Pet care is my full-time profession, not a side hobby, so my daily routine is built around the safety, happiness, and well-being of the animals in my care. My flexible schedule allows me to provide plenty of supervision, exercise, enrichment, potty breaks, and individualized attention throughout the day. I intentionally keep my environment calm and structured so pets can settle in comfortably and maintain a healthy routine. I also invest regularly in continuing education related to animal behavior, enrichment, safety practices, and pet wellness so I can provide the highest level of care possible.

Safety, trust & environment

Your pet’s physical safety and emotional comfort are always my top priorities. I take time to learn each pet’s personality, routines, triggers, energy level, and comfort level around other animals so I can create the best possible experience for them. My home is kept clean, organized, and pet-friendly, with interactive toys, puzzles, snuffle mats, cozy resting spaces, and plenty of supervision throughout the day. Dogs are never forced into overwhelming situations, and introductions are handled carefully and thoughtfully. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I treat both the pets and the home with professionalism, respect, and attention to detail. I strive to keep pets on their normal feeding, potty, medication, exercise, and sleep routines to help minimize stress and create consistency while their family is away.

Information Kristin Marie S. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know about your pet’s feeding schedule, medications, allergies, fears, triggers, energy level, favorite activities, sleeping habits, and anything else that helps me keep their routine as familiar and stress-free as possible. I’m very comfortable caring for senior pets, rescue dogs, anxious pets, and animals with special needs, and the more I know ahead of time, the better I can tailor their care and help them feel safe, comfortable, and understood.

A typical day

Most mornings begin with a walk, outdoor time, or gentle exercise, depending on each dog’s age and energy level. Throughout the day, I incorporate enrichment activities like puzzle toys, snuffle mats, scent games, fetch, training reinforcement, and plenty of affection and one-on-one attention. Some dogs love active play and adventure, while others prefer naps, cuddles, and quiet companionship, and I truly enjoy adapting to what makes each pet happiest. My goal is for every dog to feel mentally engaged, emotionally secure, and genuinely loved while they’re with me.

Pet care experience

Professional pet care with the heart of a rescuer and the structure of an experienced business owner. Hi, I’m Kristin Marie, owner of Precious Friends Petcare. I’ve been rescuing, fostering, and caring for animals for most of my life, and creating a safe, loving environment for pets is truly my passion. I provide professional pet sitting, daycare, walks, drop-ins, enrichment, and support for pets with special needs, anxiety, senior care needs, or medication schedules. My goal is simple: keep your pet’s world feeling safe, structured, happy, and full of love while you’re away. Every pet receives individualized attention based on their personality, comfort level, and energy level. Whether your dog loves long walks, puzzle games, fetch, snuggles on the couch, or quiet companionship, I tailor their care to what makes them feel most secure and fulfilled. I also offer unique Scent Space enrichment sessions designed to promote calm, confidence, mental stimulation, and emotional balance through gentle scent work. These sessions are especially wonderful for anxious, rescue, sensitive, or senior dogs. Your pet will never be treated like “just another booking” in my home. I genuinely bond with the animals in my care and pride myself on dependable communication, thoughtful updates, and exceptional attention to detail.

Kristin was attentive, detailed, and great with our four legged children. She kept in touch, communicated, and made sure we dont have any concerns while away. When we arrived home, our home was clear than when we left with surprises in the house- Lilly was wearing a cute bandana, there’s Lilly’s picture on the fridge as a magnet, the bedroom was more neatly organized than before. Kristin thanks for your amazing service, taking care of our girls so well.

Kristin made Gus a part of her home, her family, and her life, and we really felt that. Her Biewer became a little brother for him, and as Gus is an only dog, that extra companionship seemed to bring out this easy, happy version of him we don’t always get to see. What stood out most was the feeling of trust and ease we had the whole time we were gone. No stress, no wondering how he was doing, just knowing he was being genuinely cared for and loved. Gus came home like he’d had his own little summer camp adventure, and we even got the feeling he would miss his new found friends. Can't wait to find a reason to reunite them.

I’m usually very hesitant to let anyone watch my puppy. She’s incredibly special to me and can sometimes have behavioral issues around other dogs, so I’m extremely careful about who I trust with her. Kristen was absolutely incredible from start to finish. She was so patient, understanding, and knowledgeable, and you can genuinely tell she has a lot of experience caring for pets. She even graciously accepted my last-minute booking and went above and beyond by arranging for her own puppy to stay elsewhere so mine could be comfortable and stress-free. The entire time my dog was with her, I truly felt like she was in the best hands possible, and that peace of mind meant everything to me. I’m beyond grateful for the care she gave my puppy, and I will absolutely be using her services again in the future. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, compassionate, and amazing with animals.
