About: With 12 years of experience caring for pets, I’ve developed a deep understanding of their needs and personalities. I am skilled in administering medications and can accommodate any special requirements your pet may have. Whether it’s providing extra attention, managing specific routines, or ensuring their health and comfort, I’m dedicated to giving your pet the best care possible. I'm studying full time for my MCAT exam, so this is my only job at the moment. That being said, I make my own schedule and can adapt to the schedule that works best for you! I understand the importance of respecting both your home and your pet’s routine while pet sitting. I will follow your instructions carefully, maintain a clean environment, and ensure your pet feels comfortable and safe. I’ll treat your home with the utmost care, being mindful of your space and preferences, so you can enjoy peace of mind while you're away.
About: My entire life has been filled with a Love for animals. I treat animals with the utmost respect and care. They are family. I'm am also well versed in Special needs caregiving, including harness walks, backpack walks, wheelchair use, giving medication and first aid care. I love hiking and trail walking to get those sniffers going! Enrichment and positive reinforcement are the foundation of my interaction with animals. I'm currently working full time, but my hours vary depending on the day. I have openings available, and I'm sure we can work out the details. My goal is to get moving! Going outside for some fun games in the yard, in the pool, or on a trail for environmental enrichment hikes is always a delight. I love to get those sniffers working and brains interested. I will always walk with proper equipment, including 6 foot leash, or long lead if allowed. If you have toys, games or favorite treats you would like me to use, I would love to help with keeping your pet happy. Working on training every day is an important part of caring for animals. Busy minds and bodies, make for tired & happy well rounded individuals. Safety is always at the forefront of any interaction and I am confident in my ability to observe a situation based on an animals body language and behavior.
About: Hello, Im 18 years old, and just recently graduated hugh school. I am looking for a fun way to make money before I leave for college! Ive grown up taking care of dogs, and been around dogs since I was born. Ive always had a love for animals, especially dogs. I enjoy taking them for walks and watching them whenever needed. I cannot watch the dogs at my house, because my own dog isn’t friendly to other dogs, but i would be willing to come to you and dog sit/watch your dog whenever I am available to do so! I work in the mornings, but I am willing to get up early to let the dog out, and after work I would love to walk dogs! I also love working out, so taking your dog for a walk/run will fit perfectly with my schedule. I have a dog of my own, and I love teaching her new tricks and just taking care of her. If your dog doesn’t know very many tricks I would be willing to teach them simple things like sit and shake. I am available to walk your dogs as well!

I’m blessed to be able to have an opportunity to possibly love on your doggies. Due to physical reasons I’m not able ti walk to dogs but able ti let them out.

But I have 15 years experience with dogs, and I absolutely love animals. I live in an apartment and I do not have a fenced in yard. Your dog and I would be more comfortable at your house. But if that’s not an option I will make exceptions for coming to my home.

“Kristina is my go to puppy sitter when I am going out of town. She is fantastic with both large and small dogs. I have an English Mastiff and a Chihuahua. Both dogs love Kristina. I really feel like her home is a second home to my fur babies. Kristina is knowledgeable, fairly priced, and genuinely loves the animals she cares for. I love the fact that she will text me cute pictures, text updates on how my dogs are, a cute little report card for when I pick my dogs up, and she bathes my babies too while they are in her care. Honestly, the little things like that are nice, but the truly priceless thing is that I feel so comfortable with my dogs being in her care. I know that they are in safe, loving and caring hands, and that allows me to truely enjoy my vacation or focus if I am on a business trip. My dogs and I are so blessed to have found Kristina!”
