Pet care experience

A story about my dog. Her name was JoJo and she was a beautiful black Labrador! I was walking by a grooming store that had an adoption centre next door. I went inside to look at the dogs and was interested in this black lab dog. The lady at the groomer said that this dog was abused and was very hesitant, hardly interacts with people and was scared. I decided to sit on the ground close by her and she decided to come over, lay down and put her head on my lap. I knew at that time that I didn’t choose this dog, that she chose me. I believe animals see good in people and can sense it. When it comes to anxious, nervous pets I am calm/patient and will make your pet feel comfortable!

Kristen is amazing. Our cats warmed up to her immediately and she reads their cues well to engage with them. She's very communicative and provides detailed summaries of her visits, which is very reassuring. Highly recommend Kristen!

Kristen was great! She was very communicative the whole time I was away! Lots of pictures and updates on feeding and how Jiji was doing. I really appreciate the time and care she showed with Jiji. I’ll be rebooking for sure!

Kristen did a fantastic job making sure our cats had great company and to follow our instructions. Kristen is very thorough and communicative. She went the extra mile and they are clearly very happy in her care. Highly recommend.

Kind, patient and consistent. Kristen is the fairy godmother for high energy weirdos like my pup.
