Highlights
Pet care experience
Experienced + Caring In-home Sitter
With 15+ years of experience, I’m a compassionate and dependable pet/home care provider who truly loves caring for animals of all kinds. Whether it’s cats, dogs, small rodents, or avians, I tailor my approach to meet each pet’s unique needs. My background working in a veterinary clinic and alongside a professional dog trainer has given me hands-on expertise in pet behavior, health, as well as handling reactive, high-energy, and anxious dogs. I’m here to provide your furry/feathery family members with the love, attention, and care they deserve, making sure they feel safe and happy while you’re away. You can count on me to care for your pets as if they were my own, providing you with regular updates through photos and videos to keep you connected from afar. Your pets & home: Boarding isn’t always the best fit for every pet, so I’m here to offer personalized care right in the comfort of their own home! I’ll handle everything from feeding and water refills to clean-up, interactive playtime, and walks—whether it's around the block, to the park, or on a fun hike (at an additional cost). I love caring for multiple pets and different species, including birds and small rodents so please don’t hesitate to reach out with any questions! In addition, I offer basic house-sitting services such as bringing in the mail and watering your plants, (etc.) ensuring your home is well-maintained during your absence. My goal is to make sure your pets feel loved and your home stays in great shape!
Qualifications
Safety, trust & environment
Pet Safety: I am hyper-vigilant of all potential dangers for each pet inside and outside of their homes because their safety is my number one priority. For everyone’s safety, it is vital that pet owners are honest about their pet’s behaviors/triggers/past experiences, as this would allow me to know how to best approach any scenario/situation. Your home: Along with caring for your pets, I also take great pride in looking after your home. I treat both pets and homes with the utmost respect and attention to detail. I bring my own food, pillow, blanket, and towel, and I’ll even change the sheets before I leave. I’m happy to cuddle with pets who enjoy company—one of my favorite parts of the job! I can also handle tasks like washing sheets (if there’s a washer/dryer), bringing in the mail, watering plants, taking out the trash, and more. My goal is to ensure you have complete peace of mind while you're away, and I deeply value the trust you place in me.
Ratings and reviews
Krystie is a fantastic dog walker/sitter. Our nearly 2 yr old golden retriever loves her and is so excited to see her. She is trustworthy and attentive to detail and excellent at communicating. We have found her to be very professional and she takes such good care of our dog. She has been the perfect fit for our lovable, mischievous and energetic dog. She is an absolute pleasure to deal with and we highly recommend her.
Not only is Krystie great with communication, but she takes the best dog videos/photos! I always feel great seeing how happy my puppo is through the Rover card!
Krystie takes better photos for my Rover Card than I do and they genuinely make my day!!
Krystie did a great job and our dogs loved being with her. Highly recommended!
Perfect! Great walk my dog really enjoyed his time with Krystie.
This was our first time going on vacation and leaving our dog Taco with a dog sitter (vs. boarding). We were pretty nervous but Krystie gave us regular updates about Taco — videos and photos and brief messages about Taco's day. We could tell Krystie was spending a lot of time with Taco and bonding with her which was really reassuring while we were away. Before Krystie's stay, she asked lots of questions and made preparations and she clearly had reviewed the detailed instructions we provided for her. Unfortunately toward the end of our trip, Taco had an issue, but Krystie was on top of it and communicated with us right away. She was able to take Taco to the emergency vet for treatment. Overall we feel very fortunate that Krystie was the one to take care of Taco! We highly recommend her services.

Schedule
I currently work online, so I am very flexible when it comes to booking clients & caring for pets. Because I do most of my work online, your pets can be accompanied & cared for multiple hours in both day & night-which can be especially helpful for pets with separation anxiety. Every pet is unique, so I leave it to the owners to disclose their individual needs.
