I’m home - so you don’t have to be!
Pet care experience
Does your pup need a stay-cation? Whether it’s family, fun or work that takes you away from your precious ones, be confident that you have left them in good hands. If dogs could talk they would say that I’m a master pet-er, cuddler and treat giver. When your baby is under my care he/she will be treated like one of my own. My husband and I live in a nice home on 6+ acres with a pond and a fenced in yard. I’m a retired teacher so no one is ever left alone for more than a couple hours at a time. Potty breaks and playtime are always available - and I guarantee a welcoming, warm and comfortable setting where there’s always plenty of fresh water and puppy kisses! My overnight boarding rates are based on 24 hours of cuddles, playtime inside and out, (weather permitting), mealtime and continuous affection. I do offer a complementary 4 hour over lap (28 hours), but after that time you will be charged my doggy daycare rate, $30. Drop off and pick up times daily between 8am and 8pm, but will discuss “off” hours options. Have plans after work and can’t make it home? I’m also available on a per diem basis to come by your home to walk, feed, play with or just keep your four legged friend (s) company. Rates vary. I also can provide overnight care in your home if that works best for your family. Rates start at $80 which includes evening care starting around 7pm until 7am the following morning. If you don’t need overnight care, I do offer sunset and sunrise services. Contact me for details and rates. Please note I only care for one family at a time either in your home or mine and I never overlap my services. All services require an initial meet and greet which is complementary. Please contact me to discuss your individual needs.
Reviews
You will have nothing to worry about when leaving your dogs in the care of Kristen; in fact, your dogs may not want to come home with you! Kristen is a caring dog owner and will treat your dogs like they were part of her family. My husband and I appreciated the picture updates during our dogs' stay - you could clearly see how much they were enjoying themselves.
The best!
Kristen and Coco are the best!! The care our dogs receive while staying with Kristen couldn’t be better. We are so grateful.
Our dog had a great time as usual with Kristen. Lots of walks and playtime, plus he gets to snuggle up next to her at night. Kristen is excellent!

I only take care of one family at a time, so the care of your pup will be my only job during that time you have hired me for. We have a 6 acre gated property and safety is a priority.

To provide a home away from home environment and the best conditions for my dogs your fur-baby must be: People and dog friendly, not aggressive and house broken. Up to date on their vaccinations including rabies, parvo/distemper, and bordatella (canine cough) and fecal exam. Only except spayed or neutered dogs. In generally good health. Free of fleas and ticks. Dogs that are dropped off with these extra friends will be treated at their owner’s expense. I pledge to do my best to create and maintain a safe, healthy, and happy environment for all. I will not accept a dog that may pose harm to other dogs. For insurance purposes I cannot except any of the following breeds, or mixes of: Pit Bull Terriers Staffordshire Terriers Rottweilers German Shepherds Presa Canarios Chows Chows Doberman Pinschers Akitas Wolf-hybrids Mastiffs Cane Corsos Great Danes Alaskan Malamutes Siberian Huskies
A typical day
We have a large fenced yard and pond to play and swim. Some dogs just like to chill on the couch, and that’s ok too. I have two small dogs that are very welcoming and loving.
