Pet care experience

Pets are the best! Forever friends.

I've had a dog around me my entire life. I treat them like my babies, and they always receive the best care. I believe animals make us live longer by adding happiness to our lives, and I would be so thrilled to meet and take care of your little fur babies! I have never met a dog that I didn't like or that didn't like me. I am comfortable with all dogs (and cats), and will ensure their needs are met, while making sure they have fun too! I personally have 2 dogs (Biscuit and Gracie), who love to go on our daily walks! I look forward to working with you and your fur babies in the future! Your pups will be in great hands!

Kristena is fantastic! She took wonderful care of my dog while we were away. She was communicative throughout sending updates and photos so I always knew my dog was happy and comfortable. Reliable, caring, and easy to work with. Highly recommend Kristena to anyone!

This is the first time using a dog walker. I was a little apprehensive but Kristena has been wonderful. Hazel is loving the extra attention.

Farley loves her! She’s very reliable and really tires him out which is not easy to do with him. She also doesn’t let him jump up or pull.
