Pets

Safety, trust & environment

I will keep them on their schedule as much as possible so that their routine is not disrupted. I also love to take hikes so with your permission, I will do that with them to ensure they get enough exercise to get their wiggles out. If we dont go on a hike, they will get at least two walks a day as long as the weather cooperates. They will have all the cuddles they can handle.

I have an elderly dog that I was anxious about leaving, but Kristi's experience and calm approach really made me feel better. She's extremely professional and took great care of my dog.

Kristi was an awesome sitter! She was attentive to our shy pup, and both of our dogs were left tired and content after a weekend with her. She spent a ton of time with them and clearly cares about the animals she works with. We definitely plan to book her again in the future!

Kristi was great with our young puppy. She provided immediate feedback and pictures too! She was very respectful of our home and left everything neat and tidy.

Kristi was great both times she watched my pup. Having already met Argos, she was willing to take him very last minute when I unexpectedly needed a sitter. Kristi gave Argos lots of love and sent lots of pics so we could see how he was doing.

I have no breed preference. I'll take care of all of them the same. As long as I know their quirks, favorite things, and what makes them happy, I will give them the best care that I possibly can.
