Pet care experience
I have been in a dog loving home since a child. My mother had 4 dogs 4 cats and 4 kids lol. Now I am a mother of 4 children 3 are boys ages 10, 8, and 3 then my daughter is 1 years old. My husband and I shortly before we found out we would be expecting baby #4 we decided to get a puppy he was born November 8th 2019. So wasn’t it panned to be pregnant and have newborn plus a puppy but we made it work because we promised him a forever home. He is a full bread German Shepherd he LOVES kids and loves other dogs even ones that haven’t liked him he would just stay calm. He is very cautious of new adults especially males but he’s just very protective. Our dogs name is Juicy Bear or just Juice we call him and he really need a friend to play with now that kids are back in school and I have a 3&1 year old I don’t get to take him on many doggy play dates but I know that’s what he needs is a friend someone to run around and play with in our fenced in back yard.
Reviews
Kristina and her two young boys were great with my girl Marley! They took good care of her. The boys played with her and slept with her to make her feel more comfortable. I would definitely take her back there again.
Kristina is an excellent dog sitter. She is loved by our dog as she is kind, loving and patient while at the same time being in charge. She has provided excellent care for our dog when we have had her care for her during our absence. She carefully follows instructions for feeding, exercise and "business trips" outside. She has a knack for developing good relationship with dogs in very little time. She is reliable, dependable and would be an excellent companion for your dog.

I have a fenced in back yard that is pretty large. My children love to go outside to throw the ball/toys with our dog and would also love to with any new dogs to come to our home! We also have a nice quiet neighborhood that is perfect for taking dogs for a walk. I am also familiar with ecollars and the commands that off leash training does with their dogs as we had our dog trained with them about a year ago and still implement what they have taught him and us.

Information Kristina R. would like to know about your pet
Things I would most need to know is how they will react to small children and having a larger high energy dog around. My German Shepherd is just newly turning 2 so he is still very playful. He has loved every dog he’s met big and small, although the small dogs have seemed more afraid of him so he just gave her space. Would need to know how they react to people coming to the door, are they escape artist, how are they on walks, are they used to being let into the backyard to use the bathroom or are they leash walked?
A typical day
A typical day would be playing in my yard along with my dog, myself, and/or my children. I have stimulation treat puzzles that my dog loved to do. Weather permitting we do go for walks but for safety of my children and dogs it would be only around my neighborhood unless we drove to the dog park near my house.

Dog care fits into my daily routine because I am always home with my children and 1 dog. My husband is also currently working from home still due to covid so he also is around to help out a lot more then he could when he was out of the house for work.
