Your personal pet nanny.

Pet care experience

I have worked as a kennel attendant, veterinary assistant as well as a veterinary technician for the last 15 years. I am currently pet sitting and dog walking part time for a local business but looking to pick up some of my own clients at a more reasonable price scale for them. I am available for your pet vacation visits or daily dog walks in Rugby/Barracks, Downtown, Belmont, Greenbrier and Dunlora areas. I form bonds with my clients pets to ensure their comfort level when you are not there with them. Lots of play time, socialization, elimination and exercise time is given with each visit. I am also sensitive to the very different needs of cats. I have served as a cat socializer volunteer at CASPCA for 3 years.

Kris house sat for our dog this weekend. She did an amazing job of keeping us updated, caring for our dog and left the house better than we left it. This was our second time working with Kris and we will surely use her in the future!

We were in a bind on relatively short notice attending an out of town funeral and Kris put us right at ease. She was wonderful with Marleigh and she was a great house guest too!! Kris, thank you!!

Very glad Kris was able to step in and watch our cats while we were away! She updated us at every visit, let one of cats indulge in her obsession with handbags, and just generally kept a watchful eye.

Kris was reliable and great with our energetic dog. We will definitely be rebooking with her again for our next trip.

Safety, trust & environment

I can't have your pets stay with me in my home since I adopted a reactive male resident cat who hates dogs! He's currently learning to accept his own housemate.

Information Kris P. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if your dog has any aggression or trigger issues. We can work on this if I am aware of it upfront. Also if there are any allergies to foods or treats.

A typical day

I love being able to give your dog a break during the day to be outside getting exercise, bathroom breaks and one on one bonding time. I work with cats on their level of comfort as a calming or fun playmate.
