally and professionally. I worked professionally at the Tulsa Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals from 2005-2008 and became the manager of puppy care. Upon returning to Seattle, I volunteered for PAWS Animal Shelter in Lynnwood, providing foster care for kittens that required bottle feeding, as well as litters too young or too sick to stay in the shelter. My former pets include three rescue cats (one with special needs), and one rescue dog. I currently have a 5 year old American Pit Bull Terrier / American Bulldog that I also rescued from PAWS Animal Shelter about a year ago. We love going for walks and hikes together, and visiting Sniffspots around the Seattle area. I love caring for animals and will treat your animals like I treat my own. I currently reside in Ballard and work from home. My work schedule is flexible which makes last minute walks and drop-in visits easy for me. I have recently reopened my Rover account and hope to get some new clients over the summer months!

Safety, trust & environment
I always offer free meet and greets either around the neighborhood or in your home to make sure that I am a good for for both you and your pet. When I come to your home for drop-in visits, your animal(s) will be my one and only focus. I am highly respectful of privacy and understand that having a new person in your home can feel vulnerable, especially at first.
Ratings and reviews
Thank you very much for taking great care of the fur babies!
Krista was so communicative & great with my animals! She took great care of them & I will definitely be using her again :)
Krista was super attentive and sent detailed updates with photos that we appreciated so much while being away! We would love to book her again in the future.
Thank you so much, Krista! I loved all the pictures and updates after every visit. I will definitely rebook with you next time I’m out of town!
Krista was a fantastic pet sitter - very responsive and went far and beyond. Our kitty loved her and it was so lovely leaving town knowing that our kitty was well taken care of!
I worked with Krista at the SPCA, she was fantastic with the dogs and puppies. She was reliable and always attentive to the needs of the dogs. She has spent much of her time dedicated to caring for animals, her own and animals in need. I will always trust Krista's commitment to the welfare of animals and her ability of care for each one as her own.
