Information Kristin R. would like to know about your pet

Your dog needs to be current on vaccinations to protect my dogs and yours. Your dog should play well with others and be spayed/neutered. Please let me know ahead of time any special needs your pet may have so I can be ready to provide the best care.

A typical day

We can play in my fenced backyard with toys or in the baby pool/splash pad during warmer months. I have all kinds of toys to keep your pup busy and happy (Kong’s, chew toys and tennis balls), but you’re welcome to bring whatever makes your dog feel comfortable.

Pets

Loves dogs, fenced yard/clean house

Pet care experience

I love dogs! I have 2 sheepdoodles of my own who I love to spoil. I have either owned a dog or fostered dogs my entire life. I believe dogs are a part of the family and will treat your dog as a part of mine while they are with me. Your dog will be in the home with me, not left outdoors. I can accommodate dietary needs and minor medical needs. I can even give him or her a bath if you’d like! I have a fenced backyard where we can play with toys or jump in the baby pool or splash pad. I will communicate with you via texts, pics or videos while you’re away to give you peace of mind your fur baby is doing well. Your dog will have a great time in my home. I do work outside the home, with varied days off. So, your pet would need to be able to go 8 hours without a potty break. I would be home with your pet at ALL other times ensuring they aren’t lonely or scared. I have a large, fenced backyard where your pup can run and play. I have 2 dogs who would love to play chase or tug with yours! Your pup would be in the house with me as if he/she were my own. I can crate your pup if desired.

Kristin did a great job with my pups! She made sure I received updates while I was away for the holiday and it sounds like my dogs got along with hers as well. Thank you!
