Safety, trust & environment

We have almost half an acre of secured fenced yard. At this time the fence is 4.5 feet high, so if you have a very excitable hopper, let us know. We can go out on a long line instead! We plan to have a full 6+ ft wood fence installed by next summer! We place baby gates in all door ways and have multiple areas in the house for any needed breaks from others. We also take fleas and ticks seriously. Our entire house is on monthly Nexgard, Wondercide spot on, and spritzed with Wondercide Flea & Tick daily. We spray our lawn every month with Talspar Pro, and biweekly with Wondercide Flea & Tick (Lawn). By confirming and paying to board and/or participate in daycare with us, you agree that your dog and/or cat is currently on a robust flea and tick preventative. If they are not, or they happen to come home with either, we will not be held responsible for any cost incurred in the treatment of your dog and/or cat. We can provide a Wondercide treatment for you at time of drop off for an additional $15. We can also administer a CapStar for an additional fee.

Information Kristina K. would like to know about your pet

Crate trained? Afraid of other dogs? Counter surfer? Prefers to urinate on fresh patches of concrete? I want to know it all! No detail is too small.

A typical day

With permission, let’s hit the town! Coffee shops, ponds, Lowes, open spaces, it’s all up for grabs! Pawrents said no? That’s ok! We can play brain games, snuggle on the couch, and binge watch whatever movie series makes your tail thump!

Pet care experience

******PLEASE READ****** Due to a recent increase in Rover fees for sitters, I have been forced to increase my pricing. This is not a decision I made lightly and I’m deeply saddened by it. I completely understand if I am no longer in budget. Thank you to everyone who’s supported me for the past 10 years! Hi!! I have had animals in my life for over 15+ years! I have a deep love for them and the joy that they provide. I have completed CGC, agility, nose work, service and therapy dog training. I attend conferences regularly to sharpen my skills and be able to provide a better understanding of animals communication. I have a clicker trained bunnies to perform at conferences, and to assist shy or fearful dogs to come out of their shells. I love to watch animals minds work then they figure out something new and I want to foster that learning. I have experience with all different breeds and believe there is always something new to learn! **Please Note** I have a medical alert service dog that at times accompanies me. If your dog is marked dog friendly, and you’re not comfortable with this, please let me know at the time of booking.

Kristina is amazing. She did so well with my challenging dog, was on time, kept me up to date, and made sure my dog got lots of treats. She asked a lot of questions to really understand the dog and her routines. Would highly recommend using Kristina

She is absolutely TOP tier, with our unique situation. She consistently gave us updates and took fantastic care of our girls. Making our trip much better knowing our girls were in great hands! If you need a sitter look no further.
