Pet care experience

I love love love 🐾❤️🐾 dogs & cats

I have loved dogs, cats and parrots since I was a child. I have cared for and walked dogs for over 50 years. Taking care of animals is a passion for me. I have adopted 4 rescue greyhound dogs, a Caique Parrot and Siamese Cat. I can walk your dog, board your dog or cat at my home or care for your pets in your home. For longer stays I will offer a discounted rate. I am reliable, adore animals and have reliable transportation. I am experienced with senior dog and cat care, special needs dogs, can provide oral medication and injections, daily exercise and food preparation. I love cats and dogs of all sizes. A initial consultation is free so I can find out about your pets typical routine & any special things you would like me to do. I look forward to meeting your special pet. I completed a CPR class in March. I will do my best to make your precious pet feel loved and safe. Thank you for contacting me🐾❤️

Kristin is great! She’s super responsive and communicative. She’s my first choice to care for my grumpy old man fur baby

A typical day

We can walk to a great park nearby. There is also a wonderful dog park only 2 miles away. I can let your dog off leash at the dog park if this is what you like. In my house if your dog is small and likes to be held they can sit with me on the couch. While you are away I want your dog to feel safe and loved.

I love all dog breeds. I would like to know all about your dog. Let me know what is your dogs typical routine. How is your dog with other dogs and people. What makes your dog happy. Do they have any special needs? Where they sleep at night and what time they go to bed and get up.
