Living that downtown doggy life

Pet care experience

Dogs bring us so much joy, and I absolutely love giving them the care and attention they deserve! I've been a dog mom for 10 years and have experience caring for them in all stages of life, from puppy to senior. I live in the Loft District downtown and understand the challenge of making sure our furry friends get enough outside play time. We'll walk all over downtown and/or your neighborhood (Avondale, Highlands, Southside, Lakeview, Crestwood, Forest Park, etc.) -- cleaning up behind us as we go ;) -- to take in the sights, smells and sounds of the Magic City. I work in Homewood and typically come home for lunch to walk my fur baby, Hobbes. I'm definitely available from 5-10 p.m. on weekdays, but I have some flexibility if you need something around lunch or a little earlier in the afternoon. I'm available 8 a.m. to 10 p.m. most weekends.

Kristen has taken care of my dog Tia on several occasions. I don’t have to worry because I know she will be well taken care of. She won’t just do the bare minimum of walking and feeding your dog. She will go the extra mile to make your pet feel loved. She is very responsible and trustworthy and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her to anyone.

I've known Kristin for more than 10 years. She LOVES dogs, and is a responsible person. She is a dog mom, and has always taken care of other people's pets. She has even taken care of my cat for me on several occasions. She loves to take walks, and would give any pet the time they need to get out and stretch their legs. I don't hesitate to recommend her as a dog sitter. Hire her, you won't regret it!

Information Kristin W. would like to know about your pet

A brief description about your dog's social skills would always be helpful (Does he/she like other dogs? Maybe a little shy or not interested in making new friends? Are we curious or cautious around pedestrians/cyclists?) Also, I extend my love and interest to all breeds - my Hobbes is a boxer/pit mix, so I understand the difficulties that stigmas can place on some breeds.

A typical day

We'll explore downtown or your neighborhood. If time allows, we can venture to the parks around Highland, Avondale, Crestwood or Railroad Park. We can even go running, if your pup's into that. I also have an SUV with plenty of room for your dog(s) if transportation becomes part of our exploration.
