Dog Care, Walks & Play
Hi! I’ve been a dog lover for as long as I can remember, and I’m the proud mom of Sofi, my 6-year-old Jack Russell/Chihuahua mix. She’s a sweet but (incredibly) stubborn little rescue who has shown me how important patience is in dog care and how to meet the needs of dogs with unique personalities. I believe every dog deserves a day filled with exercise, fun, and positive interactions, so I make sure our walks are engaging, our playtime is full of tail wags, and that your pup feels safe and happy. From long hikes to park adventures, playdates, or even medication administration, I care for every dog like they’re my own. You’ll also get regular photo, video, and text updates so you can relax knowing your pup is in good hands.

Safety, trust & environment
Your dog’s safety and happiness always come first. I will tailor our walks/play to ensure that we steer clear of unsafe areas/situations, always have water available, and I give them my undivided attention. If I’m caring for your dog at home, I’ll stick to their routine, follow your instructions exactly, and leave your place just as I found it. Whether your dog is shy, energetic, or somewhere in between, I meet them where they’re at - with patience, care, and plenty of love!
Ratings and reviews
Kristina was awesome with my Jack. I knew immediately how much of a conscientious person she was when she started asking questions at the meet and greet. She kept us totally up to date with Jack including plenty of photos. She made sure he ate because sometimes when we’re not home he doesn’t want to eat. She even stayed a bit longer with Jack knowing he would be alone the rest of the time. Jack fell in love with Kristina right away. Best of all, she braved the harsh weather and made it to the house to take care of Jack. Plenty of snow came down and she still made it to the house. The driveway was not plowed until the third day. She even sat down with Jack while he slept. I was totally impressed with her service. I definitely recommend her to anyone. I will continue using her from now on as long as she’s available.
Kristina is an absolutely outstanding pet sitter and a true gem for any dog parent. From our very first interaction, we felt an instant connection thanks to her warm personality and genuine thoughtfulness. Before her stay, she asked detailed, insightful questions about Penny’s routines and habits, showing how much she cares about getting everything just right. During the stay, Kristina went above and beyond, sending incredible updates filled with photos and videos that gave us total peace of mind. She brings a rare level of compassion and professionalism to dog sitting. While many shy away from special instructions, Kristina embraces them—she even provides her own simple, thoughtful questionnaire to ensure every detail is covered. We loved having Kristina in our home, and most importantly, Penny had the best time with her. It’s clear she treated Penny like her own. We can’t recommend Kristina highly enough and feel so lucky to have found her.

Kristina has been absolutely wonderful with my pup, Ozzy! From the very beginning, her communication was outstanding. Before our first walk, she provided a detailed questionnaire that covered everything from feeding routines and training carryover to behavior habits and favorite toys. She asked thoughtful clarifying questions and really took the time to get to know Ozzy’s needs. During her first walk with Ozzy, Kristina kept me updated frequently (just as I requested), which gave me so much peace of mind. It’s always nerve wracking leaving your baby with someone new, but Kristina made me feel so comfortable and left me with zero hesitations. It’s clear she truly cares about the pets she works with and goes above and beyond to make sure they’re happy and safe. I would highly recommend her to any pet parent looking for a reliable, thorough, and genuinely caring sitter!
Kristina was awesome! Super trustworthy and clearly cares a lot about dogs. She kept me in the loop all day with updates and tons of cute pics, which I really appreciated. She totally went above and beyond—I’d 100% trust her with my dog Casey again and definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a great sitter.
Kristina is an excellent pet sitter! She is communicative, kind and patient. My dog is a anxious and slow to warm up but took to Kristina quickly. Finding a dog sitter that can take care of my dog’s high energy needs can be a challenge, however, Kristina took my dog on multiple walks and provided her with mental stimulation with food puzzles too. It is obvious that she knows a lot about interacting with dogs. 10/10 stars!

Kristina is absolutely wonderful! She has cared for our dog Stowe multiple times, both for walks and boarding, and we cannot recommend her highly enough. From the thoughtful questions she asked beforehand to really get to know Stowe, to the loving attention she gives him each visit, we always know he is in the very best hands. The updates and pictures she sends are so thoughtful and reassuring, and it’s clear how much she truly cares about animals. Stowe adores her, and so do we. We can’t wait to have her care for him again!

Schedule
Outside of my usual work schedule, I’m available mornings, afternoons, evenings, and even sometimes for last-minute bookings. I do have some flexibility and can sometimes move things around.
