Responsible & Trustworthy

Pet care experience

I have a 12 year old Jackrussell Terrier who I adore and love as my child. I will treat your pet with the same care that I treat my baby with. I know how important it is to trust someone else to care for your pet while you are away. I will send pictures/videos if you like and keep you updated as you wish. I grew up with all kinds of animals ie: german shepards, jackrussell terriers, rabbits, pigeons and siamese cats. I have owned two Siamese cats as well as my jack but right now I only have a dog. I take her for walks around the neighborhood and usually over to Central Park every morning and evening. I live two blocks away from Central Park so it is very convenient. We have plenty of toys, balls and squeaky toys. I also have a dog bed and cozy blankets. Pets are allowed on my couch and bed as well. I will treat your pet as if they were my own. Your pet will always be in good hands with me!

Krista is such a great caregiver. She’s taken amazing care of my dog Pippa many times. She sends me frequent updates with pictures. In all of the pictures I can tell how happy she is, which reassured me while I’m away. Highly recommend Krista for your pet!

I walk my dog mostly in central park. Just let me know if your dog has any specific needs, allergies, or anything to be careful with on a walk (ie. afraid of anything, chases rats, or just anything else that would be helpful or mindful about. I do take a lot of pictures of dogs and I can send them if you like while you are away, I love doing that because I know when someone watches my dog I love to see pics. If not, I can just reach out if there is an emergency. I can also do last minute boarding stays.

I work from home Monday and Fridays and if I’m watching your pet, I will be home with them the whole time. If you need me to watch your pet for the weekend, I am also available for a drop off Thursday evening if needed. I can walk dogs in the evening on Thursday after 6 pm as well. I live in a doorman building and at times there can be other dogs in the elevator. Just let me know if that is okay or not. I can be as accommodating as you need. I usually walk my dog as early as 7 am and a couple times during the day then again in the evening before bed.
