I have a weakness for puppydog eyes

Pet care experience

O those puppy dog eyes... they get me every time. I lost my girl Sasha a couple years ago on Christmas, and I'm not ready for another pup yet, but I'd be delighted to help care for yours. I love dogs (pets) of all kinds, except for disobedience ones. I'm self employed, and work from home, so my schedule and location is flexible. I consider all dogs pups, and tend to bring out their playful side. I have house and dog sat several breeds, including border and rough collies, weimaraners, retrievers, labs, spring and cocker spaniels, dachshunds, pitbulls, boxers, bulldogs, havaneses, shih tzus, yorkies, frenchies and all kinds of mixes. I favor medium size breeds which are easy to walk on a leash, but truly love them all. I will help out with cat care and other pets and plants as well. I enjoy training dogs, to sit, lie down, roll over, play dead, do push-ups, etc. I get along best with dogs who love people, enjoy being petted/brushed, and playing fetch/tug of war. I cannot be held responsible if your dog starts to love me more than you. For boarding clients, my property sits on 1/3 acer and we have a fenced-in back yard, so there is plenty of room for them to run around. I own a co-living home and have 4 tenants who reside with me so there is always someone there to keep them company. If you Disclaimer: While I can certainly be a homebody at times and cuddle with your pet all day, I also enjoy getting out and about once in a while, going to movies, attending yoga classes, and hosting 3 hour holistic workshops once a month, so please be specific about your pets needs to make sure we are a good fit. If your pup(s) requires more or less attention, please let me know so we can agree on a reasonable rate for your pet's needs.

Kristi took excellent care of my dog, Casey and my home while I was out of town. She sent pics almost daily so I could see Casey was doing well and was in contact regularly if she had questions. She took great care of my home, watered flowers, put out garbage and left my home clean and neat. I highly recommend Kristi and will have her come again!

I received photos everyday of the dogs. They seemed very happy and relaxed when we got home.

Kristi took care of our 2 dogs for a week and we highly recommend her. She sent photos and communicated daily so we always knew they were in good hands. We were delayed a day in returning home and even though Kristi had another booking she made some time to come by to give them a potty break and breakfast. She cleaned the house and made the bed up fresh which was above and beyond and highly appreciated. We will be using Kristi again and are so happy we found her.

Kristi did an awesome job with our golden, Hannah. Kristi was a great communicator. She gave us lots of updates and sent us lots of pics so we knew Hannah was having a great stay. I would highly recommend Kristi for boarding.
