We know how much you love your pet.

Pet care experience

I'll share plenty pics of your best bud as they run and explore the large fenced backyard, play in the puppy pool (don't get excited, it's just a baby pool lol) or just lounge around enjoying a snooze and a snuggle. I understand how much you love your furry family member and will do all I can to make them comfy during their stay. Experienced with dogs, cats, birds, iguanas, hedgehogs, and numerous furry little rodent friends (so ask about special rates for including your other babies too!) This neighborhood is extremely walkable and offers excellent pet-friendly businesses and patios to explore. Let's set up a time for a quick visit where you and your little buddy can sniff around to see if they'd like to vacation here with me!

Thank you, Kris!! You’re Buttercup’s favorite home away from home.

Kris has gone above and beyond to care for not only my golden doodle but my two little dogs as well. She’s over communicative which I and I’m sure many others who use the Rover app love. She’s caring and loves dogs! Couldn’t recommend a better person to watch my dogs while I’m away!

Kris is great with our Q. She is patient and caring for each and every dog. I can see Q likes her a lot.

Safety, trust & environment

Large, fenced in back yard offers plenty of room to run and explore. I will plan to accommodate what your pup is accustomed to at home as far as diet, exercise, sleeping arrangements, potty schedule and kenneling or no kenneling. My goal is to make their environment here as "familiar" as possible to what they have always known in their own home. When packing for your fur buddy's stay with me, please feel free to grab an old t-shirt you have worn or a towel or blanket that could offer some familiar and comforting scent while you are away. If they normally walk with a harness or special collar - please include that in their bag. Please pack just a little more food than you feel they will consume while they are here - in case of travel delays.

Information Kris R. would like to know about your pet

Please share any information about your pet's normal routine and/or special needs: Feeding schedule and/or dietary restrictions Medications Sleeping arrangements (kennel? dog bed? your bed?...) Home Alone arrangements (kennel? no kennel?) Exercise schedule and routine (how often/distance) (long lead on walks? heal?) Phobias/Reactions - separation anxiety? storm anxiety? food reactive? toy reactive? Command Words Reward System

A typical day

Does your pet love to terrorize squirrels or do they prefer to simply bask in a sunny window? Either way I will encourage their passion and/or past time right here at home! There are many close by (walkable) places to explore, including gardens and local coffee shops that offer dog friendly patios. An occasional "field trip" is not out of the question (unless your prefer to opt your baby out) with Forest Park and Grant's Trail within a short drive. For my most adventurous guests - I am an experienced paddle boarder and would LOVE to encourage a new "Paddle Pup" - so if that sounds good to you, please let me know and pack their pfd. :D
