Caring for 2 Dogs/Night⭐Fenced yard

Pet care experience

🐾 I only care for 2 families’ pups at a time so your pup can get the 1:1 attention they deserve 🐾 6+ years of professional pet care experience 🐾 Licensed & Insured 🐾 Fenced-in yard 🐾 Pet CPR & First Aid Certified I love Rover because I’m able to provide a home away from home! I send lots of pictures and updates to keep you in the loop with your furry friend and pride myself on being extremely reliable and responsive. I won’t leave you hanging and wondering. I treat each pet with the love and respect that I would my own because nothing is better than the peace of mind that comes with knowing your pet is in good hands! *PLEASE NOTE*: - All new boarding clients are required to book a trial stay prior to extended bookings. This allows me to assess your dog's temperament and ensure they're a good fit for a safe and comfortable stay. - For the safety and comfort of all pets in my care, l'm unable to accept dogs who have severe separation anxiety, are not fully potty trained, or show signs of aggression. - Unneutered male fee is $45/night

The afternoon trial went quite well and I will be hiring Kristen to keep Kojak safe and well over my vacation.

Kristan was AMAZING! She constantly sent pictures of my fur baby throughout the day and gave constant updates reassuring me that he was in good hands. I’m very picky when it comes to who watches my pup and I’m so glad that I found Kristan because she made the process so much easier leaving me with NO worries ! Thank you Kristan , me and Rylo appreciate you ! :)

Kristen did a great job with our 3 pups and was even willing to do a full-day doggy day care on short notice. Excellent communication, we'll definitely use her services again!

Safety, trust & environment

For boarding & doggy daycare: I only care for dogs from 2 families max at a time to provide a calm, homestyle setting. We have a doggy door and fully fenced in backyard for pups to run & play in. Whether your pup prefers to sleep on the couch or in their crate, we can accommodate it all. I have extensive experience with large dogs, senior dogs & puppies 🐶 Here, they are family! I have two small children who LOVE animals, as well, so pets must be kid friendly! For walks: 30 or 60 minutes long! I’ll always check the sidewalk with the back of my hand before beginning a walk for heat level in this Florida sun. Poop bags and water provided! Safety first, fun is second! I’m used to strong, large dogs and always stay in full control of your pup. Guaranteed to get that extra energy out! Drop-in visits: I treat each home and pet with respect as if it were my own. Pets will be fed, clean water will be given and play time will be had! I love cats, as well! I’ll make sure your furry friends are all taken care of while you’re away. Option to add-on a 15 minute walk available.

This is my full-time job and focus. I’m home all day with my 2 young children minus errands, school drop offs and pick ups. I love animals and feel honored to spend my time caring for them.
