Pet care experience

Instant love for all your pets!

I have always loved animals, and I can't imagine a life without them! I'm equal parts cat and dog person, and my family always had both growing up. I have been taking care of animals ever since I can remember. I've been extremely active as a petsitter for friends and family since childhood, and more recently, I have been a petsitter through a home/petcare exchange site with all exceptional 5 star-reviews. Pet-sitting and dog-walking allows me to connect with the people I love most--animals! (I'm kidding...sort of!) I will care for your pets as if they are my own. I understand your furry friends are part of your family and that it is no small matter to have a stranger taking care of them and your home. I strive to become your pet's friend and substitute pet-parent, not just an anonymous care-taker! I am a freelance editor, artist, and writer--I make my schedule which means I can be flexible and frequently available. I travel quite a bit and will always update my location and availability. I have experience with dogs and cats of all kinds, including those with special needs. I'm reliable, flexible, and I'm excited to spend time and really connect with your furry friend. I'm happy to send texts/pictures and update you on our visits and time together so that you may have peace of mind. I will strive to make both pets and parents as comfortable as possible.

We had an amazing experience with Kristina, while she looked after our dog, Bambi for six days. From the very beginning, she was incredibly detail-oriented - taking thorough notes during our first meeting and making sure she understood Bambi’s routine, preferences, and needs. Throughout the stay, Kristina was highly communicative, consistently sending updates and the sweetest photos, which gave us so much peace of mind. It was clear that she truly cared for Bambi as if she were her own. She made sure Bambi got plenty of exercise with long walks and fun trips to the dog park, which we really appreciated. Knowing Bambi was in such attentive and loving hands made us feel completely stress-free while we were away. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and would absolutely trust Kristina again in the future!

Kristina was a fantastic sitter! She watched my dog, Roxy, for two days while I was out of town, and I felt completely relaxed knowing she was in great hands. She sent regular updates and photos, which gave me peace of mind that everything was going well. She is very responsible, thorough, and incredibly respectful of my space and apartment. I highly recommend her, she’s great!

Please let me know if your dog has any special needs, dietary restrictions, or aggressive behaviors. For walks, it is good to know your dog's energy level, as well as their normal routine. I want them to have a enjoyable experience.
