It's not a job when with dogs!

Pet care experience

I have worked at an animal shelter for 12 years and dogs were always in my home growing up. I live in Ypsi and have a little Cavalier King Charles of my own and love it. I work from home every day so love the opportunity to get outside and meet more dogs! Animals are essential to human happiness, in my opinion, and I will treat your dog as an essential part of your life. The care I give will always adapt to what the dog needs, and I am willing to put in the time and effort to know exactly what that will entail. Thank you for trusting me with your dog(s)!

Kristin was very communicative and kept updating me about my pup throughout her stay! Definitely would use her again for a drop in visit

Kristin is amazing! She treats the dogs like humans, giving them love and attention. Highly recommend her to any dog owner. Kristin will snuggle with my pups endlessly and take them on adventures. I have a bigger, strong pup and Kristin has no problem telling him who’s boss on walks.

Information Kristin H. would like to know about your pet

I would love to know their favorite toys, activities, and if they have any kind of nervousness surrounding anything we may encounter on a visit. I want to make their lives as stress free as possible so any information that will help them get to know a stranger is helpful.

A typical day

The walks should be enriching, therefore whatever fun scenery or availability to run them around I can give I will! Their playfulness will obviously depend on the dog, so after talking with owners and getting to know the dogs I will know more of their personality and what they would like to do with me. If it is a home visit, I will encourage life to be as routine and stress free, whether that be playing with their toys on their favorite rug, or running in their favorite backyard spots. I am determined to get to know each dog individually and adapt to their needs.
