Animals love me and I love them!

Pet care experience

As a lifelong dog and cat lover, I have always had pets in my life. My pets include terriers to Rottweilers and cats - each one has brought joy to our family. I am happiest when caring for my fur family members. I am a trained and longtime volunteer at the local animal shelter as a dog walker and foster mum. A highlight of our home is that someone is around almost all the time. It is a busy home with lots of animal interaction. The yard is fenced and secure! I would gladly send daily updates to re-assure the pet owner how their dog is doing! My favorite activity is walking and inclement weather does not deter me, the dogs will get exercise and fresh air! I enjoy young dogs, senior dogs and the dog that has lots of energy. They are all my favorites. Currently, we do not have any dogs at home, so the boarded dog will get all of our attention.

Opie had a great time at Kirsti's house! She was easy to communicate with, responded quickly, and sent pictures throughout the weekend. She made sure Opie was comfortable and asked lots of questions to get to know him. They have a great fenced backyard!

Kristi and her family were great! We always feel comfortable leaving our pup with them. She provided daily updates and pictures to let us know how Roo was doing. Thank you again!!

Kirsti and her husband, Vince, were fantastic. They took such great care of our senior dog. Kirsti has a lot of knowledge about animals, and she asked me a lot of questions to make sure our dog felt comfortable. They have a really nice fenced yard. She sent me pictures every day! I hope to be able to use Kirsti the next time we travel.

Information Kirsti W. would like to know about your pet

Each dog has a personality, it would be great to know a little about the dog before they stay with our family. Any breed works in our home. I have experience with both small and very large dogs.

A typical day

My favorite walks are in Normandy Park, where there are plenty of sidewalks. Depending on the dog, I can do a flat walk or hit the hills for some cardio! Each walk is about 45 minutes. A short neighborhood walk is always a great option. I do love to throw a ball to dogs if they like to play fetch. If not, I am happy to just spend time brushing them or petting them!
