Safety, trust & environment

When you choose me, your fur baby is my fur baby! I do whatever is needed to make sure your pup feels safe, secure, and happy while you're away. We follow any and all house rules for visits in your home. In my home, I have 2 Golden Retrievers who are always welcoming of new playmates to burn some energy, or an older doggo that just wants to snuggle up and relax in the a/c between walks - whichever speed fits your dog's style.

Information Kristin S. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if your dog has any special needs or quirks I should be prepared for. What is their typical schedule when you are home? What do they love doing? What should we avoid? Is there a certain way you introduce them to other pets along a walk, or do you prefer they don't interact? Are there treat restrictions?

A typical day

We love to practice tricks, play ball (tennis, football, soccer), give belly rubs, explore the neighborhood, or just enjoy being outside on the patio or under a shady oak tree.

Pet care experience

I've been taking care of Med & Lg breed dogs across all ages my whole life, including Great Danes, Pit mixes, a Husky, and multiple Golden Retrievers. I absolutely love getting to know each dog's personality! I am more than happy to accommodate any special training requests you've been working on to keep those skills sharp as well. I can help teach and reinforce basic commands like sit, down, heal, and place if you've got a young pup. You can count on photo updates, and maybe even a couple punny captions!

It’s always difficult leaving your babies when you travel. Our previous “Auntie” no longer does extended stays; but, helped in finding a replacement. Kristin was the perfect fit. From first meeting; to second meeting with her boy; to the stay. We could not have had better. Daily updates, plus extra cuteness pics… Thorough updates for our Senior boy with cancer. We had zero stress, because both of our dogs looked so happy and relaxed! Thank you Kristin! You are such an amazing person! And we love Tuck! Will definitely book you again🤙🏽💙

Thank you Kristin. Jack loved the time he spent with you. Kristin took great care of our Jack over night. She provided pictures of their walks together and him laying around relaxing. We will definitely have Kristin watch him next time we go away.

We love Kristin and so do our dogs! She’s very patient and takes such great care of our pups. She is reliable, trustworthy and kind. I would definitely recommend her to any friends and family without hesitation!

Kristin is a doll and I just liked her immediately! Our dogs loved her and she went above and beyond to accommodate workers coming in to fix our A/C while she was working from our home. She asked clarifying questions regarding the instructions we left and let us know of any changes in our dogs or their routine. We will use her again!
