Krishna bhakti is to fulfill the desires of Lord Krishna with respect and love. There are two stages, vaidhi, and raganuga. Vaidhi means obligatory, there may not be love or much feeling, but one executes bhakti out of dutifulness and obediance.
Gradually that brings the stage of raganuga, or spontaneous loving devotion which is our natural state of mind.
In Bhagavad-gita Lord Krishna asks four main things. "Always think of Me, worship Me, bow down to Me, and become My devotee, in this way you will come to Me."
In this day and age the specific core practice of Krishna bhakti is to chant or sing the Hare Krishna mantra, and to generally hear and repeat the glories of Lord Sri Krishna. Especially performed before His most merciful Manifestations as Lord Chaitanya and Lord Nityananda.
The complete science of Krishna bhakti can be found in "Bhakti-Rasamrta-Sindhu" by Srila Rupa Goswami.
