Recently Retired/Flexible Schedule

Pet care experience

Hi! My name is Kris and I am a recently retired Police Detective and thrilled that I now get to spend my time with my one true love, caring for animals. I have been surrounded by animals my entire life and have spent years caring for my own pets, as well as the pets of family and friends. I have also spent years helping to care for and find homes for (usually my home) many stray animals that I rescued during my time as a Police Officer. As a pet parent, I was always leery about trusting people in my home and allowing anyone else to care for my fur babies. I made it my mission that when I retired, I would offer other pet parents a solution, someone they could trust to come into their home and care for their pets, just as they would! Whether I'm doing a drop-in visit to play, a visit for a walk or pet sitting, I will always treat your pet with the love, care, safety and supervision just as I would with my own pets! I look forward to meeting you and your pet(s)!

Nelson had a very nice and relaxing day with Kris. It was very hot outside so I didn't want him walked, and really just wanted him to chill inside. Her home is very dog-friendly and she has a lovely backyard.

Kirs has been an absolute life saver!!! I have a pug with special needs. He has a broken leg and is restricted on his activity. He is a very hyper pup and it can be hard to keep him calm and off the furniture but Kris does such a great job with him. She is so calm, trustworthy and friendly. I was so worried about leaving him alone with anybody but with Kris I have no worries. She is just as much as a dog lover as I am. She was able to administer Gunners medications with no issues and cares for him as if he were her own. Kris is wonderful!! So happy to have found somebody I trust to take care of my fur baby.

Kris has cared for our fur babies for many years while we travel or have long work days. Kris is kind, compassionate and extremely trustworthy! When she moved from Colorado to Arizona I was absolutely devastated, but we quickly realized the value in flying her to Colorado for our family vacations. Kris has a special way with animals and instantly forms a special bond as if they were her own. The peace of mind that comes with knowing our animals are in the best care is absolutely priceless and allows us to breathe easy without the worry that often comes with leaving your animals.

I have used Kris for many years - she is the absolute best and I can't recommend her enough! I have never felt as comfortable leaving our girl alone as I do leaving her with Kris. We were heartbroken when Kris moved to Arizona, so we decided to fly her out to Colorado when we travel because we just couldn't find anyone else that fit our standards. Our dog has a strict medication routine daily and Kris has done an outstanding job making sure everything is given on time and correctly. Kris is kind, compassionate, trustworthy and has an absolute gift with animals. Our girl loves Kris so much and it's the best "peace of mind" knowing she's in amazing hands while we are away!
