Pet care experience

Dog behavioral trainer

Thank you for considering me to care for your dog. My experience with behavioral training is vast, as I have spent much time with incredible behavioral trainers such as Cheri Wulff Lucas, Colleen Steckloff, and many more. I personally recognize the importance of feeling confident leaving your dog in someone else’s care. Dogs feel safe here, because I provide structure, exercise, stimulation, and most importantly a calm environment. This is true for dogs of every age - puppyhood to the golden years. My home isn’t an average daycare. It is a structured training environment, where every dog receives personalized guidance. I live in a 2900 square foot Fircrest home with a fenced yard, which is perfect for relaxation after a nice walk and play time. There is also air conditioning for the warm summer months.

Kristina has been so wonderful to work with! Our energetic puppy has spent a few days with her at day care and then overnight boarding during a long trip. She was easy to book with, provided consistent communication and picture updates. Most importantly, our Rocco seems to have a great time there!

Kristina was amazing with our dog. She sent us pics and let us know what they were up to. She seems to be the dog whisperer! We will definitely use her services again!

Kristinas' love for my puppy shined through everywhere! She returns a very happy dog to me exhausted but so content. Her photos show the playtime which is so needed and yet the balance of rest. Every morning my puppy is so excited to turn into her driveway and say "I'm here"! I couldn't ask for more.

Kristina is an excellent option for daycare! She kept our doggo engaged and happy and provided videos and photos of him to keep us updated. I highly recommend her!

Kristina took great care of our 6 month folder retriever, Phoebe! Kristina is very attentive, responsive, and a pro at what she does. Phoebe had a great time and was in good hands.

I don't have any breed preferences, but if there are any behavioral concerns, I like to know in advance. When was your dog last treated for fleas? I also want to know about any potential food allergies, medications, and the everyday routine. Do you want your dog separated from other dogs and given one-on-one time? I am flexible and can tailor my care based on your dogs' individual needs
