Dog-loving mama!

Pet care experience

I'm currently in a pet-free home with my kiddos and have lived with dogs for much of my adult life. I'm a massage therapist and love giving pups a little TLC with energy therapy and light massage. They love it! The dog you see in my photo is KC. She was a rescue dog who was with us for six years and needed lots of training, support and care. Please note I take 3 walking clients per day but only 1 boarder at a time.

Kris was amazing and was so helpful and went the extra mile while I was away. Took Penny to her grooming appointment and kept her an extra day to help with my schedule. She also updated me when Penny wasn’t feeling well and took her to the vet and made sure she got the care she needed. I definitely recommend her as a sitter!

Kris was a great sitter! She was easy to work with and was happy to do a meet-and-greet beforehand. During his stay, Scooby had some tummy troubles the first couple of days with her, and she was calm and even called his vet to see if there was anything else she should do or look out for. He came home happy and SO well brushed. Thank you for taking great care of him!

Information Kris A. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if your dog has any preferences, their personality with other dogs, what their typical routine looks like and if they know commands.

A typical day

I love doing a long morning and evening walk, where I am happy to bring treats for dogs who are working on walking manners. A trip to the dog park mid-day is scheduled for dogs who like socializing and exercise. For older dogs or more timid dogs, I offer a walk mid-day. those I can also do training throughout the day if your pup is building skills.
