Safety, trust & environment
I’m happy to come to your home to give you that reassurance that your fur baby is doing okay while you’re away. As I said, I work fully remote so my pets pretty much have constant care unless I’m traveling for work. I typically let my dog out about 3-4 times a day depending on her needs, so I’m happy to do the same for your dog. She gets fed twice a day, as well as my cat. Every now and then we will switch out dry food for wet food just to give them both some variety, so I’m happy to do the same for your pet. You and your pet’s comfortability are my priority so I’m happy to cater to your preferences.
Information Krista S. would like to know about your pet
If they are shy or tend to be moody. I would need to know about any medications I’ll have to give them while you’re gone. I also definitely need to know how they are around other pets (mostly dogs). My dog can get skittish around other dogs, so I generally avoid interactions with other dogs because of this. I’ll most likely take that same measure with your dog just to be cautious and help them feel safe.
A typical day
Stevie is an elderly dog and just had surgery this past summer on her knee so we don’t do a lot of heavy activity. I do however walk her at least once a day to give her knee some good exercise and just some movement and stimulation for her in general.

Loving and fun care for your pet♥️
Pet care experience
I’ve cared for animals since I was about 10 years old. I’ve helped train puppies from a young age, and nursed kittens from 3-weeks old. More recently I’ve helped nurse and rehabilitate my senior dog after her major ACL surgery. She was sling bound for 6 weeks so I feel very comfortable with a large range of ages, and needs in cats and dogs. I have a huge love for all animals and believe all of them deserve love and care just like humans! I’m also here because my lovely fiancé and I just got engaged this past summer. I’m hoping to save up and earn as much money as I can to help host our dream wedding here in the mountains next year! We both love our babies and I would be happy to give your fur babies that same love and support ☺️ UPDATE: Sadly I can no longer provide overnight sittings. I AM available to do a sitting that does not require me to stay at your home overnight. I understand if this prevents you from hiring me for a sitting.
Cat care experience
Krista also cares for cats. Learn about their cat-specific care experience.
Reviews
Krista was great w our pups! We have a Jack Russell who is select with people he likes and dislikes. He was calm and comfy with Krista which allowed us to enjoy our time away. Krista was great with our beagle too.! We look forward to using Krista’s services again :)
Krista was a great house sitter for us! She took great care of our 2 dogs and we’d be happy to ask for her help again.
Krista was great with my cat. Played with her and made sure she had everything she needed even attention.
