Highlights
Pet care experience
Tail Wags Guaranteed
We are a true dog-loving family with experience caring for both large and small breeds, including our previous black Lab and Bull Mastiff mix. We currently have a friendly white Lab who loves doggy playdates and helps create a fun, social environment. Our home has a large yard for safe, supervised play, and we provide plenty of structure, attention, and affection so every dog feels at home. We also have two young children (5 and 3) who love dogs, so we’re best suited for pups who are comfortable and gentle around kids. Every dog we welcome is treated like part of our family.
Qualifications
Ratings and reviews
Kristin brings a great level of attention and care for your pup! She takes their specific needs and personality into account and adjusts her approach to make sure your pup is as happy and comfortable as possible. I’d trust her with my pup anytime!
Kristin is wonderful! She treated my dog like her own, kept me updated the whole time, and I came home to happy, well-cared-for animals. Would trust her again without hesitation!
Versatile Walker, Amazing with all Personalities, from Hyper to Timid! Kristin is my go-to person for dog care because she truly 'gets' them. She doesn't just walk dogs; she manages them. I’ve watched her stay completely patient with my hyper-active Australian Shepherd without ever losing her cool. On the flip side, she has a naturally calm energy that was able to win over my very shy, timid black German Shepherd almost instantly. She is also very disciplined. She follows training protocols to the letter, ensuring that your dog’s manners stay sharp while they’re in her care, (her own dog is a testament to how well this works). Plus, she’s very athletic, so she’s more than capable of handling large, strong dogs that need a real workout. She is 100% trustworthy and a natural with animals!

Schedule
Availability I’m a teacher, so during June–August I’m home most of the day (aside from short errands), which allows for lots of supervision, play, and attention. During the school year (August–May), I work full-time on weekdays. Our dog is comfortable at home during the day, and I’m often able to stop home for a quick potty break (with additional help from family if needed). Dogs in our care would have access to our yard and can enjoy safe outdoor time together. Weekends, we’re mostly home and available for plenty of playtime, walks, and attention.

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
We have fully fenced front and back yards, giving dogs plenty of safe space to run and play. Inside, dogs are part of the family—snuggles on the couch are always welcome. Our dog is crate trained, but we’re flexible based on your dog’s needs and routine. Dogs who are well-behaved can enjoy free roam in our home, as long as they’re comfortable around kids’ toys and a family environment.
