Hello! Foster mom to the rescue!

Pet care experience

Greetings! My name is Christy. I am an avid pet lover and have worked with several dog rescues as a foster mom, a home visit administrator and training & mentoring new people to the world of rescuing Animals. As well as having pets if my own. I have been a part of an organization where I was able to use my skills to work with dogs on a daily basis doing drop in care, and walking. I would love to learn about your family and fur babies & needs - work to my best ability to work with you. My experience has taught me the not just that animals our our pets they are family & deserve exceptional care. Yours in Service Christy K. Personalized Pet Services

Christy was great with our dog Buddy during her drop in. She was prompt and took excellent care of him. Again we really appreciate everything Christy does for us and Buddy!

We absolutely loved Christy! She and our new puppy Molly got along right away. She sends great rover cards with updates and keeps you informed always. We highly recommend her and are already re-booking!

Our pup, Scarlet, liked Christy right away when she walked in for the meet and greet - considering Scarlet is normally skittish and wary of strangers, that was huge. Christy is kind and outgoing and asked questions to learn more about Scarlet and what we were looking for. Each time Christy has come to check in Scarlet and take her for a walk she has sent a detailed explanation of how their time together went. Christy even goes the extra mile to give Scarlet treats and bowl of fresh water before she leaves. I feel comfortable and happy knowing that Scarlet looks forward to Christy visiting while I’m at work.

As a personal policy I only board one family at a time. **Meet & Greet is REQUIRED for boarding Other requirements: Your pet must be: - [ ] Dog Friendly - [ ] Kid Friendly - [ ] House Broken - [ ] Spayed/Neutered - [ ] All vaccinations up to date - [ ] Prefer Kennel Trained but not required **Pet information sheet will be provided to you to complete, vaccination records may be requested** Drop off Times - [ ] 10:00 am or after - Monday thru Sunday **Early morning drop offs prior to 10:00 am will be subject to a $10 fee. No drop offs before 7:00 am, if you need your pet boarded before 7:00 am, I ask that your pets boarding experience begin the day before.

I love to cuddle, pet, give kisses and assure them they have have a friend in me! It is helpful to understand what your pet does and does not like from playing to strange people, I use the yellow ribbon method of your dog is uncomfortable with strangers approaching. It’s a signal to others not to approach should your pet be anxious. I want to know habits, feeding times, ability to take long or short walks and know if they have had any on leash training. I pride myself in working with difficult dogs on a leash to teach them how to walk properly. I appreciate every single one of you for allowing me to care for your pets. I love what I do, my goal is to offer you and your pet a amazing experience. You’re enjoying your vacation, so why shouldn’t they enjoy theirs too? Yours in Service, Christy K.

A typical day

I enjoy walks to neighborhood parks, I will ensure they are safe, and cleaned up after. Most animals have their favorite toy and just love to play fetch in the backyard. Whatever you choose! I am willing to find local dog parks once you & I are comfortable they are ready to interact with other pets.
