Energetic, animal-loving nurse!

Pet care experience

I have been a dog owner all of my life, and have even showed dogs professionally. I have helped friends by watching their dogs and providing advice for new dog-owners. I have also owned a dog with special needs so I can help with those pups as well! Dogs are like family and friends to me, so I love meeting other people's four-legged families! I also hate to see animals caged up while their owners are away, so providing them with a home away from home is a priority for me!

Kristina stayed with our dog one night. She was great from the very first meeting. After making an inquiry, I heard from Kristina right away and she arranged to come over and meet our dog Kuro and us later that evening. She showed up exactly on time and we agreed that she would watch Kuro a few days later. We had a couple of more texts confirming details beforehand. Kristina always promptly answered them. We needed to move our departure time out a couple of hours which was no problem for Kristina. During her stay, I received update texts on how Kuro was doing which of course made us feel at ease. So glad that we discovered Kristina. We will definitely be utilizing her in the future for Kuro. Highly recommended!

Kristina and I met in college and I found out pretty quickly she was a lover of animals! I have left my dog Oscar with her several times and he has always been happy. She has a wonderfully well behaved Austrailian Sheperd named Annie that got along great with my little weiner dog the first time they met! Kristina always went the extra mile and even trimmed Oscars nails and gave him a bath! I would highly recommend her to watch your dog.

Kristina is a wonderful dog owner and great with other dogs. She has cared for my beagle, Carl, and he had a great time! She took him on walks, refilled his food and water, and asked if I wanted her to take him to the dog park! Kristina was great at working with my busy schedule and has been a huge help to me and Carl.
