Love animals and being outdoors!
Pet care experience
I have 8 years of experience in all kinds of house siting, dog sitting, farm sitting. I’ve watched dogs, cats, chickens, goats, turkeys, and ducks. I have experience and am comfortable giving medication or special care to any pets. I have collected eggs from chickens and made sure their pens are kept clean. I love to go on hikes or long walks so I have a lot of experience with that and taking dogs with me. I am knowledgeable and experienced with dogs that are reactive to other dogs or animals when walking. I have done long term and short term sitting. I am very comfortable with communicating and keeping you updated on how your pets are doing. Staying over night, a check up on your pets, or even a good walk are all things I can do and enjoy very much!
Reviews
Krista was flexible and available to help out last minute and during a holiday week! She made extra sure my fur babies were safe and comforted during all the fireworks. She is a great communicator and provides updates throughout her stay so that I can relax while out of town. Thanks Krista!!
Oh man, Krista is AMAZING!!! She took such good care of our dogs and sent updates! The dogs were so much happier and didn’t spend 4 days full of anxiety like they would have in a boarder’s!
Krista has an outstanding work ethic! She doesn't mistreat your "fur baby", or the bare minimum for the money. They fall in love with her as much as she does with them. My dog is very large, a high maintenance, overgrown fluffball, and Krista cared for him so well that she left an impression on his heart that makes him excited everytime they are reunited. He is my first born, therefore, I expect just as high standards in pet care as child care. It is rare to find someone that gives you peace of mind when having to leave your fur baby at home.
Krista is loving and gentle with dogs. She has a dog of her own that’s she cares for and walks that adores her. I have witnessed her care for many client’s dogs in the past and has done an excellent job for them. She spends quality time with them, talks to them and simply loves on them. She has been entrusted to give medications on a routine basis and feed them special diets. Krista is trustworthy and dependable. You will not find someone better.

Safety, trust & environment
In your home I do my best to make your pets feel comfortable by following their normal daily routine to the best of my ability.
Information Krista P. would like to know about your pet
Temperament to people and other dogs, specific commands, dietary restrictions, sleep in a kennel, allowed on furniture, can be left in the house when left alone.
A typical day
Depending on the pet and what you are comfortable with I usually take them for a walk in the morning, then we chill at the house or play in the back yard. If you are ok with your pet traveling I have several places I like to take the dogs I watch on a regular bases. Sometimes we will go on some trails very close by or go to the beach. Most dogs I watch I’ve been watching for a few years and they now love going on adventures to see new things and keeps them excited while their owners are away.
