Pet care experience
I have hardly lived a day without animals in my life. I have taught beginner dog obedience classes and have watched friends (and their friends) dogs for many years. I’m comfortable with all breeds. I had a small farm including goats & poultry as well as cats, parrots and other small animals.
Reviews
I have known Kristin for almost 10 years, she is a very conscientious pet owner and pet sitter. She always does what’s best for the pets…dogs, cats, birds, reptiles… Kristin goes above and beyond and is well versed in pet care as she has had numerous pets for many years as well as taken care of other people’s pets. Kristin will give your pet the best care while you are away.
My Mom is a very experienced pet owner and caretaker. She has taught basic dog training classes, participates in dog photography, and has taken care of friend's dogs, as well. We have also raised cats from birth, fostered dogs & cats over many years, and had a small farm with chickens, ducks, and goats. Other than dogs, we own several parrots and a bearded dragon, both of which my Mom has taken excellent care. She is very attentive to their needs and has a big heart, helping animals find their forever homes. She is responsible pet caregiver and I would highly recommend her to anyone seeking pet assistance.

I’m currently offering care in your home only. I do not believe in dog parks and you are welcome to ask me my reasons! Feeding, walking, medication, puppy training, cat brushing, parrot meals/chop, lizard feedings (sorry but I do not feed live animals to pets), rabbit care, other small animals…
Information Kristin M. would like to know about your pet
I’d like to know up front any issues your pet may have, such as food aggression, animal aggression, timid. Dogs:Any commands used, release word (for those who use one), walking behavior, breed.
A typical day
Dogs:I have taken some previous day time client dogs on 1-8 miles hikes but even a simple walk down a quit road is suitable for some. The ticks can be out in full force at times so it’s important that pups be kept up on prevention. I prefer to stay away from busy areas so it’s less distraction and safer for pups. Cats: please let me know if you cat enjoys certain activities. Other pets: tbd
