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 with my dog, Benji. Her two dogs were friendly and great playmates for Benji. He loves going to Kristen's house for all the fun time he gets to have. Kristen was communicative and kept us informed.

Kristen took fantastic care of our kitty while we were out of town. We very much appreciated Kristen's reliability, attention to detail, and above all, the many pictures that she sent of our baby :) Thank you so much!

Kristen was amazing! Definitely a dog lover and took great care of my Frenchie, Lola. I was worried about her with Kristen’s Golden and Lab, but she sent me videos of them playing together and Lola actually bossing them around! She took her to doggie playdates at Tufts and long walks around campus. Will definitely use her again.

Gus had the best time staying with his new friends. This stay was dog paradise. Can’t recommend Kristen enough.
