Availability

I teach at a technical college and am a personal trainer, working part-time from home and part-time out of the home. I'm often home for long hours during the day. My three kids are in public school, so dogs may have 1 to 4 dog-lovers in the home after 4pm.

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. A trip to the dog park mid-day is scheduled for dogs who like socializing and exercise. We have a local dog park a short drive away that has a fenced area for dogs who prefer not to socialize. I'm happy to care for dogs who prefer walking instead of dog parks.

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 thumbnail 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 is great! Wagyu loves having a family and a home to go to and I love getting updates on what he's up to while knowing he's in great hands :)

Kris accommodated a fairly last minute request to watch our dog. We’re very pleased with the communication and care she provided. Will definitely book again!

Kris was absolutely fantastic. I felt very comfortable leaving Cokes with Kris and her household. Would not hesitate to use again. Thank you so much!
