Love a good cuddle buddy

Pet care experience

I love all dog breeds but, have a special place in my heart for the elderly, small to mediums. Currently, I have a 15yr old, 3-legged Lhasa Apso that I rescued through Old Dog Haven. I'm comfortable with administering eye meds, pills, and or specialty diets. Love to walk or just hang out...

Kristina does a great job of caring for my dog. She’s responsible and really gets to know my dog’s needs and preferences.

We continue to use Kristina for our dogs staycation when we leave town. Our dogs love it there. She also is comfortable with senior dogs and with dogs who have health issues. I can rest well knowing that they are in her hands. Thanks again!

Truly an outstanding experience. Kristina treated our little guy like a king and saw to his every need. She sent photos regularly and kept us informed as well. Most importantly he came back happy and healthy, and we would certainly make the same decision again.

Kristina did an amazing job taking care of Aspen over the holidays. He clearly had a great time with her and is happy and healthy! Kristina is very responsive and experienced and just a lovely person, we felt very comfortable leaving our Aspen in her care. Highly recommend her services!

Information Kristina L. would like to know about your pet

Please share with me any special or unique needs that your dog may require. I'm happy to meet them in advance of your travel dates to make sure we avoid that "awkward blind date" greeting! The last thing you need to worry about while on vacation is if your fur baby is ok. I can text you pics! Also, I will ask for your preferred Vet's info and make sure that I have permission to act on your behalf if needed.

A typical day

It depends on what your pet is used to. Most of my elders just want a couple short walks and LOTS of naps. Currently, I walk a lab/mix that is recovering from back surgery. He has gone from complete paralysis of his back end to being able to walk up to a mile in the last six months. Before his injury, Corbin and his girlfriend Ginger would head out 2-3 days a week for 5-10miles. I miss those long walks.

I am that person that knows all the neighborhood dogs and adds $ to the doggy bag stations. Pet sitting fits in perfectly with my daily routines. I even take mine for car rides if we have to do a quick errand.
