Hi! My name is Kris and I am originally from Boston but live in Los Angeles, CA. I attended NYU and graduated in 2013. I have owned a dog for the majority of my life, since I was 8-years-old. We have had 2 dogs (not simultaneously), both having been/are bichonpoos (half bichon frise and half mini poodle.) I absolutely ADORE dogs and I miss having one, so I thought this was a good way to earn extra income, spend time with dogs, and help people out! I love going outside and going for walks & hikes, so I would absolutely be walking your dog for long periods of time, with the knowledge and know-how of caring for them in the LA heat. Petting, caring for, and playing with dogs as well. I know how to bathe them, and I pay great attention to detail, so if there's any specifics required to take care of your dog, I'm your person! I am living in a studio where pets aren't allowed, so I can only petsit in the owner's home. That being said, your dog will be more comfortable, and I can take care of any housesitting as well such as caring for plants.
