Highlights
Pet care experience
Bed & Breakfast for your baby 💕
I began dog sitting to make my own money when I was in the fifth grade. The first two dogs I used to sit with after school everyday were two cocker spaniel rescues that began my love and appreciation for rescuing my own pets ❤️. Here at home I have a 9 year old Chiweenie and a senior mini dachshund. I grew up with a Great Dane and used to house sit with two Dobermans, however, I prefer to open my home to small or medium dogs only to keep my babies comfortable 😊. I know how difficult it is to find safe and trusted care for your pet when you need to travel for work or take a vacation, and this is why I decided to open my home to your pets, so that you can have peace of mind that your dog will be treated like family while they are here. Reach out with any questions 😊. I look forward to hosting your baby ❤️

Ratings and reviews
Took such care of my little man. Sent lots of pictures of him having fun too. Would definitely recommend.
Kristen was awesome. Her home is perfectly suited to take care of our pets. Also her fiancé is there for a second set of eyes to keep our loved ones safe. She even took my 70# pit bull for walks which is no easy task. No other sitters I’ve had bothered to do that they just let them out into the fenced in backyard. Kristen took pictures and sent them to me daily so I could see that my fur baby was happy. I highly recommend Kristen, she’s a great sitter!
Kristen is super easy to talk to. She has two dogs of her own and a good size backyard for the dogs to run around in. She sent me pics every day and updates when needed. I will definitely book her again.
Kristen updated me with pictures often, and Birdie came back healthy and content. I'm excited to discover her and will use her again!
Kristen was great with our dog Rico. She was reliable, professional, caring, and reasonably priced. . Communication prior booking and throughout his stay was very prompt. We definitely would book again with her.
My apologies for the delayed review. Thanks again for taking care of Boomer!!! The pictures were great and I could tell he had a great time. Much appreciated!!!

Schedule
I work in healthcare, which gives me flexible hours and full days off. On days off I am usually home doing schoolwork online. Availability will be restricted to my days off so that I am available to care for your pets needs (playing, frequent bathroom breaks, separation anxiety, etc.)
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I have a large fenced yard that my dogs and other dogs I have boarded love!! I have a small home that will be available to your dog to free roam, my dogs love to lay on the couches and there are plenty of blankets for the littles that like to burrow 😊. I have experience in crating dogs for the evening but it is not a requirement to stay here.
Pets
A typical day
This depends on your pet! I have a spacious yard for your dog to run around and blow off steam. I also enjoy taking my dogs for walks around the neighborhood or at the local parks. I also like a couch potato dog (like my two 😉) to snuggle on the couch or in one of the 3 living room beds 😊
