Availability

I work from home during the week and have a fairly flexible schedule. I can let your dog out frequently during the day into our fenced backyard. I take several walks in the neighborhood every day (rain or shine) so your pet can get lots of exercise as needed. I also like to travel to nearby trails for hikes on weekends.

Caring and trustworthy dog care

Pet care experience

I am a loving and attentive pet sitter. I work from home during the week, go on multiple walks a day, and would love to care for your furry companion! I live in a small home with a fully fenced backyard. I have experience with senior dogs, deaf dogs, and administering oral medication to dogs. We also have some mobility aids if needed (small stairs to get on couch/bed, ramp to get down to backyard). I would love to meetup to see if I'm a good fit for you and your pets. I only accept one dog at a time or dogs from the same household for boarding which ensures your pet(s) receive plenty of individualized attention. There are no other pets in the home, making this a great fit for dogs who do better as an only pet. *I cannot accept dogs who are aggressive or don't do well around children.*

Kristi and her family were absolutely AWESOME with my dog, Gecko. Kristi took her on so many walks and sent a bunch of great photos of play time and adventures. I loved how much fun they seemed to be having together and Gecko came home happy, healthy, and hilariously tired from her vacation! I will (and have) absolutely book with Kristi again. Such a great experience!

This is the second time Mia stayed with Kristi and she warmed up right away to the family and fit right in. The entire week was great, Mia had a great time, and I felt so comfortable leaving Mia in Kristi's care - that means the world to us. We've already booked Kristi for our next trip. Highly recommend Kristi to care for your fur babies!

Our dog is very nervous leaving us and she immediately warmed up to Kristi. We felt very comfortable leaving Mia with her, which means everything to us. Kristi sent us daily updates and pictures, and quickly responded to texts. We have already booked Mia's next stay with Kristi. Highly recommend!
