Devoted & Passionate Care

Pet care experience

I have always had a passion for taking care of dogs! When I was younger, I adopted my own dog after she had been abused by her previous family. While she was skittish and shy at first, she grew into the most loving and loyal dog in our household. Not only was she happy, she was healthy as well, living to be 14 years old! I also went on to volunteer with the same adoption center, so that I could give as many of their dogs the love and attention they deserve. In addition, I interned at an animal hospital my senior year of high school. I am a recent graduate of The College of William and Mary and am currently dogless as I have moved away from my childhood home. Looking forward to providing your pet with the same amount of love as you do while you are away! I work during the day, so am typically unavailable, unless you need me for the evening! Also I typically have every other Friday off from work. I live in a great neighborhood for walks and am walking distance to the Clarendon dog park!

Kristin is wonderful with my two dogs. She is patient with my old & grouchy guy so that he could get comfortable meeting a new person. My lab loved her, of course! Great communicator, prompt, reliable, kind. The dogs already asked me when she's coming to stay again!

I've know Kristin for almost 15 years and she's always been a passionate dog and animal lover. She grew up with her family's adopted dog Lexi, and they were as close as a pet and an owner could be. In addition to her love for dogs, Kristin is an extremely responsible and mature person. I couldn't think of a better person to be a dog sitter!

Kristin has always been an animal lover and is great with dogs. As a close neighbor, she would oftentimes come and help walk/feed our family dogs. As a High School student she interned with a local Veterinarian for three months and gained valuable experience working with different types of animals. She is extremely reliable and trustworthy.
