Pet care experience

I love dogs of all breeds and sizes

I have had dogs all my life and recently left my job at a local dog shelter. My sister and I have been fostering and volunteering for the shelter for almost two years now. We have fostered everything from full grown pitbulls down to 6 week old boxer puppies. My passion is dogs. Whenever friends and family go out of town, I’m the designated dog sitter. No dog is too much to handle. I have two wonderful dogs of my own and they love to play and have guests. I try to go on walks everyday and I try my best to provide the care and attention each dog needs. I have a full time job that I work until 5 Monday through Friday, but I am home every day at lunch time for an hour and am able to take the dogs out to play and go potty. I have a very quiet and stress free home.

Kristina did an amazing job with my pups! I got updates throughout the trip. And she even brought in my packages that got delivered that week. Really grateful for the care she gave to the furbabies!

Kristina did a great job taking care of Barney. He was very comfortable with her. I will definitely use her again.

Kristina stayed at our house while we were away for our wedding and honeymoon. She did a great job and kept our minds at ease. We had no worries that our doodles would be safe while we were gone. I'd highly recommend Kristina.

Kristie watches my dogs for me all the time and they LOVE her. I have 3 dogs: a 12 year old pomeranian/poodle named Lucy, a 2 year old boxer mix named Freedom, and a 1 year old schnauzer/pit named Panda. My dogs are all very different and they all have different needs, but I always know that they are taken care of when I leave them with Kristie. Panda has ENDLESS amounts of energy and needs a lot of playtime and exercise to be happy, Freedom is happy to just hang out, but she needs at least 2-3 long walks a day so she can hunt all the squirrels and rabbits that she watches from the window, and Lucy wants nothing more to sit in your lap and occasionally be let out to potty and munch on some plants. Kristie knows all of their personalities and needs and takes care of them accordingly. I highly recommend her!!

Safety, trust & environment

I treat my pets and other’s like family. My pets sleep with me and when others are here they do as well as long as their owners are okay with it. I do have ways to separate dogs if that is necessary. If I am at someone else’s home, I will follow whatever parameters they have for their animals.

A typical day

I enjoy going on walks and if they are at my house there is no shortage of play with all of my dogs. If I am at another home, I love to do whatever the animals like to do!

I like to know about the pet’s behavior ahead of time as far as getting along with other dogs and how they behave on walks. If they need any medication or special instructions with food or treats that is always good to know too.
