Pet care experience
I grew up always having a few large dogs but unfortunately can’t have my own in an apartment. I’ve filled this dog sized hole in my heart over the past ten years by housesitting and dogsitting for bosses, family members, friends, and even friends of friends. I usually housesit for at least a couple days but have stayed for up to three weeks. I am happy to take care of the home, take the dog(s) for walks, take them on special trips (Starbucks for pup cones, Feeders Supply to pick out a toy, parks, etc.) when they allow, and of course feed, water, and do all of the essential upkeep. I am comfortable watching multiple pets but, since I only housesit, I can only watch one owner’s pets at a time.
Reviews
Krista was fabulous. She was very communicative and took such good care of our boy. We had some unexpected issues with our house, too, and she was so kind and understanding about that. I would definitely use Krista again!
Krista is always great with my boy! She made sure he ate well when he wasn’t really into it, took him on his favorite walking paths, and left the house as it was. She kindly sent me daily pics and left him with a new toy!
Krista was absolutely amazing! She took great care of our two GoldenDoodles and sent us updates throughout the stay. Highly recommend!
Krista was a wonderful pet sitter for our three dogs! She was very communicative and caring towards our dogs. We highly recommend her and will definitely use her again!! ???

Unfortunately, my apartment has a “no visiting pet policy” so I cannot board any animals at my home. However, I am happy to housesit for you! When I stay, my personal policy is to leave the home as clean or cleaner than I found it, and I will accommodate any housekeeping instructions you may request.
Information Krista S. would like to know about your pet
Please let me know if your dog has any special needs or behaviors that I can account for. I am happy to accommodate as best as possible.
A typical day
I know that every dog is different so I account for that when planning our activities. I’ll take a high energy dog on a run, snuggle all evening with a low energy dog, take a social dog to the park, spend one on one time with a socially anxious dog, sleep with a cuddly dog, or give personal space to a touch-me-not dog. I’m very flexible and happy to adapt to each dog’s preference.

Monday - Friday: I work full time (9-5) as an attorney in New Albany, IN. I have one hour lunch break from 12-1 that I can use to check in on pets. Saturday/Sunday: My plans tend to vary on the weekends, but I will provide you information about any potential conflicts. For the most part, as long as I have a stay scheduled well in advance, I can keep my schedule clear.
