Highlights
Pet care experience
I'll love them like my own!
🩷🦴The Pink Leash LLC🦴🩷 The friendly dog sitter for 10+ years now! Our pups name is Reef, we adopted him in March of 2024 on our honeymoon in Kauai, Hawaii! We do have a kitty cat as well, Millie! Growing up I was always surrounded by animals of all kinds, and I truly haven't met one I didn't love. I've had everything from Raccoons to Chinchillas and everything in-between. I am very comfortable around dogs, and am not afraid to interfere if ever needed, and I know the appropriate way of going about introductions, feeding times etc. I want your pups to feel safe, loved and get to have fun and play with my boy Reef! That's why I try to match your schedule/routine as much as possible! So please feel free to share your typical routine for your pups at home. I like to let dogs have individual playtimes, but I do often do open play especially outside when the weather is nice! I love to let the dogs play together, and get into trouble as a team LOL. If you are not comfortable with your pups being around other dogs (besides my pup Reef) please feel free to let me know at the time of booking so I can be sure I have a space setup for them & ready to respect your wishes! I have a space designated for pups with crates for those that are crate trained. I also have an extra bedroom with a futon and doggy beds for those that are not used to being in a crate, but may need to be secure while we are away. -- I will send updates & photos throughout the booking as well, as I know how hard it is to leave your babies!

Bailey loves it there.
Kristen took amazing care of my girls! So easy to communicate with and I felt so comfortable with them in her care! Will Definitely use Kristen again!
First time using Rover, we couldn’t be more thrilled! It felt like family was watching our baby. Our dog had an amazing time! Kirsten was amazing, she made the whole process easy! Thank you for taking care of our baby!

Kirsten was great! She was very communicative and made me feel at ease with dropping our furbabies off. We will definitely be using her again!

Schedule
Since I'm home full-time, my pet care responsibilities are seamlessly woven into my day. I have a very consistent daily routine that ensures my pups get all the attention and exercise they need. My routine generally includes: Morning/Afternoon Fitness: Going to the gym, which often brackets a dedicated time for walking or playing with the dogs right before or after. Play and Interaction: I make sure to have several sessions throughout the day for playing either inside or outside (depending on the lovely weather). Plenty of Love: Above all, they get plenty of love and cuddles throughout the day! Being home allows me to keep a predictable schedule that suits their needs perfectly.
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I have a 6 foot wooden privacy fence that we inspect very frequently to ensure it's very secure! I also have cameras on the front and back of my home for extra security/peace of mind! Although I normally care for multiple pets at a time, they are NEVER left together unsupervised, however we do alot of supervised playtimes!! I have a 8 year old Pitbull/Catahoula named Reef! We adopted Reef in March of 2024 on our honeymoon in Kauai, Hawaii! We do have a kitty as well, Millie! Who will appear on occasion but she is so used to dogs at this point she pretty much ignores them! I’m open to dogs & kitties of any age! My husband and I have made a space in our basement designed around caring for your animals! Its the ideal space for those pups who tend to get anxious at night or when home alone and need to be in there crates. There is a Google Home in the room that is turned on with calming music to help them feel calm & comfortable! I have a camera in that room as well that detects any motion (people or pets) & sound and it alerts my phone directly! I can watch them on the live feed at any point as well! Its the perfect space if the weather is bad, or there are fireworks or any loud noises as it is very sound dampening. So please know your baby is safe & comfortable! That being said, they will not be kept in there crates 24/7. They will be allowed free roam of my home/yard and access to all the toys they could desire while we are home and can supervise! We love having everyone's pups over to play with & so does Reef! If you are not comfortable with your dog being out with others, please let me know at the time of booking! I am able to watch multiple pets in my home from the same family, or different families! Each pet can be secure in there little safe space crates (which I am able to provide so you do not have to bring yours!) I vacumn, wipe down, and disenfect every crate between pups to ensure everyone stays happy & healthy! Please know that I understand how hard it is to leave your babies, and I will do everything I can to make sure they are comfortable and content while they are with me!
Pets
A typical day
I have a large fully fenced in backyard with a large tree for shade on those warmer days, and a covered pergola, I always leave a water bowl underneath it that is refilled every morning as well. I also have a doggy pool I set up for the dogs that like to play in it, unlike my dog & a cute little doghouse for honestly no reason as I dont think ive ever seena dog go into it... lol. There's always approximately 10 toys in my yard at all times that I find when mowing LOL, so I can assure they have plenty of things to keep them entertained outside! My neighborhood has sidewalks throughout for enrichment walks for those pups who are used to them (when it isnt to hot/cold)! There is a large toy basket in the living room pups have access to when were stuck inside! There is also a toy basket upstairs & in the basement!
