Hire me to help with your pet needs

Pet care experience

I grew up on a farm in Iowa most my life, so caring for animals is second nature to me. We raised cattle, horses, rabbits, many cats, and always had a trusty dog, too. I’ve loved animals all my life and often miss living on my parent’s farm. Since attending college and moving out of state, I’ve acquired 2 cats of my own - they’re very loved and spoiled. I’ve had roommates with indoor dogs that I helped with, too. I’d have a house full of pets if it were plausible! In short, I’ve cared for animals since I was a child, and I have great adoration and respect for all kinds of pets.

We were so happy with Krista spending time with our dogs. She did an excellent job caring for them and our home. We received photos and videos with exceptional communication from her. We would recommend her and we hope to use her services again. Thank you Krista, you’re awesome.

Thank you, Krista, for watching Chester and making sure he didn't rip out his stitches or get himself into trouble. He was in a challenging mood and Krista was so patient and kind with him, as well as communicative with me. Will definitely be calling on her again to puppy sit.

Krista has always been a true animal lover, be it cats, dogs, rabbits, fish, hamsters, or whatever. She looks for new ways to entertain and care for her pets. I believe she would be a very good individual for caretaking or walking pets.

I have known Krista since she was a child, and she has always loved animals and cared for them. She has taken care of my pets before and spoils her own pets as well. She would be an excellent pet sitter because she truly loves animals and wants to ensure their well being and happiness. I would 100 % recommend her as a pet sitter to anyone!

Trustworthiness, honesty, and communication are all valuable skills that I hold dearly. I have a good heart and just want to be of helpful service. I keep a very clean and pet-safe home (I have to, as I have 2 terribly nosey and curious kitties). I have good common sense and know what animals need.

I don’t work full time right now, so I’m available most the time. Most of my part time shifts are on the shorter side, so I’m only gone for a few hours at a time.
