Pet care experience

I grew up with dogs my whole life. I’m a veteran dog owner with over 30 years of experience walking and caring for my own dogs as well as friends neighbors. While I am Not afraid of dogs of any size, I understand there needs to be some finesse to gain the trust of any animal. I will respect their space an boundaries, and eventually they will look forward to seeing my on their day to day basis!

I will start off by saying in the past I have always had family come in from out of town to watch my Golden Bella because she can be a lot at times. I was gonna board her but worried about the care she would get. I googled pet care and this app came up. I typed in my zip code and tons of names in my area came up. Krissy was #1 with tons of perfect reviews. We set up a meet and great to make sure our dogs were a perfect match. We felt so comfortable from the 1st minute we contacted her. We dropped off our Golden Bella the am of our vacation. We started getting pictures and messages 1 hour in. Bella had a restless 1st night as she has never been away from home. Krissy sleeped with Bella on the couch (she sleeps on our couch every night) to make sure she felt loved and comfort. After that Bella made herself at home. We got pictures all day at different times. She clearly had a better vacation then we did. I am so happy that we have found someone that loves our dog as much as us. She takes the time to make sure they feel love and are comfortable. I never have to worry about future trips. My Bella found a 2nd family. She even wrote out a thank you note with homemade dog treats ♡ No need to look any further for a dog sitter. Message Krissy you wont look any further. The rover app made it all so simple.

Krissy is great! She’s very caring and understanding with Blu. Blu is a 50 lb lab mix, who is sweet but tugs on the leash at times. This doesn’t bother Krissy and she works with him. She sends pictures throughout the day. She gives updates as needed throughout the day and at pick up. She’s absolutely wonderful. Blu will spend more days with Krissy for sure. Highly recommend her.

Safety, trust & environment

I have two dogs, Bowie who is a pit bull mix and Brutus a senior miniature dachshund. My yard is fully fenced so they will have plenty of room to run around safely and freely. My dogs are friendly to other pets, but if your dogs are apprehensive I have experience with slow and safe introductions. I have kennel trained my dogs when they were young, but now they no longer need them. I am comfortable with anything that makes my clients (and their fur babies) more comfortable.

Information Krissy D. would like to know about your pet

It’s important for me to know what your dogs temperament is- some dogs take a bit of time to warm up while others are friendly from the get-go. Of your dog has any tells or things they really don’t like, I’d like to know them early!

A typical day

My sons and I love to play fetch with the dogs- we have plenty of room to run around in our yard! Whatever gets the dogs (and my kids!) tuckered out :)
