They're all good dogs <3
Pet care experience
Long-time dog lover; Trained in Cat and Dog First Aid (American Red Cross) I've loved dogs my whole life but was never allowed to have one as a kid. I've been making up for lost time as an adult, caring for furry friends and family for short durations while their humans have traveled, as well as long durations during their humans' health issues. I now also have my own adult dog that I have trained since he was a puppy. I prioritize with learning your dog's unique needs and personality while giving them the same affection and patience I give my own pup. [Unfortunately, I am unable to care for cats because of allergies.]
Reviews
Kristen has taken care of my dogs for the last 7 years. When Peanut and Butters were with her I knew they were just as safe as being with me. You cannot find anyone better to care for your pets.
About Kristen R.
Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
I meet-and-greet with new clients to discuss their pet's specific needs before our first walk or drop-in visit. While I typically only accept same-day bookings from established clients, please message me if you are in a bind. I am trained in Cat and Dog First Aid through the American Red Cross in the unlikely case that an emergency arises.
Information Kristen R. would like to know about your pet
Do please let me know if your dog has any dietary or medical restrictions (e.g. no dairy treats or no jumping movements), as well as if they have any preferences of favorite treats, toys, games, or walking habits.
A typical day
Enrichment is so important for dogs. For walks, I make sure we get plenty of stimulating sniff breaks, and for drop-ins we make sure to play in a way that is appropriate for your dog mentally and physically.

Availability
I am a semi-retired science researcher and educator. I have plenty of flexibility during the weekday daytime to walk or drop-in care for your pet.
