I'm as energetic as my Boxer!

Pet care experience

Hello! My name is Krista, and I have now two years experience in both dog walking and pet sitting. In my household we own a lovable 75 pound boxer named Ferdinand and a very fat but sweet cat named Dill. I'm a big cat lover, as I have now had my cat Dill for 12 years. I also love energetic dogs, and currently walk and dog sit for two other boxer families in my neighborhood. I am used to small dogs that don't want to go very far, to pullers like my own dog who are always ready to play or chase a squirrel. My dog keeps me on my toes and I feel it's helped prepare me for almost any other dog circumstance. I learn fast on my feet, am flexible and adaptable.

Krista has been coming over to take our puppy Ruby out for a few months now. She is great, reliable, always on time. She always sends me updates with pictures and reports. She is flexible and easy to deal with! I would definitely recommend her!

I have had the joy of knowing Krista all her life and so I know first hand of all her gifts, talents and qualities. It is the reason I looked to her first to take care of my pets every time I need or have known anyone who has needed a pet sitter. Krista is one of the most trustworthy and sensitive persons I've ever met. Besides her kindness and compassion for people, she extends those same gifts to all the animals who cross her path. Her energy, upbeat personality and sensitivity towards all animals almost makes me wish I were one myself! There have been times when she has stopped by my place and even when pressed for time, I have witnessed her offer my pets love and hugs and snuggles that make them just lover her. Every animal I've seen her with loves her! She treats every pet she encounters with such warmth and respect that I believe they are just drawn to her and it is why even my shyest cat comes out when she comes by! she has a gift and she is generous with it. Krista is a mature, incredibly intelligent young lady and yet she has the youthful playfulness and boundless energy we'd all love to have. But perhaps one of my favorite qualities about her is her love for pets even when she's away from them, demonstrated in the way she laughs and smiles when sharing an adorable memory or hilarious story about them. It just makes your day and leaves you feeling as happy and energized as a little puppy! If you have any questions regarding her experience, reliability or ability to connect with any pets, feel free to contact me.

Krista is a dedicated, conscientious dog walker. She has been my neighbor for 20 plus years and I have seen her personally interact with a variety of dogs. She is playful, friendly and patient with a every new "customer". She arrives on time and walks her dogs in all kinds of weather. I would recommend her without hesitation.

Krista is caring, loving, and active which translates well into caring for dogs! She has had several dogs throughout her life and has always treated them with the utmost respect and love. Krista truly finds joy in playing with, walking, and caring for dogs. Krista knows almost every dog in our neighborhood and they love her! She would be a great dog caregiver for dogs big and small!
