Love is found at the end of a leash

Pet care experience

Hi! So, a bit about me I’m 33, currently a sophomore at Johnston & Wales University pursuing my bachelor’s in business. I am a single parent raising two beautiful girls ages 14 and 5. I’ve had pets all my life, my first best friend was my German Shepard, Onyx. She solidified my future in a way, she passed from cancer and I’ve been on a “save all dogs” mission ever since. I have no criminal history, nor any driving infractions. I can provide personal and professional references as well as a background check. I currently have a German Rottweiler Max 5, A pit bull Zeus 2, and a Shih Tzu Frankie 14. Let’s not forget Mr. Fat cat. My Goal is to open my own ruff house upon the completion of my degree. I have some amazing ideas that will come to fruition hopefully sooner than later. My schedule is flexible excluding 7am-9:30am and 2pm-3:30pm Monday-Friday During the school year. I’m lenient regarding cancellations. Life happens, I will never charge you for a service I haven’t provided. I do not charge for extra pets, provided I can complete tasks in the same time frame. I do offer light house keeping services which is optional. Price is reflected in extended stay option. Ex, I am providing a 30minute drop in visit, I will stay an additional 15-20 minutes to sweep, load/dishwasher, wipe down surfaces, vacuum etc Through my own experiences I’ve gained knowledge on a multitude of K-9 information from behavioral, diet, pain management and so on. Exercise is so important for our dogs at all stages of life. Proper Exercise and Diet can add years to your pet’s life.

Kristen treated my cat Jude so well while I was gone over the holidays. She even brought him little toys on Christmas! I could tell from the pictures and updates that he was very happy and content. She was flexible with me and my schedule as well. I recommend Kristen!

To Whom this may concern, I am writing this letter on behalf of Kristen York. I have known Kristen for over 10 years personally and and as her college professor.

Information Kristen Y. would like to know about your pet

I love all dogs. I'd like to know of any behavioral triggers. Any restrictions in diet, allergies, medical conditions. Aggressions towards male/female dogs. Aggressions towards children as well as short medical history, neutered/spayed, vaccinations. Any special preferences ie trainning reinforcement, sticking to your routine etc

A typical day

Owners have some options when comes to exercise. Swimming is a great form of exercise. I have a above ground pool, and puppy life jackets in all sizes. My Rottweiler has hip dysplasia and aquatic therapy has been crucial in keeping him fit without putting any pressure on his joints. I also have a bicycle with a enclosed carrier. I use it for max or Frankie who is too old to walk but enjoys the fresh air on a nice bike ride.
