Grad student who loves rescues

Pet care experience

My spouse and I rescued a beautiful pit mix a year ago and have been patiently training her ever since. We both grew up with dogs and have a particular fondness for their idiosyncrasies, energy, and affection. I have experience caring for all sizes of dogs, including my professor's three mini schnauzers and my parents' Australian shepherd, as well as administering oral and topical medication, feeding dogs with special diets, and managing behavioral problems. Since I am currently working on a PhD, I have an irregular work schedule but can take clients when I am not teaching or in class. I enthusiastically support the adoption of rescue dogs and hope that my services can make that process accessible to more people. I can't wait to meet your dog!

Kristen is a dedicated dog owner. She loves all dogs and treats them like they were her own children. She is exceptionally well researched on dog behavior and can be trusted to respond to your dog with respect and understanding. She understands the sacrifices she must make to care for her own dog, and has always been up to the task. You won't find a more conscientious dog lover than Kristen. I highly recommend her.
