Pet care experience
Safe, Clean, & Secure 🐶🐾
I moved back to the USA 4 years ago after serving refugees in the Middle East full time for 7 years. All I wanted when I got back was a dog to love and cuddle!! I currently don’t have one of my own so I get my puppy cuddles from other peoples pets for now. I was raised with high maintenance animals and was always caring for friends pets while gone. Pro’s and con’s of choosing me below. PROs - Half my work schedule is “work from home." My hours can be flexible, this provides me ability to spend more time with your fur babies depending on advanced notice to schedule my work from home hours to be more physically present while pet sitting. (This can be discussed in more detail if you reach out). - I don’t smoke or drink - Very clean - Highly aware of safety & security - I adapt easily so if your pup has a weird schedule I’m ok with that. - Okay with the pets sleeping in the bed if they prefer it - Okay driving smaller dogs to a park for play - Unbelievable amount of patience. It takes a lot for something to bother me. - LOVE playing with dogs or choosing to cuddle in front of the TV. - LOVE LOVE LOVE old geriatric dogs. They tend to be high maintenance but I can’t handle the cuteness. 😍 CONS - I will not care for huskies or German shepherds. It’s a hard pass for me. - meet and greets are a must. Dogs with escape history, jumpers, or “love biters” are likely to be turned down. - Rover only allows me to select evening hours ending by 10pm. I can only provide services up to 7:30PM. - I can’t take the pups home with me 😭

Safety, trust & environment
I don’t believe shouting at animals, using brute force or aggressive tone is helpful. And it’s not okay! For my safety and your pets safety, they will always be cared for with respect, compassion and gentleness. I carry a personal panic button connected to ADT. If something were to happen to me all I have to do is push it and the police are dispatched to my location immediately.
Ratings and reviews
Kristina was awesome and responsive and took great care of my pups. Didn’t barely leave a trace in the house and I had an overall pleasant experience working together.
Kristina was wonderful. She stayed at our house for five days and kept our cats company while we were away. She was kind and considerate and kept us updated throughout our vacation. We felt comfortable and at ease knowing our boys were in good hands. Kristina went above and beyond for us, and we were grateful to have her as our sitter.
Kristina did a wonderful job of taking care of my little dog. She is responsive and caring. My dog is special needs and he was relaxed and trusting of Kristina. I highly recommend her.

Schedule
My daily routine is dependent on how much notice I have to plan my “work from home” hours in my weekly schedule. Due to work from home hours, WiFi access is a must. If you have a pet that needs someone present 24/7 on a weekday, I would not be a good fit for you. Nor would accommodating potty breaks every 1-3 hours if it is not a weekend. Please don’t select “drop in visit” if you need me to stay all day but not overnight. Drop in visits are typically 1 hour or less.
