Highlights
Pet care experience
Intermediate training knowledge
After long days in a people-facing job, there’s nothing I enjoy more than spending my time off with animals. They’re the best company—and the best coworkers! I've lived all over the world and recently moved to Charlotte to support my son while he's in law school. I’ve cared for animals my whole life and am comfortable with all breeds and sizes. I have experience with senior pets, those needing special care or medications, and basic training. Over the years, I’ve: 🐾 Helped my blind husky thrive for 14 wonderful years 🐾 Trained a spirited chihuahua to follow hand signals 🐾 Raised a pitbull who is now a fully trained service dog 🐾 Shared my home with two cats who keep everything running on their terms! 📅 Availability: I work evenings, so I’m a great fit for pet parents with a flexible schedule. Most of my availability is in the mornings and afternoons—but I can occasionally accommodate evening visits depending on the day. Let’s chat to see if we’re a good fit!

I will respect whatever you need for your pet in your home. I am familiar with crate training if needed. I will be glad to follow any house rules you provide.
Ratings and reviews
Kristen is so great with our dog. She is reliable and on time for his walks and always gets his day started off on the right foot. We highly recommend her!
Kristen is so great with our boys Finn and Beau. They can be a bit reactive towards other dogs while on the leash and she gives great feedback after every walk on how she was able to redirect their attention and work towards correcting this behavior. She is such a big help for us while we work, would definitely recommend!
Kristen was great with Archie. She was on time, communicated well, and took great care of him!
Thank you so much Kristen! It is great knowing Bowie has someone consistent for mid day walks that he is happy to walk, play, and cuddle with! We always know he is in good hands with you and will book again soon!
My baby loves walking with Kristen! She took one time to warm up but now gets super excited when she comes! She follows directions and always loves on her before she leaves. Highly recommend Kristen!
Truly appreciate Kristen so much! She walked Bowie and played with him every day while we were away on Honeymoon and it was such a relief to know he was in her hands when we couldn’t be there! Thank you, Kristen!

I am currently available during the day, since I work in the evenings. If you would Ike to socialize your dog I can bring my dog, who is a trained service dog, with me to assist.
