Availability

I’m a healthcare student, not currently working, so my full time job would be caring for your pet! I’m available on weekdays and weekends also. (Depends on schedule). Since every pet’s routine is very individual I modify my schedule to each pet’s needs. Due to high volume of clients especially during the holidays and weekends I recommend to book ahead of time. Feel free to message me for my availability and I’ll see what I can do :)

Safety, trust & environment

I do understand the importance of trusting someone to care for your "kids" and especially in your own home! I’m a trustworthy, responsible, punctual person who finds spending time around animals calming. I personally prefer meet & greet (free) first, so we can discuss your pet’s needs and routines and how the whole thing will work.

Information Kristyna P. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know in advance if there are any special needs or behaviors I can account. Usually only basic house rules. ( treats, is it okay to refill a water bowl with a tap water, sound phobias etc.) P.S What exactly are drop-in visits for? Drop-in visits = medication, play time, feeding

A typical day

Again, a typical day will vary and the routine, service is very individual. I like to stimulate your dogs physically and mentally. We can play bunch of games, such as hide and seek (which is usually dog’s favorite) in your yard, tug of war, we’ll go to explore a nice park in the neighborhood. We can check out the beach or with older dogs we just move slow and hang out! While house sitting: there are 3 walks/day + sleepover included in price which I already find as a fair deal.

Less talk and more walk

Pet care experience

Hello! My name is Kristyna, I am originally from Czech Republic and I live in the West Town neighborhood. Animals have always been a big part of my life. I used to take care of retired race horses for over 2 years. I have experience of administering treatments to diabetic pet, taking care of dogs suffering from Hear-worm disease or senior dogs with disabilities. I have had a Labrador growing up and currently I have a 4-year old dog that got through Heartworm treatment also.

Our cats are so comfortable with Kristyna. She’s very good with giving us updates/photos of our cats, including updates of the litter and their feeding time. We trust her and her ability to care for our pets!

Kristyna really earns her reputation as star sitter. We know from pictures and communication that our cats are very comfortable with her, and in her updates she shows us both the litter that she takes care of, and the way she plays with our cats. We are so grateful to her!

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
