Pet care experience

Active family, big yard, cuddles

If you're looking for someone to spoil your spaniel, pamper your poodle or house your hound, I can help. I'm a stay at home mom with three dog-loving boys (ages 7 to 13). We have a BIG fenced-in backyard and our neighborhood backs up to a nature trail where we like to go for walks every day. I usually walk between 1-3 miles, but if your pooch prefers to laze about, we're good with that too. I have 12 yrs of experience with pet care, including dog sitting, walking, and in-home visits. I have flexible hours and I'm comfortable with various breeds, sizes and energy levels. So, whether you need someone to love your lab, bathe your bulldog or walk your westie, I've gotcha covered.

Kristin did a fantastic job with Kika! She was always nice, responsive, and kept me updated on Kika's activities throughout the stay. She was incredibly attentive to all of Kika’s needs, prompt, and resourceful. She was also highly flexible and accommodated a pickup outside of our agreed time. Thank you so much, Kristin!

Kristen always does a great job with Bacchus. The family is wonderful and he enjoys the daily walks. I highly recommend using Kristen for your pet sitting needs

Kristin and her family always seems to rise to the occasion! We had her watch Rusty once again and he continually comes back feeling relaxed. Additionally, our flight was delayed and Kristen’s family was very understanding and flexible for pick-up. Very trusting dog sitter. Highly recommend for consideration.

We appreciated Kristin's willingness to help us out with fairly short notice. Great communication and our dog was well cared for. Thank you!

Kristin and her family are fantastic! This is the second time we have called on her services and have not been disappointed with her professionalism, her eagerness to accommodate, and her prompt communication style. I would strongly recommend reaching out to her if feeling safe and prioritized is important to you.

Schedule

I'm a stay at home mom, so your pup will get all the attention they deserve. My boys and I go for frequent walks and spend lots of time in the back yard playing fetch with our doggy friends.
