Pets

Very active, have fenced in yard

Pet care experience

I am very active (run, hike with dogs); I exercise daily. I have had 2+ dogs for over 25 years and treat my pets like family members (my dogs are my kids!) I have a very flexible schedule, which makes popping out during the day to walk the dogs very easy. I have a big car, and can take my dogs to local park, trails, etc... I have boarded friends' dogs (and cats) for years, and my animals are very friendly and welcoming to new doggie friends. (I have boarded a friend's Frenchie and Boxer for over a week at my home on numerous occasions over the years...they love my two labs). I absolutely love all animals and will treat your pets as well as I treat my own dogs.

Kristen was great . I felt at ease knowing my pup would be well loved during his stay . Her home is so dog friendly and well equipped . My dog was cleaner coming home than when I dropped him off , lol! He was exercised a lot and came home nice and calm and hungry ! ( picked him up at dinner time) . You can clearly see Kristen is an animal lover . She also has her own pets , so my pup was never bored or lonely ! Highly recommend Kristen , prices very reasonable.

Ladoo had a great stay with Kristen and Jen! They are such loving people, so I know Ladoo was in great hands. We’ll definitely book more stays with them in the future!

Kristen and Jen are wonderful! Ladoo had a great time staying at their place and played very well with their dogs.
