Ready to dog walk and cat cuddle!

Pet care experience

I've owned pets my whole life from cats and dogs to ducks, birds and small animals. I volunteered at a vet clinic and was subsequently hired to administer meds, clean, feed, bathe and assist the staff. I then was in charge of all small animals at a pet store for years and have now fostered cats and dogs for the past 14 years. I assist friends and family with sitting their pets and am very dependable. I've cared for puppies up to seniors, jack russels to german shepherds!

Kristin was amazing. First time using her to watch my 2 very hyper pitbull mixes. She took great care of them. They came home happy and worn out from all their playing. She really takes the time to learn about the animals before they stay with her. I would recommend her to anyone.

Kristin is awesome. Period. You will not find a better person to care for your dog(s). I truly appreciated the daily updates and pictures. Never a doubt that my dogs received anything but the best from Kristin.

Bella & Flynt had a great first time with Kristin and Simon. We are very particular about our dogs, and Kristin communicated perfectly with us. She asked questions, and sent plenty of photos/videos. We will definitely book with Kristin again!

Information Kristin D. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if there are any aggression concerns, safety concerns as well as likes and dislikes of your pet! Commands they know, routines will be requested when they stay with me. Please bring whatever will make them feel comfortable and at home while staying with us. During the meet and greet we can cover all of your pets needs.

A typical day

Walking, playing with toys, stimulating mind games and practicing commands, not to mention cuddles and treats are all in a day's work! We can walk our neighborhood or can keep to our fenced in yard, whichever is best for the animals. Let me know your pets favorite activities! I enjoy hiking trails nearby for a longer adventure day or being a couch potato with your pet. I am open for anything.

I work a M-F 730-330 schedule hybrid at home and in the office. I can usually accomodate any pickup/dropoff times if I know in advance and can be working from home. I always keep my schedule up to date so please check there for specific dates. My boyfriend also lives with me to assist with our house guests and we have no other pets. We have a 4ft chain link fenced in backyard for dogs to play, and love to take dogs for walks. We do share the fence with a small dog who barks at our guests when he is outside. Cats are also welcome in our home. We require animals to be potty-trained in order to keep a clean home for all of our guests. Unfortunately, we decline to host unneutered males for marking purposes. Message with any questions, I almost always can work something out!
