Experienced Animal Lover Available

Pet care experience

Hello! I am a recent graduate of Old Dominion University with a Masters in Public Health. I have always been an animal lover and would love to spend some quality time loving on your pet while you are away! I spend a lot of my time enjoying the outdoors and would love to take your pup along on trail adventures, around the block, or just out for a quick potty break - whatever your preferences may be to fit the lifestyle of your dog. My experience has a pretty wide range as I have done housesitting, drop ins, and dog walking independently through word of mouth for years. I've even traveled across the world to Japan with a dog in cabin on the plane. ( I am a cat lover and cat mom as well!! ) I reside in the Fan and have a very flexible schedule. I cannot wait to get to know and love your pet - I look forward to meeting you!

She is very professional, responsible and responds to communications in time. I will definitely try to get her to catsit again.

I appreciate communication on any preferences or routines you have with your pet as you truly know them and your home best! I aim to provide the safest care possible.

Information Krista P. would like to know about your pet

I would like to know any medications or special instructions you have for the care of your fur baby as I want to insure they are as comfortable as possible while you are gone. If there is a certain way you would like things done I would love to know as I aim to provide the best care and love that I can!

A typical day

I am willing to take your dog along side me for a run or walk on a trail, around the neighborhood, or to a local park. I also enjoy down time as well and would be happy to cuddle up for a movie. I am aware that different dogs have differing needs depending on age/activity level and I am more than happy to accommodate whatever needs your pup has specifically!

I work from home and have the ability to do drop ins midday or at a time that best suits you. I love an excuse for a midday walk and routinely go on walks morning and evening most days.
