A house is not a home without a dog

Pet care experience

I am retired military, love animals, and am looking to stay active. My availability for service is flexible to the customers needs. My dog Isabel accompanied me on most adventures throughout Alaska and recently passed. I have experience walking and/or sitting foa a variety of sizes and breeds over the past decade. I am offering to walk dogs for as little or as long as necessary, provided I have availability. I can drop by while you're at work to let fur babies out to potty or roll in the grass, even on short notice. I do not have a fenced yard, so house sitting would have to be at the owners location. Additional services, like bathing, are negotiable and would be on a case by case basis for an additional fee.

Kristen has done awesome with Roscoe. Super responsible and Roscoe doesn’t warm up to people easily but she was very patient with him and now he totally trusts her.

Kristin did an excellent job caring for my injured dog on short-ish notice. She came over for a meet and greet prior to her visits with him to make sure he was comfortable with her. She did more than the things I asked her to, and I would highly recommend her and hope to use her again someday!

Kristen has been very patient with my "special needs" dog Roscoe. He has fear aggression issues and it takes a long time for him to allow people to get close to him as a result. Kristen has been great at letting me know how the interactions are going when she visits in attempts to walk him for me and does not push him further than he is comfortable with.

Care in my home would only be case by case. Care in the pet's home depends upon fenced yards, doggy doors, food allergies, and owner preferences.

Information Kristen P. would like to know about your pet

I have no breed preferences, but I would like to meet your dog(s) to ensure we are compatible with each other and I know there commands.

A typical day

Each dog is different and I tailor my visits to best suit each individual dog needs as best I can with walks, exercise, snuggles and treats.
