Pet care experience
My life has always been full of animals. Growing up on a farm where we cared for livestock, we had working dogs and cats. So high energy and firm handling is in my nature. All through out my childhood I had the pleasure and joy of handling and training birds, guinea pigs, rabbits, and even horses . As an adult I fostered kittens, puppies and worked with rehabbers on domesticating feral cats. I have experience with grooming and bathing as well. I frequently cut friends/family/acquaintances pet's nails. Including rabbits/bunnies / guinea pigs/birds/dogs/cats.
Reviews
Kristin is, by far, the most caring and attentive person you could have the privilege of dealing with. She takes the time to learn your pets' behaviors and showers them with love and pays extra close attention to detail. You couldn't ask for a better attendant for your pet. 5 Stars!
Kristin is the absolute best. I don’t trust anybody else with my dogs cause I want them to have the absolute best sitter who will treat them as their own and that is exactly what Kristin does! I never have to worry about if their needs are being met in a reasonable time frame with Kristin around. My dogs get all the extra love they could ever dream of because of her. 10/10 recommend using Kristin to care for your fur babies.
Kristin would be an excellent dog sitter. She will take her time to research and get to know the breed of dog she will be watching. She has a dog of her own that she absolutely loves and takes care of. She has her own grooming equipment to clip toe nails, scissors, and brushes. She recently rescued a Chow Chow that she later rehomed with me. Before rehoming this Chow Chow she made sure she had all her shots, groomed her, and provided me with her health records. She also showed me all the tricks and training she has done with her up until I got her. She loves dogs and she enjoys training them as well. She will make sure your dog is loved and provided for in care. I can't think of anyone better to watch your dog.
Kristen is one of the most loving and caring people I know. Her gentleness and calmness towards animals is one of the most nurturing abilities anyone can have. She is very experienced in all aspects of care and service from professional grooming, to training. We have interested her with our 2dogs and cat for many years and she has my highest recommendation. Thank you Kristen for everything you have done and continue to do.
