Above all, when caring for your pets, they come first! I am also self-employed creative professional who can work from anywhere with my laptop, which I may do during house sits. Having furry pals to hang with me at work makes it the best kind of “office”.

Safety, trust & environment

To ensure that you feel confident your pets will feel safe and have a fun time with me while you’re away, I always schedule a Meet & Greet with new clients. While I’m there, your pets will have an opportunity to get to know me, while we talk about their routine, any special needs they have, and other details about their care. It would be most helpful if before submitting a request, that you have a completed profile that includes details and care info for all of your pets.

Information Kristina K. would like to know about your pet

For new clients, when you send an inquiry, please let me know... How often do you feed, walk, and give treats? How comfortable your dog around other dogs on walks? Does your pet have any health issues or need medication? Is there anything else I should know about your pet? It's also very helpful if you have completed your pet's Rover profile. Thank you!

A typical day

While you're away, your furry friends will get lots of exercise, play, and plenty of tummy rubs, ear scratches, and cuddles. I like to keep your pet's day as close to their normal routine as possible.

Happy Tails Loving Pet Care

Pet care experience

Hello! I am a caring, affectionate, and dedicated animal lover and Certified Dog Trainer with over 30 years of experience caring for pets. I offer house sits, drop-in visits and doggy day care (up to 20 lbs), where I provide your furry friends with fun and enriching experiences. I love animals dearly, and I look forward to caring for your furry friends! Cheers, Kristina • My Background: Having cared for a variety of breeds and mixes from all backgrounds, I know how to adapt to each unique pet personality. I quickly identify what works best for them individually, and—ultimately—what helps them feel safe, comfortable, and happy! I am very attuned to and nurturing of animals who suffer from anxiety, especially our adopted friends. I grew up with animals and am fortunate to have had four dogs and two cats of my own over the last 30+ years, including two Shih Tzus, a Scottish fold, and an adopted domestic long hair. I later adopted two terrier mixes, a Jack Russell cattle dog, then 8 years later a miniature pinscher rat terrier, each with me 15 years. • Medication and Senior Pet Care: I have a lot of experience managing complex medical conditions and can administer medications and injections, work with special diets, and care for senior pets. • Training: When training dogs, only use positive methods to reinforce and encourage desired behavior by rewarding with treats, pets, play, and praise.

Sent lots of pictures and was very communicative. There was never a doubt that my dog was in great care with Kristina.

I cannot say enough good things about Kristina! She truly goes above and beyond for our pups. She stayed with them for 5 nights and was truly amazing. She did everything we asked her to do with the pups and more. She would send me incredible pictures of the pups (truly professional grade) daily and detailed updates. The pups really love her. We are so thankful that she is able to continue our training even when we are gone. On top of all of that, she left our house in pristine shape! Kristina is just the best!

Kristina is the best! She takes such amazing care of our pups. She does such a great job of continuing our training and following all the instructions that we leave her. She sends updates and pictures frequently which we love. We are so grateful for Kristina!

Kristina was amazing! She was so on top of it and handled these two energetic pups impressively. I left her a long list of instructions and she was so attentive to everything we asked. We are working hard to train the pups and she carried over the language and routine we used into her sitting so nicely. She sent tons of updates with pics and videos! We highly recommend Kristina and would love to have her watch the pups again!
