Passionate Pet Care
Pet care experience
With over 14 years of devoted care for my family's beloved Golden Retriever, Ginger, I gained invaluable experience tending to her needs, especially in her senior years, where extra care had to be taken. Additionally, I have spent years around my sister's energetic Heeler mix in agility training giving me understanding of active dog care and training methods. My diverse array of pets through my lifetime, from geckos and guinea pigs to fish, has further enriched my understanding and commitment to responsible pet ownership. I've been around many animals, from cats, bunnies, and birds, fostering a deep appreciation for the individual needs and joys each creature brings. Recently, I've embraced the joys and witnessed the challenges of a new puppy at my in-laws, adding to my wealth of hands-on pet care experiences.

Krys took the time to make a real connection with our Pekoe. We’d never used Rover before and after we were paired she asked really great questions to make sure we were comfortable and she was prepared and we were aligned on expectations. She went out of her way to make sure he got the exercise he needed and she kept us updated with pictures and feedback to make us feel assured while she was with him! Thank you Krys - Pekoe looks forward to the next time!
This was our first time using a sitter. She was the perfect sitter for our two Bostons & sent pics. Unfortunately my 1yo went into heat the day before we left, but she still said yes to babysitting them 🥰. Now she can add ‘dogs in heat’ to her experience 😂 Thank you again. I would definitely use you again (after Emmie is fixed)
Excellent dog sitter! My pup was delighted with their visits. Punctual, great communication – highly recommend!
Great experience. Krystiana sent me lots of updates, had my dog out for a number of walks and was able to manage his separation anxiety while I was away. Will definitely be booking again!

Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
While I do not have dogs or cats in my own residence due to allergies in my family, I place high importance on core needs: Nutrition: Providing a balanced diet suitable for the species. Exercise: Ensure they get enough physical activity and mental stimulation. Healthcare: Regular check-ups, observation for signs and symptoms, grooming, and parasite prevention. Safety: Create a safe environment, keeping harmful substances away. Love and Attention: Spend quality time bonding and meeting their emotional needs. Currently we have a 35 gallon fish tank with aquatic plants with a community of various small and medium fish. As an example, I provide varied and nutritious food on a regular schedule (without overfeeding), clean weekly with water changes and testing, monitor for symptoms or illness, and offer stimulation and variety in tank design. When caring for pets of friends and family, I am keen on details and listening to ensure I understand the pet owners expectations and ensure their wishes and instructions are followed and adhered to. I am a strong communicator and possess the empathy, compassion and dedication to be a great caregiver!

Information Krystiana R. would like to know about your pet
Let me know if your dog has any special needs or behaviors that I should be aware of including socializing with other dogs when out walking, aggression or biting habits. I want to ensure that I respect your pet's boundaries and am aware of any signs they may express.
A typical day
Whatever you would like for the time spent! Which may include long walks and lots of exercise with the chuckit if they like to fetch, games, snuggles, toys and mental stimulation. I have access to a very large fenced yard with no safety issues, other pets, or children.

Availability
PLEASE NOTE: I do daily drop off and pick up of my school-age child and am not usually available for sleeping overnight during most weekdays. However, a few days short term or weekends & stats I can accomodate! Typically on weekdays, I house sit pets during the day, and go to my own residence until about 830am. Please message me if you have any questions on scheduling! I am fortunate to work business hours remotely from home daily, with alternating Fridays and weekends off. I have flexible breaks and lunches, allowing me to spend the time needed for pet care in my community.
