Puppies & Special Needs Welcome!
Pet care experience
I have had dogs my whole life and have experience with all sizes, from 90 to 9 pounds! I love all animals, from dogs to horses to reptiles! I provide reliable, professional care for your pet. I specialize in puppies and dogs with special needs, as I have cared for many puppies and dogs with disabilities such as deafness and blindness. Currently, I provide drop-in visits and dog walking services. I have 1 dog, a rescue Tibetan Spaniel. I have used Rover as a customer before, so I understand what you'll be expecting as a pet parent. I provide thorough updates on my visit with your pup, including lots of photos! If you want trusted, reliable care, please don't hesitate to reach out. Please see my calendar for availability.
Reviews
Kristen did a great job helping out with my blind dog, and sent all sorts of pictures so I know all my dogs has a great time with her
Kristen helped me walk 5 dogs and I knew instantly she was the right choice because she was on it when one of her puppies picked up trash. Another time she dove right into his mouth unafraid to get whatever he grabbed and prevent him from swallowing it. As soon as she put the leash on she became their pack leader and the dogs liked her right away!
Kristen was super easy to work with. She did 4 drop in visits for my 2 dogs while I went to my friend’s wedding and sent me pictures of everything, feeding them, playing with them, and letting them out for potty. I wanted the drop in visits because I didn’t want to deal with my dogs having to be around other dogs and I wasn’t gone long. I was very happy to find someone willing to go to my home twice in one day and then I was able to get my friend to do the final visit of the day after she got off work so it worked out perfectly. Kristen was even flexible about changing the time of the first visit due to a last-minute change of plans. Will definitely choose her again in the future if I go out of town again.
Kristen boarded her horse on the property where I lived in my tiny house. She took care of my blind dog whenever I needed. On the day I had to send him over the rainbow bridge, it was Kristen that took him to the vet when he was having difficulty breathing. I met them there and she stayed with me while the vet had to put him down. I will never forget her compassion and caring that day. Kristen also helped take care of my current dog until I moved out of state. She is wonderful with dogs.
