I love making new furry friends!

Pet care experience

I am a teacher so I get off work a little earlier and have a few more vacation days for those with a more rigid work schedule. I also love being active, so play time outside with your dog is easy and fun for me! Long walks are my specialty and I have easy access to transport for visiting parks! I grew up with a dog and now frequently dog sit for neighbors and my sister. My sister has two young golden doodles who have lots of energy and need much attention and guidance. I make sure to walk them at least twice a day when I stay with them for exercise and an energy release. They have a specific eating schedule I stick to, and usually spend a few hours playing before taking naps. I also have two cats at home who love to play with feathers and laser pointers and absolutely love snuggles.

Our dogs per their bios eat every morning approx 7, and afternoon approx 3-5. They were left their first day from 10 am to 6:30 pm with zero potty breaks. They were not fed with any consistency and were completely taken off of their schedules. The 2nd day they were left without afternoon food until 9pm. The following day 8pm. A man I do not know was let into my home without me giving any permission. The first day our tv was left on and loud and our French bulldog became stressed. I did address this and this was not done anymore. Since being home we are having to re train our puppy as he has started going into our front room and pottying. He has never done this before. We paid extra for this puppy to be taken care of. Biggest mistake I made was tipping Kristina before I saw the job she did. We felt powerless while on vacation and will think very long and hard before ever using this service again.

We had Kristina watch our 2 dogs in our home for a few days and she did great! The dogs were well cared for and we will definitely hire her again.

Information Kristina W. would like to know about your pet

I would like to know his or her schedule and any special needs he or she may have. I would also like to know the activities that they enjoy or the triggers for major stress.

A typical day

Tug o War is my favorite game to play and walks at the nature park are the best! Dogs love it because it is so open and teeming with life. I also live in a house of 18 dog lovers so if your dog needs some extra love, I have easy access to cuddles and attention.
