Pet care experience
My expertise goes far beyond my love of dogs, which started long, long ago. My background is in life coaching, for humans that is...but a few years ago I decided to pursue another dream and learned to coach dogs. Animals, and especially dogs, are a passion for me!!! I attended a professional dog training academy in 2010, and since then, have been working in the pet industry for the last 4 years. Now I am branching out on my own. I want to work one on one with dogs and their humans to enrich the dog’s life and help their owners to fully enjoy the experience of life with a dog. When contracting me you can expect I will treat your dog as my own, your pet care needs are taken care of and complete. I am reliable and I've got your back when it comes to your pets. My sweet and beautiful 15 year old black pug, Betsy, was my companion and greatest instructor of the animal-human bond. Sadly, Betsy passed away in 2015. Ellie Mae, my 6 year old goldendoodle, accompanied me in the Academy and we also certified as a touch therapy team, following in Betsy's footsteps. Dogs bring me great joy and laughter and I am confident that I will enjoy spending time with yours. I look forward to meeting you and your dog!!! Why I love dog sitting I have been a dog lover for as long as I can remember. I grew up with dogs and cats and believe animals enrich our lives and bring a tremendous amount of joy, laughter and love. About my yard I have a fenced in yard that provides plenty of room for running around and playing. It also provides a safe area for dogs to roam off leash. Trust that I will always be outside with your dog, even with the fence. My experience administering medication I would be happy to administer medication.
Reviews
Kristen and her family were so sweet with my young dog. It was his first experience away from us and could not have been better. She sent multiple daily updates with photos and videos. My mind was completely at ease knowing my baby was well cared for and happy. I am over the top discriminating when it comes to my dogs and I will definitely be using Kristen again.
Kristin was wonderful! I know our pup
Our dog has stayed with Kristin twice now and we will continue to use her for anymore upcoming travels! She is so good with him and I am so comfortable leaving him with her. It's obvious that she loves animals including ours :-)
Tanner is my son's dog and when he needs someone to watch him it has always been me who watches him. Tanner has never stayed with anyone else. However, we found that we needed to be out of town at the same time and decided to try Rover. OMG Kristin was amazing from the moment that we met her. There was no doubt that she would provide a safe and loving environment but that she would adhere to the routine that we have for Tanner. I selfishly hesitate to give her a glowing recommendation because I don't want her to not be available when we need her. Seriously, she is the best. She sent great pictures and videos which should us that Tanner was having a blast. We couldn't have been more pleased! Thank you Kristin!!
