Pet care experience

Dog Lover, Bully Breeds Welcome

Hi there, my name is Kristen and I have a slight dog obsession. November 2024 started year four of me owning and operating a pet care company that is listed as an LLC in Ohio, and I have loved every single second of it! While on a walk your dog will be my sole focus. I will be sure to select a different route (if possible) during each walk to help them get familiar with their area, but to also help stimulate their brain with the different scents. If you have multiple dogs that need to be walked separately, for any reason, I will rotate my routes so that each dog is exploring a different area instead of where their fur sibling just was. I am happy to go as fast paced, or as leisurely as Fido wants to take our time together. My typical drop-in (play date) visit consists of the following: enter and greet your beloved furkid who will be totally excited to see me (hello treats!- only if it's okay with you first), and then take them outside to potty. While outside I am happy to play fetch, or any other activity they're interested in. Once we come back in I check the water/food situation, and am happy to take care of any medical needs that may be required at this time from giving pills to injections. There's time for a snuggle, or a game, and then it's one last potty break before I head out for the morning or afternoon. I send detailed Rover cards after every visit, and will include as many photos as possible.

Kristen was wonderful with our fur babies. She went over and above to make them happy. It is wonderful to have someone you can totally trust . I highly recommend Kristen.

Kristen was excellent. Took care of every detail, communicated, and loved my dogs just as I do. I never worried a moment while I was gone; totally confident Goose & Charlie were well cared for! I highly recommend Kristen and will definitely be using her again.

Kristen is great with my dogs, I especially love the pictures and rover reports of how they are doing. She is always energetic, happy, and willing to help me with behavioral problems when they arise. I would highly recommend Kristen to my family, friends, and coworkers!

Kristen is amazing. She goes above and beyond to communicate and make sure your pet is as happy as can be. We feel so much more af ease knowing she is checking our old pit bull. I would recommend her to anyone!

Kristen is wonderful and everything we could have hoped for. She is very communicative and you can tell she cares a lot about doing a good job. She sends so many details and photos of their time together. I love it! What a great experience and we will be booking her regularly!

A typical day

I am a big believer in enrichment style playing and walks. If you’re near a park (and give permission) I’m happy to go on some “sniffie” walks to stimulate your dog’s brain and senses in some place they may not go every single day. I also like playing fetch, hide and seek and treat finding games with my own dogs. I’m happy to help enrich your dog by doing these types of games/walks with them too.

I prefer knowing about a dog’s medication needs ahead of time so I can make them as comfortable as possible during our time together. I also like knowing about how your dog handles being on a leash, as well as greeting other dog’s while on a leash so I can make sure we have fun, and safe, walks together.
