Safety, trust & environment

I have a cat named Blue, he is absolutely amazing! I tell people all the time God made him just for me! I have an automatic litter box, water fountain and feeder for him so he is perfectly comfortable with me being away on bookings. I have about 10 years experience with elderly animals, puppies, disabled pets, pets with special needs and even moms to be (human and pet)! Because of my experiences I take each day with each client very seriously and am sure to plan my days accordingly.

Information Kristina C. would like to know about your pet

I always ask clients about their pets behavior. How are they around other pets? Other people? Do they have separation anxiety? Are they violent? Do they take medication? Do they like to sleep in the bed with me? What's their favorite game/toy? Do they like long/short walks? etc.

A typical day

Depending on the animals mental and physical state we will go on walks or play different games in the house or backyard. I also take certain good boys and girls on field trips whether they be to the beach, park, or my best friends house to play with her rottie! If I have to leave the residence for any reason I put on lofi for the animals, not only is it lovely to walk into but I find it creates a peaceful environment for them to be in as well.

Pet care experience

When it comes to pets I love it all, from running with a dog all around my neighborhood to sitting on the couch with a cat watching TV pets are a joy to be around! I've had dogs, cats, and a rabbit growing up plus have had friends and family ask me to watch their animals from time to time all of which included dogs, cats, birds, hamsters, and even pigs! When it comes to dogs I'm comfortable with every breed, from the smallest of Pomeranians to the biggest of wolf-dogs we play and go on extra long walks! I also have 4 years of veterinary experience so when it comes to emergency pet care I can always help. I can't wait to meet all the awesome new furry (and non-furry) babies!

Kristina was great! Her first time staying with the dogs and she was able to manage both my large dog (who is apprehensive with people) and small dog (who requires medication including insulin). The house looked better than when we left it and both dogs were happy and well taken care of. We will be using her again.

Kristina is fantastic! My cat has renal disease and needs special care. Kristina was phenomenal at providing that, and Im pretty sure my cat was upset Kristina couldn't stay. I think she really bonded with Kristina. Highly recommend Kristina. She's very professional, trustworthy and gentle with animals. Absolutely go with Kristina!
