Hi! Can I pet your dog?

Pet care experience

I am extremely comfortable with all animals, including bathing and administering medications. I have friendly 4-year-old a yellow lab mix named Ozzy. He is high energy and always wanting to play. We love to go to the off-leash dog park every afternoon to run the trails and play in the creek. I also love to take him to all the local dog-friendly business in the area. If your dog is not keen on other animals, Ozzy can always go to his grandparents to reduce any stress. I love to photograph pets so if you enjoy receiving picture updates of your pets, I can certainly do that. I'm a huge animal lover and don't care one bit about dog hair, drool, dirt, or what have you. I have a soft spot for the senior/geriatric pups. I just want them to be happy and have good days. I have plenty of experience pet-sitting for friends and family and can provide references. I would love to make friends with your dog! *I am fully vaccinated for COVID-19 and will comply with any health and safety requests.*

Kristen is the absolute best choice for watching your dogs. She provides detailed updates and an abundance of pictures, keeping you fully informed about how they're doing. I highly recommend her—she’s truly exceptional. I’ll definitely be rebooking her whenever she’s available!

I like to stick to your pet’s normal routine to keep them comfortable and safe. I will walk them &/or play with them and match their energy levels.

Information Kristen T. would like to know about your pet

What is your dog’s normal daily schedule? What is your dog’s normal activity level? If your dog has any particular behaviors, allergies, dietary needs that I need to pay attention to. If your pet has any sort of impairments, mobility, pain, or medical issues. Does your dog experience any form of anxiety? Does your dog have any food aggression or other kind of aggressive behavior? I’m comfortable with dogs who have behavioral problems but any information you can provide in advanced will be helpful. Any special toys or blankets they are bonded to would be helpful, as well. I let dogs on my furniture but if you don’t want your dog getting on the couch please let me know.

A typical day

Ozzy and I go for multiple leashed walks around town, trail walks. We also love any opportunity we get to be off leashed. We have a wonderful 10 acre off leash dog park in our town that we go to weekly. If we're not playing outside, we spend a good amount of time hanging out on the couch together.
