Kristina S.

Hi! My name is Kristina and I'm not only an animal lover, but previously worked as a PA/EA to high profile individuals , which included property management, so I am very conscientious and experienced in taking care of others' homes. You are naturally concerned about entrusting your home and pets to a stranger, but with my experience and background, you will definitely be able to relax during your time away.

Currently I am a freelancer in communications and marketing and live in Milan, but I spend a lot of time in France and Sweden where I have family. I'm a Swedish and American citizen that speaks five languages thanks to life spent living in nine countries, so I'm definitely hyper-agile, perceptive and easily take the initiative when necessary! Despite my previous career in luxury surroundings, I'm a very down-to-earth person. All I need is a reliable internet, some nice scenery, a comfy bed, and a good kitchen for cooking nice meals!

My Experience with Animals: During my childhood, my family had a couple of chickens, three rabbits, a Cocker Spaniel mix, and a cat. As an adult, I've had cockatiels, canaries, three dogs (two beautiful mutts and a Shar-pei), a tuxedo cat, and many fish. I also took care of an iguana two times! During the pandemic my daughters and I fostered three dogs from high-kill shelters which was incredibly rewarding. Naturally it takes quite a bit of patience and affection to ease these dogs out of their stress and trust humans again, but we thrived together and they were placed in their "forever-homes" rather quickly. Currently I'm on the road so have no pets, which means lots of energy for yours!

I've been a house and petsitter for two years and have excellent references: 23+ five-star reviews on various petsitting platforms, 23 five star reviews on Airbnb (both as host and guest), great references on LinkedIn, plus written references. I'm happy to provide any further information that would help you feel confident about me taking care of your home and pets. Feel free to get in touch for a phone call or video chat!

Note that I occasionally travel with my 18 year old twin daughters and we have many perfect references from house and pet owners about their kindness and conscientiousness. I always let home and pet owners know when applying if my daughters will be with me.
