Pet care is naturally woven into my everyday life—I already spend my days walking, playing with, and caring for Goose. Working from home gives me the flexibility to provide frequent potty breaks, mid-day walks, and plenty of playtime. Whether it’s a quick cuddle, a mental-stimulating game, or an extra walk to burn energy, I can easily adjust my day to meet each pet’s needs.

Safety, trust & environment

In my home, pets are treated like family. Dogs have access to a secure balcony for fresh air and are allowed on the bed for snuggles, but not on other furniture. We follow a no human-food policy to keep pets safe. I stick closely to your feeding, exercise, and medication schedule, ensuring your dog feels comfortable and confident in their surroundings. Goose is extremely friendly with other dogs and fascinated (but gentle) with cats; if needed, I can separate spaces to keep everyone relaxed.

Loving Full-Time WFH Dog Mom!

Pet care experience

I’m a full-time work-from-home dog mom to my 2.5-year-old golden retriever, Goose, who loves meeting new friends. I can offer your pet constant companionship, regular potty breaks, and walks throughout the day. I’ve raised Goose since he was 12 weeks old, have over 5 years of pet-sitting experience, and grew up with cats. I can administer medications, follow detailed care instructions, and make sure your pet feels safe, loved, and part of the family from the moment they arrive.

Krista was amazing with my dog! She showed so much care and attention, and it was clear my boy felt comfortable and happy. I’ll definitely be using her again!

Krista is an amazing pet owner. She goes above and beyond when it comes to caring for her own Golden, Goose. I work with Krista and have seen firsthand how well-trained Goose is, and how happy and playful he is; all a reflection of Krista's caregiving. From providing Goose with a special collar that tracks his daily steps to ensure he's getting plenty of exercise, to throwing him a birthday party, Krista continuously shows she's an overqualified candidate for taking the best care of your best-friend.

Krista is an animal lover…especially dogs and cats. She is the loving mother of a 2 1/2 year old Golden Retriever and enjoys taking him on walks in her neighborhood, to the beach and dog parks. She is extremely responsible, attentive and loving. She also has experience in babysitting human children, as a tennis camp counselor and surf camp instructor. If you want your doggie to be well cared for and to have fun, I highly recommend Krista!
