Lets give your Pup the perfect week

Pet care experience

My name is Krista and I have extensive experience in handling and training dogs. I have been showing dogs since the age of 14 (I am now 24), and have gone to more obedience/puppy/agility/showmanship/herding classes than I can count. I have two dogs of my own, both are Champions with their CD's and Agility, stock and rally titles. I specialized in showing larger breed dogs (But have shown and trained many small breeds as well), due to my athleticism and ability to move them around the ring. I am extremely active, taking daily runs and/or walks. I would love to bring your dog with me! I am a collegiate student-athlete, and now that both of my dogs are finished I am out of projects until further notice. I absolutely love being around these incredible animals and would love to help you create an amazing environment for yours. My family and I take pride in the care of our animals and have done extensive research into the heath and care of our pets including a holistic diet and chemical-free flea treatment. I have been in just about every situation you can imagine with dogs, and am confident in my ability to asses and react in the best possible way. I have experience in everything from dog sitting, to showing, to training client's pets. Your dog could not be in better hands! As I stated earlier I am a college student and I take mostly online classes. This is my main form of employment, and therefore my schedule is very open! I will be able to spend lots of time making sure your pup is taken care of. I know you take great care in deciding who should be allowed to care for your pet, thanks for considering me! Why I love dog sitting I've been a dog lover since I was five years old and decided I had to have one. Of course my parents made me wait, leading me to get my first dog at age 12. Two years later I found myself in 4-H learning to train my first Australian Shepherd. Five years later I would be competing in my first AKC nationals. After that I earned my credit. I found myself training for breeders, showing for clients, and working with dogs constantly in my pare time. The opportunity to work with them as a career greatly excites me.

Krista babysat our dog, Leon, while we were out of the country for about a week and a half. She went above and beyond by going to the lake, long walks and making sure he was a happy dog. She updated us with pics and updates. We would recommend her to anyone for their pup to feel like they are home away from home. Thanks again Krista!

Krista stayed in our home 4 nights to take care of our indoor cats and multiple outdoor barn cats. When we returned, the cats were happy, plants were healthy, and the house was clean. She is very pleasant and easy to work with. We will definitely call on her again for help.

Krista is amazing! I feel that Apollo was loved, pampered and well taken care of. She sent pictures and let me know how my dog was doing while I was away. She communicates with you very well. I will definitely use her again and will highly recommend her to my friends.

Krista has been a great help with my new puppy Bear. I work 12 hour shifts 3 days a week and she comes in twice a day to spend time with him. She is great at listening to directions and Bear really enjoys spending time with her. She is polite in my house and does not disturb anything in fact I can barely tell anyone has been there when I get home. She send constant updates along with pictures to me while I am at work which is a big relief. I would recommend anyone who is looking for help to Krista and I will continue to book her in the future.
