Safety, trust & environment

My husband and I have used Rover ourselves, so I know firsthand how stressful it can be to leave your 4-legged family member in the hands of a human you don’t know. I look forward to spending quality time with your pooch or kitty, while doing whatever I can to ease any nervousness or concerns you may have. I’m mature, responsible, reliable and conscientious. Your pet will be safe and loved.

Information Cindy K. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if your pet has any special needs or behaviors that will help make our time together good quality time. What works for positive reinforcement? For dogs: How are they on leash? How do they typically respond to other dogs and external stimuli (e.g., Squirrel!). Do you prefer that they don't greet other dogs or people? For cats: Any special toys or games? Do they like being petted or not so much? Anything you can share about your pet will help me make this a good experience. I'm ready for anything! 😀 We can discuss all this in an initial (free) meet & greet.

A typical day

I'll adapt to your dog or cat's energy level and needs. I can throw a ball until your dog is tired out or simply pet and snuggle with them. Tell me where you're most comfortable for me to walk your dog; we can take it slow or fast. For your kitty, we can play, hang out together or I can give them space - whatever they want.

Pet care experience

I live a simple life in the woods in the Beaver Bay/Silver Bay area of northeastern Minnesota with my husband and our sweet pooch Luna. Luna is an 11-year-old rescue who has been part of our family for over 8 years. I grew up with dogs and have always had dogs as an adult (I should say they've had me!). I also have 3 sweet grandkitties named Greg, Janet and Billy. I look forward to bonding with your pet(s)! Check out my reviews; you'll see that people and their pets have trusted me and been happy with my services. 😀

Cindy did a wonderful job taking care of our three, very different pups while we were out of town for a wedding. She kept us regularly updated with stories and great photos and asked questions when needed. Left our house tidy as well. Our dogs seemed happy to have her company for the weekend :)

Cindy took excellent care of our Senior cat Dempsey. She sent us excellent notes and photos and made us feel comfortable that he was doing just fine while we were away. We have nothing but great things to say about Cindy!
