Kaya Kristina lives near High Park; she is the landlord and head chef of Starpups Coffee, an exclusive fine dining experience located right on her front lawn. Every day Kaya puts out treats, water and sticks for local dogs to enjoy for free during their walks. Through this, Kaya has built a community of dogs and their owners known on Instagram as the High Park Pups. When visiting her yard, people are encouraged to snap a photo of their pet, which Kaya later reposts to the account. With all the positive feedback, from dogs and their owners, Kaya is planning to continue her Starpups Caf as long as she can.
