Highlights
Pet care experience
Loving, Gentle, Pet-Focused Care
An experienced and passionate animal caretaker with a background that goes far beyond the usual cats and dogs! Over the years, I’ve personally cared for Siberian Huskies, Labrador Retrievers, Jack Russells, Beagles and cats. Each breed and species has taught me something new, and I’ve become skilled at understanding different personalities, behaviors, and care needs. I also have experience with checking in on and caring for other breeds. Whether you have a high energy husky, a lovable lab, a shy cat, I tailor my care to each animal’s needs. I’m committed to keeping pets comfortable, safe, and stress-free while you’re away, and I love sending updates, so you always feel connected. Your pets are family, and I’ll treat them like my own. I’d love to meet your furry or feathered companions!

Safety, trust & environment
When pets stay in my home, I make sure they’re treated like part of my own family. I follow their normal routines as closely as possible with feeding schedules, potty breaks, playtime, and any special needs they may have. I provide a safe, clean environment with plenty of supervision, enrichment, and affection. I’m experienced with a wide range of animals, especially breeds including Siberian Huskies, Labs, Jack Russells, and Beagles. Pets get individual attention, cozy resting spaces, and calm, structured care. If your pet has specific instructions, I’m happy to follow them exactly.
Ratings and reviews
Kristina is truly exceptional. From the moment she meets your dog, you can tell she understands animals on a deeper level. She communicates clearly, sends updates without being asked, and handles every situation with calm confidence. My dogs are usually shy with new people, but they warmed up to her instantly. I trust her completely and would recommend her to anyone looking for a responsible, caring, and knowledgeable sitter.
Kristina has cared for all of my pets over the years; she has helped with walks, feedings, medication schedules, and giving my furry fuzzbutts the love and care that I do. Fantastic communication, knowledgeable and thoughtful! You and your pet will not be disappointed! A++ recommend!!
I’ve known Kristina for several years. She kind, compassionate and loves all animals, including chickens and ducks! When I got into a situation with my rooster she’s the only person I trusted to rehome him to. She’s level headed and rational and I’d trust her to care for any of my animals at anytime.
Kristina has been a true blessing in my life and helped me with my hen when she was dying of a horrible illness. She took time to connect me with a network who helped troubleshoot and address the root cause. She is kind, caring and knowledgeable. She talked me "off the ledge" daily for weeks and gave me practical helps for each turn to give me hope to face another day. It is a rare soul who loves creatures with such depth and will move heaven and earth to help them. She has vast experiences with ducks, chickens, dogs and cats and has done the legwork to provide excellent care for not only her own brood, but others. I trust her implicitly. She is a rare jewel of a human being.
Kristina watched our shepherd (and cat) while we were away. Not only did she come over to let our pup out and feed him but she went above and beyond and spent extra time with him giving him lots of love while we were away! She even offered to walk our pup! She followed our requests to a T and contacted us when she had questions or concerns. There was never a moment where I was concerned that our pup wasnt in good hands! I highly recommend Kristina for any of your pet needs, as shes an avid pet lover & owner and it shows! You won't be disappointed!
Kristina is amazing with all her pets and all animals in general. She loves all animals as if they were her own and gives them the personalized attention that they need and deserve. I highly recommend her for all your pet care giving needs

Schedule
Pet care is naturally built into my daily routine because I already care for a variety of animals at home. Each day starts and ends with feeding, fresh water checks, enrichment, and plenty of interaction with my own pets, including dogs, cats, and a flock of 30 chickens/ducks. My routine also includes regular chores for my chickens and ducks, such as coop checks, cleanup, and health monitoring. Because animal care is already part of my everyday life, adding visits and walks for clients fits in smoothly. I’m used to managing multiple feeding schedules, medications, and activity needs, so organizing care throughout the week is second nature to me. I prioritize reliability, consistency, and keeping pets comfortable and happy, whether it’s a quick drop-in, a longer visit, or multiple check-ins during the day. In short, caring for animals isn’t something I fit into my schedule, it's already a natural part of my day. This makes me flexible, attentive, and fully committed to giving your pets the same dependable care I give my own.
