Are they reactive? Do the show signs of aggression towards other animals or people they don’t know. I do not have any breed preferences, I like ALL types of dogs and animals!

There are many fun activities your pets and I can get into! We can go for long stimulating walks or runs. Or we can stay inside to play games and relax together while getting some loving pets and scratches.

Pet care experience

I am a medical student who loves to play and care for animals. I have been caring for all types of animals for the past 10 years, including but not limited to dogs, cats, bunnies, fish, hedgehogs, etc. I have personal experience caring and training my dog who was diagnosed with glaucoma which caused her to become blind in one eye. This means that I have to administer eye drops into her eye every night. I have trained her to go to her bed and sit patiently to allow me to input her eye drops peacefully in an exchange for a treat. In high school I also helped train puppies to become guide dogs for the blind. I am able to care for wild and rambunctious dogs to relaxed and care-free dogs. With these special skills and personal experiences, I will be able to ensure that your dog is cared for as if they are my own. I understand that dogs are a huge part of your family and will do my best to make sure they are treated with love.

Kristina was SO helpful watching our dog while we were out of town. She was friendly, respectful, and communicative. I would 100% rebook her/recommend her services to friends!
