Availability
Pet Care is my priority, and my schedule is open. I am hoping to grow this business from my home as I know that not all people want to board their dogs in large franchise style facilities and might prefer personalized attention, care and love.

Safety, trust & environment
We have a long driveway, away from a low traffic road, a fenced in area with a doghouse and plenty of shade, a large gated outdoor deck, indoor bedding and crating when requested. Our dogs have always been indoor crate trained initially, though our current 2-year-old female yellow lab is well behaved and trusted in the house and not using the crate any longer. I have an intake form for clients- to ensure I have all requests noted for reference. Thank you for the opportunity to share my love with your fur babes.

Information Kristin S. would like to know about your pet
Important for me to know if your dog has any behavioral needs, diet restrictions, aggression, challenges or special needs prior to their care so I can plan accordingly. Let me know what you're looking for- imagine I can accommodate. Need to know your preferences for any type of travel. Crate, seatbelt with harness, back seat bed/blanket, etc. Thank you.
A typical day
I have plenty of free time, and use it on walks, hikes, training, play, cuddles and love, mental stimulation and agility. Indoors and/or outdoors, feeding, snacks, naps, hide and seek. We are minutes from trails as well- adventure awaits. If you are a regular client and my calendar is full, please reach out to me, I may be able to accommodate.

Pet care experience
I truly have a passion for dogs and their care. My family and I have always owned and cared for friends and co-workers dogs and other pets, and even some with challenges. Many years of experience caring for puppies to senior dogs and also worked in the pet industry, including as a consultant. I am certified in Pet CPR and First Aid and have studied pet nutrition as well as invested a lot of time and money in dog training. I look forward to working with you and meeting your dogs!
Reviews
Kristin and Mark are always our #1 pick for our little girl Dream. We always know she is in the best care possible over there
Harvey had another amazing stay with Kristin! He had the time of his life going on hikes, learning to swim, and playing with Kaia and the other dogs under Kristin’s care during his time there. Kristin was in constant communication with us, sending us updates and pictures daily. We can’t thank Kristin and Mark enough for making Harvey feel like part of the family while we were away for 8 nights.
The saddest part of her stay is always when she has to leave. Kristin and Kaia, and Mark too, take the very best care of Poppy while we are away. She gets to hike, jump in muddy puddles, play catch, and watch the sunset snuggled with her second family! Each stay is nothing short of perfection! Thank you so very much! 🐾❤️
Kristin and her husband have become more like friends at this point. She is absolutely remarkable with any and all dogs. I strongly recommend anyone get in touch with her for bookings. I honestly feel so comfortable leaving Sadie with Kristin knowing she is well cared for and surely loved. Being confident in who is caring for your pet is critical to making vacations, travel, or even pet sitting comfortable. Kristin truly has a gift and we are so blessed to have found her!
