Pet care experience

Experienced and Active

I've been dog walking around my neighborhood since I was 15 years old, and since then I've cared for several different dogs with a variety of personalities, sizes, and energy levels. One thing that sets me apart is that I'm also a runner. If your dog enjoys extra exercise and is physically able, I'd be happy to take them on runs to help them burn energy and stay active. Whether your dog prefers a relaxed walk, plenty of playtime, or a more active outing, I'll make sure they get the care, attention, and exercise they need while you're away.

Kristina did a drop in mid day for our dog and did a great job. We would definitely use her services again.

Kristina has walked my dog multiple times and never disappoints! Super accessible, communicative, and responsible. I would highly recommend her to anyone in the area who's looking for a dog walker!

Kristina has been amazing with my dog, Luna. She’s dependable, kind, and really in tune with what Luna needs on her walks. She even took her to her favorite trail in Frick Park, which made Luna’s whole day—she came back happy, relaxed, and totally worn out in the best way.

I can’t say enough good things about Kristina as a dog walker. She stepped in and immediately made life easier for both me and my dog. My schedule can be unpredictable, but she was flexible, responsive, and always willing to help out when I needed an extra walk.

Kristina did an absolutely fantastic job walking my dog. From the very first walk, it was clear she genuinely cares about animals and takes her responsibility seriously. My dog can be a bit energetic and sometimes stubborn on walks, but Kristina handled everything calmly and confidently. I would definitely trust Kristina again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog walker.

Let me know ahead of time if a dog has any medical needs, allergies, or is taking medication. It’s also important to know if they have any behavioral quirks, such as being shy, reactive, or not comfortable around other dogs or people. Please share their normal routine, feeding instructions, leash habits, and any commands they respond to. I also appreciate knowing if they have any triggers or fears (like loud noises or certain environments) so I can keep them safe and comfortable at all times. I am fluent in Russian and English, and know some Spanish - but overall I pick up languages quickly if your pet only understands commands in another language!
