Experience in Animal Science!

Pet care experience

Hi! I'm Krista and I'm an avid dog lover. I've owned two dogs for more than 10 years and love interacting with all breeds, sizes and personalities. In college I studied animal science which gives me an excellent background on all things dog related! I also have experience with dogs recovering from surgery, injecting needles (for allergies, diabetes, etc), administering ear drops and medications of all kinds (pill pods, the kind you inject into the back of their throats, etc)I am currently a grad student just looking to pick up some extra cash in my down time. I'm working during the day time Monday thru Thursday but have a lot of time off before and after work hours and on weekends. I'd love to come hang out with your dog(s) and help you out. I look forward to meeting you and your dog soon!

This was the first time I attempted to use a service like this. I have a recue dog that has a problem with fear aggression and doesn't do well with strangers coming to the house. So Krista had a tough job at hand. Where most people would have walked away, Krista hung in there and figured a way to get the job done. She took the time and had the skills to make Dawson comfortable with her and made the weekend a success. She also stayed in contact with me throughout the weekend. My wife and I were able to enjoy our trip without worries. I was really impressed and would like to extend my highest possible recommendation for Krista.

Krista is truly passionate about caring for and interacting with dogs. She is a natural and you can tell that the dogs respond really well to her. She is very responsible and is great at walking dogs and caring for them - including picking up after them, feeding them, administering medications, and of course loving on them!

As a dog owner herself (actually two dogs), Krista understands the needs and the care necessary for a pet to live a playful and enjoyable life. Her own dogs have medical issues that require extra attention in providing daily medication and assistance in climbing stairs/steps, so her attention to specials needs is well developed. Additionally, Krista has experience volunteering for Friday afternoon dog walking and "playtime" at the Va Tech's School of Veterinary Medicine as she pursued her undergrad studies that included several credit hours in the field of animal science. Krista is caring and responsible. Thumbs up!

Krista is one of the most responsible and caring people I know. She has never met a dog that did not love her and much as she loved them. I know my dog always greets her with a big wagging tail and she gives him all the attention in the world. Her two dogs, Hokie and Beamer, have been raised well, know commands and are loving pups. I cannot reiterate enough how trustworthy, caring, responsible and friendly Krista is.

Information Krista S. would like to know about your pet

I have absolutely no preferences on breed. I would like to know about your dogs personality. Are they shy? Do they get anxious when separated from you? Are they unconditionally loving? Is there anything they enjoy or are there certain things to stay away from?
