Pet care experience

Plenty of walks and love daily

Plenty of references with my regular customers that I can share. I’ve had dogs and cats my entire life and caring for animals has always been second nature to me. I’ve long been the go-to person for family and friends when they need someone they trust to care for their pets. I also volunteer with Dogs Inc., which has given me even more appreciation for understanding dog behavior and providing consistent, thoughtful care.

Dog Walking • Apr 17, 2026

Kristin is great with my dog! She is always on time, communicates promptly, and lets me know how each visit goes. Would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable dog sitter.

Kristin has been caring for my Labrador for over two years. She has done walks, feedings, overnights. She is amazing and dependable! My lab is not always easy to walk, and she handles her like a true professional! I always feel like Roxy is in good hands when she is with Kristin!

Schedule

Hi! I’m a lifelong dog mom and recently retired professional who now has the time to focus on something I truly love spending time with animals. Animals have always been part of my life, and caring for them comes very naturally to me. I’m also a volunteer with Dogs Inc., which has given me an even deeper appreciation for dog behavior, patience, and understanding different personalities. I’m physically fit and active, so daily walks, playtime, and keeping up with energetic dogs is something I truly enjoy. I share my home with my dog Roxie, who absolutely loves having visiting dogs around. She’s very friendly and quickly becomes the welcoming committee for any new house guests. Because I’m retired, I have a flexible schedule and plenty of time for walks, visits, playtime, and companionship. Whether your dog needs exercise, a midday visit, or a comfortable place to stay, I love making sure they feel safe, relaxed, and well cared for.

Pets

A typical day

All activities will depend on your pet. I love to take dogs on walks, go to the dog park for those dogs that enjoy them and also play games in the house to keep them challenged. My Roxie is a very high energy dog so we do a lot inside when the temperature gets too hot

Please tell me about your pet’s personality, daily routine, and anything that helps them feel safe and comfortable. Helpful details include feeding schedule, exercise needs, medications, training cues, favorite activities, and any quirks or triggers.
