Happy to look after your wigglebutt
Pet care experience
Back in Missouri I worked for a dog walking/sitting company for 10 years. I'm hoping to bring that experience and 15+ years of working with three dog trainers to our new home. Husband and I work from home, so our dogs are high on the priority list. I've volunteered and trained with service dogs as well. I am very happy to work with any age range. I will ask what you use for your basic commands to stay consistent for your pup. I love to send you picture. Please don't feel you need to respond to every single one. I can get carried away at times, but I like letting you know your pup is having a good time. Meet and greets are preferred, my front and back yard is fully fenced in which makes it easier for your pup to meet mine. I also have crates if that is what your dog is use too, so most of the time you don't have to pack up yours. If it's possible I ask that your Rover profile is up to date when booking. I usually ask about allergies, squeaker toy issues, storm fears and any quirky behaviors your pup might have. If I have to run out the pups will be separated just in case, but I usually do all my running around before the guests arrive. Working from home has its perks, so I'll often be out on the patio watching the pups play. If you have any questions don't hesitate to ask! Can't wait to meet you and your four legged best friend!
Reviews
Kristi was amazing 👏!! My dog like most coming from a shelter is traumatized by kennels and gets very anxious in that environment and therefore was not an option. This was our first time leaving her with someone at their house. We got so many pictures, our dog got to go out more than usual! And acted like she didn't want to leave when we picked her up. We would definitely book with her again!
Kristi is wonderful. She treated Rocky as if he belonged to her. He enjoyed his time with her dogs.
Such a wonderful person! From the start of the booking, to drop off and pick up she was amazing. I felt very comfortable leaving my wiggle butt with her and her amazing doggo family for the night/day. She is great at sending photos and frequent updates. I could feel confident my pup was in good hands while I was away. I definitely recommend and will be using her in the future.
Kristi S is an excellent dog sitter. 10/10 recommend!

In our house, we try to follow the client's rules. If their pet isn't allowed on the furniture, we want to stay constant. We try to keep outings short when there's a pet guest and send pet parents daily pictures so they can see their dog's happy face.

Information Kristi S. would like to know about your pet
I usually like to know if the dog has any allergies, quarks, basic commands they know/are working on, and if they're allowed to go on car rides. If my kids are going on an adventure, I like to include our guest pup as well. I also like to send daily photos so parents can see how their fur baby is doing.
A typical day
Pups usually wake us up around 7-730. After they go out, breakfast is served. Quick clean up and back into the yard to play. We usually try to get in a walk after lunch or dinner depending on the weather.

Availability
With two small dogs and one very large dog, our lives thrive on routine. There are set times they wake up, get fed, prep for the next meals, and walks as the weather permits. The pups don't mind if we leave for a little bit, but happy to have us all together.
