Pet care experience

I have been around and owned dogs my entire life. I can complete all the essentials of dog care: feeding, walking, playing, bathing/grooming, med administration, etc. I recently adopted a dog of my own, her name is Nala and she loves making new friends !

Good morning, In my opinion, there is no one more responsible and compassionate with animals than Kristine Swiatocha. I feel that with Kristine as a dog sitter, the dogs and owners alike, would not only have this service fulfilled but benefit from her attentiveness and wholehearted care. Thank you, -Jim Smith

I have known Kristine for over 20 years. She is notoriously the most responsible person in our friend group. Instilled with many guidelines growing up, she has continuously demonstrated that punctuality, honesty and kindness are integral values that she lives by. I was witness to her family getting a dog when she and her siblings were young and we grew up with her family dog until his passing into his elder years. Kristine is more than capable of caring for a dog/dogs of all ages. She understands that consistency and repetition are very important to a young dog’s upbringing but also has the patience to care for an older dog who might just need some company during the day. She has knowledge of different leash/harness types, is capable of assessing whether dog interaction with other dogs is wise and also has the energy to keep up with a dog who wants to run around the dog park. I have no doubt she will be an excellent Rover walker.

I have known Kristine for 13 years and she is extremely responsible and trustworthy. I have two French bulldogs that she has watched and taken amazing care of! I would highly recommend her!

Safety, trust & environment

Unfortunately, I currently live in an apartment complex so I do not think I will be able to have dogs in my home, however the complex has a great dog park available for play time and exercise !

Information Kristine S. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if your dog has any special needs or has any preferences. Please let me know if there are any obvious things your dog does not like for example being pet in certain areas, etc. I would just like to meet you and your dog and we can discuss exactly what your expectations are.

A typical day

I know that exercise is so important for young dogs and certain breeds. My complex offers a dog park for playing and activity! There are also several neighborhoods for street walking or hiking trails for the more adventurous pups ! That being said I also can care for the older dog taking them on short walks with lots of places to rest. I am always down to sit with a dog outside or walk them around, I’m a runner so if your dog is up to it I can do that as well. I also would love to play any games or with any toys that your dog may enjoy !
