Flexible dog walker/sitter/lover!

Pet care experience

As an avid animal lover, I am always looking for ways to spend time with them. I recently switched from a career as a high school teacher to real estate, so this is the perfect way for me to fill my extra time. A bonus of my new career is that my schedule is very flexible. I am new to the professional dog walking/sitting world, but I have been caring for my own COVID puppy since 2020 and grew up my whole life with dogs and helping friends/family with watching and letting theirs out. I am confident that I will be able to help both you and your pooch be comfortable and happy!

Kristen is so great with dogs and we’ll definitely be hiring her in the future! She’s communicative, reliable and super sweet. I was worried my 2 would be too strong for her, but she handled them like a champ! Thank you!!

Safety, trust & environment

Since I have a dog who takes a bit of time to warm up to dogs (and sometimes never does), I’m looking to give care for dogs in your home only. I am also comfortable walking your dog, and have experience with my own reactive dog if that happens to be the case with yours.

Information Kristen M. would like to know about your pet

I prefer to meet with the dog and owner ahead of time so that they can talk me through any relevant information for caring for their dog.

A typical day

I love both walking and running with dogs. Im a big fan of allowing dogs to go on “sniffing walks” where they are allowed to stimulate their mind by taking time to smell the “roses”. I also love to play with dogs doing their favorite things - fetch, tug, etc. And of course I will shower them with love and lots of scratches!

Availability

My schedule is very flexible and it usually varies week to week. If I’m given enough notice I can pretty much make any date/time work for you and your pets. I can’t do weekly repeating walks/check-ins due to the nature of my other job, but am a great resource for random or more sparse needs!
