Loving, Fun Home for Your Pet

I’ve had pets most of my life and absolutely love them. Animals often gravitate to me and I’m frequently a favorite caregiver! I‘m very responsible while also very playful and snuggly! Your dog will become part of the family and get a lot of attention! I also have 2 kids - a 20 yo son who goes to college and 17 yo daughter - who love interacting with dogs.

I recommend booking with Kristen! Kristen took my dog, Winnie, on many adventures and shared photos throughout the stay.

Kristen took great care of our Ollie! She was attentive to his needs, sent photos / videos with updates daily, and was overall wonderful to work with. We felt at ease with Ollie in her care.

Kristen was great! Clearly very good and comfortable with dogs and made my pup feel at home almost instantly. Followed directions well and asked questions to make sure she understood what to do and sent lots of cute pictures and updates! Very communicative and accommodating as well. Will definitely be using again in the future :)

Wow wow wow. Kristen is absolutely fantastic and I could not recommend her enough. Our little dog had a blast with her - going on hikes, adventures and lots of long walks. She was completely wiped out in the best way when we picked her up after an extended boarding stay. Fantastic experience, care, and person!

I would like to say Kristen was perfect for my old spoiled shiatsu. Sadely, he has gone deaf and has some loss of site and has always had the same sitters his whole life. We took him on our road trip and need one night so we could attend a special concert in Colorado. Kristen was so accommodating, even had our little baby sleep with her since he was lost. She was perfect and I would highly recommend Kristen, and she will work with all your pets' needs. Thank you, Irma

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ We did a trial overnight stay before a longer booking we have coming up, and it couldn't have gone better. After losing our longtime dog sitter, we were looking for someone new we could trust, and we found exactly that. Kristen was fantastic - kind, personable, and clearly great with dogs. Even during a quick overnight stay, we received several check-ins, videos, and updates that showed how much fun our pup was having. The communication and care gave us complete peace of mind. We highly recommend her and are excited for our upcoming longer stay!

Safety, trust & environment

I love to be outside and am always up for a walk! We have a huge yard here so plenty of space to play. Im happy to take 3 miles runs at a park too if that’s a good fit for your pet!

A typical day

Depending in the size and capabilities of the dog, Im happy to take him/her on a run or walk! I have a membership at Bear Creek Lake Park and take dogs there along the coolness of the creek in the summer. I also will walk in the neighborhood!

Let me know if your dog has any special needs or quirks. I like to know his/her favorite games, eating and sleeping habits and typical routine. I know a new environment can be stressful for a dog, so I would love to know favorite calming techniques if needed.
