Patient, loving caretaker.

Pet care experience

I currently have a house with no live-in animals so I am able to care for those animals who might need to be solo. I pay attention to dog body language and can tailor my care to their preference. I love the cuddly and playful animals but I realize some animals may need more space. I have had dogs, cats, and one hamster throughout my life. I have also volunteered at a zoo, a wildlife rehab, and animal rescue, so I have experience caring for a wide variety of animals in all stages of their life. I have experience feeding specialized diets as well as giving medication, orally and topically. I enjoy taking dogs on walks around the neighborhood, and would be able to visit a dog park if needed. For house-sitting or drop-ins, I am able to adapt to your place and take care of your animals in a space that they are comfortable. As a lifelong animal lover, I cannot wait to meet your pup!

We are absolutely grateful to Kristin & her husband for taking wonderful care of our Mochi. We would definitely book her services again! She was so flexible in working with our drop-off & pick-up times. She had a warm, comfortable, safe home complete with doggie bowls, toys, crate, & bed. She also stayed in regular touch with us while we were away. We could tell that Mochi loved staying with Kristin & her husband too. Mochi is so happy to have made new friends & hopes to see them again.
