Pet care experience
Hi! I am a proud owner of an 11yo Beagle/Greyound that I adopted from a shelter at 8wks old. I've never lived without a dog and I don't think I ever will. I have cared for all kinds of breeds from chihuahuas to Newfoundlands and from happy to sleep all day dogs, to dogs that love to surf and bike ride. I trained my my fur-baby to be a service animal, respond to hand signals only and to be capable of being off leash where legal. I believe dogs have a 6th sense and are the best company and protectors we could ever ask for. I am available full time and understand the importance of knowing your 4 legged family member is in good hands when you're not home. I hope to be that person for your family and pet! I love to cuddle and shower them with affection, go for walks in the park or the neighborhood. I promise to treat you family member as one of my own.
Reviews
Kristie is wonderful with dogs! My dog Harley Quinn absolutely adores her! Kristie watched her for the first time when I went to NYC for the weekend with my mother and when I came back, not only was Harley safe and happy but she had also been practicing her training while I was gone! Kristie definitely knows what she is doing and has a gift when it comes to relating with and bonding with dogs. I would highly recommend her!

Information Kristie K. would like to know about your pet
I would definitely want to meet your dog before agreeing to any services. Unless the dog is a puppy, I would prefer that they are potty trained. Also, please tell me any little things that help ease your pets anxiety and any signals they give for what they want.
A typical day
I really enjoy engaging dogs with mental activities as well as physical activities. You can expect your dog to go on walks at parks, play fetch, participate in mental games of "finding the treat" and playing with all sorts of toys. I believe in positive reinforcement and I am very patient I understand that even dogs need so.e time and some special attention to get settled into an u familiar place and I will do all I can to make sure they know they are safe and loved!
