Pet care experience

Say hi to your dog for me!

Hi! I'm Krista and I genuinely love spending time with dogs and have lots of experience taking care of them. I recently said goodbye to my sweet and quirky 12‑year‑old German Shepherd. Caring for her throughout the years has given me experience with all the different stages from energetic pups to the oldies with mobility challenges and slower routines. My shepherd struggled with anxiety around other dogs, so I’m very familiar with reading body language, creating safe distance, and keeping walks calm and controlled. Throughout the years, I have cared for and spent ample time with doggos belonging to friends and family members and look forward to the opportunity to give others peace of mind when they need to leave their loved ones. Lots of walks, pets, play time and of course, photos/videos for owners!

Krista is AMAZING. She is a GREAT communicator and a do whisperer. Our George absolutely loves her. This was George's second visit with Krista and when George spotted her at drop off he got so excited to see her! It is such a delight to be able to go out of town and know that your favorite furry family member is also having a great time and not stressed or worried. Thank you so much, Krista!!!

Krista was wonderful with Paris! She was very attentive and sent lots of photos throughout her stay - I would feel comfortable leaving my pets with her again in a heartbeat!

Krista was a great caretaker for Hugo! She was very communicative and proactive. She arranged a pre-stay meet and greet, sent thorough daily updates, and was flexible with pick-up and drop-off times to accommodate travel changes. Hugo had a great time, and so did we on our vacation, knowing that he was in great care!

Krista and Kira are WONDERFUL! Clearly great dog lovers and were so sweet with our senior tripod. He was clearly so happy and relaxed with them and that made being away stress free! Thank you SO MUCH!

Krista took excellent care of my dog and provided 2x daily updates with photos. I felt so comfortable having Pippin stay with her, and would definitely do so again.

Fantastic experience leaving my girl with Krista. I had a last-minute change in travel plans and she was wonderfully flexible in scheduling a stay. Very professional and communicative; looking forward to leaving Sparta in such caring hands. Thank you!

Safety, trust & environment

I live in a condo building but there's lots of areas outside to venture around! I do own a crate if needed/preferred. I will bring your dog on many walks and ensure they have lots of play time (for the youngins) and rest (for the oldies) :)
