Boarding • Jul 15, 2026

My partner and I were both immediately calm after dropping Link off at Krista’s for the first time. We even kept saying that was the least worried we have ever been dropping him off anywhere. Krista’s calm confidence is so reassuring, she isn’t afraid of any quirks a dog might have and handles them well. I loved her fun updates including pictures and videos during Link’s stay. That was most relaxed I’ve ever been while away from him (which is not easy to do). She truly cares about your dog and treats them like her own. I hope to use her time and time again in the future!!!

Our dog spent a week with Krista and her two dogs. Krista was responsible, kind and attentive, especially during the heat wave and threatening thunder. She sent daily updates including a photo and communicated with us several times during the week. We missed our pup, but we're happy he was in Krista's competent care.

Krista was a great sitter for our dog, Rosie. She sent us photos, videos, and assurances that all was well for the entire week. We especially appreciated how responsible she was in giving Rosie her daily meds. Also, her nice fenced in yard was just what our lab needed! Krista's TLC helped us feel confident that Rosie was in good hands! Thank you Krista!

Darius really enjoyed her time with Griffin and Meatball! Krista took really good care of Darius for the whole weekend, she sent lots of photos to us, Darius is a shy girl but she looks extremely happy in each and every picture. We are glad that Darius had a great weekend with Griffin, Meatball, and Krista. Highly recommended!!

Doggy Day Care • May 28, 2026

My dog Mac’s stay with Krista was amazing! She was a great communicator, sending constant updates and cute photos and videos throughout the day. Mac loved his time with Griffin and Meat, and got along with them so well! He is a very high energy dog, and as soon as we got home he plopped down on my bed and was ready to call it a night. Would highly recommend.
