Love for dogs & working experience

Pet care experience

I worked in a dog hotel as a caretaker during holidays and summers during the four years while going to college. Afterwards I worked at a different dog hotel for a year as a front office receptionist. I have experience taking care of dogs all shapes and sizes including giving medication, insulin shots, and special diets. I now currently work Monday-Friday but have a pretty flexible schedule which allows me the freedom to take care of dogs at your leisure. My husband and I have one very spoiled golden retriever , Flynn, who goes to work with me everyday. Flynn is full of energy and loves to play with dogs of all sizes but is still respectful towards older dogs who aren't interested in playing.

I have been super busy with work lately, and Kristen has been letting my pups out for 30 mins a few days a week! We had a meet and greet with Kristen a few days prior, and the pups instantly loved her! She is super nice and trustworthy. I love the pictures and updates when they check in! Great feature! She has been super flexible, and very reasonable on price. I will definitely continue to use Kristen for my pet needs. Highly recommend.

I had to find someone to keep my Labrador for an entire month while we were in between house closings. Kristen spent a lot of time at our meet and greet just letting us get to know her and make sure everyone felt comfortable. She kept me updated with pictures during the stay and was always prompt with answers. I wouldn't hesitate to leave Lady with her again at all. Lady came home happy and even a little more trim thanks to the play times with Kristen's golden!

Kristen has great experience with all sorts of pets since she worked for a pet boarder for several years. She always takes care of my dogs when I'm out of town and is very responsible and loving to them both. With her, I don't worry about leaving them even if there's medicine to be given or anything unusual going on.

Is your dog house-trained? Does he have a history of tearing up furniture or anything I need to be aware of before keeping them in my care?

I take my dog on walks around our neighborhood, take him to my dad's 6 acre house and let him run around and swim in the pool, and to the town's dog park.
