Looking for some 4 legged friends!
Pet care experience
Hi my name is Krystyna. I am 37 years old and a mom of three humans, two pitbulls (one recently passed.) I am a former assistant manager at a busy Chicago Doggy Daycare that lasted for three years before returning to the St.Louis area and running my own pet care service for three years before having my first child. I can care for more than just dogs. I am generally best available during the day but I can fit in evening times when needed. I also have a lot of experience with potty training puppies and I'm more than happy to visit your puppy as many times a day as you like. If it is vacation drop ins that you prefer I am always more than happy to bring a newspaper and take your mail as well as make sure the porch lights go on at night and off in the morning or anything else that you feel needs to be done like watering plants. I do have special rates for things like that. Contact me for more information and I will be happy to provide you with a reference or two if you like
Reviews
Pocky loved walking with Krystyna! She was also super responsive and did great at send me pics of how Pocky was doing. I would definitely use her again for future dog watching needs.
Krystyna has been working with animals for 15 years. She's dedicated and reliable and committed. Krystyna has a rare love for all pets and is very knowledgeable. She has experience owning animals and working in a pet store. She would make an excellent petsitter.
Krystyna is a compassionate caregiver and fierce animal lover. I have worked with Krystyna for many years now and found her to be reliable and trustworthy. Your pet will be in safe hands with her!
Krystyna did a wonderful job with my dogs during the two weeks I was on vacation. She was attentive to my dogs' needs, walking them twice every day. When we returned, they had been well-fed and were happy. I used her previously for a few extended-weekend jobs but felt nervous leaving my babies for two weeks, but there was absolutely no reason for me to be that way because she did a fantastic job! I highly recommend her for this job.

I take care of that animal as it if were my own. I also understand that since I am not this animal's owner, it may not react to me the same way my animal's do when doing certain things. I take more caution and practice safe handling at all times. Dogs do not go outside of a fenced area unless they have a proper collar and harness/leash attached.
Information Krystyna P. would like to know about your pet
I do not have any breed preferences as I love all breeds and I'm a strong believer in battling the laws that are currently against the bully breeds the things I like to know about a dog before I care for them are their temperaments and things that they may or may not like me doing with them or around them and also certain habits they might have to Aid me in helping them go to the bathroom or have the most fun that they can have. It is also important for me to know what kind of foods that they are eating and which foods are off limits as far as treats go. Also I would need to know if they have any allergies or if there are any disabilities that they currently face that I would need to keep mind over. Most of all I really do enjoy having a first meet and greet that way I can familiarize myself with the dog before I enter the house unexpectedly
A typical day
Generally when I take a dog on a walk I like to practice walking with them and training them how to walk correctly on a leash if they do not already know how to do so as well as allow them to have fun and get all the exercise and love that they want. I will also leave a little sheet at the end of each walk that will let you know what they did and how our walk went.

Availability
It is what I do during the day for the most part! I also have a little flexibility in the evenings as none of my obligations are more than a couple hours in duration.
